The core essence of this lecture is to love selflessly which is really really true. If love is there i think no namaz, puja etc..are to do anything with this wonderful creation
What a fantastic talk! As a kid I had always found Alice in Wonderland to be absurd and today Prof Dr Arindam C has connected it to Yoga Vasishtha! The entire talk is simply so succinctly connected with both the Eastern and Western poets, scientists, writers, authors, philosophers - A standing ovation from my side. Gratitude! 🙏🏼
What an insightful talk by Prof. Arindam Chakrabarti! I feel so full with divine bliss. Just beautiful. Thank you to our beloved Swami Sarvapriyananda for arranging the lecture and the folks at Vedanta NY for the timely upload. Jai Sri Ramakrishna!🙇♂️
Once you listen to prof Chakraborty his Devine energy inters the intellect and one is looking for more of his story telling and teaching. Indeed his a world teacher. Thank you for sharing this teaching 🙏
The intellect of thoughts make every lecture of Prof. Arindam Chakraborty as captivating as a Rabindrasangeet. All of his lectures illuminates the western thoughts in the light of Indian philosophical tradition stirring thoughts in our mind.
a thousand pranams to swami abhyananda and swami sarvapriyananda. a thousand pranams also to other monks of ramkrishna order. prof. chakrabarti's knowledge is fantastic!
This is the first discourse I am listening to of Sri Arindam Chakrabarti. I am eagerly looking forward to listening to him again (mostly this exact one multiple times😀) 🙏🏽
Love this talk by Dr Arindam Chakraborty! Especially how he made time to disappear at least thro' logic, also his explanation of Maya was wonderful. I love this talk so much I listen to it again and again. Thank you Swami Sarvapriyanandji for arranging this event / lecture and to Vedanta society of New York for sharing it on you tube. It's a treat to everyone who listens and is interested in spirituality and philosophy. Pranams.
After studying 4th chapter of Mandukya Karika this lecture is like a soothing breeze ☺☺☺ amazing amazing 🙂🙂 i have no words to express my feeling towards such great scholars and Swami ji, who are guiding us last years 😇😇 all words fall apart at the moment of expression, like Present time fall apart when split into nonexistent future and past 😇😇 nevertheless, even though we are in a dream (as Swami quotes another Swamiji's words) never forget to pay respect to your teachers 🙂🙂🙂 and thank them for trying to in-lighten us 🙂🙂 thank you thank you thank you🙂🙂🙂
listening to this talk over and over , professor is just outstanding in explaining such great knowledge in such beautifully simple way. The last part of the talk about selfless love is most inspiring to me.
You don't know Him well....His Master's name is Sitaram Das Omkarnathdev..... first read Sitaram's literature a bit...then u will come to know where Prof. Arindam Chakrabarty belongs.... Regards
No need to compare, as it puts one above the other, - every soul is an individual and unique experience of God himself, and so there is a different fragrance with each soul.

