The Mystery of MAYA: Nasadiya Suktam - Vedic Hymn of Creation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- In this famous hymn from the Rig Veda, a great rishi (ancient sage) poetically depicts the emergence of the entire universe due to the mysterious and inexplicable power of Maya. Entire hymn recited at 19:35.
According to the non-dual teachings of advaita Vedanta, maya is a creative power that enables non-dual brahman, the underlying reality because of which everything exists, to give rise to the world of duality. The use of this particular word, maya, indicates a mystery that lies beyond the mind (manas), senses (indriyas), and reasoning (buddhi). Maya is said to consist of avarana shakti, the capacity to cover or obscure the underlying reality, and vikshepa shakti, the capacity to project a world of duality when all that truly exists is non-dual brahman.
Swami Tadatmananda is a traditionally-trained teacher of Advaita Vedanta, meditation, and Sanskrit. For more information, please see: www.arshabodha...

Please never stop doing what you are sharing. Fools and simple minded people like me learn so much from your teaching. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Haha, trust me, fool and small minded people wouldn't even end up here.. You're too humble.
Never use the word against your Self. ☀️
Thank you for carrying our Vedic culture and spreading it with such simplicity. I thank the Gods for the foreigners who have understood Vedas and other Sanskrit works and then brought it to the world. It helps even thousands of Indian youth who can connect better with such English descriptions than the traditional Sanskrit way of teaching. This sad thing happened because we stopped teaching Hindu children Sanskrit, Vedas, and instead forced English upon them. While we are busy losing our 3500 years old heritage, the foreigners are helping preserving it.
No sir we’re simply returning to our source, pre Abrahamic, pre modern Europe, etc indo European roots mixed with etc and we turn to the truth via was kept in bharat so vividly
You are God sent swamiji.... I don't know how to thank you for the amazing work you are doing... Keep showering us with your knowledge.. 🙏🙏🙏
my humble namaste to guruji. In india those who impart knowledge and humility are regarded as living god . we dont take their lives off like in other counttries. we dont have the ego thought that i am one and only supreme therefore we dont destroy their teachings or degrade the person but we keep them on our heart and worship their wisdom. Lots of respects to guruji
Thank you so much for showing the lit-up sanskrit text, it makes a big difference!
The great Guruji has very succinctly illuminated our mind on the concept of Advaita ,non-duality ,ie there is no distinction between the creator and created . That ties in with the modern concept of beginning of the universe , dark energy ,dark matter and the big bang . Hari Hi Om!
Swami, Thank You for filling in the missing piece for me by explaining that when we are in dreamless sleep we are still aware but the mind has gone to sleep. Now I understand when the wise men talk about the 3 states of waking, dreaming and dreamless sleep. This is from another EXCELLENT video of yours. It has lasting impact for me, so Thank You.
I think we have it backwards with so many things. Perhaps life is a dream state of Self. Perhaps the purpose of it all is companionship.
" life is a dream state of Self" NO!!! @@waldwassermann
I Love the simplicity , love and humility of Tadata Baba ji .
We are having a sense awe and bewilderment at your knowledge of Vedas and Vedanta. Even though you were born in a western country you came to India and learnt sitting at the feet of swamy Dayananda Saraswati. you have strived hard to acquire this knowledge of ancient Rishis. Hats off to you Swamiji for your knowledge and work.
Thank you for your teachings, swami ji. 🙏
Extraordinary, palpable, draws me in. Thank you
At 13 years old
I use to contemplate how this world around came into existence.
I decided to write my own scripture, completely disregarding the Bible due to it's lack of information..
At that time vedas were unknown to me...
But in my own written scripture the beginning started with a verse So similar to this.
Except, my words were
Emptiness, as Female, who sparked realization of herself,
realizing that she was alone, she then longed for Another like her
This longing or spark which multiplied inside bursting out of her manifested
So her Companion (the universe) came to be...
