this is the most IMPORTANT video I will EVER make. i hope you enjoy it. 💜 also follow my temple's youtube here: ua-cam.com/channels/oeQClkDRaj9uABKHfHJUdw.html
I am a Hindu from India, and i am so glad Advaita Vedanta is being accepted worldwide with open arms. However sadly, Hindus in India are rejecting this moving towards duality :(
Advaita vedanta is not a complete philosophy though and does not work on it's own. The upanishads present both advaita and dvaita. One has to look at the vedas in totality and not just cherry pick the advaita verses. But unfortunately advaita followers have fundamentally misunderstood vedanta thinking they are the supreme self. If you are the supreme self then why cant you read everyone's mind? If everything is one with brahman then you should be connected and be conscious of everything right? :)
@Aditya Kumar Pandey advaita is incomplete because it claims you are the Absolute Brahman itself. However, the Absolute Brahman is already in knowledge, is all pervasive and has no need to understand anything at all. But we possess limited knowledge, we are not all pervasive and have the need for self realisation because we are just an amsha of brahman that can be influenced by maya. The Absolute Brahman is never subject to any maya because it is above maya.
@@ktailor1980 Advaita is not incomplete, what Advaita tells us that we are essentially that supreme nature. It doesn't mean we are supreme lord. Our nature is of that supreme being. He is all pervasive in his nature, not by his knowledge. Knowledge is of two types as it is said in Upanishads. Vidya and avidya. Vidya belongs to the knowledge of self. Avidya belongs to the knowledge of material energies. That all pervasive is not the Vidya, but the supreme destination of all Vidya. He is the source and also the destination. When you remove the mask that is being veiled by 5 bhoots , intelligence , mind and ego what remains is the supreme nature. We are all one, didn't krishna say in Bhagavadgeeta that "Vidya vinaya sampanne, brahmane gavi hastini, shvaane chaiva shvapaake, panditaha samadarshanaha ". 😀.
@@gangarajgowda3701 Yes, we are qualitatively one in the same way the ocean and a drop is both water. Brahman is our constitutional nature. But we are still only a spark of the infinite self and nothing more :)
@Levi Ackerman "spark is nothing but a thought or brahman" - that's not what the upanishads and vedanta say. The view you present is a thought itself that is nowhere to find in vedanta.
Every human should watch this video, imagine what the world would be like. This video is so well done. As Ram Dass has said before. 'We are all walking each other home' and koi, you're absolutely kicking as it doing it!. Thank you
I'm so happy that my friend sent me this, I've never really been spiritual, believed in anything, or practiced anything. I've always been really close minded and selfish, very self indulgent, and honestly I contributed nothing to society. This video helped me understand EVERYTHING so much better. I can now understand that we are everything and I now feel a sense of purpose and am motivated to do community service and contribute to everything, thank you so much!
also from a non-dualistic point of view, when i hurt someone, i hurt myself and when i help someone, i help myself /the universe! (law of karma), also being concious means "knowing together" --> non-dual! great video!!
alf ralf I would rather say, when you hurt someone, you hurt none and when you help someone you help none because according to Advaita philosophy, phenomenal universe is an illusion arising inside (cosmic) consciousness (the only one reality) like waves in a ocean...
Hemant -- No ! Karma matters..Advaita of Adi shankaracharya is a totality and higher dimensional reality of Brahman..Brahman alone is real and his maya also real ..Adi shankaracharya clearly said in his commentary of the upanishads the universe exists without existing ..Dual nature of the non dual is also real in material dimension..Maya is too complex subject ..Karma rules !!
I still haven't fully grasped it. I can understand we being the universe like when we look at tiger for example, it's made of cells, but we see a tiger, like we are the cells in universe, but I can't understand that I am everyone else.
@@hemant05 Phenomenal universe is not an illusion. Some Advaithians wrongly interpreted Advaitha vedanta by saying that Maya is an illusion through which Brahman or absolute reality falsely appears as the universe. Maya is the cause of illusion but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Maya is the creative Shakthi of Shiva. So, Maya is absolutely real ( world and the universe are real) So, Advaitha (shiva/non dual) is INCOMPLETE without Dvaitha (shakthi/dual) - Shiva and Shakthi always exist together for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. This is Sankhya vedic metaphysics which is well validated by embodied experience and double slit quantum experiment.
Harsha BV Absolutely right bro That is what Britishers do , They destroy our education system . Even Vote bank politics , not allow to make these Philosophies part of Education. Even Vedas , Bhagawat Gita are For Mankind , Humanity . It's just not thing of religion because hinduism is not a religion it's way of life.
aditya raj. It's killing Indian society also, Hindus won't read GITA or any moral works of Hinduism and they complete there education, take-up jobs and become corrupt.

