    Can we take a minute to acknowledge how extremely blessed we are, to have a smartphone which has just passed on to us the most ancient ancient and highest truth of the universe, which stands strong even in the times of modern physics, and we have one of the best Swami's to teach this to us at the comfort of our homes, where once upon a time, we had to travel far and wide in order to seek this knowledge over years and years.
    I'm in tears at how easy it is for our generation, and how I wish more people realised this!

    This shloka is such a tradition in Bengal, that all private, public TV and radio stations play this exact recording in unison on Mahalaya morning. No matter what language or format your radio or tv station is, regular programming is set aside to kickstart DeviPaksh. TV channels play their dramatised version, but radio stations play this old tape recorder quality version. All the hip cool radio stations do it. Everyone of them.

    Great lecture as usual by "Swami Sarvapriyananda". Blessed!!....4000 years ago "vakyas" like "Tat Twam Asi" and "Aham Bramhasmi" made absolute sense because GOD dwelled in people in those times - at least in Rishis. In fact GOD himself spoke through them and says "Aham".
    In today's world people will build egos when you "You are that". It is impossible for people in today;s age to switch to mindset like that. Not anybody's fault but the power of Maya is very strong.
    The best way today, towards realization, as Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa said, is to consider yourself a servant of GOD and focus on extreme devotion.

    I am 62 years. For all those years of festivities, bhajans, enjoyment etc, today I got a meaning of 'OUR MOTHER".
    The references to 3 pillars of Sri Ramakrishna mission, the example of the Statue of Liberty, the list of War Soldiers, the historical events and the upanishads makes one convinced of what Devine Mother is. I had tears of joy to get this knowledge. I feel blessed on this Navaratri festival.
    When swamiji said his physical mother used listen that bengali hymn, I knew he was waiting for the right time to explain all about it to the world.
    All those who have watched will take it with different perspective. But you can get the truth only with Mothers grace. 🙏🙏🙏💗💗💗💗

      I too loved it. This swami has a deep understanding of Sanatana dharma, and a deep and abiding love for Ramakrishnaji, Swami Vivekandaji, and Maa Saradaji. Above all in this lecture, he dispels notions of gender in the divine and if at all, she has a gender, it is the divine mother. In her womb, we enact so many plays, and that play which recognizes Her as our own selves is the play worth playing and becoming. As Kuldeep sir says here, Swamiji is so erudite and is able to tie together several western and eastern concepts of philosophy with ease. I was moved to write this. Your tender heart made you cry.
      You're so right, Kuldeep sir. f you look at the comments here, everyone loved Swamiji's lecture but understood it from their own framework. "But one can only arrive at the "satyam" of Her magnificence, the one "Truth" only through her grace." How beautifully stated? 🙂🙏🙏🙏

    It is quite strange and really hard to believe but the "most valuable" takeaway for me from this Sadhu has been "the love for the Mother". Who knows whether it is one reality or two, whether it is dual or non-dual..these things have not been reported, it can not be reported. But with the Mother on my side I can pulverize the galaxies and rake the universe... there is no doubt about that. Mother is coming soon.....Jai Mata Di!!

    @Rubylove48 3 роки тому +16

    It’s good that swami is attempting to rectify the erasure and disinformation re the feminine aspect of Vedanta. True non duality requires the embodiment of the ultimate reality not just seeing the ultimate reality, Some of the most famous non dualists are actually the most ardent dualists because of the minimisation of the embodiment and form aspects only focusing on the consciousness aspects. Sri ramakrishna understood the feminine and the importance of living the energetic frequencies of Divine realisation. understanding the marriage of consciousness and matter is the ultimate realisation of spiritual potential within the human experience. Sri aurobindo expounds on this to the evolution of Human consciousness through the Divine Life.

      Listen to ISKCON only if u r interested in Krishna bhakti alone. Because they are only concerned about devotion to lord Krishna and NOTHING ELSE. So they interpret all the scriptures in such a manner,, be it Vedanta,, or Devi puran.
      RKM teaches Advaita Vedanta,, as per taught by swami vivekananda.
      The two philosophies will appear contradictory, because they are!!
      That of RKM, and ISKCON.
      Infact,, ISKCON openly criticizes RKM and it's philosophy.
      So adopt what's for YOU,, and follow it to the very end. Without quitting. That's the real deal.
      Be it, Krishna bhakti,, or Devi Bhakti,, or Advaita Vedanta. It's important to be committed to it. And not deviate to any other path in between. That would hinder growth.

    Pranams to Swamy Ji. My usual gripe with Swamy Ji and with RK mission in general. Revelations in Christianity and Islam are NOT same as revelations in Vedas. This is a biggest disservice one can do to Sanatana Dharm by equating all as same. All in the name of being politically correct. Religion itself is alien to our dharma. The whitewashing of infantile concepts and dogmas of Abrahamic religions here is called being politically correct. I am sorry to say this Ji.
    Let’s us just deal only with our scriptures instead of trying to encompass totally incompatible religions of middle east into the discussion.

      Lets not forget, Sri Ramakrishna himself had the taste of Abrahamic religions by temporarily converting into them, which must have given him greater insight into Sanatana Dharma. IMHO, all religious tenets emerged from the God Almighty himself and were earmarked for each region in accordance with the climatic conditions, culture and habits. No religion is superior or inferior.