Itz always a delight to listen to Prof. Arindam. His explanation of Swami Vivekanand's Philosophy along with many other eminent philosophers from his own perspective is absolutely amazing. Swami Atmapriyanandji reminds me of Swami Ranganathan. Absolutely superfluous & unfaltered delivery.
Once Swami Vivekananda was asked to talk about the love between Krishna and the Gopikas. He declined to talk about it saying people whose minds have traces of lust will never understand this type of love. They think love equates to a physical attraction. The relationship between Krishna and Gopikas was very, very different than what is ordinarily depicted.
I totally agree - but people understand to the level of their consciousness, culture and experience... Love of Gopikas to Krishna is the highest bhakti, and it brings that love to Earth as a fractal of divine love to be present among people, not to get completely lost in the maya. (one aspect of that love)
1. DREAM - There can be criteria to determine what is real and what is dream but you can never deny the possibility that the current state is a dream. If you don't like this dream, kill it with another dream. 2. REALITY - This world, dream or otherwise, is i) undeniable and ii) illogical. 3. LOVE - What is the most intelligent way of living in a world that is illogical and undeniable at once? - i) live fearlessly, ii) let your beloved world be free and that sets you free of the world while being in the world, and iii) live without any expectation from the beloved world as any lover should of his/her beloved.
yes there are some lectures available.... His master's name is Shree Sitaram Das Omkarnathdev....u can get to know about him on the internet as well. Regards
A huge havoc stormed my mind...what it can be named...analytical spirituality..but the end motivate towards lover Vivekananda, I won't say i understood...but definitely i felt... unintelligible??then i am happy to be stupid... It is definitely, loving.... Now in 2024 i am listening the mandukya,with karika,and just entered into second chapter.., Yes and time is unreal....
It is wonderful to hear your voice again, Arindam. We met at some of the Vedanta conferences at Miami U. Of Ohio & perhaps in Trinidad for the conference there. We discussed our shared love of YV.
I find myself coming back to this video every few months. Some hidden gem on TH-cam. Every time I watch this video, there is some deeper level philosophy aka reality that I get to know.
A very engrossing presentation by Arindam ji indeed💐. Wonder whether there is something similar in where Arindam ji has addressed the "question of Consciousness in Vedant" too 🤔
Wow. Such a fascinating talk; Prof. Chakrabarti really churned my mind into looking beyond the obvious reality/dream; the part where he discusses about "Time" (48:15 to 53:48) is actually so profound. Thank You team of VNY for organizing this talk and making it available to the world. And of course Thank You Google/TH-cam.
"there is only one boat, one ferry, which takes us across this ocean of suffering we call our life/ one ferry, one boat: and that is love, and that is love, and that is love" - Swami Vivekananda (1:16:50). . . "in this world, if you are thinking about utility maximization, and productivity, you are not loving" - Vivekananada (1:00:24). . . "only one thing is fearless: loving without any reason" (1:15:36). . . "so let your self be destroyed, and let your entire heart become a cremation ground, and the Divine Mother Shama, let her dance there" - Swami Vivekananada (1:23:33)
Mind performs all such gymnastics mentioned by prof. Arindam until relization of cause effect and logic breaks. Very taxing process, kudos to professor for continuing it 🙏
Amazing. Heart is full. Cannot say causeless love as it has emerged listening to these 2 great lovers while inside always feels only this gives trupti as taught by my Guru Prabhushri Swami Amar Jyoti. May we all be blessed with this triangle of love so beautifully expressed by Swami Vivekananda without fear without cause without expectation. Ģrateful pranams and thanksgiving.
Good to see he mentioning Zeno's paradox and differential calculas. The concept of the present, being and becoming has a lot to do with fractional differences. A whole lot of applied mathematics and physics research goes into studying Fractional Differential Equations which have memory inbuilt by construction.
Maya magic happened the whole day for me here in south Africa.Unbelievable except for me.Greatest thank you from my small cell phone on the kitchen table.
There is this dialogue in a movie where the man proposes his loving lady saying, 'you complete me'. Played by Tom Cruise. This three people did that to me on this day. It's very difficult to explain paradoxes like cause and effect. I wouldn't say I understood totally cauze some part of understanding demands living the understanding
Beautiful....speechless but want to say something. I have listened a lot of lecture about vedanta,non dualism etc etc. Sometime it seems spirituality is very easy to understand. Sometime I doubt have i understood a llittle bit....!!! সবে মাত্র বুঝতে শুরু করেছি বলে মনে হয়,অমনি অন্য আর একজন renowned ব্যক্তির বক্তিতা আগের সব কিছু উল্টে পাল্টে দেয়.যেন মনে হয় বুঝেছি কিন্তু পরক্ষণে মনে হয় কি বুঝলাম!!!!!মাঝে মাঝেই এমন ও অনেকেরই নিশ্চই হয় যে দেহে কোথাও চুল্কাছে বলে মনে হয় কিন্তু সেই স্থানে চুল্কতে গেলে মনে হয় না এখানে নয় অন্য কোথাও. শেষে সারা দেহে চুলকে ও সে বিশেষ স্থানটির হদিস পাওয়া যায়না এবং চুলকে তৃপ্তি ও পাওয়া যায়না. ঠিক এরকমই অবস্থা হয় আমার spirituality এর বিষয়ে,বিশেষ করে কেউ যখন "WHAT IS TIME?" ঐ ব্যপারটা explain করেন. এই ভদ্রলোক ও দারুন বল্লেন.মনে হলো বুঝলাম. কিন্তু পরক্ষণে মনে হলো........ May be time causality er মধ্যেই ফেঁসে গেছি. Anyway really really love listening swami Swarboprionanda.Today got the opportuanity to listen two more renowned persons.Dhnyobad
Prof. Chakrabarti, could you please include the quotes of the books where you find that Swamiji Vivekananda was fond of marxism. I am very interested because I didn't find that statement in his Complete Works. When Swamiji predicted the government of workers he didn't say that it was going to be better. That was just a prediction like his others predictions of the first world war and the liberation of India.
ভেবে দেখলাম আমি যাদের ভালোবাসি বলে মনেকরি তাদের সত্যিই ভালোবাসি কিনা জানার জন্য তিনটে প্রশ্ন করতে হবে ১) আমাকে ভয় পান কিনা ২) আমার দিক থেকে কোনও চাহিদা আছে এরকম অনুভব করেন কিনা ৩) তাঁরা কি মনে করেন যে আমার প্রতি কোনও অনুভূতি না থাকলেও আমি ভালোবাসবো? ৩য় প্রশ্নটি নিজেকে করেই জানা যাবে যে আমরা কেউ কাউকে ভালোবাসি না। (exception থাকতে পারে) অন্যদিকে আমি যাকে ভালোবাসি না বলে মনে করি, যার প্রতি তেমন টান অনুভব করি না সম্ভবত তাকেই ভালোবাসি। তার কাছে চাহিদা নেই, সে আমাকে ভয় পায় না, সে যাই করুক আমার কিছু যায় আসে না। এটা একটা প্যারাডক্সের মতো লাগছে। আমার অনুভব হল সম্ভবত আমি নিজেকে ছাড়া আর কাউকেই ভালোবাসি না(?) কিন্তু তার থেকেও বড় প্রশ্ন----------------------- চেষ্টা করে কি ভালোবাসা যায়????????????????
My question is Arindam ji a Gyani or Vigyani ? This classification was made by Sri Ramakrishna. Read the gospel of Sri Ramakrishna to understand more about it! Gyani = knowledge Vigyani= experience or direct experience of God! Even listening to him you become enlightened!
Jiun, a Shingon master, was a well-known Sanskrit scholar of the Tokugawa era. When he was young he used to deliver lectures to his brother students. His mother heard about this and wrote him a letter: “Son, I do not think you became a devotee because you desired to turn into a walking dictionary for others. There is no end to information and commentation, glory and honor. I wish you would stop this lecture business. Shut yourself up in a little temple in a remote part of the mountain. Devote your time to meditation and in this way attain true realization.”
Good advice, but it is also true that, once one realizes something profound, there is an urge to share it with the others... It is how God explores and contemplates about Himself...
interesting lecture. while the metaphor is useful, reality (as we popularly understand the term) is not a dream in the typical sense. much of that which occurs in the dream state is fickle and passing, while 'reality' has far greater consistency. As Dr Chakrabarti notes, he affords realists the position that C = set of given values. Furthermore what do we put this specialised dream (reality) in contradistinction to? ie. What is the true and ultimate state of being? The philosophy points to something beyond creation, with desciptors like an undescribable 'emptiness' or fullness, however you wish to consider it. so there is no basis to constitute a dream as a dream based on an true but ambiguous state. I think we should also unpack the idea of a dream state, as some can be fickle, some can be inspired, and it seems to differ drastically depending on say meditative/spiritual or such other capacity.
I think the physical reality is a dream too, but persistent one, because it is physical and not astral. I had a funny experience recently - I had a sweet dream with Shirdi Sai Baba (part one) and then after waking up and going back to sleep I had a dream with my Guru and I told him "Swami-ji, I just had a sweet dream with Shirdi Baba" - so one dream in relevance to the the other is more real? NO! Is this reality is more real? NO! - it is just different levels of dream of God, playing a dream through each soul's experience .....
Wow!!! "The main attraction towards something is 'you don't have it' and that attraction is lost when you have it". Truly deep... 👍 👌
The core essence of this lecture is to love selflessly which is really really true. If love is there i think no namaz, puja etc..are to do anything with this wonderful creation

