@@dr.tarunkumardanda8702 Shiva (athma) and Maya or Shakthi or intelligent energy (thoughts/body/world/universe) always exist together for the perpetual duality cycles to happen. Maya is the cause of experience of subject/object split and athma's confusion and identification with thoughts and body (due to ego) which disappears in samadhi or non dual state. But it does not mean maya = illusion. Maya is the creative shakthi of Shiva and it is absolutely real. Even after the pralaya of the universe, maya or prakriti exists in its subtlest form as a state of potentiality within Shiva at the juncture of concealment/manifestation duality cycle of the universe.

It is available to all , all over the world Earth. There may be different Forms , species in different parts of world. But the Truth , godliness is available to all. Only the conditions of living , geographical, social etc. are conducive in different degrees in different regions. In fact , humanity has to rethink , revisit the conventional idea , thought that man was primitive and by now has " Progressed ". The Scriptures and great seers have told that Man was Full , or spiritually Complete , even when he was created , having come from God
The ancient Indian sages ( Rishis) encountered these truths in the depth of their samadhis and passed it down to posterity in the form of the vedas , Upanishads and Vedantic teachings. Buddhism is an integral part of this dharmic civilization.
Namaskar everyone! I'm no scholar but I've been around for nigh on 75 yrs, ( this time ) and I cannot think of having listened to a more profound, enlightening talk than this one, ever. Thanks Swami ji. Namaskar
I love that the Swami has the solid understanding of hundreds of years of philosophical thought and has cultivated an escape from the worldly mirage and then takes his time to hang out and give lectures and teach the rationale. He could just as easily meditate all day. But then again, probably not. He seems to very clearly understand what he is called to do in this manifestation and that is incredibly wonderful.
I Thank to rishis who wrote veda. I Thank to Hindu encients who practiced so long. I Thank to Ramakrishna who taught to Vivekananda. I Thank to Vivekananda for seting up the Vedantha society. I thank to the swamiji for interpring the same. I thank to UA-cam for make me watch this. Thanks for all souls who made feel this I (aham) thank full and greatfull.
Swamiji has an excellent memory, quoting from so many great men and their books. One of the best read men in this present times and an exceptional teacher....Maya gets a good dissection in his class room 😆😅 thank you so much Swamiji.🙏..it is a treat listening to you ...
Swami Sarvapriyananda is such an amazing Vedic scholar and philosopher ; and also an amazing teacher ! Swami-ji really knows his stuff ! I love listening to him . We are very fortunate to have his classes on you tube .
The Sutras and the Vedas are the Ultimate treasures of wisdom, thanks to the Hindu (Sanatana Dharma) seers and sages. We need Sanatana Dharma to be realised in the world today more than ever to bring peace and love for all life . Om tat sat
I find Sadhguru’s talks very superficial compared to swamiji ‘s. We get pure Advaitha knowledge here. Real gen is listening to self enquiry method of Ramana Maharshi, which is very practical
Sadhuguru knows a few aspects of raja yoga and that's all. He never emphasises the necessity of Yama and niyamas even. He just speaks English fluently and manages to deceive people. He also has no knowledge of the indepth knowledge of the upanishads the basis of every vedantic Darshana, (the thing we call hinduism is nothing but vedanta. The yoga darshan however is older than vedantic schools mostly as it takes from sankhya more than vedanta) just superficiality at best. My suspicions in his authenticity rose when he started talking about swami vivekananda's life while having no knowledge of it except superficiality. That's the same reason I dislike western philosophers, too superficial. Buddhist schools of thought like in Nagarjuna's Madhayamaka philosophy, Dharmakirti's Yogacara-Sautrantika philosophy and other schools are much more profound than these. But the most profound philosophy is Gaudapada's Ajativada and Swami vivekananda's interpretation of Maya. These two coupled with advaita vedanta makes advaita the most profound philosophy in the whole world. Sadhguru clearly dodges questions on advaita vedanta and that shows his utter ignorance. It will do you great good to stay away from such conmen.
