Jai Sri Ramakrishna 🌺🙏🐚
This was really a great enlightening talk by swamiji...there is only one limitless infinite non dual existence consciousness bliss..the duality is just an appearance...and most importantly we can arrive at this realization by our own reasoning and self inquiry!!! Simply blown away
No No Thankyu for the Swamiji's pravachan ❤
Such a gift in your last words... "Relax. It's alright. You are the vast." Thanks Swami. Have a great summer!
The ever-existing infinite presence of consciousness is beyond the mind's comprehension and infinity is all we are ultimately...
My infinite gratitude to Swami Sarvapriyananda for sharing his brilliant words that help us to awaken to the infinite being.
Jai Sri Ramakrishna,pronam Maharaj

@Greg LeJacques not exactly - more like listening to the teacher that has knowledge that I haven’t hear before
@greglejacques1094Agreed, all teachers are students. But how was a teacher a student? By having a teacher.
Looking very simple but acquire to be reached to give reply with depth kniwledge.
Bhooma is exactly like being what Pink Floyd calls "Comfortably Numb"
Your hands , legs and your whole body feels like balloons ... there is no body ..the inside and the outside become one ... and your sense of self completely dissolves ..
So I pray to Ramakrishna Thakur ...May we all become "comfortably numb"
@@spiritualseeker. very temporary
@@spiritualseeker. but it has some longer lasting effects ..I get angry less often.. I am never depressed about my job ( I used to hate it before) I am able to stay calm when my daughter is having a tantrum.. so lots of good things come of it.
pink floyd is anti-hindu despite all thhe spritual stealing.
All lives are Unique without Duplicates.
So, Purushas are not Advait but Infinite.

Swamiji is amazing
Forever indebted and grateful 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
How beautiful he explained the verse of Astavakra, We (from a blade of grass to humans) who thinks itself as a limited sentient being is none other than the Vast infinite easeness ocean of Awareness is which the entire universal manifestation plays around like a boat.
Creation (bigbang or by the means hyperdimentional membrane theory which string theories says). Dissolution (everything getting contracted into a black hole). Our ever repeating experiencial cycle of birth, death, rebirth is just an appearance in us the infinite.
Pure consciousness can exist independently but if the reflected consciousness (the sentient being) says I'm the infinite Brahman than that's absolutely perfect becoz the appearance cannot exists without the real & the reflected consciousness is false, its Brahman all along the one dimensional reality which gives existence to this entire play of causality & we are that infinite, ever the witness and never the witnessed helplessly Choicelessly So.
It's time to calm ur Neurons.
Swamiji is great 🙏🙏

@@sudhirjha2088 and is swamiji not IN your awareness?! 😉. So You are Him and all words he said… 😉🙏🏼🤗
Why helplessly? Proclaim unto yourself that you are that!! And, YOU ARE THAT...You have always a choice to remain limited if you choose so but deep down the seed of infinite in you which lies there silently will never let you be convinced that you are limited... Thus, we crave for freedom... Happiness... Peace!! We start playing... Close our eyes and enjoy... But imagine how long?? For our very nature... The seed of bliss which can never die... Was never born won't let that false notion to set in forever... Because we... All of us are THAT... INDEED WE ARE ONE in the truest sense... One!!

Thank you for this speech. You have confirmed a lot of my own meditation on this. Also a lifetime of study and useless education. I’m not sure if it’s funny or sad that our so-called modern intellectuals are so brainwashed and lost they couldn’t reason back to origins.
Very right

Great topic relating to very typical modern scientific and philosophical discussions.
We are blessed that we are in the same era,as of yours,to learn, learning which there is nothing else to learn.
Absolutely beautifully explained & portrayed - than you swamijee
I love you
An excellent exposé of the most profound aspect of advaita. Thank you, Swami.
Dear Javad, what specifically are you praising sir?
Pujya swamiji ! Pranaam ! Many people ask you many questions and you always respond very calmly, we learn a lot from certain questions-answers. As a curious student of Vedanta, I am learning and one question always occurs in my mind that how a seeker use this knowledge in his day-to-day life particularly during challenging situations like unexpected behaviours from the close relatives resulting in financial losses, mental shocks as to how he/she can behave like this without any fault of mine ! It is intriguing to learn from the scriptures to maintain peace of the mind even during toughest situations ! Your lectures help me a lot. Pranaam !
Pranaam Swami Saravpriyananda ji. Stay blessed
Thank you Swamji
Treasured learning
May Divine Mother and Thakur continue to bless you x
Jai Ram !
Highly complcated.highly educative . highly refreshing highly inspirational
Not easy to understand even though swamiji's lucid explanation is unforgettable .shall have to listen another 2/ 3 times.Pranam SWAMIJI.

In a personified approach to God , you are an image of God so your attributes are His attribute.
thank you swamiji.see ,hear and think about your thoughts in september
It does not matter whether you understand Swami Ji or not... You are surely mesmerized by the everlasting smile on Swami Ji's face. Pranam...

Grasping the concept of "the vast" has been incredibly important for me. Thank you Swamiji.

Yes! I am vast , omnipresent, eternal and unique. Consciousness is a feature of the world. Let everyone thinks it and knows the truth.
We are so far far away from स्वामीजी but when we listen to स्वामीजी we strongly believe that we are One & Not Two. That is the power of our स्वामीजी.

Thankyou Maharaj, such an enlightening discourse..... I feel revived again.

