“True spirituality is seeing everyone with equal vision. Everyone deserves our respect and compassion.”
pravina s Namaste 🙏
Jesus is the only way

Including women. In patriarchy filled Indian society, women aren't treated well, respected with dignity.
@@rprestarri- glad to see his message was heard by you
we are nature. There is no separation. When we nurish the earth, we nurish ourselves.
i am on the way to spirituality and i need people who help me
can u help me
@@nmfifaplayer579meditation is boring we can't do it
It is spelled "nourish"!
@Andrew Spliffilin nuts how much time is enough?
" true spirituaity is to see every living being with equal vision" love it
You can love it but don't let it clutter your mind and consume you
@@darkapothecary4116 very good point
anyone help me in spirituality
@@rahulhowto5827 Visit any Spiritual organization and practice their mantra. It will gradually show its impact.
You can say that, but can you do it?
Thanks to Srila Prabhupada.
I highly regard and respect how calming, neutral, warm, inviting, and inclusive his language and speech is portrayed. It is simply beautiful, powerful, motivational, and awakening.
What's sad is that if this beautiful soul came up to anyone of us on the street and tried to tell us this message without recognizing him. We would just pass him off as crazy and ignore him and get back to our busy lives and be our phones. This world needs more of him
The greatest power of those who are learned and realized is the power of love and the power of forgiveness. - Radhanath Swami
Jesus and Lennon said the same thing. What makes Slavin (poser par excellence) so special?
Is that why he had Sulochan ( and who else ?!? ) murdered in cold blood ?!?
Because of his intense " power of love " ?!?
Exactly . . . Prabhupada had it all figured out even on his death-bed and still he was forgiving right to to the end. Not like these fakes and phonies who ruined the whole ISKCON movement and screwed it up royally. All that's left is an empty carcass of what it once was.
Forgiving ?!?
Prabhupad's last words were " kick the demons in the face " !!!
Thanks. I wasn;t aware of that. Can you point to a reference for that. I would like to read it. I've been looking for a copy of The Guru Business by Sulocana das for a while but don't know where it's avaialble. Any ideas?
I myself is a Christian and I wanted to say...I am agree with this monk....Compassion , Love and Considering others Hunger is a true Religion on Earth....
Remember that we live not simply to the purpose of good works. Our actions are only profitable if we recognize our dependance upon God, lest we grow too proud to recognize that it is only through Him that any good can flow out of us. Our humility should be a result of our understanding of this.
John 15:4-5 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
@@davidperman7517 yes u r 👍
This dude's book "The Journey Within" is the best thing I've read in aaaaages. I highly recommend it
Exactly
Stick to Prabhupadas original teachings. Buy Prabhupadas original unchanged books. This gyu has a very shady history..
Vedic world order care to elucidate..?
No he does not. He is a dharmic person.
You must be the one with a shady history.
I read Radhanath Swamy's book Journey Home and i found in him a great spiritual seeker.
Jake W It's all explained very thoroughly in the documentary Cost of Silence and Iskcon today: Deviants, Pedophiles and Murderers. which exposes these plastic gurus of todays Iskcon on ISKCONspiracy's channel. It is a fact however that a great sinister movement is within our society. - Srila Prabhupada. People Please turn to srila Prabhupada's teachings i beg you!
I really needed to hear this. What a great person.
What a beautiful soul, and such an important message too.
I am an addict in early recovery I needed this today thank you
Me too bro i am struggling alot right now. I wish you the best in your journey man. You can do it!
D G Thx for the kind words and never stop trying that’s the only failure in recovery
@@collateraldamage6918 🙏
@Kellie Galloway thx for the kind words I am 6 days away from 1 year clean still hanging in there
Love
This guy just demonstrated what actually spirituality is: the humanity and compassion towards every life form. Such a blissful personality !!
All souls are equal.
At the very origin ... perhaps ...
But we're far from that now ...
What is a soul?
@@cynic150 You are soul which is neither body nor mind. When we are stuck with our mind which is full of desires and temptations we acquire physical body and suffer in physical world.
@@sb2459 How do you prove that? Do we only suffer? The desire to drink water is not a bad thing!
