I have never seen Swamiji at a loss to answer any question. He always has an explanation for even the deepest, most philosophical inquiry. His mind is so sharp and acute! I am so lucky that I live in NY where he is the president of the Vedanta Center - I can go hear him speak several times a week. Jai Swamiji. Thank you for your generosity and teachings.
You really are lucky. I wish I had a vedanta centre where I could purify my consciousness..
Lucky indeed ...I so wish the same
You are lucky. and blessed. Wish I could hear him in person.
Love you

Thanks to IIT Kanpur for making this available to neurologists like me. I learned a lot from these talks than from neurology texts or neurology practice or quantum mechanics books which is another topic of my interest
Thank you dearest Swamiji and all individuals at IIT making these videos available to general public. I love you all so much for doing this.
i liked this comment after
5 years
The most profound and voracious orator of vedanta... Love and respect to this man
27:00 --- Italian actress about annamayi kosha being body ( example pasta).
28:00 -- Deep sleep question by student.
33:34 -- Scientists define consciousness as defined by conscious events hence on the level of the mind vritti complex
35:34 -- Brain and mind are not the same ( modern science doesn't describe how mind is generated by the brain).
37:08 -- How do you prove there is pure consciousness existing ?
50:00 -- intrinsic or external . Example of boiling veggies with heat and heat being intrinsic
1:00:00 -- Location of I even for people like Bhagat singh . keep that which gives happiness. You keep I .
I am a late comer to Swamiji's lectures which I have started listening to on youtube. In fact I have never been a youtube listener. I feel I have wasted my life in watching and reading politics, biographies and other documentaries that are shown in our national TVs. I never ever realised that you can get so much information and also can listen to classical music by past and present artists. May be my realisation has been a bit too late in my life. But I am amazed at the prodigious knowledge of the Swamiji that is evident in his lectures and his fluency in four languages that he can skit from one to another without any effort. May God give him a long life with good health so that he can awaken the spiritual aspect of our Hindu religion on many more for many years to come.. Thank you Swamiji. You are my Guru and my sincere pranam to you.
Such subtle teaching, expressed so vividly..SatChitAnanda.
This is as clear as it gets...for me. I am lucky to have come across this. Thank you very much. Om Satcitananda
My respect Swami Sarvapriyananda Maharaj!!
You are making a difference in me Swamiji! Hope to hear you in live someday!
This guy, amazing teacher for young adults.

EXCELLENT RAM KRISHNA MISSION . REGARDS ALL GREAT PHILOSOPHERS AND PREACHING FOR THE MANKIND.

I have great fortunate to attend many classes at Ramakrishna Mission Sikshanamandira, Belure Math, Howrah in the classromm of P.G. Diploma in Guidance and Councelling class-in the sessin 2014-15.
Sairam ❤️ examples given are so beautiful-- should be taught in schools-- as children-- having understood- could live fruitful lives-like Gurukul of ages ago-- slight change-- Guru going to different schools few times in a year.Thank you Swamiji & Sri Ramakrishna-Vivekananda- Vedanta society -- on behalf of every existence intrinsic & otherwise
Sincere thanks to Swami ji ... You make the ancient teachings so easy for us to comprehend
Swamiji so eloquent and brings it so clear for understanding -Great Teacher of Vedanta. I listen to his Talks over and over🙏🏻🙏🏻
never been bored,tired and overwhelmed by Swamiji's deliberations...I feel blessed to be able to watch/listen to him.
Thanks a lot Swamiji!! Your video clippings of Advaita Vedanta have cleared many doubts regarding spirituality and how we are Brahman and Sat chit Anand which you have so beautifully explained in your videos .Your videos have become my daily hearings
Thanks for your awesome explanations!!

