He is the best brain living in this planet who can explain so clearly about Vedant. ❤️🙏
Sarvapriyananda ji smile like god see me
I'm glad to have stumbled upon Swami Sarvapriyananda's talks. He lays it out in such a clear and concise way that even I who know almost nothing about vedanta and indian philosophy get it. Thank you, Swami!
அற்புதமான விளக்க உரை.நனறி மகராஜ்
Jai Sri Ramakrishna Jai Sri Ramakrishna Jai Sri Ramakrishna Jai Sri Ramakrishna Jai Sri Ramakrishna
I am just amazed my ancestors were discussing such deep philosophy thousands of years ago. Haven't seen another philosophy contemporary or otherwise which is so comprehensive and far reaching.
Im always thinking of recent times. These people were light years ahead of us in awareness, intellect; and I'm I'm beginning to accept that they were even more technologically advanced (depending on how you define technological success)
My one of the most respectful swami sarvapriyananda who clearly speaks Vedanta philosophy for everybody.
Well said, my friend ;-)
I've existed 67 years in this lifetime waiting for this moment of clarity...Thank you Swami.!
Just one year less than you, Mario. Long wait, but worth it
I recommend you to read but if u ‘WANT’ to, go upanishad ‘MUKHYA’ upanishad which are 10, available for free
Upanishad are Solace of my life & death
-Arthur Schopenhauer
I got the buzz when I was 22
Very easy to understand
Congratulations
सहत्र प्रणाम स्वामीजी,
Superb explanation
Thank you very much!
Agree. 'Hand in front of the projector' example was genius! Swamiji is a blessing.
binod
In India, we need many people like you to teach Vedas, Upanishads....the eternal truths....
Such people are needed everywhere on this planet!
+Aurelio Yuga yes agreed, but first that should start from india especially Hindus. ..most of Hindus now a days interested towards modern life rather spiritual....they forgot the true wisdom of their ancestors due to British and muslims rule for centuries...
Bhanu Chandar I see your point. It is sad that the rich and beautiful Hindu tradition has to 'compete' with 'Western' materialism and Western lifestyle nowadays.
I wouldn't call it 'Muslim' rule. I would call it 'so-called' Muslim rule. Because they were/are not real Muslims. They were interested in power, money, etc. A real Muslim is someone who has surrendered his will to Allah/God and lives a peaceful, joyful, loving life. A true Muslim is as fantastic as a true Hindu or a true Christian. The problem is that far too many people in each religion don't care about God or their prophet, but they only care about their ego, their social approval, their fears, their greed,... So to me these people are not 'Muslim' or 'Hindu' or 'Christian', they are just people who are on a big ego trip without understanding what religion is really about.
+Aurelio Yuga seems you are in fantasy brother.you just mentioned the meaning of Muslim but in reality who is true muslim as per quran? throuh whom quran is revealed?
Muhammed 1. who strictly oppose idol worship without knowing concept of idol worship.
2. no tolerance with other religions (there is no God except Allah and muhammad is final messanger (himself revealed)
3. physical relationship with child bride ayesha(when muhammad met ayesha first time, she was playing with swing and dolls and his age is >50)
4. again, physical relationship with adopted sons wife and married her
5. muslim can marry upto 4 wifes, himself married I think 9
6. concept of paradise and hell aproach start with blind faith and die with blind faith, no self realisation
7. animals are created for human being not like they are part and parcel of god.
there are lot more.
how can his followers can tolerate with others interms of spiritual life by following prophet.
I request you to research deeply into it if you already know correct me if I am wrong.
Bhanu Chandar Hello Bhanu.
People just don't get what the true message of holy books is. Christians don't get the deeper meaning of the bible, Muslims don't get the deeper meaning of the Quran, Hindus don't get the deeper meaning of the Bhagavad Gita,...
In my opinion every holy book shows you or give hints to union with God. The problem is that people don't understand what is written. They just take it literally or historically. Instead they should take it metaphorically, symbolically, etc
.
Much of what is written in the Holy Books is meant for the inner world. Analogies, symbols, metaphors help you describe the inner world, because the inner world and deep spiritual experiences are hard to describe.
I am not a Muslim and I see the stupidity of 'so-called' Muslims as you also do. However the problem is not the Quran or Prophet Muhammad, it is the ignorance of so-called Muslims!!!
