Just keep telling yourself that if you are not your mind and body you can’t possibly be the OCD disease. You are just pure existence, consciousnesses and bliss 🙏🏻🕉🙏🏻
Thank you! You bring my heart so much peace in understanding. Now, I only need to figure out how best to take this gift of love and wisdom to serve the whole. I will persevere, for the love of Brahman in everyone, everywhere.
Thanks Swami Ji. I watch your one lecture everyday. You are great and honerable because you are spearing the light of truth for others benifit. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Even to write a comment here one must have in-depth commitment to seek the truth. Not having that, the best I can do is to offer my gratitude to Swamiji for showing us that it is possible for anyone to become a seeker. May Swamiji be blessed with Long Life and Good Health so we can continue to benefit from his experience and knowledge. Jai Shree Sarvayamini
I love swami Sarvapriyananda, his way of teaching is so clear and filled with good humor. I have one question though, Swami seems to interchange the words Consciousness and Awareness often and very fluidly. Does he imply that ultimately they are the same???
I looked up “ there’s only one consciousness “ purposely because the other day I heard someone say,” The body appears inside consciousness “ and immediately I shifted in some energetic way and saw that my body was just inside consciousness. I had a feeling when it happened , it was a feeling of remembering that it’s been like this all along and the human mind is just appearing in this . EVERYTHING is appearing in THIS. I immediately went back to my usual way of perceiving but I will never forget that. It’s right here with us at all times but we believe so strongly that our consciousness comes from the brain that we experience a tension that makes it appear so
But if consciousness is eternal and is all there is why can't we remember what happened before being born? Also, don't you find this terrifying? Like, there's just one consciousness
Swamij sarvapriyananda helped me to understand the mystery of creation and where I fall as a human being and where I fall as an absolute hero 😂 indeed I am. Blessings my Guru
Aatmiya DIVINITY Jay Thakur HARE KRSNA Experiencing amazing 'Contentment' learning about the distinction of Consciousness. PARAMATMA is Universal Consciousness while. It's fractions, JIVATMAS are embedded in individual living entities having different bodies, minds, intelligence, senses, ego. Consciousness ALONE is ONE.😊❤. Very respectfully Loving ❤️ ING You One and All DIVINE ❤️.

Greetings from Bulgaria. We were first in the World who translated Vedanta from Original Sanscrit to Modern languages. We, here in Bulgaria, also have Vedas: Veda-Slovena :)
Pneuma (song title) "We are spirit bound to this flesh We go round one foot nailed down But bound to reach out and beyond this flesh Become Pneuma We are will and wonder Bound to recall, remember We are born of one breath, one word We are all one spark, sun becoming Child, wake up Child, release the light Wake up now Child, wake up Child, release the light Wake up now, child (Spirit) (Spirit) (Spirit) (Spirit) Bound to this flesh This guise, this mask This dream" by TooL (band) 🙂✌
All ah of Islam lifted from beej mantra of sahasrara chakra abode of lord Shiva. All ah (Shiva and Shakti) means all pervading in sanskrit. Islam doesn't give any idea of BrahmAn is everything and everywhere. In Islam there is no cycles of lives and Moksha. There is one birth and judgement day in Islam.
someone might think their are different consciousnesses because they dont know what consciousness is. consciousness means just being aware in this moment. so when iam aware and someone else is aware its the same awareness. awareness is just the concept of noticing what is going on inside outside etc. its that simple
Humble Pranams Swamiji Maharaj 🙏 Very nice and beautiful explanation on 1 Awareness consciousness in simple way. Again and again hearing the words from you Maharaj, it's really touches the core of the heart on Self enquiry 🙏🙏 Thank you so much Maharaj 🙏 Jai Sri Ramakrishna 🙏💐Jai Maa 🙏💐 Jai Swamiji 🙏💐
I sometimes see all personas whether humans,spirits ,gods.. as drawing sketches prior to adding the personality, essence is the same prior to taking on individual forms
I think the meaning of the word consciousness needs to be discussed first: reading other people's opinions shows a range of different opinions on this. For example, some people think that consciousness is only present during wakefulness.
That's where they go wrong. Because when they are in deep sleep and wake up in the morning, how do they realise that they were in deep sleep and didn't know a thing? Who was there who was experiencing that deep sleep?. That's the eternal Brahmn/consciousness
Nicely written.. Yes this is right brother... According to Quran There also many many millions consciousness (simple to complex) but there is one universal absolute consciousness.. According to Quran each body beside having his consciousness also have reason (simple to complex) but there is a universal absolute Reason working in this space time giving existence. Each body have 3 fundamental things assimilated and common first consciousness second reason and third action...
Swamiji, thank you very much for very convincing talk. One question always bothets me. If conciousness is all pervading, boundaryless and everlasring with no death or birth, then what is reincarnation? What is that reborns again again? If it rebornd, it should have the boundary, and cannot be all pervading. Thanks.
Understood but very difficult to accept believe assimilate.every body is different since the jeew component an amalgamation of twenty-four sukchham body of each person are individual with different qualities. Thanks swamiji
Consciousness is the Witness, the silent witness, as such is exactly the same all along, because we participate from it, but is not and individual posesion or faculty. The witness. Thats what matters.
Only one screen is required (for Lila) - from '0' comes 1 and from 1 screen then a multiplicity of imagery (fireworks of pixels) including BodyMinds/waves that think they are different entities forgeting they are of the same 1 screen/ocean and the 1 screen is sourced from the '0' ...
Namaste , Could the admins of this channel pass this question to Swami Sarvapriyananda ji, -> is there a possibility that one gross body can have multiple subtle bodies? Is this theory mentioned anywhere in vedanta literature?