Purely awesome!!!! We are all one! Love this!! One of the reasons why I follow Hinduism. If only everyone would follow this we would all be at peace. Awesome video!!! Love to hear about Yogananda video!! Namaste!!
Warning: Be careful though, it is very easy to get lost into all other different practices, rituals and philosophies in Hinduism, and all the so called gurus will drag you into something and then scam you. Stick to Advaita Vedanta, and Advaita Vedanta alone. What is Brahman and Atman(consciousness/mind): Only Brahman exists, it is timeless, spaceless, formless, eternal and infinite. Also exists within it are Atman (consciousness/mind) of individual beings like you and me or any other conscious entity. But this individualness or separateness seen by the mind is actually an illusion of the mind. In reality everything, everywhere, in everytime is actually one and is Brahman. What is the goal: What we individuals can do is train our mind to make it understand that the separateness it is seeing is merely an illusion. When the mind knows it is actually not separate, an individual is said to have reached Nirvana. It has penetrated the veil of illusion and witnesses the reality as it is. Mind has realised that it is indeed the same thing as the Brahman. Put clearly, it realises it is the Brahman. How to reach this state of oneness: Seek truth from every possible direction, understand reality, read scientific theories like Quantam mechanics, Theory of Relativity, Physics, Chemistry and Biology and try to understand the parallels. Do not believe any other thing until you have logically broken it down using intellect. Practice mind control everyday by doing meditation because the mind can look through the veil only when it is already a well educated and a well trained mind. That's it. Simple. Here we also need to realise that it is a philosophy, not science. Philosophy turns into science when there are repeated testable observations Benefits of thinking this way: Everything is one and the same, every human is nothing but one and the only, hence creates peace, harmony and stability in society.
Thank you for sharing this video! I have recently started studying Advaita Vedanta, and practicing Yoga. I have been reading the texts of Swarmi Vivekananda, but can sometimes find it hard to grasp the full nature of the philosophy this way. Your videos are a fantastic and engaging way to learn about my new spiritual path. I truly hope you continue to speak about Vedanta on your channel. It is such an inclusive and warm way of viewing life and all that is attached to it. Thank you again, Koi! From a loyal and interested viewer! 🌱🙏💭💖
Seriously Brother... Thank you! I thought I would be the only one to wonder such a philosophy. I would sometimes think that I'm crazy. To know that I have actually stumbled upon such a vast wondrous thought that is thousands of years old makes me feel... not alone. Thank you!
loved this video koi!! my mom has been studying this philosophy in an online academy for about 2 years now, we often chat and she explains me some of the concepts of vedanta, i really think is one of the most complete and beautiful philisophies
I recently quit following Christianity and just last night was looking into the philosophies and teachings of Advaita Vedanta. I open up UA-cam tonight and see you upload this video!! Thank You Vishuddha! I'm telling you guys the universe always listens to you, knows you and provides for you! Trust the universe and it will show you the way.
it is a shame you have stopped following the Lord Jesus who is the ONLY way to liberation. non-duality is an illusion, it is not impirical at all in any way. The Upanishads are great to read but do not explain the experience we are. It's true that brahman/God cannot be explained though. We are seperate from our neighbours even though at the same time we should be brothers, I am me and you are you and non-duality is simply illusion. You can't wish reality away.
@Raj Narayanan God is more real to me in everything, than a mere experience or a feeling, i found true God, did not just accept i tested it. This is just another superstitious belief and it just makes to forget you being than relate deal and experience it. Yoga is a way this stupidity. FATHER God,Jesus and Holy Spirit are real they make you live with out sin in fleshly life , others just make you hypnotize and forget things and make you feel good. Its rubbish.
@Raj Narayanan Rubbish, why should i believe in nothing ness, when i have proof of living God, Satan has a new trick to fool people to nothing ness, you will be eternally lost to hell and damnation. Save your self from it. Only as long as you have breath you have a chance, once a person dies he is lost eternally. This is a wicked trick by satan. Stand against it in Jesus name.
Thank you for your videos. In one of your videos regarding religion I asked a simple question about a Hindu practice and I was met with love and new friends. Your viewers are so kind in a whole no matter where or how I continue to worship. And I thank you for opening up the love through your videos.
What resonates so much with me with Advaita Vedanta, is that by seeking within, I have not only come to the same conclusion (without even knowing what that philosophy was), but also experienced it as an undeniable truth.
Much love to you Vishuddha prabhu! I've recently started on the path of Advaita and it has really changed my life and altered my perceptions! Thanks to Sri Ramakrishna, Adi Shankaracharya, and many other Advaita teachers I think I've trully found the path for me. Ram Ram
Great overview of Vedanta! Thanks Visuddha :) Vedanta totally changed my life and set my mind free after years of suffering horribly. If anyone is interested in pursuing it further I highly recommend James Swartz who is probably the best western teacher of Vedanta, he’s incredible.
Koi Fresco *Vishuddha Das* his website shiningworld.com has a wealth of information :) keep up the amazing work Vishuddha, I love your channel and love you :)
great video Koi! I'm from israel and I'm 18 years old . people always told me that buddhism and hinduism are Idol worship because of the statues. but It's the complete opposite ?I really like your content . can you make a video about combining Zen buddhism and nihilism Keep up the good work Ram Ram
Hindu's worships no idols(it is a propaganda of the .. )India knew that this universe is holographic long ago(now quantum physics tells the same which came from Vedas not vice versa).Idols are immersed by "Prana pratista" by universal life force which governs everything on this cosmos.It is immersed by Sanskrit Mantras,,All ancient hindu temples emits energy.. Temples are mathematical structures built upon Vedic vastu ..Most modern temples are improperly built ,so they work on the dimension of "Observation" only .To understand hinduism properly this planet will take another 200 yrs .
Stone deities in Hindu temples serve for 2 purposes. They act as symbolic representations or cosmic allegories of vedic metaphysics. They also act as objects for focus and meditation in the presence of vibrations created by Sanskrit mantras and temple architecture
Hinduism is really ancient. Bhakti/worship is just one of the ways to explore spirituality and that connection with divine and yourself and from west point of view that's all they can see, whilst practicing yoga lol. Yoga is another way you become conscious they'll practice yoga and yet demean Hinduism bcz that's what they have been shown. Not their fault if they don't know but if they despite knowing say that then that's just ill
I seriously hope your next video doesn't get taken down because your lessons about Spiritually is interesting and amazing because everytime I try to watch some of your videos it's gone and I'm glad you keep making videos and I can't wait to see more .
Thanks for this video. I always enjoy your presentations. Fir a long time I thought if myself as aTheravada Buddhist, but recently a learned Theravada practitioner was a little upset with me over statements I made on social media. He said, “your are not a Buddhist. You’re an advaita vedantist. Go back and read the early sutras! So, congratulations to both of us on our evolution.
This is the kind of thinking that shifted my view of reality so immensely once I started my spiritual awakening journey. It is a huge consciousness shift. That is going from viewing yourself as a human being inside of and apart from the universe, to a viewing yourself as the universe in human form.
I have been thinking about this a lot recently because it really helps me to ground and release my fears and feeling of separateness. I will have to look into hinduism more! It feels like something I always knew as a child (until taught otherwise)
You will get over all your fears, since extention of advaita philosophy does not differentiate between any emotions. Follow a good guru. Who will teach you how to swim over this bhavasagar (the sansara) fearlessly towards moksha. Fear for what ? You are atma, that is undestroyable,may be you may take many births and many forms of life ,but atma is eternal ,it is trying to come out ,out of the cirlce of life and death (of the body) and finally mingle with the brahman. This your effort will finally make you an yogi. Hence whether you fear or not , one has to go through this cycle, and for that, one needs help of many of concepts embeded in the Hindu phillosophy and their practical implementiaton in a day to day life while on earth. Best wishes.( In lighter vein: let my atma and your atma identify each other when we both become one with the Brahamn finally, leave some ID!!!)
Advaitha does not mean escapism. Maya is the cause of illusion (subject/object split experienced due to confusion and identification of immanent soul or divine with thoughts and body because of 5 senses which leads to ego) but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Maya is the creative shakthi of Shiva. The world and the universe made up of Maya shakthi are absolutely real.
As a westerner... I would suggest you to take it slow.. Hinduism can be complicated... Yet very very simple.. Like the above video... Like lot of people believe it's idol worshipping etc etc... No... You can follow Hinduism just by following righteousness... I am a born hindi but I do not visit temples or do poojas(idol worship) but I follow the path of my destined duty... That's what the supreme Lord Krishna said... Once you are into this then you can choose whatever God/deity you like and worship the supreme God through the....
Duude Are You serious😂😂 i was literally thinking this morning that i would like to learn about advaita vedanta and sure enough you post a video about it xD love how the universe works
Andrew Nguyen check out Alan's Watts "The book: the taboo on knowing who you are" he breaks nonduality down very well, worth a read. Also it's free on youtube
@@soumyabratasahoo3649 sorry it is great but every philosophy is great this superiority complex is the main problem of things happening around the world I think you should re-watch the video to understand the meaning if inclusiveness
because after understanding advaita, you will go to your school principal asking for refund claiming that duality of teacher and student is illusion. 😉😂
These philosophies are not even taught in Indian schools. In fact none of the Indian philosophies including sub-traditions of Vedanta are taught {Advaita (non-dualism),Vishishtadvaita (qualified non-dualism), and Dvaita (dualism)}. Very sad.
I find this video really life-changing. I'm on my exploration now into a new knowledge I've learned from the person I loved and since he left, I've got no one to tell me more about it so I think that watching this just made me have a good start.