🤍🙏🏼
Send me your writings please 🙏
mam you shoul read the devi ( goddess) suktam in rigveda, the god in hinduism has no gender :
Ancient texts of Hinduism expound a reverence for the feminine. The 10th chapter of the Rigveda, for example, asserts the feminine to be the supreme principle behind all of cosmos, in the following hymn called as Devi Sukta,[1][2] :-
I am the Queen, the gatherer-up of treasures, most thoughtful, first of those who merit worship.
Thus Gods have established me in many places with many homes to enter and abide in.
Through me alone all eat the food that feeds them,-each man who sees, breathes, hears the word outspoken
They know it not, yet I reside in the essence of the Universe. Hear, one and all, the truth as I declare it.
I, verily, myself announce and utter the word that gods and men alike shall welcome.
I make the man I love exceeding mighty, make him nourished, a sage, and one who knows Brahman.
I bend the bow for Rudra that his arrow may strike and slay the hater of devotion.
I rouse and order battle for the people, I created Earth and Heaven and reside as their inner controller.
On the world's summit I bring forth the Father: my home is in the waters, in the ocean.
Thence I prevade all existing creatures, as their Inner Supreme Self, and manifest them with my body.
I created all worlds at my will, without any higher being, and permeate and dwell within them.
The eternal and infinite consciousness is I, it is my greatness dwelling in everything.
@@qwop6788 that is beautiful isn’t it? 🤲🏻🤍🙏🏼
@@FireWithinCosmosaicSEA glad you liked it and by God i meant the BRAHMAN ( ultimate reality)
You are wise beyond your years ,.. my humble wishes !
Wow. I just practiced written self therapy by writing questions out to myself in the idea of a psychologist asking me in their lovely and soothing office, and myself answering them without filtering my thoughts and words.
I nearly wrote everything discussed in this lecture.
I was breaking down what celibacy means to me and, deconstructing my written verbiage to analyze the key components which made up each word and what it’s place means in the particular sentence which it was inserted for expression. It took me deep into my psyche.
I came accross one of your videos awhile back..you helped me understand a great deal and I've built upon that foundation ever since. I'm now deeply involved in both eastern and western schools of thought. Much gratitude to you . Namaste 🙏
My studies have led me here. Thank you for sharing knowledge.
Absolutely wonderful swami. 🙏
Thank you so much. It is always a great gift to listen to your way of simple and accessible explanation of such big Vedic concepts. Your sattvic energy takes one right into the subject leaving the outer world outside. Your humbleness and humility is exceptional. Thank you for your service to the Divine by serving us, your listeners.
Pronaams!🙏
Swami Tadatmananda🌟, que maravillosa lección!!!💫, son magníficas sus clases!!!💫, . Cuánto se alegra mi alma😍, con sus enseñanzas⭐⭐⭐.
Gracias infinitas por los subtítulos en español😉, son de gran ayuda, ojalá todos los videos, estuvieran traducidos a todos lo idiomas🐣🐣🐣.
Abrazos, llenitos de mucho cariño sincero, desde Chile. 🍁💖🍁💖🍁
My reverence Guruji. Enlighten us the ignorents. Ur explanatipons are amazing.
Thank you. I'm turning that into a song. I think we practice on the same instrument.
Thank you Swamiji for yet another great opportunity to learn. Namaste 🙏🏽
Very well defined in a excellent way, thanks 🙏 and PRANAM SWAMIJI , you are the best .
WOW.. Wonderful.. Pranam Guruji..
Thank you Swamiji!
A very rare hymn you have taken up for this mystreous talk. After all Brahman & Maya are two sides of same coin. So by God 's grace if anybody gets One then automatically the other comes to the Light of knowledge. 🙏🙏🙏
I'm grateful to be able to read the English translation while listening to the beautiful chanting. Sometimes just for fun I will follow the written Sanskrit in time with the chanting. Both ways are calming and educational. Thank you. 🤲 🙏
I think it's better to negate the illusive God than trying to define True God. Because a limited mind never haves enough time to give complete definition to God. May mind be in peace by knowing "who is not God?"!