These talks are illuminating. They have opened to gates of my Panchakosha. How I like this talk on Maya. Especially the end when he invokes the shlokas from Shwetashvatara Upanishad and the prayer to let this awakening come to all of us in this life itself. Fortunate are those who have listened to him.
Hearing Swamiji for 10mins.. He will make you busy for the next 6 months by referring to all these external philosophers and their books... I wanna read all!
Beautiful talk and thanks for introducing the book by Prof. Grimes. At 33:46 the crowd laughs when swamiji says the parents came to fight. These parents have to exercise the same bravado when their kids do it to them. This is a great path... The Hindu world needs more swamijis and swaminis to go to the interiors of India. My pranams to swamiji.
What an incredible memory to recite so many stories and quote passages from books and scriptures without hesitation! Wowed by your gift to seamlessly share your tremendous spiritual knowledge that is so enticing. 🙏🏼 Thank you 😊
Swamiji you are the best teacher in this so called modern times. There seems no question which you do not have answer to. You are an epitome of wisdom and knowledge. It's blessing of the Lord that I get to view your talks. Koti koti pranaam Swamiji.
44:01 the more we try, the more our hunger and barrenness increases, yet we are drawn again and again like moths to a fire and this is Maya ... until crippled, we are swept away by death, and this is Maya
Thank you Guru Ji old friend. I've noticed great fun in Focusing Attention on another while they Speak, in person, recording, what ever- and they stumble and stutter as if This Interdimensional Cable TV Show Knows It Is Being Watched. Yours Truly, OM
My humble greeting to all. I thank the creator of this video for bringing us divine knowledge and thus enlightening our minds. Finding fellow seekers is a rare thing and I will like to use this space to share with you all something about my own Guru, Swami Shri Ajay Gurudev. Guruji, started his inner journey at an early age. He did not have a Daihik (one with a physical body) guru, but was initiated on the path to self-realization by Mahavir Swami. Guruji underwent many trials and tribulations, but at the age of 13 he emerged victorious, self-realized! Guruji has been a beacon of light for many, including myself. I have first-hand witnessed many of his leelas and what some might call, Miracles. Due to his grace, I am working in the USA and also treading the path of yoga swiftly. Guruji does not believe in fame or building ashrams, despite living in the heart of New Delhi he has stayed fairly anonymous and meets only a handful of people who are sincere and want to tread the spiritual path. Guruji, a while back took on the initiative of sharing his knowledge through building a website thetreasuredivine.com/home/. The objective of this website is to guide seekers treading the spiritual path and also to bring the positive vibrations of a True saint to one and all. I hope this humble initiative will be helpful in your spiritual journey and may the divine principle enlighten your lives.
The sheer amount of books,philosophers he is quoting making me dizzy thinking how vast his knowledge is across multiple specialities and what talent to find a common link among all of them!Wow..Pranam!
sairam swami sarvapriyananda ji ..thanks for starting the project of teaching vedanta as per swami vivekananda. used to find him very difficult to understand but your introduction is opening him to us all. i am begining to now understand Jnana Yoga by vivekananda this time. please continue discussing his talks given at various times on Jnana yoga. many thanks and gratitute. asha.
I am an Ex-Muslim. I love this swami. I use to watch his lectures on daily basis for the last few months. This lecture is an other masterpiece. However, I don't agree with Swami's point if regarding agnostic people (around 1:11:00). I myself is now agnostic. But I do believe in spirituality. In my opinion thinkers have found may truths but nothing is final and absolute. There are probibilities and possibilities but nothing is last word. Every philosophy and every religion has some excellent things, some good things and even some bad things. To me Hindu and Buddhist philosophies are far far better than Islam.