1:30 CS is present in all living creatures( eg living trees )but not in human created machines or dead creatures or chopped wood or table There are different CS individually (quantitatively), though one qualitatively
Consciousness is all pervading infinite. So consciousness is also there in dead bodies and non living things but not mind there for reflecting consciousness that's all.
@@jayaprakashck7339 well said. WE normally mistake consciousness of environment and ability to respond to it, as awareness. This quality may be limited to 'living' beings, but every atom responds to its circumstrance and preserves its order as far as possible, that is the true definition of life. But the One infinite is beyond living or nonliving it is a screen of existence or substratum which provides existence and awareness (sat chit) to all things thoughts, beings. We are that, not just one body.
But even when I just rest in awareness I feel aware from one location. And when thoughts sensations feelings intrude, they are only my thoughts and my feelings (ego/body)
The one screen metaphor is good but I think this one is better which is from Physicist Tom Campbell of My Big TOE we are individuated units of consciousness which are aware create a freewill awareness unit to hooking on to a various virtual realities..one with tight ruleset is this earth virtual reality ..other virtual realities have different rules which we reffer to as different lokas..but underlying consciousness is same
There is this particular talk by Swami Sarvapriyananda where he talks about why consciousness cannot be many. It is a very logical explanation. He talks about Sajathiya beda, Vijatiya beda, and one more...(differences in the same kind, differences in kind, and one more). Does anyone have the link to that video? I want to listen to it again.
In another video Swamiji said consciousness is pervading, illuminating the body and mind. IN absence of body there is also consciouness but it cant be felt. Its felt only through functioning of mind and body. But when we say that I am brahman we idetnify it with our body and mind which is not true. So if we stop thinking about body and mind there will nothing left to realise, to experince of Brahman/consciosness (my real self) becoz to feel something mind is important. So my question is who will experience that real consiouness becoz at that point brain, mind (our false identities) all are lost. Anyone please help me understand it.
@@prashant-ul2sn so is it possible when just consciousness prevails. But at that moment nothing should be experienced. Only vanishing of body and mind. Only blankness. So what we can do maximum is to dissolve mind and leting blankness stay Or NOTHINGNESS And then suddenly waking up of mind. So its nothing else than sleeping state?? No need of meditation because normal sleep also gives disappearance of mind! & consciousness prevails only ( which cant never experience itself!!!)
@@sghosh9427 Dear friend: You have it right. Sleep is nothing but PURE Consciousness which desiderates neither subject nor object. Sleep is nature's gift to every single human being to experientially cognize that We are PURE EXISTENCE/CONSCIOUSNESS in our INNERMOST ESSENCE (THIS IS NONE OTHER THAN I), enabling every single human being to state "I slept". Even though there was no experience of body/mind/senses/world in deep sleep and there was no "I" thought in deep sleep, we attribute the sleep to ourselves because "I" existed and witnessed the absence of body/mind/world. The only thing that I would add is that SLEEP IS NOT A STATE, because a state requires a basis in time or space. Sleep excludes both time and space (based upon universal human experience) and is nothing but PURE CONSCIOUSNESS. This cannot be "OBJECTIVE KNOWLEDGE" in the form of Sensory perception or a mental concept. It is "prior" to perception and mind. We INTUIT it and WE ARE THAT.
@@ravindramurthy3486 thanks for your elaborate reply. Understood the no mind, no body, no I state unbound by time and space in sleep.. but as u mentioned in your previos msg as consciousness cant be experienced since it the one experiencing. Then what does 'self realisation' means? If sleep is pure consciousness and bliss then no need for self realisation in awaken state?
@@sghosh9427 Dear friend: Before I answer your questions, I would appreciate a response from you, to the following questions; this might help me in providing the appropriate answers to your questions. 1. Please tell me what you have understood so far by the term "Self-Realization"? Who is in search of that Self-Realization? 2. I would like to understand your second question correctly - Are you asking me whether there is a need or no need for Self-Realization when you are awake? Thank you.
When I say mind I mean consciousness the “mind” in terms of emotion and feelings is really just coming from the body so if there is only one mind why is there multiple separate experiences?
Swami ji I have a question You say that we are what we are because of our past deeds You also say people meditate for 30 years and still don't get self realization
The end of physics can not be reached by logical path but by intuition based on penetration into the essence of our experiences. -Albert Einstein- From: Dialectics in modern physics. Whatever is seen or known or experienced or imagined is made of Consciousness which sees, knows, experiences and imagines. Consciousness alone exists. From: Naked God by Swami Paramananad.
Maharaj, But what about jeevathma , paramatha. Even though we can say jeevathma is reflection , still some property is different to call it jeevathma. Also Incarnation claims they come with group of people, so it seems they also different with jeevathma. What vedanta says about this?
As Existence or Brahman, one does not need a mind to be Existence. This is evident when one realizes that one does not cease to exist when the mind is shut off, as in deep sleep. Thus, as Existence, one is unaffected by the mind, is not dependent on the mind, and remains as Existence irrespective of what seemingly happens to the mind. Because Existence cannot be objectified by the mind, we cannot express what Existence is through words and such, which is why we say Existence is “beyond the reach of words and the mind”. However, just because Existence cannot be known or felt as an object (i.e., “something”) using the mind, Existence cannot be falsified because Existence is you and you are not non-existent. Ergo, nobody can tell you what Existence really is. It is for you to realize what Existence is, and Advaitic teachings provide guidance on how this could be accomplished.

As Existence or Brahman, one does not need a mind to be Existence. This is evident when one realizes that one does not cease to exist when the mind is shut off, as in deep sleep.