Most toughest topic Vedanta is beautiful and simple way delivered to us by Swamiji. Pronam Swami Sarvapriyanandaji. I am indebted to you.
listening to this talk over and over , professor is just outstanding in explaining such great knowledge in such beautifully simple way. The last part of the talk about selfless love is most inspiring to me.
I might have listened to it about 20 times. What a lecture it is.
Thank you Swamiji! This was quite an advanced talk about love from the point of swami Vivekananda, which is very different. Loved it!!
Arindam might be a great scholar but listening to Sarvapriyanand swami is really blissful,can experience the light of enlightned being swamiji.

Yes, eerything talk I've heard by him is outstanding. Namaste
I am listening to him for the first time.... I "think" I am in "dream" of world. ❤🙏🙏.
One of the best lectures. Thanks to all for sharing the knowledge
Freedom, no give and take and no fear … love triangle 💕… Gratitude gratitude swamiji and Vedanta society 🙏🙏🙏
Last part of the talk is extraordinary.
"All of this might be God's dream"... really enjoyed the lecture. Thank you V NY
"And if you attend enough lectures of Swami Sarvapriyananda, you might realise that you are the Dreamer God...."
is it me or this lecture sounded more melodious with those vocal cords..what a profound teaching ..and beautifully selected examples..
What a brilliant man is this Prof. Arindam Chakrabarti!!! Does he have any other talks on youtube, lectures? I just loved every word he said.
yes there are some lectures available....
His master's name is Shree Sitaram Das Omkarnathdev....u can get to know about him on the internet as well.