It is great that being an agnostic also you are listening to the spiritual talks. I am sure if you keep on listening to the Swamy your veil of ignorance will go off. You will start realising yourself as a part of the humanity as a whole. There is nothing agnostic or nothing spiritual, knowledge of owns self that matters. Thanks.
Pranams Gurudev your clarity depth and exposition of Adwaitha Vedanta are simply exlemparary An Amsha of Takhur maharaja has reincarnated as Swami Sarapriyananda I am simply amazed at the knowledge of your students too Jai Sri Ramakrishna Maharaj ke
I love this spiritual leaders commentary. I haven't watched this yet but his discussion on the Buddha vs Hinduism was a great discussion. A bit hard for a Rookie like me to understand but very fascinating. I was once a Christian and then renounced Christianity and came to love Judaism and the Kabbalah and I still love Kabbalah teachings. I find the Old Testament now too violent to read and I believe in the truths of the Vedas and Buddha . I don't know fully and who ever does but the ideas in Hinduism and Buddhism ring so true to me. So much to learn. Thank you for these great teachings!
Swamiji, your lectures and explanations to the otherwise most difficult subjects is inspiring and exciting! I never miss a single video of yours. Thanks you.
So blessed to hear your talks. Just can’t comprehend how well read you are and use such practical examples to present the most complicated principles. Humble Pranaams.
At the end of it all, SwamiJi prays to Sri Ramakrishna and the Divine Mother Sri Sarada; such a humility. A thorough Vedanta Srotrian and an unparalleled Orator. He is Divine Mothers Prasad to the world of Seekers. May She bestow him with health and longevity🙏
If we are honest we all know that we never see a world but are always only looking at our own mind. Somehow we tend to forget and ignore this fact. But when we honestly look without assuming anything it will be seen for what it really is: Maya. 😘
Oh my god ! This is amazing . We think that this person may be judging us , he may be abusing us , they hates us , they loves us . The world is nothing but a mind
Even after listening this lecture again and again for two hours, one is Joyce and tension free. Think how godly u become after attaining it with practice.. thank u swamijee

Swamiji! I feel this talk is as opaque as Maya, but it's Vidya Maya. I want to cling to this. Please chant the truth everytime, it is the blessings of Mahamaya herself.
I got accidentally here and wow, this series of lectures got me hooked instantly like meth; I'm addicted to Swami, he's my dealer of wisdom. And this too is Maya
Beautiful Synopsis by Swami Sarvapriyananda; a walking talking encyclopedia of knowledge in Adawita Vedanta and most contemporary Western religious philosophies. The more fruits you add to your smoothie, the better it tastes. As Vivekananda said, A frog croaking loud and hard from his own will never admit that anything can be bigger than the confines of his own well. In that respect, we should welcome the intermingling of diverse philosophies and belief systems. A good example of Maya is like watching a movie in the theatre. We are so immersed in the characters that we laugh and cry with them for the entire duration of the film but as soon as the lights are turned back on, we see the blank white screen. Neither the movie characters were real, nor the screen but only the seer is real. This is what Aashtavakra said to Janaka 'Neither that was real, nor this is real, Only you are real'.