It's cool to know that something I came up with through thought experiments and understanding of quantum physics acually have been thought long time ago and has it's own name :) So Advaita Vedanta was and is now my philosophy even I didn't knew about it :)
I would think all modern spiritually stems back to the vedas but I may have to check back up on my religious history time line to confirm for certain. Vedanta for the win for sure though. Ohm on
If you are doing research, do check on Rajiv Malhotra's Books and Videos. The missionaries, Church and many western followers of Vedanta have stolen and appropriated teaching of Vedas and Yoga. Do research on Mindfulness and lucid dreaming, they were just few bits and pieces from vast and profound knowledgebase. Even modern yoga is just a piece of entire yogic practice. OOM!
You've really outdone yourself on this video. It's extremely well explained. Rarely am I motivated by a video to leave a comment. This is extremely good. Thanks.
Pisslam the religion Of strike He is not the founder of Advaitavad However he elobarated it in greatest detail. Ideas like Advaitavad were in existence since the time of Vedas. Whole Upanishads speak in that language
Propounder would be more appropriate. Several people such as brahmarshi Vasishta and Adi guru dattatreya have taught Advaita. Tripura rahasya for example is a conversation between Dattatreya(Guru) and Parashurama after which Parashurama(student and 6th Avataara of Vishnu) proceeds towards malaya hills.
Thank you from everyone. This is the only way forward. This is the greatest philosophy ever. From our hearts keep up the good work your helping thousands people. Bless. Xxxx
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Its a miracle I swear!! I was just checking our replies today, then just after leaving that video where we were arguing with each others I searched about Advaita Vedanta which I've read a little about it, then checked the comment sections and found you!!!!! Wow.
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ I was reading books by René Guénon if you know about him, he is a great French philosopher, he was also a Sufi Muslim and he wrote a lot about Advaita Vendata and even have a book about the Hindu doctrines. He did believe that many Hindu beliefs are of Divine origins.
Shiva is Shava (corpse) without Shakthi (MAYA) which makes up our thoughts/body/world/universe. Shiva and Shakthi always exist together for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. So, Maya or Shakthi is absolutely real. It also means the material world/universe is also real. Maya is the cause of illusion (the subject/object split or immanent Shiva's confusion and identification with thoughts and body due to 5 senses and ego) but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Some Advaitians wrongly interpret Advaitha vedanta by saying Maya is an illusion though which Brahman or Shiva falsely appears as the universe.
@@Dharmicaction Stop showing off ur ego man. Do u even know what is the meaning of shiva ? Shiva means "the auspicious one". "Shantam Shivam advaitam, manyate sa aatma sa vigneyahe" Mandukya 7.

