- This video is based on a dialogue from the Katha Upanishad between Nachiketa and Yama (the god of death). For his third boon, Nachiketa asked Yama to explain to him the mystery of what comes after death. Yama's reply explains the core of Hindu Philosophy or Advaita Vedanta i.e the doctrine of non-duality. It explains who we really are and how to realize our true self.
Story :
Vājashravasa, desiring a gift from the gods, started an offering to donate all his possessions. But Nachiketa noticed that he was donating only the cows that were old, barren, blind, or lame;[5] not such as might buy the worshiper a place in heaven. Nachiketa wanting the best for his father's rite, asked: "I too am yours, to which god will you offer me?". After being pestered thus, Vājashravasa answered in a fit of anger, "I give you to Death (Yama)".
So Nachiketa went to death's home, but the god was out, and he waited three days. When Yama returned, he was sorry to see that a Brahmin guest had been waiting so long. He told Nachiketa, "You have waited in my house for three days without hospitality, therefore ask three boons of me". Nachiketa first asked for peace for his father and himself. Yama agreed. Next, Nachiketa wished to learn the sacred fire sacrifice, which also Yama elaborated. For his third boon, Nachiketa asked to learn the mystery of what comes after death.
Yama was reluctant on this question. He said that this had been a mystery even to the gods. He asked Nachiketa to ask for some other boon, and offered many material gains.
But Nachiketa replied that material things will last only till the morrow. He who has encountered Death personally, how can he desire wealth? No other boon would do. Yama was secretly pleased with this disciple, and elaborated on the nature of the true Self, which persists beyond death. The key of the realization is that this Self (within each person) is inseparable from Brahman, the supreme spirit, the vital force in the universe. Yama's explanation is a succinct explication of Hindu metaphysics, and focuses on the following points:
The sound Om! is the syllable of the supreme Brahman
The Soul, whose symbol is Om is the same as the omnipresent Brahman. Smaller than the smallest and larger than the largest, the Soul is formless and all-pervading.
The goal of the wise is to know this Soul.
The Soul is like a rider; the horses are the senses, which he guides through the maze of desires.
After death, it is the Soul that remains; the Soul is immortal.
Mere reading of the scriptures or intellectual learning cannot realize Soul.
One must discriminate the Soul from the body, which is the seat of desire.
Inability to realize Brahman results in one being enmeshed in the cycle of rebirths. Understanding the Self leads to moksha
Thus having learned the wisdom of the Brahman from Yama, Nachiketa was freed from the cycle of births.

Government of India must encourage TV channels to create teleseries to explain wisdom of Upanishads to common people. It is need of the hour.
and then what? liberandu media might say "democracy is in danger", " secularism is in danger", "islam khatre mein hain".
@@CyPsyGuy but then these are actual scriptures where no one deny the teachings
@@ashyskk the whole point is that even if the government took the initiative to do such things ( which we can only dream that such shows will ever be televised ever again ) the muslims and christens who now hold an unprecedented power over both the media and the information published or televised will never allow such beautiful shows to ever be televised because its "danger" to "democracy" and "secularism". that being said , we all do wish that such shows make a return so the young generation such as myself get the chance to watch them.

Maybe every teacher might not be akin to Yama dev, but Yamraj still is and forever will be one of the greatest teachers in life.

The background of this conversation is when Vājashravasa, desiring a gift from the gods, started an offering to donate all his possession. But Nachiketa, his son, noticed that Vajashravasa was donating only the cows that were old, barren, blind, or lame;[7] not such as might buy the worshipper a place in heaven. Nachiketa, wanting the best for his father's rite, asked: "I too am yours, to which God will you offer me?". After being pestered thus, Vājashravasa answered in a fit of anger, "I give you unto Yamaraja Himself!"[8]
Despite his father's repentance at his outburst, Nachiketa regarded his father's words to have a divine meaning, and consoling him, went to Yamaraja's home. Yama was out, and so he waited for three days without any food or water. When Yama returned, he was sorry to see that a Brahmin guest had been waiting so long without food and water. To compensate for his mistake, Yama told Nachiketa, "You have waited in my house for three days without hospitality, therefore ask three boons from me".
Thanks