Neti neti as Rishi Yajnavalkya said
Lord Krishna was personalized Brahman to begin with... the keeper of Universal Mind...
@Aditya Kumar Pandey According to our (Parikshith Religious Members) current theory, we believe that there must be two consciousness , one is constant and the other as variable. We are imposing constant consciousness as god, who is independent always wealthy never experiences poor. Whereas variable consciousness is dependent on constant consciousness, who experiences both richness and poorness. And agree with you that variable consciousness can have the ability to experience non Duality or eternity.
www.parikshithcommunity.com
I think In these lectures, he is trying to equalize jeevtma as parmathma, which is wrong. Parmathma is one who is independent all time, whereas jeevathma is dependent some times in state of duality. Non Duality is the highest state of jeevathma but it is not called as paramathma.
I love this!!
I think about all the time!!!
Thank you for your wisdom. Pralaya relation to Big Bang was excellent explanation gave me goosebumps.
simply beyond prajna. ........ true Prajnaparmita.
Pranam.
I would say this is the best explanation of this hymn on UA-cam
Simple, humble and scientific. These are the features of his videos and presentation, I feel!
So happy with u explaining the Advaita Vedanta.
Aatmiya GURUJi...

Hearing, Learning YOUR kindself offering description and meaning is so pleasing and satisfying unfolding HAPPINESS.
Loving you one and all Now and HERE in this Light and Moment.
Swami Ji, My hearty sincere thanks for your effort to make us to understand many things.
Rig veda time line is deep into antiquity. It has all the description of Grandest Saraswati river flowing from mighty Himalaya to Sea in the south , existed some more then 40 K BCE, which subsequently dried up by 10 K BCE It surpring that at such deep antiquity our Rishis tried to imagine about big bang concept.
Thank you swami ji for beautiful explanation of rig veda.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for this great teaching swamiji
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hare Krisna. Thank you for sharing this important history dear devotee brother.

Thank You, dearest Swamiji 🙏💖 🕉️🎇
Thank you so much for the way you teach now I be able to understand how the things call the universe and how we exist 🙏🙏🙏 from now on all my questions finally have a answer I’m free from now I love you so much 🤗❤️
Wonderful Swami ji. 🙏🙏🙏✍️🌹☀️
Lindamente misterioso! Jaya!

Light cannot exist without darkness...
Nor darkness without.. Light....
Take a look at discrete spectral lines of... Say
Hydrogen...
Between bright... Lines..
Theseis darkness...
Without this darkness
Spectral lines cannot be discrete..
Yin and Yang... Coexist..
If... Matter is... Maya.... So.. Is... Light.. ❤
🙏🌹 guru ji 🙏 it is another your enlightened interpretation of vadic scared knowledge before us.
Thanks.
Om
Ishvara (the Holy Unity composed of the Holy Trinity Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva) was the first movement of the Absolute (may The One be adored eternally) in Manifestation. In a way, Maya is the creative power (Brahma) of the Almighty Ishvara.
Pranam Swamiji.
Kindly explain how mantras manifest our lives and deliver the good desired results
I practiced gratitude moment by every waking moment once for a 2 week period. I was filled with power but I ignorantly wasted it. Another time I chanted the Hari Krishna 'chant' or 'mantra' moment by every waking moment for 2 weeks. Again, filled with power and lifted onto a higher vibration. You can't explain consideration for others to a 2 year old. The child has to grow into the higher vibration. So, do your mantra and see what happens. :)
Gratitude 🙏
Great
Thank you. This is very profoundly important for us
Excelente!

Just go through any texts from any of the world religions, flip pages upon pages and find out the chapters, if any, in there defining the scene creating the Cosmos. You will find none except RigVeda.

Which are the better Sanskrit commentaries on the Vedas?

It is like the imagination corelated to the physicist's perspective the black hole.
