Spiritual journey is the journey from selfishness to unselfishness, distraction to focus, desire to devotion & selfignorance to self- knowledge .pranam maharaj 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I wish Ramakrishna mission, start publishing Swami Sarvapriyananda, speeches as books, swamijis answers clears most of the spiritual seekers doubts.🙏🙏🙏
I was looking for the clues through the references to Bhagwad Geeta. Swamiji really brings the anecdotes in so many words tirelessly to explain true devotion (Sharanagati) so that we get a glimpse of enlightenment. I feel happy after listening to this particular lecture.
It's always enjoyable to listen to you . One more monk , Swami Samarpananand Maharaj from Belur math is also working hard to enlighten us with his vast knowledge . The very simple approach is really very helpful for people like us. Pranam Swamiji.🙏🙏
It is always a blessing to hear your talks Swami Ji. Thanks for sharing your wonderful wisdom with us for the devotees of Ramakrishna Vedanta Society of North Carolina. Glory to Divine Mother
🙏🙏 I am getting addicted to you Swamiji... wonderful spiritual and non dual Vedanta teaching. Every day I search you and listen one complete chapter of you.
Majority of humans are basically “consumers”, Consuming day in and day out, living mindlessly in self obsession and distractions. Hence the misery. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. 🙏
Most of the people are in karmic cycle, long way to go, to get the mental faculties to be a giver. If we have an analytic mind, we should work hard. We should work unselfishly.
Wow... The explanation of bhakti makes it doable and realistic ... Of course gyan is also needed but seems like a v difficult path... Thankyou swamiji for the clarity
Have been listening to you off and on sir. Trying to make sense of Advaita Vedant. Trying to take something from the treasure trove of knowledge. I feel we need to put Vedanta studies in the curriculum ,because we who studied in anglicised schools in India missed out on something that was legitimately ours to know and understand. The analogies are beautiful Loved the Harvard legacy student. Your sincerity is touching.
Vivekananda thoughts and teaching needed v.much in India now,as going downhill with selfish capitalism been given priority,individually and as a nation. Sad that we have such rich ,ancient knowledge in the very heart of beginnings,yet put on the shelf to rust. Only hope that since west as such an influence on our young minds( as that what parents stress on and a goal for most of their for kids to western education,and after experience, do not return to give back to their motherland),Vedanta will influence them rather than superficial.artificial, affected ,temporary and harmful social medi!
I'm not sure any teachings will work with the minds of the world today. We need another phenomenon like Swami. We need someone who unabashedly embodies the teachings like a kerosene fire. Let us see another human being fully human so that we may have a living example. If no Vivekananda is forthcoming then perhaps we should strive for ultimate submission to the Lord so that his Shakti may work through our forms. With our collective effort I have no doubt we will invite many souls like Swamiji to earth. Let us strive daily.
Loved the cooking story. The greatest problem many face is that they have no problems to worry about!This is when you look through life in an affected way. Unfortunate!
I am always suspicious of jñanis who seem dry of devotion. When we look at the lives and teachings of the great non-dualists, Shankaracharya and others, they were great devotees. The link between Truth and Love goes down to core of reality. A jñani with a cold heart, is no jñani at all. As we begin to soften our heart with devotion and service, the path inwards become ever sweeter.
I don't think you can be "fully" realized without embodying love and devotion. The vibration of pure consciousness is unconditional love Even Nisargadatta, Papaji, Ramana who speak minimally on these matters, you can just tell they're fully embodied. The mind (ego) is the only impediment to what's already there. Jnana yogis are focused more on getting you directly there ASAP and not the psychotherapy aspect of anything.
Thank you Sir, for saying what We all feel. Every county in the holy land of India has produced a Jnani. Not one of them was a dry (Shushka Vedantin ) they were all Bhaktas.
Love is not an emotion or feeling : it’s not sweet it has no response to its environment. Nor is love personal. Love is understanding reality and accepting your own place in that reality. To do this you need to read the work of The Maharishi whose explanation of the function of creation and the working of Natural Law is the sole authority for spiritual existence.
It is true that Wise learn faster.Faith is on assumption.Knowledge is Self experience which comes out of true wisdom.Faith does not require much effort but knowledge requires maximum effort and Sadhana .
21:42 focus gives you joy, distraction does not give you joy, this is called Raja Yoga. All knowledge is revealed by the concentration of the human mind.
