ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
ABOUT US
Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.

🙏🙏🙏pls continue 👍
Thank you bro for the summary
@@sathyanarayan1929 i am humbled
Karma is not necessarily serving others. It's more like doing your duties nishkam way. There is difference.
This swami is just on a different level compared to every other one on youtube
Hi, swami Tyagananda is on the same level of you wish to listen
This video is an answer to my prayers. It brings tears to my eyes to hear such wisdom delivered so lovingly and with humor. What a blessing.
🙏🙏🙏
Pranams Blessed One.....
When thy prayers are Sincere...the Grace finds its way to Thee...
When water comes from eyes this is due to over ecstacy and bliss. This shows you are a very conscious person. Nothing wrong. When your journey starts inwards water will just flow from eyes.
I feel you brother 🤗
I exactly got you...
Its amazing to see how indians have very detailed positively logical answers for almost ALL of life's problems.... 🙏
What is really amazing to me is how this conspicuous mountain of wisdom is utterly invisible to the overwhelming majority of Americans!
I recently went to India, it very much appears to me that this mountain of wisdom needs to be more urgently and vehemently uncovered there first!
I find it very hard for me to trully admire someone spiritual and intelectual skills. But now I imediatelly liked this swami.
He is one the Greatest teachers i have listened TOO BLESSINGS! !!!
Swami Vivekananda always tells I alone can't do everything but I want some more 1000 disapples N spiritualize souls like Swami Sarvapriyanand.
I have been listening to this Swami for maybe 7 month.....yet it seems I've known him forever...i wish I would have known about him on my last visit to NY...last November....maybe next time !
No matter how many times one hears these Pearl's of living in best way..and Ramakrishna s divine stories ..new everytime..thank you Swami
I am really fortunate to start my quest for Advaitha vedanta through swamy sarvapriyananda...each of of his lectures are like magnets pulling more and more towards advaitha..He is such brilliant teacher ,who always says ,'we' though he is much much more ahead of us..he is true guru with compassion and really blessed with the sweetest oration...
Thanks a lot Vedanta NY
Also watch Acharya Prashant' s videos.
It is so lucid, enjoyable and true. We love him. He is excellent teacher of Advait.
@@seeker6089 there is huge difference between a true monk and a householder. A monk practices what he preaches, whereas a householder only preaches.
This monk is a gift of RK no doubt. But interesting part is that all monks ( I have come in contact of RKM only) in general have some edge in some way. That’s very very interesting.
I understand and appreciate and resonate with ur general comment about AV. But, what did u particularly learn from this video? I found nothing. And boring too.
Swami sarvapriyanand is doing well for the society, what Swami Vivekananda started and other dignified monks of the order carried it till date. I can only pray almighty God to bless him with health and happiness in his work of awakening the society by his lecture on RUclips.
May God bless him.
I often used to feel torn between my worldly self and my spiritual self. Hence, when Swami ji talked about the conflict, it resonated with me so much. And I feel supremely blessed to have my questions answered and my confusion resolved!
I see so many similarities between Sufi and Advaita Vedanta. I came to understand more about Sufis after learning Advaita Vedanta. Thank You Swami Sarvapriyananda, we are one
Yeah Sufism comes very close to Advaita.
Even the mystical understanding of Christianity (not the doctrinal driven approach) comes close to Vedanta. All religions are like wells that try to drink from the water. Each has it's own flavor.
Islamic Studies, Theologians quarrel but mystics speak the same language.
If you see the quotes and teachings of Sufi masters like jalauddin rumi, Hafiz, mansoor Al Hallaj etc, all of them resonate with themes of non duality/ Advaita. There is a underlying unity which encompasses all living forms.
@@samarpanmajumdar1323 yes you are right. Sufism is close to Advaita but never the same.
@@samarpanmajumdar1323
I respect your opinion but I have learned Sufism for a long time. I understand what you hear about Islam but I have a different view.
Yes brings tears ...so beautiful ..and yes he comes..to take his children across...💖🙏🙏🙏
Mind disturbed by lust and instant gratifications is the mind who wanders most. Mind who wanders most is idle mind, idle mind means there is no challenging goal one is working on. Goal can be worship.
Pranams Swamiji ❤
Whenever Swami speaks my soul feels connected to the truthful eternity which was not known to me even a minute ago. Heartful thanks for this enlightenment. I am personally deeply affected by your unique renunciation towards this journey. Really hope to meet you one day. Respect & Pranam 🙏
Same here...just listen to him....it will take you to another world....and force us to believe I am real Brahman....
" the hunger must burn itself out. There is no point in satisfying the hunger."