I just recently started studying Advaita Vedanta one year ago and the changes happening in my life is significant. Tackling a problem became effortless, relationship with others is easy because I can understand them and make them understand me easily. Comparing with myself two years ago, physically, my spine got a little straight that I don't need to use a layback chair most of the time and rarely I catch a cold, become sick. Emotionally, I am more empathic to other living creatures. Mentally, it's easy to concentrate on something that requires full-on attention. Sometimes I am needed to work as a dubbing engineer for 3 or 4 hours straight without an air conditioner in a small room, I do alright. Behaviour wise, I am a little more instinctive(instantaneous) that I don't need to think too much before speaking, typing, playing an instrument, etc. The excitement became less(because these are just preparatory steps/results to attain the end goal), so, I don't take note of changes that much as I did in the beginning. If you were to follow this, I would advise you to follow this wholehearted and be true to your own conscience(about non-killing, continence, abstinence, non-hurting, etc). For everyone the karma is different, so the time taken is different for everybody to attain the oneness. But it will happen anyway. Quoting some swami, "Its just time that separates saint from the sinner. The saint has sinned, the sinner can be sanctified." About the religion, all the religion are capable of getting us to the truth(from Sri Ramakrishna's teachings). Respecting every religion, Advaita Vedanta is universal to everyone on this earth. The enemy is our own ignorance, not others.
Cosmic oneness is the essence of Advaita Vedanta. Loved your video and Admire your enthusiasm for Advaita Vedanta, I belong to the family of Mandan Mishra, and Mahishi where the great discourse held between Adi Shankar and him. Lots of love from India!
The Universe playing out the human, not the human thinking it’s playing in the Universe. Really profound. The entire video is so well done and in an impactful way, Thanks.
🙏✨❤️ Yes dear, Advait Vedanta has been acclaimed as the root of philosophy, thinking, thought and very own existence. Greatest of scientists like Schrodinger, Einstein, and philosophers like Arthur Schoppenhauer have pointed the highness of the Vedanta. Watch once Acharya Prashant Ji's Advait Vedant videos for more clarity 🙏✨
There’s so much truth in this video, thank u so much. I’m feeling really grateful to be able to even watch ur videos and it’s an honor that you inspire me and so many ppl, so thank you!!
Dang koi, I totally have thought about this without even knowing about this philosophy. I see these western religions tend to praise that this religions is better than the others vice versa. But it’s bs ! We’re all the same.
Maaya is the power of the supreme Mother (Shakti) and with her blessing she let's you transcend beyond maaya and attain Oneness with Brahman (Shiva&Shakti).
I’ve been looking into this more and more and it really does fall in line with my beliefs. I know u’ve done book recommendations but do u have any introductions to this maybe where I could start?

@@chocomanger6873 Shiva (our true self) becomes shava (corpse) without its intelligent energy (shakthi) and of course nothing can exist without Shiva. Point is non dual Shiva (Advaitha) always exist together with its intelligent energy Shakthi (Dvaitha) for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. This is Sankhya vedic metaphysics which combines Advaitha (shiva) and Dvaitha (shakthi).
If you want to see who and how Advaita Vendata was discovered. Just watch Adi Shankaracharya movie. It is on YT. It is full in Sanskrit with english subtitles, this was the way it was intentionally made.
In silent prayer/meditation when all thoughts stop, it is seen I am consciousness alone. Then it is understood, we are all that. Then the realization, there is only one.
It's clear to me that it's possible that Hermetic Philosophy could have been derived from as far back as 38,000 years ago, during the time Ancient Egypt was in a Golden Age. If Hermes Trismegistus was an reincarnation of Thoth himself, his knowledge and teachings had to come from somewhere, and I think they could be far more ancient and esoteric than we know.
The Kybalion is my all time favourite book aswell. I highly suggest anyone who feels like they have mastered everything in that book checks out The Golden Dawn by Israel Regardie. It's a huge leap, but it's very interesting stuff.
What worries me a little is that It's closely linked to occultism and that gives me this "dark side" vibe so I haven't digged much deeper except Franzs Bardons Initiations in sacred magick. Also many of those books are pretty complex so I'm struggling to find more literature. I would say I understand Kybalions principles fairly well, but when It gets to elements, magic etc I feel like I'm not ready for It. I am really interested in this just because of Kybalion because those principles must be known and I practice them too.
Occult is not bad in itself. It all comes down to the intent of the student/practitioner. When you take into consideration the principle of polarity, it becomes very clear that it can be used for good, but nevertheless can be used for evil.

I recommend Avadhuta Gita(Teachings of a liberated soul), Ashtavakra Gita, Ribhu Gita, Vashishta Gita, Vyadha Gita(teachings of an enlightened butcher) and Viveka choodamani.
In my experience, the "illusion" is born of habit. With practice you can expand your awareness to include all things as part of yourself...the shirt hanging in the closet, the cat, your wife, etc...it is only by habit born from mimicry that we have viewed all things separate from ourselves.

It doesn't mean we are supreme lord. Our nature is of that supreme being. He is all pervasive in his nature, not by his knowledge.
Knowledge is of two types as it is said in Upanishads.
Vidya and avidya.
Vidya belongs to the knowledge of self.
Avidya belongs to the knowledge of material energies.
That all pervasive is not the Vidya, but the supreme destination of all Vidya. He is the source and also the destination.