Swamij is a pure heart and blessed with a gift of Wisdom. His exposition of our existence albeit through Maya's veil, to desperate seekers he clears enough mud from the water for a quenching drink of Truth. 🙏 OM Shanti Shivoham 💙
THE TRUTH ABOUT "SWAMI" VIVEKANANDA & THE RAMAKRISHNA MISSION: Some of the following three points apply to practically any "religious" organization, not only to the Ramakrishna Mission/Vedanta Society. Nota bene: I refer to the founder of that pseudo-religious organization by his proper name, Mr. Narendranath Datta, and NOT the name by which he is addressed by the deluded fanatics who follow him, "Swami Vivekananda", for reasons that should become obvious when reading the following. 1. A spiritual master ought to be a member of the Holy Priesthood (that is, the "brāhmaṇa" class of society, usually wrongly transliterated as "Brahmin"). Mr. Datta was a member of the working-class ("śūdra", in Sanskrit), since he failed to exhibit key characteristics of a genuine brāhmaṇa. Firstly, he was a drug addict (he died at a young age, due to lung cancer caused by chain smoking tobacco). 🚬 Secondly, he was a carnist. A carnist is a person who considers animals unworthy of moral protection (he virtually suckled on the teats of cows, thus causing undue harm to both himself, to the cows from whom he stole their milk, and of course the poor, innocent calves, who were robbed of their food). 🍼 🐄 🥛 In order to learn of the prerequisites for being a TRUE BRĀHMAṆA, email me for a copy of the Holiest of All Holy Scriptures, "A Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity" ("FISH"). 2. The Ramakrishna Mission/Vedanta Society condones the two MOST PERNICIOUS institutions in the history of the planet - democracy and feminism. There is insufficient space in this comment section to properly explicate the reasons why democracy (or, for that matter, any system of non-monarchical governance) and feminism are so adharmic and evil, so, if you are one of the very few souls who is desirous of understanding my reason for stating the above, you should find my Email address in the "About" page of my UA-cam channel. 3. Because, as mentioned previously, Mr. Datta was an ultra-fundamentalist pseudo-religious fanatic, and an ignorant "śūdra", none of his disciples and grand-disciples, et cetera, can ever attain to self-realization, for as Lord Jesus Christ rightly stated two millennia ago, "A student can never be greater than his teacher". Therefore, if one has ambition to become even more "realized" than Mr. Datta, it is ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE that he seek training from a guru who is on a higher state of spiritual understanding and realization than Mr. Datta, or any of the current Ramakrishna Mission "sannyasins". Just to provide a couple of examples for the above accusation, the current head of the Advaita Society of New York, Mr. Vishvarupa (so-called "Swami" Sarvapriyānanda) is a self-confessed candāla (dog-eater), since he consumes the bloody carcasses of poor, innocent animals, and of course, as a member of that demonic organization, he promulgates the second-most pernicious institution in history (feminism). Furthermore, the British woman who hosts his UA-cam channel, Diane Crafford, according to her Facebook profile picture, condones not only unjustified animal slaughter, but she supports the murder of even poor, innocent, defenseless, unborn humans. 👿 In order to study dharma and yoga with the current World Teacher Himself, search for "Jagadguru Svami Vegananda" in Facebook. 😇 सत्यमेव जयते! 😇

1:05:45 Schopenhauer : I consider no other study in the world as beneficial as the study of the Upanishads for translation except perhaps the original. These Upanishads have been the solace of my life and will be the solace of my death.
First chapter of The world as will and Idea (Schopenhauer's book) reads, 'What I shall say in these volumes was best known to the ancient Hindus. They called it Maya.'

Now here's a first - he's convinced me that holiness, sanctity - is also funny! Its the one quality I'd never associated with that level of serious confrontation with reality. Just brilliant! Thank you India for preserving the wisdom, beauty and strength of these insights! Yours is a world heritage culture indeed!

It is available to all , all over the world Earth. There may be different Forms , species in different parts of world. But the Truth , godliness is available to all. Only the conditions of living , geographical, social etc. are conducive in different degrees in different regions.
In fact , humanity has to rethink , revisit the conventional idea , thought that man was primitive and by now has " Progressed ". The Scriptures and great seers have told that Man was Full , or spiritually Complete , even when he was created , having come from God
@@nikithanayaer6302 loosing or losing ?
The ancient Indian sages ( Rishis) encountered these truths in the depth of their samadhis and passed it down to posterity in the form of the vedas , Upanishads and Vedantic teachings. Buddhism is an integral part of this dharmic civilization.

@Greg LeJacques you do not understand this system of philosophy so stop denigrating it.