If you want to understand any Holy Book you've to get advice from spiritual masters; from those who understood the deeper meanings of the Holy Books. You have to meditate and work on yourself.
If you want to understand the Bible, learn from Christian Mystics and Saints (Meister Eckhart, Saint Francis of Assisi, Padre Pio, etc.).
If you want to understand the Bhagavad Gita, learn from great Yogis (e.g. Paramahansa Yogananda and countless others).
If you want to understand the Quran, learn from Sufi Masters (e.g. MR Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, Idries Shah,etc).
So Bhanu, I can see your points. However if I might recommend you something, then read some books written by Sufi Masters and meditate on them. You will then see that every religion is the same, every religion points you to God. Every religion! Islam, too!
In course of my practices, I went through a period of deep suffering, after becoming aware of the contents of my mind (the contrast between the good, the bad and the ugly). I struggled to come to terms with how my mind could have, along with the most sublime and pure thoughts, also ugliness and crassness. After a few years of constant pain of this sort, where I was unable to even speak to people properly, realization finally dawned - I am not my mind, I am not my body. I wish I had found then, this lecture, or a teacher like Swamiji who could elucidate this subject so beautifully. I hope people who are on this path take the time to really view this and other lectures by Swamiji. It is the Brahman itself, revealing itself through these lectures.
Deep Gratitude and love.

Guru:Saranam 🌹🙏
Ever grateful for this talk. Indebted to Swamiji for bringing about such clarity on the subject with beautiful examples and explanations.
Well said. So simple. Im following the verses
Pranam to swami for his lucid explanation
What a speaker he is beyond excellence
Can any devotees of the Ashram please compile all the talks of Swami Sarvapriyanandaji and publish it in volumes of books? The published articles must contain his talks exactly as he talks, with the quotations he uses, the jokes and the stories he narrates. It would help hundreds of people.

Tqq Guruji

This is a most enlightening talk I love listening to your talks so full of clarity on the ultimate truth . Thank you and bless you Swamiji.
Wish the sound system was better, it sounds a bit muffled...
Very Very thankful for great knowledge swami ji 🙏🏻
Swami Sarvapryananda is a brilliant teacher and it is always such a pleasure listening to him. I wonder, however, why he did not emphasize on the apparent difference between human consciousness and pure consciousness. The latter, being the ultimate nature of everything there is, associating itself with the human form allows the human being to go through a human life experience out of which human consciousness gradually arises. This human consciousness being based on human experience is naturally limited and it always remains linked in some way to the experience itself. Pure consciousness on the other hand, being the basis of everything there is, cannot be limited in any way and cannot be linked to any particular human experience either. Human consciousness as a worldly experience is therefore temporary and impermanent and must under no circumstances be confounded with pure consciousness. One is the sunlight reflected by the moon and the other is the sunlight itself.
I am skeptical about him. I consider Jaggi as a motivational speaker
Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev is one of the greatest human beings of all time, maybe the greatest of all time! I'm sure in a couple of centuries he will have the status of a Buddha or a Jesus. To me Sadhguru is Greatness Itself.
+Aurelio Yuga sadguru jaggi vasudev is a yogic master...he doesn't have idea about vedas, geeta etc...he has some different interpretation about spiritual life...I have seen plenty of his videos....some times he speak false based on his experience....but advaita is a ultimate philosophy that swamy is speaking in this video....
sri. Jaggi Vasudev, no doubt, guides people to understand the vedic principles ,in a simple way.
gives answers to some of our day to day problems; He is a guru. But, pl. don't give the status of Buddha.Pl.
try to study Bhagavat Geeta from an Acharya. Then, you will get sufficient knowledge of the meaning of your existance in this birth;
I was referring to Swami Sarvapriyanada and not Jaggi Vasudev who does not convince me at all. But tell me, Amarnath, what do you think is the greatest crime anyone walking on the spiritual path can commit?
We are blessed to have Swami Sarvapriyanandaji amongst us.
Love your talks Swami Sarvapriyanandaji
sir,,!!u make me absolute understandable, enlightened and intelligently conscious....!! i wish i always listen u once in a day.....and i will meet u once in life ,sir!!!
THIS TALK WAS TRANSFORMING IF HEARD AT A CONCEPTUAL LEVEL. EXPERIENCE THIS TALK AND THE ONE WHO IS EXPERIENCING IT.
Swamiji pranam🙏 with correct example he explains so beautifully 🌷🌹

Jai Ho....Amazing and inspirational...