Legion of Skanks fan Skank Agreed! The world would (will) be vastly different when this message is known. ☮️💗
I'm so happy that my friend sent me this, I've never really been spiritual, believed in anything, or practiced anything. I've always been really close minded and selfish, very self indulgent, and honestly I contributed nothing to society. This video helped me understand EVERYTHING so much better. I can now understand that we are everything and I now feel a sense of purpose and am motivated to do community service and contribute to everything, thank you so much!
Blake Hoekstra me too! 🙏🏾
Blake Hoekstra bless you 🙏
also from a non-dualistic point of view, when i hurt someone, i hurt myself and when i help someone, i help myself /the universe! (law of karma), also being concious means "knowing together" --> non-dual! great video!!
alf ralf I would rather say, when you hurt someone, you hurt none and when you help someone you help none because according to Advaita philosophy, phenomenal universe is an illusion arising inside (cosmic) consciousness (the only one reality) like waves in a ocean...
Hemant -- No ! Karma matters..Advaita of Adi shankaracharya is a totality and higher dimensional reality of Brahman..Brahman alone is real and his maya also real ..Adi shankaracharya clearly said in his commentary of the upanishads the universe exists without existing ..Dual nature of the non dual is also real in material dimension..Maya is too complex subject ..Karma rules !!
I still haven't fully grasped it. I can understand we being the universe like when we look at tiger for example, it's made of cells, but we see a tiger, like we are the cells in universe, but I can't understand that I am everyone else.
@@hsram1985 You contradict yourself examine your comment.
@@hemant05 Phenomenal universe is not an illusion. Some Advaithians wrongly interpreted Advaitha vedanta by saying that Maya is an illusion through which Brahman or absolute reality falsely appears as the universe.
Maya is the cause of illusion but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Maya is the creative Shakthi of Shiva. So, Maya is absolutely real ( world and the universe are real)
So, Advaitha (shiva/non dual) is INCOMPLETE without Dvaitha (shakthi/dual) - Shiva and Shakthi always exist together for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. This is Sankhya vedic metaphysics which is well validated by embodied experience and double slit quantum experiment.
I am hindu still you have hundreds of times more knowledge about hinduism than me . 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Guru ji ki jai ho !
Majority of Hindus don't know about Vedanta philosophies.
It has to do with our education system and politics.
Harsha BV Absolutely right bro
That is what Britishers do ,
They destroy our education system . Even Vote bank politics , not allow to make these Philosophies part of Education.
Even Vedas , Bhagawat Gita are For Mankind , Humanity . It's just not thing of religion because hinduism is not a religion it's way of life.
Absolutely.
Harsha BV Precisely, It's our education system who is both killing us and our religion.
aditya raj. It's killing Indian society also, Hindus won't read GITA or any moral works of Hinduism and they complete there education, take-up jobs and become corrupt.

@@cnk8766 Illusion caused by Maya. But It does not mean Maya = Illusion. What is Maya? Maya is the creative shakthi of Shiva. So, Maya is absolutely real NOT an illusion.
@@indianmilitary bruh u said the samething but in different way of seeing , u ended like he said there lol , maya = illusion of separation , not tgat maya is an illusion LOL
@@CristyanBernardes Thé subject/object split is not an illusion or false. It is temporary or relative existence. eg Tasks in your office may .be temporary but they are not false. So, you have to finish them. It is called mithya. In thé same way, thé subject and object split is temporary not an illusion or false. But what i meant by " illusion caused by maya shakthi" was the false identification with thoughts and body due to Maya shakthi.

Purely awesome!!!! We are all one! Love this!! One of the reasons why I follow Hinduism. If only everyone would follow this we would all be at peace. Awesome video!!!
Love to hear about Yogananda video!! Namaste!!
Come to India and see how the followers of Hinduism treat their fellow beings. Dont be under illusions about any kind of "ism"
I took notes! This is the knowledge and text that I’ve been searching for
Welcome to sanatan dharma..... Peace from India 🇮🇳
Check out my UA-cam. Swami Tadatmananda is a good teacher .
Warning:
Be careful though, it is very easy to get lost into all other different practices, rituals and philosophies in Hinduism, and all the so called gurus will drag you into something and then scam you. Stick to Advaita Vedanta, and Advaita Vedanta alone.
What is Brahman and Atman(consciousness/mind):
Only Brahman exists, it is timeless, spaceless, formless, eternal and infinite. Also exists within it are Atman (consciousness/mind) of individual beings like you and me or any other conscious entity. But this individualness or separateness seen by the mind is actually an illusion of the mind. In reality everything, everywhere, in everytime is actually one and is Brahman.
What is the goal:
What we individuals can do is train our mind to make it understand that the separateness it is seeing is merely an illusion. When the mind knows it is actually not separate, an individual is said to have reached Nirvana. It has penetrated the veil of illusion and witnesses the reality as it is. Mind has realised that it is indeed the same thing as the Brahman. Put clearly, it realises it is the Brahman.
How to reach this state of oneness:
Seek truth from every possible direction, understand reality, read scientific theories like Quantam mechanics, Theory of Relativity, Physics, Chemistry and Biology and try to understand the parallels. Do not believe any other thing until you have logically broken it down using intellect. Practice mind control everyday by doing meditation because the mind can look through the veil only when it is already a well educated and a well trained mind.
That's it. Simple. Here we also need to realise that it is a philosophy, not science. Philosophy turns into science when there are repeated testable observations
Benefits of thinking this way:
Everything is one and the same, every human is nothing but one and the only, hence creates peace, harmony and stability in society.
Thank you for sharing this video! I have recently started studying Advaita Vedanta, and practicing Yoga. I have been reading the texts of Swarmi Vivekananda, but can sometimes find it hard to grasp the full nature of the philosophy this way. Your videos are a fantastic and engaging way to learn about my new spiritual path.
I truly hope you continue to speak about Vedanta on your channel. It is such an inclusive and warm way of viewing life and all that is attached to it.
Thank you again, Koi!
From a loyal and interested viewer! 🌱🙏💭💖
Read advaita vedanta written by Adi shankracharya
Seriously Brother... Thank you! I thought I would be the only one to wonder such a philosophy. I would sometimes think that I'm crazy. To know that I have actually stumbled upon such a vast wondrous thought that is thousands of years old makes me feel... not alone. Thank you!
Dear bro neraly 1billion Hindu are with you
That's what makes Hinduism/sanatan Dharma so practical... It goes deep inside your mind...
loved this video koi!!
my mom has been studying this philosophy in an online academy for about 2 years now, we often chat and she explains me some of the concepts of vedanta, i really think is one of the most complete and beautiful philisophies
Can you share the link to enroll in your mom's online academy? I am interested in learning more. Thanks
I recently quit following Christianity and just last night was looking into the philosophies and teachings of Advaita Vedanta. I open up UA-cam tonight and see you upload this video!! Thank You Vishuddha!
I'm telling you guys the universe always listens to you, knows you and provides for you! Trust the universe and it will show you the way.
it is a shame you have stopped following the Lord Jesus who is the ONLY way to liberation. non-duality is an illusion, it is not impirical at all in any way. The Upanishads are great to read but do not explain the experience we are. It's true that brahman/God cannot be explained though. We are seperate from our neighbours even though at the same time we should be brothers, I am me and you are you and non-duality is simply illusion. You can't wish reality away.
@Raj Narayanan it is going into trans state to meet evil in disguise. Thats all.
@Raj Narayanan God is more real to me in everything, than a mere experience or a feeling, i found true God, did not just accept i tested it. This is just another superstitious belief and it just makes to forget you being than relate deal and experience it. Yoga is a way this stupidity. FATHER God,Jesus and Holy Spirit are real they make you live with out sin in fleshly life , others just make you hypnotize and forget things and make you feel good. Its rubbish.
gary12345 none but your god is reality? It’s too hard to believe we’re all one but you believe everything in the Bible yo be accurate lmao.
@Raj Narayanan Rubbish, why should i believe in nothing ness, when i have proof of living God, Satan has a new trick to fool people to nothing ness, you will be eternally lost to hell and damnation. Save your self from it. Only as long as you have breath you have a chance, once a person dies he is lost eternally. This is a wicked trick by satan. Stand against it in Jesus name.
We are the eyes of the universe looking back at itself .