Namaskar everyone! I'm no scholar but I've been around for nigh on 75 yrs, ( this time ) and I cannot think of having listened to a more profound, enlightening talk than this one, ever. Thanks Swami ji. Namaskar
Couldn't agree more. I am 75 too. Love from the Dehradun, India in theHimalayas.
I love that the Swami has the solid understanding of hundreds of years of philosophical thought and has cultivated an escape from the worldly mirage and then takes his time to hang out and give lectures and teach the rationale. He could just as easily meditate all day. But then again, probably not. He seems to very clearly understand what he is called to do in this manifestation and that is incredibly wonderful.
I Thank to rishis who wrote veda. I Thank to Hindu encients who practiced so long. I Thank to Ramakrishna who taught to Vivekananda. I Thank to Vivekananda for seting up the Vedantha society. I thank to the swamiji for interpring the same. I thank to UA-cam for make me watch this. Thanks for all souls who made feel this I (aham) thank full and greatfull.
I can listen his speech whole day 🙏
How to u feel
same here
Me too. So much wisdom
Same here. It's a beautiful flow of flowering of sublime illumination of self discovery. Thank you so much.
Absolutely
Swamiji has an excellent memory, quoting from so many great men and their books. One of the best read men in this present times and an exceptional teacher....Maya gets a good dissection in his class room 😆😅 thank you so much Swamiji.🙏..it is a treat listening to you ...
Never seen a more intellectual human being, truly.

Whenever Swamiji says "This is Maya". ... My inner soul : Smiles.
Finest punchline in the whole Universe!
Swami Sarvapriyananda is such an amazing Vedic scholar and philosopher ; and also an amazing teacher ! Swami-ji really knows his stuff ! I love listening to him . We are very fortunate to have his classes on you tube .
The Sutras and the Vedas are the Ultimate treasures of wisdom, thanks to the Hindu (Sanatana Dharma) seers and sages. We need Sanatana Dharma to be realised in the world today more than ever to bring peace and love for all life . Om tat sat
I love this guy. I have done inner engineering with Sadhguru. But still I have so many questions which he answered.
I find Sadhguru’s talks very superficial compared to swamiji ‘s. We get pure Advaitha knowledge here. Real gen is listening to self enquiry method of Ramana Maharshi, which is very practical
Sadhguru is no good. be careful!
Sadhuguru knows a few aspects of raja yoga and that's all. He never emphasises the necessity of Yama and niyamas even. He just speaks English fluently and manages to deceive people. He also has no knowledge of the indepth knowledge of the upanishads the basis of every vedantic Darshana, (the thing we call hinduism is nothing but vedanta. The yoga darshan however is older than vedantic schools mostly as it takes from sankhya more than vedanta) just superficiality at best. My suspicions in his authenticity rose when he started talking about swami vivekananda's life while having no knowledge of it except superficiality. That's the same reason I dislike western philosophers, too superficial. Buddhist schools of thought like in Nagarjuna's Madhayamaka philosophy, Dharmakirti's Yogacara-Sautrantika philosophy and other schools are much more profound than these. But the most profound philosophy is Gaudapada's Ajativada and Swami vivekananda's interpretation of Maya. These two coupled with advaita vedanta makes advaita the most profound philosophy in the whole world. Sadhguru clearly dodges questions on advaita vedanta and that shows his utter ignorance. It will do you great good to stay away from such conmen.
These talks are illuminating. They have opened to gates of my Panchakosha. How I like this talk on Maya. Especially the end when he invokes the shlokas from Shwetashvatara Upanishad and the prayer to let this awakening come to all of us in this life itself. Fortunate are those who have listened to him.
Swami Vivekananda,a living Vedanta !!!
Hearing Swamiji for 10mins.. He will make you busy for the next 6 months by referring to all these external philosophers and their books... I wanna read all!
True..
Mandukya Upanishad is enough
Yes
@@AmitSharma1703 are you in the path of self realisation?