@@cynic150 If you go deep within self you ll realize it by yourself that you are pure soul which is beyond body and mind. Mind is impure with greed, attachments, ego, desires, anger so the soul doesn't experience peace. Meditation helps surpassing mind and you can experience your pure blissful self. It can be understood thru experience not intellect.
Impressive. Radhanath Swami is a pure soul and a remarkable personality, truly a gift from the Lord to humanity.
This should be the news.
He is also the founder of govardhan Eco village near Mumbai. Very peaceful place to be in this extremely chaotic world
Yes, an amazing place it is. Brings close to mother nature and our true self.
If you have peace inside nothing is chaotic its you who are chaotic and thinks everything is chaotic ..
Sorry if my words hurt but this things I keep saying to myself ..
@@ankitsrivastav9540 dear bro u r correct , but suggestions can be given only when requested or asked for .
@@balajir6028 the person was experiencing something on TH-cam channel .... I m not giving any suggestion ... Its you who r giving suggestions .. Just acting smart
@@ankitsrivastav9540 sorry dear brother ... Please forgive me ..
The best part is that the swami has implemented everything he speaks in Mumbai..
Very nice. Great to see how great saints like Radhanath Swami Maharaj walk the talk and inspire others.
Be sure to ask him about his involvement in the murder of Sulochana dasa in New Vrindavana, West Virginia. He was a close friend of the monster, Kirtananda dasa who ran the community. Lots of lies with this man.
no hes not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg!!!
Foundation of inner peace and Love is the key. Thanks Swami ji
Much love NAMASTE 🙏🏽
All I would say after hearing his talks and reading his latest book - The Journey Within (NYT Best Seller), is that there is great wisdom to learn from spiritual literatures and lives of True saints.
I frequently hear Swami's talks to be focused in true goal of life.
Thanks TEDx for arranging such talks.
i just watched your interview with Tom Bilyea and came to Ted Talks hoping to hear more from you. I love your wisdom and agree with almost all you say here. (One small difference I believe when we have true compassion for another, we don't need to take on what they are feeling. For if we can understand where they stand with love in our hearts, we can still hold them in their true potential of wellness and possibility. In doing so it will serve them best to to move in the direction of what they desire, instead of the absence of it - it may only be in small baby steps, but as long as we can help them climb up the emotional ladder , and allow momentum of thought to build there, they will find what they were seeking was always possible. Kind of like how Dorothy always had the power within in the Wizard of OZ.) I am passionate in connecting mind and spirit with understanding of the new sciences. Science is only beginning to understand what the indigenous have known for thousands of years. All that Radhanath Swami explains here is such a wonderful way for us to lead a joyful life. I have a video that expresses this well which is called "The Power of Our Heart". It may be helpful to those that want a little guidance in tapping into our compassionate loving heart. Blessings to you and others that understand how we are all one in an wonderful world of possibilities.
Excellent.... Very nicely explained .. thanks
The way he speaks is so soothing
God has given the free will to choose in our life. If we make the right choices, we will become a good person in life. Wisdom by spiritual literatures and saints help us to make the right choice. Wonderful Talk!
Thank you! I’ve never met another God believer that understood this. Thank you for this.
Well put! I love how deep he gets. He knows how to call it out. It's hard to listen some times but we need that spoonful of medicine!
Such genuine wisdom shared here... the best way to establish the spiritual connection is to understand that every living creature is the loving child of that supreme father. With that in mind it seems easy to treat every other living being may it be human or animal, as our own loving brother or sister. The Srimad Bhagvad Gita verse that he quotes is also serves the purpose of substantiating the wonderful knowledge that HH Radhanath Swami shares here.
I feel like listening to him again and again as his teachings really bring me back to focus. I really feel better spiritually connected as much as I absorb his teachings.
Bhagavad Gita, most people think, is a Hindu text. But no, it's a non-sectarian book on the science of spirituality. thesacredconnect.com
Piyush Singh good thoughts Piyush ! 🙏
Wonderful thoughts! This is the definition of real brotherhood "Vasidhaive kutumbakam". The world exactly needs this today.
Amazing site you have shared sir. I am getting benefited by going over various short videos of Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
Soon that's going to be one of the best spirituality sites on the internet.
It’s not compassion it’s humility, presence, Leadership, Education and the desire to be moral principal and just.
Hi swamiji, awesome!!!!!! Even I am Indian I don't have any idea. I applaud of you. I think you're American. because your accent is like that. it's great great great job.
