Thank you swamiji. I listen to your lectures regularly and I am learning a lot. I am sure that these UA-cams are of immense help to many seekers. I stay in a remote village in tamil nadu. I can't express my gratitude and indebtedness enough to you swamiji for these lectures and thus giving me a chance to know Vedanta, a little atleast in this life. Thank you and thank you.
Alas! Drg Drsya Viveka is coming to an end! I hope Swamiji will take up another book on Vedanta. I hope the Head quarters of the Sri Ramakrishna Mission will reduce other responsibilities of Swami Sarvapriyanandaji so that he can teach us people more about Vedanta and the Upanishads.
Sairam Swami Sarvapriyananda Ji. After watching almost allyour videos many times the understanding has finally settled.The projecting of Name and Form and the Veiling power of Maya, its need and use is clear in mind. It is no longer a deceptive power but a useful power through which we are made aware of Bahaman which indeed is beyond our five senses. The mirage is understood. The understanding has set in how and why I am Brahman. This body is also a projection of Name and Form by Maya on Brahman and the Veil thrown on it isunderstood too. I can finally with understanding and belief say the Truth to myself I AM Brahmasmi. I AM THAT I AM. With practice I am fully sure I will see the same in all.See all as the waves in the ocean of Existence ,Consciousness ,Bliss Absolute I AM. Swami Ji I will ever ever ever be thankful to you for giving this precious understanding knowledge. With Infinite Love and Gratitude from the Inner Silence. saiasha.
You are almost there. When you have a direct understanding of the concept( aparoksha anubhoothi) you will realise yorself that you are absolutely free. Free from all sentiments ( you have started with sairam-probably a sai devotee)nothing to be achieved, nothing to be sought after, nothing to be known further. You will accept everything as it happens with equanimity. This state would tell you that you made it. Best wishes
Swamiji you have shown me the path to enlightenment. I do not see myself getting enlightened in this birth. But I hope this life to turn out to be a stepping stone to my future births progressing towards enlightenment.
May you always be imbued with wisdom and compassion in order to show us the path so clearly. Thank you immensely I dedicate you my merits (if I have any).
In Total Gratitude for this very enlightening knowledge ! We are Truly Blessed and Grateful to have this wonderful opportunity to have this amazing opportunity of the knowledge Simplified ! Thank you ! Thank you! Thank you!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹
Sairam. "MyParasar". Thanks for your very encouraging response. I know baby steps finally do and will lead to a stable walk to the goal of life. Teachings of Vedanta were the perfect gift from SaiBaba Himself to me at this time through Swami Sarvapriyananda Ji . Something Baba has taught for long time needed this understanding and clearance of how and why of Aham Bramasmi , I am God , to my mind. I have been in HIS fold for last few decades. May we all reach that ultimate goal of life. Saiasha. With Infinite Love and Gratitude.
Thank you so much for uploading these series. I have been following through. I listen to them every morning and such wisdom imparted. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to hear these words being in Malaysia
Namaste Swamiji, all your lectures have been so clearly explained... would really like to thank you so much for making these videos available to all of us. Keep up the good work. Thank you very much..
Pranam Swamiji. Such thrilling clarity and insight. I do not think you can make Vedanta more clear. Your explanations are the work of a genius. Do hope you will take up another serious text, else we will simply have to keep re-learning these discourses, .... till our hungering hearts get more teaching of another pure Vedanta text!
Really fascinating !!! "Who sees ?" so true . At least logically . The witness consciousness is not another human body with eyes , mind, sense organs..so it is beyond mind . Our all questions are also limited to how our minds function , our perception is also limited to how we perceive this world through 5 senses . Now if there is something beyond these mind and perception , but which operates through these instruments . Once someone is establish in that reality how that person perceives/work/use his mind is beyond reach of our understanding... If you say 'witness consciousness' thinks , then that is not true because it is the 'reflected consciousness' which thinks . If you say 'witness consciousness' does not think , i will say how you know . May be we can logically think that 'witness consciousness' may not necessarily think using mind,as we do but may be it does that work by some other means - We don't know . Any other ideas on how ''witness consciousness' can remains in itself and experience this world without human body and sense organs ? Or once someone is realized he does not reborn again (karma theory) - but does that still remain active in some other way without body as pure 'witness consciousness' ?
Pranab Mukherjee Let us take body mind complex as a veil or cloth. A jnani has the ability to take off cloth and remain in witness consciousness or he can put on clothes and claim himself to be the reflected consciousness. But we cannot take off the clothe like them. Clothe has become our identity
Who see’s? There is no one there to see. The person, the false self. The reflected consciousness that we mistakenly believe we are is seen for what it is. It’s there, but it’s known for what it is. Ultimately it’s not real and so not there. You experience the mind, body, and world through all of the same modes of knowing as before. The mind is there, the body is there the world is there and I am is there in all of it too. I have my own ideas about karma, and past lives that would not be consistent with the Vedanta or other teachings. So I won’t try to answer that question so I don’t cause confusion.
Pranam Swamiji. Q1) As dreams are based on reflections of our mind, can they also be based on reflections of the previous births? Q2) Will a person who gets enlightened also get rid of dreams, since he always remains in the Sakshi bhava, while awake or in sleep? Thanks in anticipation of your reply.
Dreams are nothing more than thoughts while your body is sleeping. Thoughts are nothing more than dreams while your body is awake. You will still dream. You will be there in waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Aware of it all.
দেশিক শাক্তবেদান্তী আর কাশ্মিরী শৈবাগমের প্রাচীন গুরু সম্প্রদায়ের ভেতর এক মন্ত্রের সন্ধান পেয়েছিলাম। তার অর্থ স্পষ্ট হয়নি। আপনার বেদান্তের ক্লাস করার পর সেখানা পড়ে মনে হয়েছে 'বেদান্তসার' এর জগৎ বা সৃষ্টি ধারণার সঙ্গে তা একমত। কমেন্টে বেশি লিখতে দিচ্ছে না বা লেখা যাচ্ছে না। প্রণাম 🙏
Omkar Manav The way I understood, two are just reflections of real self. When you get enlightenment you will know clearly only one "I" the witness is true and other two are false appearance. Only bramhan exists.
Brahman is 1 , that 1 having no 2 ( according to " Sri Ramkrishna Kathamrita). Then these innumerable things of the World--- are the projection of Maya. Isn't it ? Pranam maharaj.
Why dont we say the mind experiences. The deep sleep experience is not very convincing. Since you give all worldly examples, in the same way I could argue that the mind shut off and when it wakes up it feels relaxed and charged up.
My mananam effort - It is because I am sakshi chaitanyam , that Advaita is validated. If I am the chidabhasa of waking, it will be duality; If I am the chidabhasa of dream, it will be subjective idealism (?). What is dream? Dream is that state when the chidabhasa acts as a dreamer and the antakaranah acts as dream world. Brahman is brahman irrespective of whatever state you are in; it is for you that it changed from jagat to brahman - upon your realizing that you are sakshi chaitanyam, not chidabhasa. Please correct me at the errors.
Is it right to say that we are trapped in names and forms because all objects(including body,mind) have boundaries ,shapes and sizes that is to say they have limits -for e.g table,chair tree people etc .And we or our mind grasps the things which have limits.and so we get engaged in limited objective world rather than the limitless, shapeless, boundary less brahman.