Beautiful talk and thanks for introducing the book by Prof. Grimes. At 33:46 the crowd laughs when swamiji says the parents came to fight. These parents have to exercise the same bravado when their kids do it to them. This is a great path... The Hindu world needs more swamijis and swaminis to go to the interiors of India. My pranams to swamiji.
Swamigy, every talk of yours, Vedanta, is taking so many people to enlightenment..
So am I..
No words to express my gratitude. Thank God, Shri Ramakrishna, Swami Vivekananda and Swamiji.
This never goes old Thank you Swami J
Yesterday only I was struggling with this query in my mind & today i found Swamiji's video addressing my query.I feel blessed by hearing him.Pranam..🙏
What an incredible memory to recite so many stories and quote passages from books and scriptures without hesitation! Wowed by your gift to seamlessly share your tremendous spiritual knowledge that is so enticing. 🙏🏼 Thank you 😊
Swamiji you are the best teacher in this so called modern times. There seems no question which you do not have answer to. You are an epitome of wisdom and knowledge. It's blessing of the Lord that I get to view your talks. Koti koti pranaam Swamiji.
now we understand how Swami Vivekananda hsd delivered his speeches. You are a true Guru
Sarvapriynandas appearance before us is enough for people like us to be in peace.His words are inspiring.God bless
Swamiji is unsurpassed. We are so blessed to have this from him.
Exactly I saw him in NY 2 weeks ago. I consider myself so fortunate!

Sadananda UTube -সদানন্দ ইউটিউব love and blessings to you from USA
My humble greeting to all. I thank the creator of this video for bringing us divine knowledge and thus enlightening our minds. Finding fellow seekers is a rare thing and I will like to use this space to share with you all something about my own Guru, Swami Shri Ajay Gurudev.
Guruji, started his inner journey at an early age. He did not have a Daihik (one with a physical body) guru, but was initiated on the path to self-realization by Mahavir Swami. Guruji underwent many trials and tribulations, but at the age of 13 he emerged victorious, self-realized! Guruji has been a beacon of light for many, including myself. I have first-hand witnessed many of his leelas and what some might call, Miracles. Due to his grace, I am working in the USA and also treading the path of yoga swiftly. Guruji does not believe in fame or building ashrams, despite living in the heart of New Delhi he has stayed fairly anonymous and meets only a handful of people who are sincere and want to tread the spiritual path. Guruji, a while back took on the initiative of sharing his knowledge through building a website thetreasuredivine.com/home/. The objective of this website is to guide seekers treading the spiritual path and also to bring the positive vibrations of a True saint to one and all. I hope this humble initiative will be helpful in your spiritual journey and may the divine principle enlighten your lives.
Swami sarvapriyananda ji is ❤️

SHIR SASTANG NAMASKAR TO
SWAMIJI.
JAY RAMAKRISHNA.
the way out of maya is also through maya(understanding/realization)🙏
Using a thorn to remove a thorn!
The sheer amount of books,philosophers he is quoting making me dizzy thinking how vast his knowledge is across multiple specialities and what talent to find a common link among all of them!Wow..Pranam!
What a wonderful presence and wisdom . As clear as the sky.
What a beautiful finish to a splendid talk! Shrinvantu vishwe amritasya putra! Restores courage into my heart...
What a profound lecture on a difficult concept of Maya! He presented opposing views with grace! Respect!
sairam swami sarvapriyananda ji ..thanks for starting the project of teaching vedanta as per swami vivekananda. used to find him very difficult to understand but your introduction is opening him to us all. i am begining to now understand Jnana Yoga by vivekananda this time. please continue discussing his talks given at various times on Jnana yoga. many thanks and gratitute. asha.
I am an Ex-Muslim. I love this swami. I use to watch his lectures on daily basis for the last few months. This lecture is an other masterpiece. However, I don't agree with Swami's point if regarding agnostic people (around 1:11:00). I myself is now agnostic. But I do believe in spirituality. In my opinion thinkers have found may truths but nothing is final and absolute. There are probibilities and possibilities but nothing is last word. Every philosophy and every religion has some excellent things, some good things and even some bad things. To me Hindu and Buddhist philosophies are far far better than Islam.