Outstanding talk!!!! What an honour to listen to this…
A huge havoc stormed my mind...what it can be named...analytical spirituality..but the end motivate towards lover Vivekananda,

It is definitely, loving....
Now in 2024 i am listening the mandukya,with karika,and just entered into second chapter..,
Yes and time is unreal....
This is superlative. "Shreshtha". Such profound knowledge explained in simple words having such freshening humour to keep away inattentiveness.
It is wonderful to hear your voice again, Arindam. We met at some of the Vedanta conferences at Miami U. Of Ohio & perhaps in Trinidad for the conference there. We discussed our shared love of YV.
54:00 timestamp is the reason why i keep coming back to this video again and again
Thank you for this timestamp.
I too
Thank you ⭐️🌙❤️
I find myself coming back to this video every few months. Some hidden gem on TH-cam. Every time I watch this video, there is some deeper level philosophy aka reality that I get to know.
Same here, this and Swami Sarvapriyanandas lecture on Kashmir Shaivism
I do the same, it touches the deep core of the soul, as the soul recognizes the truth...
An honor to hear this
1) love does not fear; 2) love gives freedom to the loved; 3) love does not expect anything
A very engrossing presentation by Arindam ji indeed💐.
Wonder whether there is something similar in where Arindam ji has addressed the "question of Consciousness in Vedant" too 🤔
Even the teachers don’t get it. It’s about transcending karma by leaving the physical limitations and entering the freedom of limitless imagination.
Pranam🙏🏼
These kinds of lectures make you miss Swami Sarvapriyananda :)

ভেবে দেখলাম আমি যাদের ভালোবাসি বলে মনেকরি তাদের সত্যিই ভালোবাসি কিনা জানার জন্য তিনটে প্রশ্ন করতে হবে
১) আমাকে ভয় পান কিনা
২) আমার দিক থেকে কোনও চাহিদা আছে এরকম অনুভব করেন কিনা
৩) তাঁরা কি মনে করেন যে আমার প্রতি কোনও অনুভূতি না থাকলেও আমি ভালোবাসবো?
৩য় প্রশ্নটি নিজেকে করেই জানা যাবে যে আমরা কেউ কাউকে ভালোবাসি না। (exception থাকতে পারে)
অন্যদিকে আমি যাকে ভালোবাসি না বলে মনে করি, যার প্রতি তেমন টান অনুভব করি না সম্ভবত তাকেই ভালোবাসি। তার কাছে চাহিদা নেই, সে আমাকে ভয় পায় না, সে যাই করুক আমার কিছু যায় আসে না। এটা একটা প্যারাডক্সের মতো লাগছে।
আমার অনুভব হল সম্ভবত আমি নিজেকে ছাড়া আর কাউকেই ভালোবাসি না(?)
কিন্তু তার থেকেও বড় প্রশ্ন-----------------------
চেষ্টা করে কি ভালোবাসা যায়????????????????

Listened rapturously. Opened new vistas but is there any other talk , as nothing much of Yog Vashishta.
My question is Arindam ji a Gyani or Vigyani ?
This classification was made by Sri Ramakrishna. Read the gospel of Sri Ramakrishna to understand more about it! Gyani = knowledge
Vigyani= experience or direct experience of God! Even listening to him you become enlightened!
How about a few more options too ?😁
He is neither.
Profound!

Death will end this dream but what and where will we end up in when that happens? Will we either think or dream that we are dead.
Jiun, a Shingon master, was a well-known Sanskrit scholar of the Tokugawa era. When he was young he used to deliver lectures to his brother students.
His mother heard about this and wrote him a letter:
“Son, I do not think you became a devotee because you desired to turn into a walking dictionary for others. There is no end to information and commentation, glory and honor. I wish you would stop this lecture business. Shut yourself up in a little temple in a remote part of the mountain. Devote your time to meditation and in this way attain true realization.”

I had a funny experience recently - I had a sweet dream with Shirdi Sai Baba (part one) and then after waking up and going back to sleep I had a dream with my Guru and I told him "Swami-ji, I just had a sweet dream with Shirdi Baba" - so one dream in relevance to the the other is more real? NO! Is this reality is more real? NO! - it is just different levels of dream of God, playing a dream through each soul's experience .....