Thank you for your videos. In one of your videos regarding religion I asked a simple question about a Hindu practice and I was met with love and new friends. Your viewers are so kind in a whole no matter where or how I continue to worship. And I thank you for opening up the love through your videos.
Love these types of videos 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Keeping it real & being authentic with who you are. I like where this channel is going 🔱✨
What resonates so much with me with Advaita Vedanta, is that by seeking within, I have not only come to the same conclusion (without even knowing what that philosophy was), but also experienced it as an undeniable truth.
Much love to you Vishuddha prabhu! I've recently started on the path of Advaita and it has really changed my life and altered my perceptions! Thanks to Sri Ramakrishna, Adi Shankaracharya, and many other Advaita teachers I think I've trully found the path for me. Ram Ram
I’ve often thought of existence this way. I just downloaded a book on Advaita Vedanta
which book?
The Essence of Enlightenment
Read vedanta with some guru it will be the best for you
Me too...
I would recommend you to read Drig drishya Viveka and watching videos of Swami Sarvapriyananda. You'll be pulled in consciousness
Great overview of Vedanta! Thanks Visuddha :) Vedanta totally changed my life and set my mind free after years of suffering horribly. If anyone is interested in pursuing it further I highly recommend James Swartz who is probably the best western teacher of Vedanta, he’s incredible.
thanks ill look him up!
Koi Fresco *Vishuddha Das* his website shiningworld.com has a wealth of information :) keep up the amazing work Vishuddha, I love your channel and love you :)
Try to read Swami Vivekananda, the man brought Vedanta to America
amoyaan0 actually Vedas contained much more knowledge than we know today ...Because islamic invasion in tried to destroy every sign of hinduism.......
As an Indian can I get better understanding?
great video Koi! I'm from israel and I'm 18 years old . people always told me that buddhism and hinduism are Idol worship
because of the statues. but It's the complete opposite
?I really like your content . can you make a video about combining Zen buddhism and nihilism
Keep up the good work
Ram Ram
Hindu's worships no idols(it is a propaganda of the .. )India knew that this universe is holographic long ago(now quantum physics tells the same which came from Vedas not vice versa).Idols are immersed by "Prana pratista" by universal life force which governs everything on this cosmos.It is immersed by Sanskrit Mantras,,All ancient hindu temples emits energy.. Temples are mathematical structures built upon Vedic vastu ..Most modern temples are improperly built ,so they work on the dimension of "Observation" only .To understand hinduism properly this planet will take another 200 yrs .
Natan Gershanov ...hari om.. Plz read swami Vivekananda, swami sivanand, maharshi Raman.
Lots of love to Israel from India my brother
Stone deities in Hindu temples serve for 2 purposes. They act as symbolic representations or cosmic allegories of vedic metaphysics. They also act as objects for focus and meditation in the presence of vibrations created by Sanskrit mantras and temple architecture
Hinduism is really ancient.
Bhakti/worship is just one of the ways to explore spirituality and that connection with divine and yourself and from west point of view that's all they can see, whilst practicing yoga lol.
Yoga is another way you become conscious they'll practice yoga and yet demean Hinduism bcz that's what they have been shown. Not their fault if they don't know but if they despite knowing say that then that's just ill
I seriously hope your next video doesn't get taken down because your lessons about Spiritually is interesting and amazing because everytime I try to watch some of your videos it's gone and I'm glad you keep making videos and I can't wait to see more .
Thanks for this video. I always enjoy your presentations. Fir a long time I thought if myself as aTheravada Buddhist, but recently a learned Theravada practitioner was a little upset with me over statements I made on social media. He said, “your are not a Buddhist. You’re an advaita vedantist. Go back and read the early sutras! So, congratulations to both of us on our evolution.
This is the kind of thinking that shifted my view of reality so immensely once I started my spiritual awakening journey. It is a huge consciousness shift. That is going from viewing yourself as a human being inside of and apart from the universe, to a viewing yourself as the universe in human form.
Love this. Love life. For this jiva, Advaita brought the end of decades of seeking.
I have been thinking about this a lot recently because it really helps me to ground and release my fears and feeling of separateness. I will have to look into hinduism more! It feels like something I always knew as a child (until taught otherwise)
You will get over all your fears, since extention of advaita philosophy does not differentiate between any emotions. Follow a good guru. Who will teach you how to swim over this bhavasagar (the sansara) fearlessly towards moksha. Fear for what ? You are atma, that is undestroyable,may be you may take many births and many forms of life ,but atma is eternal ,it is trying to come out ,out of the cirlce of life and death (of the body) and finally mingle with the brahman. This your effort will finally make you an yogi. Hence whether you fear or not , one has to go through this cycle, and for that, one needs help of many of concepts embeded in the Hindu phillosophy and their practical implementiaton in a day to day life while on earth. Best wishes.( In lighter vein: let my atma and your atma identify each other when we both become one with the Brahamn finally, leave some ID!!!)
Advaitha does not mean escapism. Maya is the cause of illusion (subject/object split experienced due to confusion and identification of immanent soul or divine
with thoughts and body because of 5 senses which leads to ego) but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Maya is the creative shakthi of Shiva. The world and the universe made up of Maya shakthi are absolutely real.
As a westerner... I would suggest you to take it slow.. Hinduism can be complicated... Yet very very simple.. Like the above video...
Like lot of people believe it's idol worshipping etc etc... No... You can follow Hinduism just by following righteousness... I am a born hindi but I do not visit temples or do poojas(idol worship) but I follow the path of my destined duty... That's what the supreme Lord Krishna said...
Once you are into this then you can choose whatever God/deity you like and worship the supreme God through the....