41:40 how do we prove ignorance? Don't try to prove ignorance, try to overcome ignorance! By which light can you see darkness?
Beautiful and best discourse on Self.Thanks Swamiji.

I ask because I don't know
Then you're in ignorance

Obrigado!
58:50 the enlightened person is overcome with MahaKaruna (Great Compassion)
Is the reflected consciousness in the mind of the Jiva where vrities arise, making the reflected consciousness the foundation of the mind ?

How can I attain such a class from Swami ji in India?? Now, I'm unable to afford for USA.
Fine

When an enlightened person leaves the body, what happens to his sukshma sharir?
53:22 well known Sadhu asked about what's it like to be enlightened
If there three I's real, empirical and apparent how to unite them with the real I ?
Omkar Manav The way I understood, two are just reflections of real self. When you get enlightenment you will know clearly only one "I" the witness is true and other two are false appearance. Only bramhan exists.
Empirical and Apparent I's are just projections of Maya..Witness I is the real I which is one with Bramhan.
Brahman is 1 , that 1 having no 2 ( according to " Sri Ramkrishna Kathamrita). Then these innumerable things of the World--- are the projection of Maya. Isn't it ?
Pranam maharaj.
41:01 "transactional" world means false world
Best
Without a reflector you cannot have a reflection. Consciousness reflects its own misinterprations of itself on itself.
41:53 so hilarious
Actually there is possible to continue dreams from where you left them a night ago. Many people can do this.
If you carefully listen the verse doesn’t negate this possibility.
How the Brahman has came in Maya ?
Why dont we say the mind experiences. The deep sleep experience is not very convincing. Since you give all worldly examples, in the same way I could argue that the mind shut off and when it wakes up it feels relaxed and charged up.
My mananam effort -
It is because I am sakshi chaitanyam , that Advaita is validated. If I am the chidabhasa of waking, it will be duality; If I am the chidabhasa of dream, it will be subjective idealism (?).
What is dream? Dream is that state when the chidabhasa acts as a dreamer and the antakaranah acts as dream world.
Brahman is brahman irrespective of whatever state you are in; it is for you that it changed from jagat to brahman - upon your realizing that you are sakshi chaitanyam, not chidabhasa.
Please correct me at the errors.
42:48 the poor dream individual.... VERSE!
what about a blind person what he will see
Is it right to say that we are trapped in names and forms because all objects(including body,mind) have boundaries ,shapes and sizes that is to say they have limits -for e.g table,chair tree people etc .And we or our mind grasps the things which have limits.and so we get engaged in limited objective world rather than the limitless, shapeless, boundary less brahman.
Nirmal Anand!!