U G. Krishnamurty
Swamiji, I feel extremely lucky to
Find a Vedanta teacher like U! 🙏🙏🙏
I find Ramakrishna's advice for redirecting desire and lust towards god to be so powerful. If such a feeling arises, I distill it down to its "active ingredient", so to speak, which upon some investigation is happiness arising in my own being - it never came from the object, it just seemed to. It assures me that the source of happiness truly is within. I can then let go of the object and let the distilled happiness that the desired triggered ring out like a bell in my being.
i feel the history of rama krishna in the boat so vivid! ft i was there.. very touching and enlighten your words swami.. i bow into you swami sarvapriyananda🙌
Sadar Pranam respected swami ji....I feel elevated always and everytime with your kind blessings of wisdom. I pray for such blessings forever. Even being hindu i was not aware about this great great Vedanta philosphy. Sad
I cried in the end. I could understand why you spoke of Kalipodo Ghosh. I am his old self and more and hope I can go somewhere a little closer to God like him
One of the most beautiful lectures I’ve ever heard. Thank you so very much Maharaj 🙏🙏🙏
What a combo, Ramakrishna a bhakti giant and Vivekananda a Jnani giant. But greatest gratitude for the knowledge 🙏
Shri Ramakrishna was a bhakta on the outside ,inside he was a jnani ,Swamiji was the opposite ,a jnani on the outside inside he was a bhakta
As a recovered alcoholic myself, I relate very strongly to Girish Gosh. Not being an alcoholic, the Swami doesn’t quite understand the miraculous nature of God removing the obsession to drink, it’s not a small matter. To quote Jesus again, “What is impossible for man, is possible for God”.
I am so astonished right now.
This is amazing, the entire World can hear this and understand it, if only they let go of the Ego and expose their consciousness enough to understand the core of the human condition in every religion in the world, intellect and lower mind conflict...this is not something everyone can understand, but when you do, it's priceless!
This is why the West (as political entities) has always been so deathly afraid of exposing its population to the philosophies of the East, specifically India. Once you're down the path to the journey to peace, love, understanding of every human's thoughts that lead to greed, lust, selfishness, the shell of a human we've all become- the universality of consciousness and religion is exactly why Vedanta is so impressive and why Americans are falling in love.
This is 100% compatible with every religion in this world, because THIS IS AT the core of every religion of the world, and I can't believe our parents in the U.S didn't teach us these concepts, although it's mostly because they never learned it themselves. But, I'm lucky to have heard this now. Thank you Swami S!
Such a wisdom. Such a wisdom... tears in my eyes to know such spiritual souls walked on holy land of Bharat.
प्रणाम स्वामीजी !

Swami Sarvapriyananda teachings and explanations and stories are very inspirational and helpful. Thanj you Swami.
Swamiji your knowledge is so blissful. I practice meditation and a devotee of some other organisation. Knowledge I get is same, my gratitude to you Swamiji. I am a Bengali so a couple of words in Bengali.....
Pronam neben Swamiji 🙏
Thank you so much Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏
2:11 (and for the next two minutes) I found this especially helpful
💙💙💙💙 I wish to become member of the ramakrishna math...
What do u mean by member, there are no such being membership. If you follow the principal of the holy trio u are directly connected. And some people are with the view by taking initiation (Mantra diksha) they are connected. Or best u can serve any centres of ramakrishna mission or math as a volunteer.by this u can be a part of this great organisation
Then whats stopping you?
@@JustBansuri Maya😅
See
Maharaj, can never thank you enough 🙏🙏
Swamiji told such a beautiful story of
Transcendence. That sums up everything. My Mom always says, we should ask to Master SriRamKrishna to help us to transcend the worldly life at the time of death. We should keep keep doing Japa.
Having reached perfection in Yoga one realises it oneself in one's own heart has renounced all deeds by surrendering to the Divine whose doubts have rent as by knowledge established in the Self is not bound by actions
Beautiful insight
Excellent!
everyone talks about channelizing the desires towards God but no one said HOW ? thank you for the video
Maharaj wonderful. KIndly accept my most humble pronam
Pranam to Maharaj for the illuminating discussion
Thank you 🙏
Thank you Swami ji 🙏🏼🔥😌
Thank you Swami ji. The story of Kalipad Ghosh was so emotional. Thank you for enlightening words.
Thanks a lot swamiji.
Swamiji thank you for the talk which stole my heart Jai Ramakrishna
Thank you Sir. This talk is very helpful to me. Pranam.
You can overcome Kama with Rama,
You can quench Trishna with Krishna.
Wonderful
Think of it as an experiment .. see what happens if you are in control for a week , then a month and so on . If you are feeling better at the end of each experimental period ..then continue what is working and discard what is not.
Wonderful 🙏🏼🕉☮️
Om Shree Guru Bhyo Namaha . Hari Om
Way of explanation I like it 🙏🙏
Hari 🕉 pronam sawmije
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏thank u swamiji
Pranams to your holy feet Swamiji