Why didn’t I ever get taught any of this in school :(
Conner Cox never expect anyone to tell u these things anywhere dawg
Conner Cox no one told your teachers those things in there school that why 😁😁😁😁
because after understanding advaita, you will go to your school principal asking for refund claiming that duality of teacher and student is illusion. 😉😂
These philosophies are not even taught in Indian schools. In fact none of the Indian philosophies including sub-traditions of Vedanta are taught {Advaita (non-dualism),Vishishtadvaita (qualified non-dualism), and Dvaita (dualism)}.
Very sad.
Because it would lead you to live a beautiful life our government wants you to be controlled not incontrol.

It's cool to know that something I came up with through thought experiments and understanding of quantum physics acually have been thought long time ago and has it's own name :) So Advaita Vedanta was and is now my philosophy even I didn't knew about it :)
I would think all modern spiritually stems back to the vedas but I may have to check back up on my religious history time line to confirm for certain. Vedanta for the win for sure though. Ohm on
If you are doing research, do check on Rajiv Malhotra's Books and Videos. The missionaries, Church and many western followers of Vedanta have stolen and appropriated teaching of Vedas and Yoga. Do research on Mindfulness and lucid dreaming, they were just few bits and pieces from vast and profound knowledgebase. Even modern yoga is just a piece of entire yogic practice. OOM!
The modern day Islam and Christianity invaded India just to destroy our religion
You've really outdone yourself on this video. It's extremely well explained. Rarely am I motivated by a video to leave a comment. This is extremely good. Thanks.
Great content! Great delivery! Glad I found your channel🌀 thank you!
Jagatguru adi Shankaracharya is the co founder of advatia Vedanta.108 Upanishads ,Brhamasanhita ,and Bhagawat geeta is the aspects of this
Pisslam the religion Of strike
He is not the founder of Advaitavad
However he elobarated it in greatest detail. Ideas like Advaitavad were in existence since the time of Vedas. Whole Upanishads speak in that language
Propounder would be more appropriate. Several people such as brahmarshi Vasishta and Adi guru dattatreya have taught Advaita.
Tripura rahasya for example is a conversation between Dattatreya(Guru) and Parashurama after which Parashurama(student and 6th Avataara of Vishnu) proceeds towards malaya hills.
Thank you from everyone. This is the only way forward. This is the greatest philosophy ever. From our hearts keep up the good work your helping thousands people. Bless. Xxxx

OM NAMAH SIVAYA from germany ^^
Fantastic video summing up the advaita philosophy. Thank you for this 💛
Non-dualistic Advaita Vedanta is the best at describing the experience that I am. Neti, neti. I am nothing that can be perceived or conceived.
let me know how your money philosophy works out
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Aren't you the guy who was arguing with me on Veedus?
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ Its a miracle I swear!! I was just checking our replies today, then just after leaving that video where we were arguing with each others I searched about Advaita Vedanta which I've read a little about it, then checked the comment sections and found you!!!!! Wow.
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ It was called "Quran and Sunnah", you replied to my comment. I'm from Egypt, are you Indian?
@Hᴜꜱᴛʟᴇ Lᴏʏ I was reading books by René Guénon if you know about him, he is a great French philosopher, he was also a Sufi Muslim and he wrote a lot about Advaita Vendata and even have a book about the Hindu doctrines. He did believe that many Hindu beliefs are of Divine origins.
Truth is Shiva and Shiva is beautiful...Ram Ram...
Shiva is Shava (corpse) without Shakthi (MAYA) which makes up our thoughts/body/world/universe. Shiva and Shakthi always exist together for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. So, Maya or Shakthi is absolutely real. It also means the material world/universe is also real. Maya is the cause of illusion (the subject/object split or immanent Shiva's confusion and identification with thoughts and body due to 5 senses and ego) but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Some Advaitians wrongly interpret Advaitha vedanta by saying Maya is an illusion though which Brahman or Shiva falsely appears as the universe.