29:04 Bhakti says, all the desires that run to the world, collect them and direct them as devotion, convert desires and make them flow towards God gives happiness, Love of God gives happiness
26:01 learning or money or glamor or power, what makes you happy? "Kon bachayega? Sethji or Pandit or Raja?" Will rich man or scholar or power save you? "Koi nahi bachayega, bachati bas yahi Vedanta Vidya hai"
@@kalidabera4704 If you are following the teachings of the Advaita Vedantam for the last 15 years, I think it's time for you to go through the Ashtavakra Geetha, the pinnacle of Advaita Vedantam teachings, if you have not already gone through it.
@@sreejithMU I Read Aland Know or Felt That Is The Truth but I Am Still Have Desire And Fear now I Pray For The Devine Mother I Need Her Grace To Realize.Pray For Me i Won Be a Devotie It Seems Knowing Alone Not Enough
@@kalidabera4704 You already have her grace, otherwise you won't come across the teachings of Vedantam. Now you have to forget about all the teachings and just be child like. Please don't be impatient about realization or enlightenment. "When you are no longer attached to anything, you have done your share. The rest will be done for you. Q: By whom? M: By the same power that brought you so far, that prompted your heart to desire truth and your mind to seek it. It is the same power that keeps you alive. You may call it Life or the Supreme.' The above quoted passage is from Nisargadatta Maharaj"s, " I am that'. If you have not read it yet, please read it.
Bhakti is very integral to both Karma and Jnana . In Bhagvad gita 3.3 ( Ch Karma Yoga) , Sri Krishna says there are 2 paths for 2 sets of people i.e Karma yoga and Jnana Yoga, . The Bhakti is implied that both Karma and Jnana path requires absolutely bhakti
44:01 the entry conditions to Advaita Vedanta are very high ... the world is evanescent show of passing shadows, dispassion to the world because my goal to realize Truth, and forbearance and unshaken pursuit of Moksha with full toughness, disengaging from too much New York lifestyle ... you cannot be partying every weekend
23:40 desires and joy and eating and drinking and achievements ... directed to the world ... the idea of happiness that we have instinctively: busyness, either working or partying and satisfying a thousand desires DOES NOT GIVE YOU HAPPINESS
Very grateful for the wonderful talks ... only I don’t understand: if “I am God” how can NDEers be forced back to earth very much against their Will by higher authorities... same for compulsory reincarnations that you sometimes hear about... even though they’re experiencing the Oneness whilst on the other side? 🙏
41:04 they are solving three doubts: doubt about the text itself, solved by Shravana. Then doubt about the thing to be known, does Satchidananda exist or not, how am I that, and then the contrary tendencies to the understanding.
43:02 how long does it take? Effortless and immediate ... but that rarely happens, hahaha, then it takes decades sometimes ... Swamiji we have heard this before you were born also
For bhakti do you need same basic gyan? I mean Swami clearly said gyan is not required.."the legacy student" example was extremely interesting! But still I have realised bhakti is also not that easy..you keep on going back into worldly things..and maya keeps on trapping you..plus have seen many souls.. everyone's level of bhakti is different even while following same guru..also cant recall the source..but same say gyan is also required for bhakti..if swami ji or anyone cud clarify this!
53:04 Bhakti says just start! Add God to your list. Jnana says give all that up, stop the nonsense or it will not work. Add God to your list, and God takes control of your life. God loves you, you just do not see it. Yessssssssssssssssss ... then what will happen? Magic will happen.
Bed ctet super tet Samadhi Body mind Listen to soul Mind observation functions nmnpnmo Death body Pr tum amar ho Infinite existence consciousness bliss bus Never think about yourself Sbka goal this h sblog yhi jana h Expansion kro no contracted life See life from away body mind
56:04 do not ask for potatoes and brinjals from the emperor, ask God for higher things, make up your mind that I am a Bhakta, not that I am a mother father going to ask something from God, keep these worldly identities aside ... go to God after throwing off the virtual skin of the world, and then the magic happens, God takes over your life and your life and others will be blessed, fall in love with God.
52:02 Suryakanthi Tripathi ambassador from India to Spain stood up and said people are stuck to screens hahaha hahahahaha extra layer of Maya ... MM&M, Man Made Maya
22:20 scientists objecting to it saying hypothesis and scientific method not just by concentration ... hahahaha.... and last year Von Neumann says he could crack any problem by the sheer power of concentration
30:48 almost diabolical advertisement of insuring yourself hahahaha it scares you! And it is very clever, it does not show you that death makes even insurance hopeless.
54:42 is that weird, loving God instead of person? No! You are loving the real Person there! God is the Real Person. What we think as a human being is just a bunch of our fancies and expectations and imaginations and passing shadows.
Sadness sufferings buddhu ho jynge if one leaves spiritual life n comes back into this world because he was meant to be spiritual stop using mind so much World is cause of suffering
