Atma Bodha-Self-Knowledge: Shankara's Teachings for Enlightenment
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 янв 2020
- Atma Bodha is a Sanskrit text of 67 verses in which Shankara reveals your true nature (atma) to be sat-chit-ananda, the eternal, limitless consciousness, non-separate from the supreme reality, brahman. The discovery of this truth (bodha) results in enlightenment, moksha.
Because of the profound nature of this text, it might be helpful to pause the video at the end of each verse and re-read the verse for the sake of deeper comprehension.
A note about writing on palm leaves: After palm leaves are inscribed with a stylus, the the etched letters are not clearly visible until ink is applied, as seen in the final scene.
Swami Tadatmananda is a traditionally-trained teacher of Advaita Vedanta, meditation, and Sanskrit. For more information, please see: www.arshabodha.org/
Till my death I would be grateful swamiji you introduced me to Indian spirituality just before suicide ! By my mistakes my love went I was a junky far far from awareness consciousness and in spite of having enough money my best friends fade away oh when I quit drug by force ! Not voluntarily! My eyes opened and just I wanted to not be anymore in this planet I envy to my late sister and then mysticaly I came across vedantic speeches in RUclips that changed my attitude to life and gradually slowly I fell in love with Indian spirituality that is the best remedy for a tired soul. Dear swamijis and sadguru and... I owe you my life I appreciate you. Now I seek happiness Whitin I want to be a jivan muksha and then get out of my body .thnx🙏🏼🙏🏼
Indian philosophy is divided with inner self and Supreme self. You can see jain philosophy and buddhist philosophy.
No matter what, please don't kill yourself. You are loved more than you know! I've been there so I understand. I hope that you're doing well now.
Follow Acharya Prashant to know more about Vedant.
Please don't harm yourself! There is always a room for correction and being an able bodied human you have immense potential! Namo Namah...
अध्यात्म की भाषा में इसे जागृति कहा जाता है तुम्हारी आत्मा ने ये जिज्ञासा दिखाई है की तुम बस तुम नही हो तुम अनंत हो , तुम्हे वो अनन्त बुला रही है भाई, अध्यात्म की ओर अपनी जड़ों की ओर लौटओ तुम्हरे पूर्वज इसी संस्कृति , इसी धारा के है, समय है अपने पुरखों की असली "धन संपत्ति"( गहरे ज्ञान) अपने अधिकार को अपनाने का
I am grateful to myself for taking time to be alone, free of distractions, so that I can hear this holy, understanding man speak. What a wealth of knowledge RUclips offers!
Thanks for self knowledge
Ashley, well said, so right, thank You..... Greetings 🕉️🙏
Your process is Atma-Vishara, the deliberate determination to investigate one's true self. As such it seems you have disciplined yourself from outwardly distractions and disciplined yourself from inwardly distractions of the mind such as desires and angers, this is Yam and Niyam, respectively.
Due to your understanding and concentration on the deliberate determination to investigate one's true self you are able to concentrate upon knowledge of the Self, this is called Dharana.
So Yam, Niyam and Dharana have been practiced. These are numbers 1, 2 and 6 of the 8 limbs of yoga. Imagine what can happen by practicing the remaining 5 limbs?!
Have a blessed journey however one choses the practiced path. Jai 🙏
Excellent production! We are so fortunate to be able to receive your teachings from the comforts of our homes.
Simple and excellent.
your teaching??viktor he is just a narrator....newtons gravity theory does not become Mr Smiths theory of gravity just because he gets to teach grade 6 physics in a school.
Simple illustrative superb
Choreography, speed of explanation n chanter is all very nice 👌
Vivek Raina teachers convey knowledge we already know. Researchers/scholars create new knowledge.
“Without self-knowledge, enlightenment is impossible”. What a profound declaration and yet one continues to be distracted along the process of spiritual unfoldment.
I thank youtube , i thank 4G technology , i thank the smartphone i am using , i thank swami ji for sharing such precious knowledge with the world in such simple language. I have been practicing meditation for more than 18 months and now with this knowledge i feel closer to enlightenment , thank you again

@@robiniilm1 me too based on Bhagavad Gita teachings (and ofcourse Atma Bodha is ultimately based on Bhagavad Gita and the Vedas)
Meditation is done for attaining the knowledge for clarification of doughts
Thank you Swamiji for expounding Shakara's deep wisdom of exposition on the Atma Bodha.
THAT, in which all these worlds seem
unshakably existing
THAT, To which all these worlds belong,
THAT, from Which all these worlds arise,
THAT, for Whom they all exist,
THAT, with which all these worlds gain
existence and
THAT, Which they really are, -
THAT alone is the abiding Reality.
Gently love the Atman
Which is Reality,
In Heart.
Sri Ramana Maharshi

I can Express my unmeasurable gratitude to your videos. Tears flow sometimes when this direct knowledge flows into my mind. Removing false identification.
typo..cannot 'but' express
lol
huge compliments to the man chanting the text!
This work is a monumental masterpiece. Thank you so much for this translations and commentary. I have been left speechless.
Please never stop teaching us.
Thank you.Brevity in verses speaks straight to the heart. The Holy Place resides within our hearts saves alot of hussle.Even though training is required.

Outstanding. This is holistc teaching i was looking for- Atma Bodha. Beautiful. Swami, you done your best video. Thanks.
Atma Bhoda! Thanks Swamiji for creating and sharing this video. 🙏💕🌷
This is the only lecture in which I run into the class and not outside .
Wow ! what a production . Swami Tadatmananda is a traditionally-trained teacher of Advaita Vedanta, meditation, Sanskrit, AND ( Producing Cool Videos of Vedanta for the benefit of us all ). Thank you, Swamiji. This version served as a refresher on the long series of Saturday Classes ). I absolutely loved the contents as well as the format.
Blessed to have found, listened and learning from you.
Not a single ad. Undisturbed teaching.Thank You!
Just what I was looking for. Authentic teaching of this logical spiritual tradition.
I learned we reflect Braham, my task is to polish my reflector so that I may have the brightest, clearest, truest, purest, most divine, "holy," reflection possible. ❤🙏. Let it radiat.
and that is done by the practice of Yoga! As the Bhagavad Gita says this Truth of the teachings of Gita is a synopsis of the Upanishadic teaching of Vedanta viz. Brahma Jnana and the Yogic path to moksha..Yoga shastra.You polish your reflector through Yoga.Then the clouds will dissipate and the Light of Atma will shine forth eternally!
Adi Shankara answered all my questions, I am blessed, BLESSINGS Swami thank you !
Unparalleled work. Impeccable wisdom.
Salutations to all who have involved in producing such a great work by which everyone can realise their own self. I bow you.

This has been a big help i suffer with fear all the time
Check out Sarvapriyanda as well on RUclips for Advaita Vedanta lectures. He's the best teacher of Advaita, period.
@@vajraloka1 judgement from others, failure, using my spirtual gifts
Steve Scherer why fear when you are not body but pure consciousness
Steve Scherer You’re like a xerox copy of myself. Fear from judgement and fear of pursuing an uncommon path.
G V while I agree, how can that knowledge go significantly deeper into the subconscious so that we remain unaffected ?
This one is great, long live Shankara
Uau fantástico o vídeo, gratidão. Acabei de ler um livro do Shancara e me libertou muito.

Criticism is something we can avoid easily -by saying nothing, doing nothing, and
being nothing.
yes Babu try to engage upon a course of inactivity and you will be beaten by your own vasanas! Your statement is what Arjuna in his sorrow exclaimed to Bhagavan ! and what did Bhagavan reply.Fight! Not become an inert piece of stone!