Stop showing off ur ego man.
Do u even know what is the meaning of shiva ?
Shiva means "the auspicious one".
"Shantam Shivam advaitam, manyate sa aatma sa vigneyahe"

Vishnu means :- all pervasive one.
Shiva means :- the auspicious one.
Vishnu who is Shiva, or Shiva who is Vishnu. All means the all pervasive that is auspicious or the auspicious which is all pervasive. 🕉️.
I just recently started studying Advaita Vedanta one year ago and the changes happening in my life is significant. Tackling a problem became effortless, relationship with others is easy because I can understand them and make them understand me easily. Comparing with myself two years ago, physically, my spine got a little straight that I don't need to use a layback chair most of the time and rarely I catch a cold, become sick. Emotionally, I am more empathic to other living creatures. Mentally, it's easy to concentrate on something that requires full-on attention. Sometimes I am needed to work as a dubbing engineer for 3 or 4 hours straight without an air conditioner in a small room, I do alright. Behaviour wise, I am a little more instinctive(instantaneous) that I don't need to think too much before speaking, typing, playing an instrument, etc. The excitement became less(because these are just preparatory steps/results to attain the end goal), so, I don't take note of changes that much as I did in the beginning.
If you were to follow this, I would advise you to follow this wholehearted and be true to your own conscience(about non-killing, continence, abstinence, non-hurting, etc). For everyone the karma is different, so the time taken is different for everybody to attain the oneness. But it will happen anyway. Quoting some swami, "Its just time that separates saint from the sinner. The saint has sinned, the sinner can be sanctified."
About the religion, all the religion are capable of getting us to the truth(from Sri Ramakrishna's teachings). Respecting every religion, Advaita Vedanta is universal to everyone on this earth. The enemy is our own ignorance, not others.
Awesome!! Thank you so much for this Video!
Feel so blessed to have been named Advaith 😇

There’s so much truth in this video, thank u so much. I’m feeling really grateful to be able to even watch ur videos and it’s an honor that you inspire me and so many ppl, so thank you!!
Dang koi, I totally have thought about this without even knowing about this philosophy. I see these western religions tend to praise that this religions is better than the others vice versa. But it’s bs ! We’re all the same.
Maaya is the power of the supreme Mother (Shakti) and with her blessing she let's you transcend beyond maaya and attain Oneness with Brahman (Shiva&Shakti).
I’ve been looking into this more and more and it really does fall in line with my beliefs. I know u’ve done book recommendations but do u have any introductions to this maybe where I could start?
gospels of ramakrishna and bhagatwat gita with commentary of adi shankarachary is the 2 greatest books you can get on this topic.

This is my favourite video wow can wait for more video on Advaita
Please just keep teaching this.
I'm empty,
Therefore
I am Full.
viewing ourselves as empty of the separate self allows us to see we are full and are everything.
Oneness=love
Every psychedelic trip I’ve had has shown me this
If you want to see who and how Advaita Vendata was discovered. Just watch Adi Shankaracharya movie. It is on YT. It is full in Sanskrit with english subtitles, this was the way it was intentionally made.
Thanks for the clarity in your breakdown of the oneness we all exist in.
Thank you! this video is long over do. SITA RAM.
In silent prayer/meditation when all thoughts stop, it is seen I am consciousness alone. Then it is understood, we are all that. Then the realization, there is only one.
Please make a video on Hermetic Philosophy!! If you know anything about it I aswell as others would love to hear your views! Infinite Love💚
It's clear to me that it's possible that Hermetic Philosophy could have been derived from as far back as 38,000 years ago, during the time Ancient Egypt was in a Golden Age. If Hermes Trismegistus was an reincarnation of Thoth himself, his knowledge and teachings had to come from somewhere, and I think they could be far more ancient and esoteric than we know.
YESSSS, Please!!! I'm so into this, but this doesn't appear in public, no one talks about It. Kybalion is still my all time favorite book.
The Kybalion is my all time favourite book aswell. I highly suggest anyone who feels like they have mastered everything in that book checks out The Golden Dawn by Israel Regardie. It's a huge leap, but it's very interesting stuff.
What worries me a little is that It's closely linked to occultism and that gives me this "dark side" vibe so I haven't digged much deeper except Franzs Bardons Initiations in sacred magick. Also many of those books are pretty complex so I'm struggling to find more literature. I would say I understand Kybalions principles fairly well, but when It gets to elements, magic etc I feel like I'm not ready for It. I am really interested in this just because of Kybalion because those principles must be known and I practice them too.
Occult is not bad in itself. It all comes down to the intent of the student/practitioner. When you take into consideration the principle of polarity, it becomes very clear that it can be used for good, but nevertheless can be used for evil.
Amazing breakdown! 🙏

I recommend Avadhuta Gita(Teachings of a liberated soul), Ashtavakra Gita, Ribhu Gita, Vashishta Gita, Vyadha Gita(teachings of an enlightened butcher) and Viveka choodamani.

I love Advaita. Its no 1 in spirituality. It is Oneness. Non duality.
In my experience, the "illusion" is born of habit. With practice you can expand your awareness to include all things as part of yourself...the shirt hanging in the closet, the cat, your wife, etc...it is only by habit born from mimicry that we have viewed all things separate from ourselves.
Love The Concepts In This Video. Thanks For Sharing!
Duality as an illusion 😍
This universe , greed , lust , anger everything is an illusion . Maaya
@@times2508 Maya is the cause of illusion (the subject/object split experienced by human egoistic mind) but it does not mean Maya = Illusion. Maya is the creative shakthi of Shiva without which nothing exists. So, Maya is absolutely real. Some Advaithians wrongly interpret Advaitha Vedanta by saying that Maya is an illusion through which Brahman falsely appears as the universe.