There is some dirt in Hinduism eg:- caste discrimination

This is the land of seeker not believer or belief system, we seek truth even if god came to us we ask quations this is a tradition of bharat thats why we have more numbers of enlightened beings
This is loaded with information… your knowledge and patience level will decide how much you are able to decode.
Notice that, there is sth common in all religions that is 1 and half letter word but it can't be chanted by our mouth.However, it exist like other energy. In sanatan dharma this word is called holyname (naam). Those who knows bible may have listened a bible verse "in the begining was the word, word was with god and god was the word".it means god form at begining was word form i.e. sort of vibration. Guru nanak dev has also spoken abt it as " adhi sach jugadi sach hai bhi sach nanak hosi bhi sach....waheguru satnaam" i.e. satnaam is truth and this truth was in begining, is present now and will remain in future.when we see common in this two verse, both means that there was sth, a type of vibration in the begining. In sanatan dharma lord krishna said that he had imparted knowledge to the sun in the begining before all the creations. Now just imagine, the sun does not have bodily form like we have and lord krishna at that time might not had human form as that was the time before any creatures and human body was evolved. So there is a question how could it be possible to transfer knowledge when giver and receiver both dont have human form? So the knowledge is subtle, subtle than any other form of energy like sound wave or light wave. We can say it is more subtle than any energy that science has discovered yet. This subtle form of energy is called primordial vibration. It was in the begining and was the creator of all energies (em waves), and materialistic world where we live in.Nanak dev has further described it as " sabda hi dharti sabda hi akash sabdha hi sabda vayo prakah sakal shristi sabda ke pache nanak sabda ghata ghat aache "i.e. earth, sky, light and all creations are manifestations of sabda (word) and this sabda is also inside living beings.so we say god is inside us and is omnipresent.Hence, its all abt that holyname ( also called bhramhagyan, aatmagyan in hinduism), word in christian, sabda( or satnaam) in sikh, and may be incarnations of other religions might have described it in their own way and language. Hence our perception of incarnations and religions being different frm one another is wrong.Essence of all religions is one and that is truth. People who want to know their religion must seek for this truth.
Thank you for this🙏
What Bollywood and tollywood shows yamraj
And this guy acting here like Yamraj is already here infront of me which is not some dumb and funny character but one who is full of true knowledge and one who is the god of death
Everything is true but it's a magnificent paradox, created by himself (the only Energy/God/Om/Purush)
So brilliance 👍!!
When I listen these words, even with my little understanding of Hindu language, the words of Abhramic religion feels so childish especially the one where their prophet had a large harem of concubines 😂😂!
No wonder why Steve Jobs found inner peace after visiting India 👍!!
You can watch this with subtitles! They are available in English ❤🙏🏻
What I find hilarious is people trying to appreciate Sanatan Dharma but at the expense of downplaying other religions. It feels cheap and dishonourable to the teachings of Sanatan Dharma itself. 🙏
@@sowrabsinha1931 Its Okay! Mind them not, they come from a place of duality. If they find truth from making others wrong, and themselves right, may the divine guide them from darkness to light. It's their mind that are playing tricks of dualism.
Bless them, for they are seeking the truth as well.
@@sowrabsinha1931 Sanatan is not a religion, it's the truth. It's far away from what religions can give and what people can have by following a religion. People can follow and unfollow religions, but can't unfollow this truth even if they're ignorant. We're always free to comment on anything that affects our life.

Immense knowledge in just few minutes. But who has written these dialogues. "Zamana" and "Rasta" are urdu words, it should be "pidhi" and "path" in pure hindi.
It's the 21st Century, the Modern World is full of materialistic pleasures & distractions, and People are addicted to the Internet.
We need to Televise this again all over India for People to realize what truly matters in this Human Life, and to walk more on the Path of Spirituality rather than walking on the Path of Mindless Pleasure.
this 7 minites clip is 10000 times better than adipurush ❤
My take aways from the video...😊
There is a difference in calling someone Beautiful and calling someone Dear
There are 2 type of pleasure,
Please of Senses
Pleasure of Soul
Please of senses can be achieved by taking material possessions but this pleasure is short lived.
Please of Soul can be achieved by earning Credit.
One need to build something for which s/he is accredited for.
This is how the 'Shrey' will be earned and bigger changes can be brought.
Pls feel free to correct me, if you find my understanding flawed somewhere.🙏

@@Robin-il4ev which peer reviewed scientific research has proved the existence of Aatma?
@@AnonymousAlien2099 Which Peer reviewed research has proved it doesn't?? Although my answer wasn't specifically about the Atman. That's why Sanatana philosophy never imposes anything on thinking or can say Vicara. It has always welcomed contradictory vicharas and promoted to sick the ultimate Truth by thyself.

So who is the Doer, Non-Doer and Seeker , Can you please elaborate?
@@soumik_smnta yes
At vyavaharik level, your body is the apparent doer and seeker and whatever.
At the paramarthik level, there is no body, no world, no mind.
Brahman only is the doer, did, done, doing, everything.
Brahman knows brahman !
@@soumik_smnta The Brahman is never attached to anything, so there is no such thing as liberation.
At the vyavaharik level though, mind is the one which gets attached or detached, and is filled with dualities.
Brahman is eternal, peaceful, bliss, existence, and non dual.

Once Nachiketa went to a supermarket and demanded to know the stock of Rice they had, the salesman enquired why he wants that info then Nachiketa responded that he could eat the food comfortably only if he gets this information, So he was asked the quantity of Rice he needed and Nachiketa responded that he only needed a 25 kilo Rice Bag, then the store keeper replied, 'Buy the quantity you need and Fcukoff..'

Om Namah shivay...
Yes we. Are here to live. But. 1. In what manner? 2. Why we (as a country) need to make laws. If we are hereonly to live?
What does any country have a Constitution of any kind?
@@criticalanalysis1937 let's go back to basics.. do you really think God has created the infrastructure that we live in? Bet God had no idea that the earth created by him will be modified into buildings and human values comes with a price tag. He is creating living beings the same way he had created a few thousands of years ago so in his eyes people still belong to caves rather than mansions. So the constitution you are describing has nothing to do with creation and destruction. Which part of the constitution you accept.? 'Only the ones which favours you'
@@criticalanalysis1937 so before asking anything to God first ask yourself, 'Does God have that thing to give it to you' Think of a God in two images
1.Sitting in a forest peacefully.
2.Cruising in a Bugatti in full on Hunk mode wearing platinum neck chains and diamond rings.
Which one will you accept? Definitely the first one who has nothing to do with human creations and related suffering which includes your country borders and its constitutions.
My question is with reference to what you said about nachiketa and....
Mukti = Immortality
I lpve the similarity between this concept and Sikhi text i.e Guru Granth Sahib and Dasam granth sahib ik omkar=Om(Aum) it is described as the first and the best name of the God, The only way to liberate from this world is the name of the Lord, No symbol picture or anything can help u to escape from this, Karma and punarjanam is also exactly same