I wish so much that this beautiful person was whom we would elect as our leaders...
ace ace imagine how much peace there would be instead of suffering 🙏🏼✨

Thanks for explaining the perspective of connection, Swamiji.
Hare krishana gurudev.............
Beautiful ✨ 🙏 💜 🌿 🕊️
🥺 i agree. We all deserve to be happy, loved and treated Equal.
Powerful message in short time
wonderful spiritual perspective presented in easily understandable way.. thank you
Very true! I was mesmerized by hearing this wonderful lecture.
Youre on the pay roll that's why youre everywhere complimenting this fraudster
@@ramad3162 no offense but how is he a fraudster?
Thank you for sharing thid
A very inspiring message... Radhanath swami is a true spiritualist who truly practices what he preaches... Divine gems of wisdom just flow out from his mouth always... Wish to hear his valuable messages again n again... Infact the current society needs such messages very much...
Yeah he covers up the murder of Krishnas REAL devotees . REAL spiritual.
When we forget who we are as we delve deeper and deeper into technology and farther away from becoming a loving person. We just forgot. So we must learn and in order to learn we must be taught some deep spiritual lessons before we become enlightened. Love conquers all. Fear creates dissonance. We are learning. Please keep teaching.
I feel his energy through my phone …. Powerful.
Im tryna live in his eco village but aparantly its a resort/ tour
I love what he does for the locals though!
The joy of life is expressing our compassion in everything we do.
Thats right , Very true. You can't pin your hopes of happiness on others , if so you will be subject to
Constant disappointment because most people are shyte.
Hare Krishna ❤
I always get the same thoughts pop up in my head exactly what he's saying!!
Yess
Thank you. I appreciate the excellent spiritual commentary. I am always uplifted by the gems of ancient wisdom of the mysticism within world religions, more recently I read in such works as The Hidden Words & The Seven Valleys by Baha'u'llah etc. etc.
Thank you!
I have recently been learning to find peace within myself and the outcomes have been amazing ❤ you attract what you put out into the world
Thanks for the speech and sharing the video🙏🏻
Hare Krishna prabhuji 🙏👍
Swami ji always addresses the most vital needs of our life, behavior and perception. I'm again focussed to the right priorities of my life after hearing him.
swamiji, i love you
Beautiful message... thanks for sharing 🙏
Thank you very much Radhanath Swami!
Thank you His Hiliness Radhanath Swami... Your words are so pure that it's breaking the stone hearted heart of mine... Sustainable development can be achieved by thinking every living entity with same vision as God's child.. Wonderful... Thank you very very much
...
Beautiful! Truly!
Why people go and see this poser is beyond me.
Mic drop. Maharaja nailed it
Truly inspiring, Pranam to Your Highness Shri.Radhanath Swamiji... I would love to get directly connected with him and would love to his follower...
We eagerly await the happy days of bhagawat dharma. Karuna. Active and thoughtful action to relieve the suffering of all. No matter what religion, race, caste color or creed. All are welcome to live in the house that Prabhupada made. Jai Sri Krishna
Filling the gaps in development of modern civilization ... Very nice message ..
I wrote some of the things down he said exact his words without even knowing I was going to run into this video this is amazing!
Just because you like what someone says does not mean that it is right or true.
Thank you
The easiest way to achieve a spiritual connection is to disconnect from the mind and your thoughts, all that's left is pure consciousness, and you start living through the soul not the mind
THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT AN UPLIFTING KNOWLEDGE WELL SPOKEN GOD BLESS 🙏
Hari Hari Bol
Great swamiji 🙏🙏
Amazing stuff. Words of wisdom.
Define wisdom.

Dude, you know what you're talking about! Thank you for helping to spread this message!

Radhanath Swamiji gives a message that is rich in philosophy and very practical too. He has given solution to the pressing problems like lack of proper food, shelter, water and power. Thanks very much. Looking forward to more such videos.
Nice points! We are very fortunate to have him give guidance to us. One gets this opportunity after many many births and by the mercy of a pure devotee like him.
yeah millionaire frauds do that a lot for the sheeple
Such a BEAUTIFUL... message. Thank you :-)
Jesus said it much better. Yet Slavin thinks he's saying something new and spiritual. What a poser!
I loved it