Very nice 👍🏻
If world cycle ends when all living beings’ karma’s are completely exhausted then, to begin the next cycle, how Maya can create intelligent beings based on their “past” karmas? There are no “past” karmas remaining for anyone.
🙏 Thank you Guruji

Thank you for this extraordinary pravachanam, Swamijee.
I feel one odd thing that Maya is ANOTHER ENTITY other than Brahman. It is a bit strange to the Advaitic students like me.
Any explanation on Brahman is maya. It is that cannot be explained or unexplained, cannot be think or not think, cannot be experienced or not experienced... So when we try to convey any message of it, we use metaphors like the Swamiji did. We must grasp the central message from this or vedanta also.
Brain Feed!
Modern science has gone too far as they reached to atoms. They first discovered that everything is atom. Then they experimented more and found electron, proton and neutron. After that, they discovered the emptiness/nothingness in the atom. This is where Gautama Buddha reached. "Sarvam duhkham, Sarvam anityam, Sarvam sunyam"... All is sorrow, all is impermanent, all is empty ~ This is what Gautama Buddha's teaching is.
Now focus on a simple thing of life -
What is "thought"? See it in your first person experience.
Is it made of atoms? Or is it Empty?
~ Good Luck ~
@@amitbiswas1885 What a beautiful explanation dear. God bless 🙏❤️
@@amitbiswas1885 u r right thoughts are empty
Hello! Thank you for all that you do. I have a philosophical question and not sure who to turn to.... We say that we are products of our environment. But would environment not be the product of consciousness? No consciousness= no mind = no universe = no environment ? Thanks in advance. This is stumping me!
I dont know the exact answer but my father used to say that the Consiousness or God want to expand and enjoy itself and what we feel is the product of the divine and what you are is the divinity itself, its the expression of the supreme.
In India we call it *Leela* ( a childs play)
Thanks to Swamiji for the video ! The portion seems to be a little absurd between 2:14 to 3:03 . That is, the first thing mentioned is, Brahman is THE only non-dual reality. So, mathematically put, there is only set called null (non-dual) set that exists (which is real). The immediate following statement is, there is something else, called MAYA associated with non-dual null. If only null set exists, how can one justify the existence of another set containing MAYA. Sorry if the question sounds argumentative. I'm asking this question with all respect for the Swamiji. It would be nice if someone (not necessarily Swamiji) can clarify this absurdity/my misunderstanding.
Highly escoteric yet most sincere,honest and authentic too! However this also admit the human inconvenience to know ...cause and effect theory fails here ...out of chaos accidentally creation appear one may say Astavakragita,yogvasista throws much light and mandukya propogates the Ajati vada...now sages like Ramana, Gaudpada etc understood correctly..now also there is no creation nothing is should be conviction of sadhaks be
Thanks
Swamiji,how to touch your sacred feet?🙏🙏🙏
Can one relate the universal state of Pralaya to the individual state of deep dreamless sleep?
Yoga nidra is sleep state no awareness
Dream seens like awereness but not
Aweke state is experience through 5senses mind ego
All this is expreciom of Pure Consciesness
Turya Transcendental state is the seeker instrument of Meditatiom and through this refine the senses experiencing Pure Conscienciness refine and transcend body mind intelect senses and Realize the Thrue Pure Percepcion of Self who is Pure Consciesness and the ground state of sleep dream and aweke state
Tham Realize he is not the ego He is This Atma
Continues and Realize ParaMatma . Continues and Realize Brahman. All Manifest Universe is for evolutiom and goal This Thrue. Desire u be sucessful.