You are the generator, that generates. You are that which continually provides , " invisible will" the power that generates the sun continually but can not see or know
Thank you swami , blessed are we to learn from your teaching .
Thank you very much Vivekananda Study circle. And my pranams to Swamiji for enlightening on self..
Vedantic method is supported by yogic method. Atma vichaaram can be done once we calm down our mind by yogic method. Beautiful 👌👌
Pranam maharaji
Thank You! Great Teacher!
It is always a pleasure to hear Swami Sarvapriyanand ji. His erudition and mastery over his expression is marvellous.
Shines upon the mind and through the mind ❤
Thanks SWAMIJI. Your discourses are so clear dispersing all darkness. Thanks for knowledge which is much needed in this hour of communalism. Hope many hear you and have a change of heart through knowledge. God bless you.
Excellent presentation of Kena Upanishad and explanation of human consciousness.
Human consciousness is a subjective experience, cannot be studied even with functional MRI and other modalities available in Neuroscience.
Great - I was able to build up my knowledge. Thanks to the people for having this in the youtube
Really just a great cohesive compilation of some of his best particulars. :>
He's doing a lot for the humanity
Feel so blessed to have opportunity to listen to videos of Swami Sarvapriyanandji .
very nice
Thanks a lot Swamiji for this treasure of knowledge
Very intuitive explanation. Liked it very much. One either appreciates Advaita instantly like a bulb exploding in the mind or never does - there are no two ways about it.
Thanks
Welcome
If we end up what we really are then pure consciousness in its infinite natural Self will be all that remains.
What brilliance !
I feel blessed to hear him and to be able to read upnishds.
Very intuitive experience and insightful lecture
superb..... at par
Om
What a great teacher he is and teaches in such a simple way so we’ve the best understanding.
My question will be , if consciousness is enabling the eye to see,ear to hear & so on then how about a person who’s having eye but can’t see or have mouth and voice but can’t talk etc...what happened to that person‘ s conscious so that they’re different than us. Karma comes in picture here but spiritually how will we understand and define
this?
We all are spiritual beings having human experience. Whether body functions or not Or whether body is alive or dead, whether mind functions properly or not, conciousness(atman) remains unaffected, unchanged.
Grateful 🙏
🥰💙🌊🕯
🙏
Vedas are the best knowledge
Very scientific approach to understand mind body duality. Thank you Sir .
what I understand is the Consciousness alone exist and the world we see around us is a illusion created by Consciousness.
Always grateful for his lessons
pranams gurudev
U r outstanding 🙏🙏
1:16:49 one way , vedantic way is vechara understanding to see ourselves apart from the mind separation and that itself helps us to control the mind , the method of vechara ,separating ourselves from the mind and body , then theres the second method the yogic method of concentration and focusing our cognitive capacity on one object and everything else drops out of the field of awareness
we are always blessed by such talks, one thing I always feel is that why in Kena Upanishad such language is used? why not directly spell the word Brahman? it seems to me that the reason is more deep..its not possible to describe Brahman in words..its some thing related to modern philosophy too, like when Wittgenstien observes that limit of ones world is also limit of ones language..however even then Kena seems to make even a step forward..realising something which language fails to describe...
+sudip patra you are bang on... Atman (or Brahman) is incomprehensible through language... It has no form, no qualities and no attributes... what will you say about such a thing using language ?
As Swami jee explained, its the very act of experiencing, the light on the hand which can only be felt but not searched...
+Nikhil Vidhani If we can start seeing our self rather than the objects in front of us than we can realize our self as consciousness whether we are thinking or not thinking, whether we are doing something or not doing anything... the EHSAAS of my presence is the realization of the consciousness.... we should not struck on the words we should see the meaning of the word or the feeling. I need to ask my self in regular intervals whether i was lost in my thoughts or I was aware of the thoughts. i know i can go on and on but still the words can not express the essence of the feeling.... Sirf ehsaas hai ye ruh se mehsoos karo :-)
Vedanta circles around the consciousness
Please can these videoes dubs in hindi so many people are getting benefits of this auspicious knowledge anybody can doing this we are grateful for this kindness actin in favour of us
Wow
the heart knows!
🙏👌💕
It's due to subjective experiences different people are unique. Same piece of cloth is not beautiful for different people.Each individual person's likes is different
🙏
thanks