Wow ! Listening to this talk evaporated all my doubts about #Witness #Sakshi. Am at bliss. The very proof that witness or pure consciousness is that we wake up after deep sleep, so there is never discontinuity and death. The best talk i ever heard on #SatChitAnand. Thank you so much Swamiji. Love you !
Thank you great lecture revives once faith in the scientificness of the Hindu religion
Mind blowing lecture.I really appreciate the genius of Swami Ji. He is very clear & effective.
Yay Swami Ji! Thanks for your inspiration...and help w Christ
Namaste...
Rejoice
What is beyond perception is difficult to put in words.... But from time immemorable it is probably consistently been done to make the human to feel it.. May be just like make a child to understand "1 and 0."... Great efforts🙏
Profound lecture. For initial stage of study of Vedanta and Advait philosophy, I feel, multiple viewing with faith and concentration may keep one tagged with such detailed exposition. Pronams to Swamiji with reverence.
Krishna Kumar Agrawal
Thank you so much for this amazing video. This helps a lot in understanding the very complex things about life.
Fantastic Vedanta Class......
Awesome, thank u so much Swami ji
Great and glorious presentation on Pure Consciousness which is eternal and blissful ! Thank you Dear Swami ji !!
19:00 -- Story about Raja Janak and dream and Real world.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Pranams Swamiji. Thank you so much 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
An unchanged viewer is the Consciousness but on reflections sees objects in wakefulness or in dreams but sees only darkness when there is no reflectors.
Swamiji, I can't thank u enough for bringing us this knowledge of 'who we are", especially thru TH-cam.
However, I have an observation that could be concerning everyone.
You rightly teach that we are Consciousness that illumines the mind and thru our senses produces our experiences. So if the mirror is defective, the reflection too becomes faulty. While the illumining consciousness is pure, the mind that generates the experiences could be or rather in most of our cases impure, thus the pain n suffering.
If the objective of Vedanta is to end our suffering, we got to concentrate on disciplining and cleansing our minds. But in about 25-30 of your Videos I have studied, you end up in explaining who we are and abruptly stop. I even felt that you concentrate more on the source of this knowledge like you introduce the author, you recite the versus, you talk about your Order - while this is good, more than half of the time is spent on this, than the knowledge itself.
Secondly, you say that it is the Subtle body that reincarnates and carries forward the carmic debts, therefore, our focus, I feel, should be on the purification of the mind, thus seek freedom from suffering.
Thank you Swamiji, for touching on this topic in your future videos.
Swamijee has tried to explain the subject but we can not grasp it. Because the subject is very difficult to understand
My heartiest respect and pranam to Swamijee.
Amazing lecture sir... I enjoyed it
Excellent👍👏 🙏🌸🍁My pranam 🙏🙏🙏
Sadar pranam Poojay Swami ji
30/08/2023. Wednesday.🕉️🇮🇳🙏🙏 Extraordinary Excellent Explanation 🇮🇳🙏🙏 Swami Jee 🌹🌹
Thank you Swami ji again and again 🙏🙏
pranams gurudev
Its very nice, Thanks Swamiji :)
Simply amazing :)
Wow. What a profound knowledge. Why is this not taught in med schools
Awesome
Pranaam maharaj🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much Swamiji 🙏🙏
Awesome👏✊👍👍😎👏
When swami ji has lectured in the IIT, the most prestigious institutions in India, what more is left for him to attend. The world except the institutions in India and other parts of the world are yet to explore. Is it the same curiosity that made him live in the USA.
Really' really cool
it can be also said as in deep sleep consciousness is there but our mind is completely asleep to experience it and remember it so when we wake up we simply don't remember the experience....jay sambhu..
The river you can not beat into submission but must yield to accept engage and may bend to your expressions...
Thank you ! ❤️
Swami ji , thanks for guiding us towards consciousness.
You always give perfect examples for proving astitva of consciousness .
But a person surrounded by materialistic mind set will seek for materialistic proof.
Will it be proper to ask them to look into proved stories of NDE , REBIRTH . .?
They are investigated by materialistic minds and are derived at the same
conclusion , that there is something indestructible, beyond human life.
Then perhaps it will be 'easy ' to explain unseen,untouchable, etc. Consciousness. ABHIJIT VARTAK.
Thank you Swamiji🙏🙏🙏