Know I am limited and, within this limitation .... I am limitless ... if that is so true ... then, I am borderless & timeless all these times.
Limited yes ... yet limitless!
Praiseworthy comments no doubt! I hv to shake my Head or Heart i.e the question to understand. Pardon pl.
I thank you Swami Sarvapriyanand You are the life saver for me,🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The Swami always succeeds in inspiring, but not always in enlightening.
A clarification of what is a jeeva, and in what sense is it finally ब्रह्म, Brahman is critical to make this talk more than a mostly inspiring, but not enlightening words.
One ends up with a WOW!, and definite, if passing elation, and also a frustrating, “so what”.
More like a great artist, than a great master.
I must’ve heard 50 of his lectures- clearly find him edifying- and maybe 150 of other advaitins. The popular teachers all follow the “infomercial” format. They promise a lot, paint the outcome is amazing words, festoon the “product offering” with fabulous promises, but don’t really ever make a promise that is clear and falsifiable (in a scientific sense). You cannot say, what exactly is the relationship between that which is losing ignorance (the chidaabhaasa), and the aatma-Brahma. Does the chidaabhaas cure itself of its ignorance?
Koti koti pranam swami Ji🙏🏻

Maharaj, your talks just make me cry!! Everytime I have tears pouring down my eyes!! I cannot describe with what emotion, but it seems a mix of everything and a longing to realize!! I have stumbled across your lectures at one of the darkest moments of my life and they have helped me sail through, and miraculously even the Universe seems to have given me the time to heal. Everything around me has slowed down allowing me to drudge on through these times. May the blessings of Thakur, Maa, and Swamiji be on all of us.

That which is vast is immortal. The vast is limitless. That is why in one of the Upanishafa it is said that take whole from whole and whole remains. Purna theke purna nile purna e thake.
Maharaaj your mathematical treatment of experience as sentient beings is beautiful idea. Consciousness +object= experience. Our mind is like a screen r experience gets reflected there. For a person who is dead, there is no experience because the mind as screen stops functioning.
Sab shes a bolbo aparakkhanuvuti(part iii) apni bolechhen ekjan senior monk from your order jini sab samaye anabil anande thakten in spite of his physical chalkenges; he was lame and blind.

You gave me a Bhoomananda with the opening line , everyday ,😊😊
Dear Swami Ji,
My name is Sumit, I've been listening to your lectures for a few months now.
While listening to one of your lectures where you gave the example of ocean, waves and water, even though I completely understand what you’re trying to convey, I realised that our existence, the one where we think, feel, judge, experience, know, which we can either call the ego (the I) or the mind, is what makes us different from others. And I get it that, we’re not that existence at all, we’re the pure consciousness which is the same in everybody. But the thought that’s troubling me is that we as the subtle body (mind), feel, know & experience the things around us. Once the subtle body is gone, that who feels, would also be gone & the thing that’d be left behind is the pure consciousness which we can’t feel or see or even experience whilst we’re alive let alone feeling it after the death of this body. Then how is it that we claim to be that pure consciousness which we can never feel, see or experience whilst we’re alive and which apparently would continue to exist even after we’re (this body and mind) gone.
Isn’t this enlightenment also of the mind, is it wrong to say that we “feel” enlightened? The point being, the end of body is the end of mind until it takes another birth, another form and with the body gone there’d be no one left to feel the bliss or the inner peace that we’ve been struggling to achieve all our lives.
I hope my question's making sense. Hoping to hear from you.
Thank you Swami ji
The simple(!) answer is that this false I is the jiva. It is a bundle of this Pure Consciousness (permanent), overlaid with the Mind and the Body (both temporary). We, the jivas, identify so strongly with the body and mind, and have forgotten that we ARE the Pure Consciousness (due to Maya, the beginning-less ignorance, if you will; but it has an end when you are enlightened), which is always, and everywhere, and unaffected by anything. By actions performed with the body and mind, karma is created and (the results) attach to this jiva, and "colors" it (vaasana), that is, some qualities are enhanced and some are attenuated in this life. Pure Consciousness has no such "colors." When this body passes away, this jiva, with the coloring, is what transmigrates to take on another body, taking its ignorance and modified set of colors (compared to the time it had when it took on this body). So the mind is not all gone at the death of the body -- just look at the different qualities of two babies both born about the same time (with their different initial vaasanas for that birth).
At Enlightenment, this *I* is recognized as the Pure Consciousness, which it has always been and ever unchanging, and the body and mind are recognized as "never I" (but appearances in Pure Consciousness, like a person's dream objects). At that point, the mind falls away (merges with the subtle elements where it came from), and one lives as JivanMuktha, or self realized when living. At the body's death, it also merges with the gross elements where is came from.
Enlightenment is the jiva realizing it has always been the Pure Consciousness and was never the body or mind. [As body and mind drop away, the always shining, but previously occluded Real I is realized.]
==
One can refine this further to the point there has never been anything other than Brahman. So there is nothing "other" for it to see, so IT IS, or "I AM" is all that can be said.
@@say2be thank you so much for the response…read it thrice already…..would need some introspection 😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so much Swami! From Brasil.
Can swami talks also be in Hindi? India has a vast audience who love him and occasionally if swami can give talks in hindi too, it would be really great
meanwhile you can check out swami samarpananda.. he has several hindi talks
Yup Check Swami Samarpananda which @Dark Knight mentioned
I would recommend you ACHARYA PRASHANT, for the knowledge of bhagvad geeta, upnishads and Vedas etc . In Hindi , trust me he is spreading true meaning of these sculptures.
But remember one thing , he has some extreme ideology for supernatural and other things , which can be different from perspective to perspective, so try to ignore such part and don't judge his knowledge from that part , he has great knowledge of sculptures and he is spreading that knowledge very positively and enhancing human development and spirituality.
Thank you ❤️