Why mention your religion? :) We all are one.
It is great that being an agnostic also you are listening to the spiritual talks. I am sure if you keep on listening to the Swamy your veil of ignorance will go off. You will start realising yourself as a part of the humanity as a whole. There is nothing agnostic or nothing spiritual, knowledge of owns self that matters. Thanks.
dawah2 love and blessings!
That's nothing better or worse, the light is to consciousness.
Yes sir welcome to sanatan dharma
This is exactly what Quantum Physics says, never heard a better explanation on superposition... blessed to hear this lecture
Can you tell at which point of the video... there is a reference to Quantum Physics

Wow ! What's a precise answer ! In fact @ mithun das comment lead me to prioritize my listening to this discourse .
Quantum Physics doesn't say this.Don't fool yourself.
Pranams Gurudev your clarity depth and exposition of Adwaitha Vedanta are simply exlemparary An Amsha of Takhur maharaja has reincarnated as Swami Sarapriyananda I am simply amazed at the knowledge of your students too Jai Sri Ramakrishna Maharaj ke
One of the best talks that I have given, and you have given, and yet no one has given! Just a philosophical thought. Om namah Shivaya. Jai Swamiji
I love this spiritual leaders commentary. I haven't watched this yet but his discussion on the Buddha vs Hinduism was a great discussion. A bit hard for a Rookie like me to understand but very fascinating. I was once a Christian and then renounced Christianity and came to love Judaism and the Kabbalah and I still love Kabbalah teachings. I find the Old Testament now too violent to read and I believe in the truths of the Vedas and Buddha . I don't know fully and who ever does but the ideas in Hinduism and Buddhism ring so true to me. So much to learn. Thank you for these great teachings!
Who knows may be past life...
Swamiji, your lectures and explanations to the otherwise most difficult subjects is inspiring and exciting! I never miss a single video of yours. Thanks you.
So blessed to hear your talks. Just can’t comprehend how well read you are and use such practical examples to present the most complicated principles. Humble Pranaams.
You're really on fire here Swami... Thank you for all of your efforts
At the end of it all, SwamiJi prays to Sri Ramakrishna and the Divine Mother Sri Sarada; such a humility. A thorough Vedanta Srotrian and an unparalleled Orator. He is Divine Mothers Prasad to the world of Seekers. May She bestow him with health and longevity🙏
No doubts Swamiji is one of the greatest philosopher of our times We all are blessed to have this wonderful man living with us Thank You !
I dont know, i cried by listening to it, i dont know why, it directly touched my heart like a symphony
God bless you brother.
Crying is the realization of maya striking hard to the path of purity. I often encounter it through his speeches.

If we are honest we all know that we never see a world but are always only looking at our own mind. Somehow we tend to forget and ignore this fact. But when we honestly look without assuming anything it will be seen for what it really is: Maya. 😘
Oh my god ! This is amazing .
We think that this person may be judging us , he may be abusing us , they hates us , they loves us . The world is nothing but a mind
Swamiji at his highest level
So true!
He has been christened very accurately. He is Swami Sarvapriyananda ji Maharaj. He is no doubt ‘Sarva’ ‘Priya’ and a source of ‘Ananda’.
No words to express my appreciation and happiness
That's why silence' is the best way to express the ultimate......🙏
Even after listening this lecture again and again for two hours, one is Joyce and tension free. Think how godly u become after attaining it with practice.. thank u swamijee

Tqvm revered maharaj 🙏
Absolutely mesmerizing 🙏 what an impeccable explanation!