Music to my ears... 🎼🎶🎶🎸

1:23:02 -- Malaysian airline example and knowing the thought of a dead passenger.
My dear brother vamshidhar it is b'coz of dynamic power of maya
Very very sweet!!
Namashkar Swamiji!
If one asks who is the "I" here to experience the
"Pure Consciousness" and if Advantic teachings say that it is not
"you" the immortal who is awake right now but the "Samvit"
to experience that there is Samvit because I am Samvit then who exactly
"I" the mortal being is?
Dhanyavad!
i refers to brahman..
refer to Vedanta philosophy for better understanding
The i is an inward reflection projecting unto itself. When you realize the i there is nothing seperate than the i , it is all there is. The entire universe is in a positive potential state like a living cosmos. Har har Mahadeva 🙏
Indians are credited for the zero but remember its also a vital philosophical perspective. The zero removes the one, if something didn’t have any boundaries or limitations it cannot be concluded as one but as zero and zero means nothing. empty and inexistent
🙏 Dhanyavad
Loved the video
Excellent!
Eloquent and profound. Thank you, Swamiji. I am curious though, in Vedantic perspective, is the pure/eternal consciousness the same as the soul of an individual? If not, how do they differ and correlate?
Would like to clarify, if the concept called sub-conscious mind really exists or just technical term? Because, swamiji confirmed that consciousness is same in all the state.
Powerdown9890 Subconcious or superconcious mind os name given by modern science still it is in realm of mind. Conciousness which is called Samvit or Chit is pure conciousness which illumines the activities of mind.
If he can explain what happens to that consciousness after we die..it will make more sense.
Yes. After enlightenment every experience is intense. All joy will get multiplied.
If you have an empty glass jar, is the space inside the jar the same as the space outside the jar or is it different? If the jar is destroyed, what happened to the space inside of it? If I put the glass jar in a car & drive 1000 miles, did the space in the jar also move 1000 miles?
Then you may be satisfied the space inside the jar cannot be distinguished from the space outside the jar……it is all-pervasive, unborn and unceasing. This is the nature of Awareness and is your True Nature.
JGD🌺🌺🌺🙏
🙏🙏🙏
Very good explanation Swamiji.
I have a question if anyone can answer greatly appreciated, why is in the world so much violence and misery if everything is from consciousness which is Brahman.
It's because of "Ignorance".
In Vedanta it's said that we all of the beings are born divine.. but, covered in "Ignorance".. we have to torn apart that "Ignorance" and realize the divinity within..hence, who realizes the divinity within, he's liberated from the sufferings himself and sees another person also as divine, irrespective of the next person realizing himself as divine.
Excellent
What happens during surgical operation. I had once undergone a major operation. Once anesthesia was applied I had lost all senses.I was uttering constantly God 's name
But once the operation was over I got senses. But it seems to me as if my life was cut, and joined again. Still I was murmuring God's name.
the video is not complete please upload video of the same topic.....
Upload more videos like this plsssssss
Pranam to swamy. Today modern science is influenced by so many factors. Mainly commercial/market forces, religious beliefs and so on. The heights of vedant cannot be reached by so called people unless they surrender their bhuddhi purely to Devine practices of Vedas.