Whem Kundaline aweke through the grace of Guruh and ShivaShaktim . Earing Dumaru druns, Skin shiver , Solid behave like liquid, body jumping in the air trembling, mind in extasis tham u start Self Realizatiom Thrue. Nothing compares
By the grace of Lord SadhaShivaShaktim ShivaShaktim Atmakam Wishvam
Indeed. Microcosm and macrocosm
I would suggest to go to mandukya karika
Errata. Om Richo Akshare Parame Wyoman Yasmin Deva Adhi Wishve Nisheduh YasttanaVeda Kynricho Karishiatti Tat Itat Vidhushtta Yme Samansate. (trying translitered in Italic alphabet). Translation
Do colapso do Supremo Campo Imanifesto (1/4) surge a Manifestação através da mais alta criação do Mundo Celestial onde habitam os Devas (entes espirituais). Os Vedas (Expressão das Leis Naturais) Ressurgem (são Apaurushea não criados) E assim D'Aquilo Isto Tudo (as galaxias e sistemas estrelares enfim a matéria 5 elementos Mente Criadora Sentidos possibilidade de experimentação inferência) tudo Expressão da mais Alta Esfera de Inteligência surge como Materialidade do Campo do Ser (Consciência Pura) com propósito de Ser Muitos.
Sem no entanto perder a Unidade Primeira (que Cria Sustenta e Regenera)
But what was there when there was no Karma?
I thought the same thing too
If pralaya is caused when the karma of all living beings as you said, then why again does the cosmos manifest and you say in another later time it is because of the unbalanced karma of previous lives. I am confused
So we are inside of a point that is touching itself through space time.
While at the same time a point is already touching it self and so space and time did not happened.
It only happens when that point looks through space time.
Like anger happens when we look through anger.
I hope it makes sens.
That was the easy part. That point is present everywhere since it imploded to generate space time. So it is exactly where you are. It looks through your eye balls, from the inside.
So when you get enlightened, not a thing will change. The challenge is to see that you are moving from that point.
Like you say you are breathing as if you are the one making the breathing happen. But most of the time breathing is happening and your ego can't claim it is doing it.
Who you think you are is obviously a thought.
Who you really are is
🌷
Namaste Swami ji, calling the 14 lokas myth-ology means they don't exist, which is not the case. Just an observation here.
TRUE ...100% SUPPORT IT ...LADDOO
🕉️
Please could you recite hanuman chalisa
Maya is the vital creative power that associates with the non-dual Brahm to make it the Creator, the Sustainer (Preserver) and the Destroyer. When the universe is in un-mainfest state (after the last cycle of Dissolution and prior to the next round of Creation), only Brahm and Maya exist, nothing else. -- OK
The power of Maya, by its extraordinary capacity for unlimited creativity, makes the universe manifest once again. -- OK
The initial drive or impulse to make the universe manifest again is the result of the Karmas accumulated by those who lived in the prior cycles of creation. -- I DON'T THINK SO.
After the cycle of creation has begun, Maya covers and hides the Brahm, so we cannot comprehend it without making effort in that direction.
Wow
U were awesome
Namaste.
Brahm+Maya = Creation.
Alone Brahm= Abyayam
🙏🏼🙏🏼
swamiji.. can you please guide me by explaining the meditation method of shri ramana maharshi and nisargadatta maharj.. both advaitic teachers.. the" i " or " i am " thought feeling is not quite graspable.. can you please guide me.. awaiting for your blessing in anticipation.. thank you
Shree Ramana Maharshi could say : I A(1)M(13) = N+I+R+V+I+K+A+L+P+A (113), with letters as numbers by Brahman design... that 8th spoke in Buddhist Wheel of Life... 888... the 7th means Nirvana... 777...
🙏🙇🙇🙏
Thanks Swamiji for all your interpretation of teachings. One question? If there was no existence of anything, who’s is describing that state in verses like these?
Again thanks
😀😀😀😀😀
The great Rishis are after searching their hearts and coming to realize they are the same as Brahman
Swami ji pranam, can u give me some knowledge why population is increasing day by day, i mean from where new aatmas are coming?
See other videos in this channel, the answer is there.
So there was just Pure Awareness without an Object which Buddha referred to as the Zero point or what Vedas refer to as Brahman.
Buddha rejected Hindu gods and Vedas. He came up with his own theories. Buddhism is a religion of atheists.