Beautiful Synopsis by Swami Sarvapriyananda; a walking talking encyclopedia of knowledge in Adawita Vedanta and most contemporary Western religious philosophies. The more fruits you add to your smoothie, the better it tastes. As Vivekananda said, A frog croaking loud and hard from his own will never admit that anything can be bigger than the confines of his own well. In that respect, we should welcome the intermingling of diverse philosophies and belief systems.
A good example of Maya is like watching a movie in the theatre. We are so immersed in the characters that we laugh and cry with them for the entire duration of the film but as soon as the lights are turned back on, we see the blank white screen. Neither the movie characters were real, nor the screen but only the seer is real. This is what Aashtavakra said to Janaka 'Neither that was real, nor this is real, Only you are real'.
Every time I hear him, I want to hear him more.
Swamij is a pure heart and blessed with a gift of Wisdom. His exposition of our existence albeit through Maya's veil, to desperate seekers he clears enough mud from the water for a quenching drink of Truth. 🙏 OM Shanti Shivoham 💙
THE TRUTH ABOUT "SWAMI" VIVEKANANDA & THE RAMAKRISHNA MISSION:
Some of the following three points apply to practically any "religious" organization, not only to the Ramakrishna Mission/Vedanta Society.
Nota bene: I refer to the founder of that pseudo-religious organization by his proper name, Mr. Narendranath Datta, and NOT the name by which he is addressed by the deluded fanatics who follow him, "Swami Vivekananda", for reasons that should become obvious when reading the following.
1. A spiritual master ought to be a member of the Holy Priesthood (that is, the "brāhmaṇa" class of society, usually wrongly transliterated as "Brahmin"). Mr. Datta was a member of the working-class ("śūdra", in Sanskrit), since he failed to exhibit key characteristics of a genuine brāhmaṇa.
Firstly, he was a drug addict (he died at a young age, due to lung cancer caused by chain smoking tobacco). 🚬
Secondly, he was a carnist. A carnist is a person who considers animals unworthy of moral protection (he virtually suckled on the teats of cows, thus causing undue harm to both himself, to the cows from whom he stole their milk, and of course the poor, innocent calves, who were robbed of their food). 🍼 🐄 🥛
In order to learn of the prerequisites for being a TRUE BRĀHMAṆA, email me for a copy of the Holiest of All Holy Scriptures, "A Final Instruction Sheet for Humanity" ("FISH").
2. The Ramakrishna Mission/Vedanta Society condones the two MOST PERNICIOUS institutions in the history of the planet - democracy and feminism. There is insufficient space in this comment section to properly explicate the reasons why democracy (or, for that matter, any system of non-monarchical governance) and feminism are so adharmic and evil, so, if you are one of the very few souls who is desirous of understanding my reason for stating the above, you should find my Email address in the "About" page of my UA-cam channel.
3. Because, as mentioned previously, Mr. Datta was an ultra-fundamentalist pseudo-religious fanatic, and an ignorant "śūdra", none of his disciples and grand-disciples, et cetera, can ever attain to self-realization, for as Lord Jesus Christ rightly stated two millennia ago, "A student can never be greater than his teacher".
Therefore, if one has ambition to become even more "realized" than Mr. Datta, it is ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE that he seek training from a guru who is on a higher state of spiritual understanding and realization than Mr. Datta, or any of the current Ramakrishna Mission "sannyasins".
Just to provide a couple of examples for the above accusation, the current head of the Advaita Society of New York, Mr. Vishvarupa (so-called "Swami" Sarvapriyānanda) is a self-confessed candāla (dog-eater), since he consumes the bloody carcasses of poor, innocent animals, and of course, as a member of that demonic organization, he promulgates the second-most pernicious institution in history (feminism). Furthermore, the British woman who hosts his UA-cam channel, Diane Crafford, according to her Facebook profile picture, condones not only unjustified animal slaughter, but she supports the murder of even poor, innocent, defenseless, unborn humans. 👿
In order to study dharma and yoga with the current World Teacher Himself, search for "Jagadguru Svami Vegananda" in Facebook.