If we have attained satchitanand, will we enjoy the Ice cream more than that before enlightment?
Yes. I have not even attained that much, but even though I am diabetic I can say that any ice cream I eat now is much more enjoyable after embarking on a spiritual journey of inquisition and meditation.
In terms of practical human activities and endeavors.. what is the relevance of coming in contact or having direct perception of the witnessing consciousness?
Sebastian Carlo It is like a fish in water, which does everything in water and living it's whole life in water asking the question of what is the relevance of knowing water.Similarly you do everything in consciousness , even if you reply back to me you will do it in consciousness. With out consciousness there is no experience.
Shriram Bhandari
Yes, I agree. However, why should we strive to know this witnessing consciousness... aka "turiya"....? Why make the effort?
Sebastian Carlo The short answer is thatit is what everyone is fundamentally seeking. There are certain fundamental desires from which all other desires are derived. You will 1st have to get present to these fundamental desires. You may ask how do I get present to them. By making the desiring process into a conscious process the way to make it conscious is by finding out why you are having a desire. This is a very ardous task to do since your mind will want to rationalise things away. So you will have to reject all rationalisation at this point and get present to why you are having this desire. Till you get present to this, no matter what you listen to in regards to this subject it is of no use to you.
Shriram Bhandari
Yes.. what you say resonates. In the west we're indocrinated into rationalizing everything.. having reasons for doing things.. I presume this is very much the same in the east nowadays. ..... Get past this desire to rationalize it out and I perceive heightened states of awareness/samadhis/turiya etc etc are inherently empowering and beneficial in every way conceivable.... That said, ego has its own momentum due to conditioning and habits.. Probably requires a combination of things to address it.. i.e., dietary upgrades, asanas, pranayama, meditative practices, etc Back to the drawing board! :)
Sebastian Carlo Yes we go through Karma Yoga or any other meditation and so on. The issue is that we get educated and lose originality. The difference between West and East is only that East sees the existence as a circle hence there is life after life and that there are many big bangs that have happened before and so on. With the West it is linear and hence with a definite beginning and end, any Westerner who accepts the circularity of existence is in my opinion an Easterner even though his skin may be white any Easterner who sees a definite end in my opinion is a Westerner even though his skin is black. Hence East and West are only in the convictions of people and not in the Geography necessarily.
I need this information please help me out
Is there any presentation explaining dualism???
Namashkar Swamiji, surely it was one of the illuminating lecture but it has left some actually many doubts in my mind. Only, if someone can help me in clarifying some of it.
If mind is the only thing via which we experience everything and
in deep sleep we cannot even experience the very existence of pure consciousness
then what is that you mean when you say experiencing the pure consciousness.
Who will experience it? If you say, the pure consciousness is the one that
experience itself then who am “I” (the mortal being) to help it to experience it?
Also what is that “I”, (the mortal being) trying to do by trying
to experiencing the “pure consciousness”. Because "I" being mortal will
never be able to experience the “pure consciousness” because what "I" (the mortal being) possess is the “Maya”.
I hope the question has the clarity because I am a lot confused
so may be the question seem a bit hay way! :P
Thanks.
Please post your doubts here. Your Own SELF will arrange reply.
When you were in deep sleep you did not experienced anything but when you wake up you realised you were in deep sleep. You relaize the existence of deep sleep when you awake. And the relaizesen That existence was consciousness. And for realise your trueself you have to let go all sense organs. You must have to remain zero like not so much happy in happiness not so much sad in sadness not so much excited in excitement only then you can identify your trueself according to geeta. It's just my opinion it can be true or not.
Peace
In deep sleep you have no experience means you have experience of nothing or experience of blankness . Pure conciousness experiences everything.
jay sambhu
Surely am trying to find answer by myself still there is one more thing that I would like to ask.
How can we say that an Advaitan is different from the philosophy of God? What I can sense is it is just trying to give show God using different series of logics but having the same attributes as any other rligion-god has. Both, the other religion's God and an Advaitan's God demand one thing - FAITH. So, if I have faith in some X, Y or Z God or for that matter Pure Consciousness and keeps on persuing it I will have God-experience. So, how is that Advaita offeres something other than what already exists?
Mrugesh Shah
That is why to realise as a living experience there is yoga.
Can we have that handout as pdf

Immortal one can't be empheric
What about those that are deaf ? How can they chant if you are deaf?
you said that in deep sleep there's only consciousness. My question is, how can you prove that logically?..do you have some examples to grasp the concept?...
thanks ...I mean it
+Pietro Marcon Through sadhana and sakshatkar (realization) only you'll know it. Its first person science.
Without YOUR presence during the deep sleep, how can you recall, after waking up, that "you were happy; that you did not know any thing then?" The very fact that one recalls the twin-experience, i.e., "the happiness and not-knowing" of deep sleep predicates that what is absent is the reflected consciousness in the mind, and not the "PURE AWARENESS" (SAT-CHIT), which does not rise or set according as we are awake or sleeping. What rises and sets is the "consciousness reflected in the mind". This is because of the fact that the mind gets dissolved completely in deep sleep.
Once, we wake up from deep sleep, the mind (MANAS) with its associates, namely, the intellect (buddhi), ego (ahamkara) and chitta (mind-stuff, which is the faculty that recalls from the past and imagines the future) wakesup simultaneously - not only wakes up, but also goes through the miseries of the waking state. These facts are experienced by every one every day! That is why the Upanishads (Vedanta) declare that "mind alone is the cause of bondage and liberation"! (Amritabindu Upanishad), Regards,
if the greatest love is for brahman, then who actually loves brahman?
dream is not taken as false when you dream.you take it as false when you wake up.actually you do not sleep at all.you never come to know that you have now started sleeping.on waking up you realise that you were asleep and you had dreamt.who sleeps,the body and mind or consciousness ? await your reply.
Waking, dreaming, deep sleep states are the states of mind. Some acharyas further classify that waking is bodily oriented, dreaming is predominated by mind & causal body predominates the sleeping state. But summarily these three are the states of mind. So during deep sleep mind is not functional or shuts down. Conciousness always remains unaffected, unchanging illuminating, enabling them.
