    Thank you so much for this highly educational series. As a westerner trying to study the Vedas for many years by myself in Alaska, these conversations are providing clarity on many issues. Now, if I could only be more disciplined in my Sanskrit studies.

    There is also another major distinction. Shastra were revealed to Brahma ji who lives in topmost living system possible in this universe. It is meant for all embodied beings everywhere in this universe to obtain any of 4 purusartha (Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha) and not just this universe millions of other universes as well. While most of these Abhrahamic scriptures are meant for people on earth (which is pretty insignificant in context of this entire universe what to talk about other universes) that too from some point in time; Vedic shastra applies to everyone everywhere in this lila vibhuti (creation manifested by Brahman by employing his prakriti).

    So true. History doesn't always require so called writing. Lots of our temples don't have writing but if we can study them even with our limited senses we can learn a lot. Another example is coming to my mind is the Great Pyramid if Giza. There is not a single writing found in Giza complex.

    Sastra means instructions ,directions, commands (that which is doing saasana)so that people practice DHARMA, (in the absence of saastra people act as per Vaasana)which is SREYAS for all including animate and inanimate. Also,saastrapramanam is overriding on all pramanams.Thasmal saastram pramaanam theey...Gitaji. Sastreeya sangeeth is as per Saamaveda saasthra. (Carnatic and Hindustani)

    To fit Indian chronology into 1500 bce (by xtian Issac Newton) distorted chronology was imposed by xtian historians.

    To me Shastra contains laws of the universe. As these laws are eternal, Shastra is also eternal. For example, theory of relativity always existed as natural laws but Einstein discovered the law. All our Scriptures are discovery of eternal laws of the universe.

    • @sarlasaraf2385
      @sarlasaraf2385 3 роки тому

      If u feel drawn to buddhism follow it, philosophies majorly match but one thing that is big difference is : hinduism gives each devotee to see Ishwara in form or formless way depending upon how they pray, connect, rever Ishwara. So if devotee pray ishwara as Shiva there is huge chance for devotee to merge in Shiva only , if devotee believes in concept of formless ishwara, devotee will merge is that only. Buddism on other hand believes there is no form or formless but a shunya...there shunya can be compared to FORMLESS TO SOME extent. Please watch Om Swami Ji 's video on same.

    At 5:38 Swamiji says if any text not compliant with Vedas it is not shastra. I fully agree with this position. But wondering why Swamiji said Hanuman is avatara of Shiva (in Hanuman video)? In spite of Vedic testimony that Hanuman is Mukhya PraNa tatva, he went on holding un-shastric position. Swamiji -- please correct your understanding.

    Ved is Vidhaya (Knowledge) about Brahm from BrahmaRishi's Sages to Shishya's in Oral Tradition of Guru and Shishya Parampara. Thus called Shruti.
    Dharma Shastra is Written form to Study of Dharma for Modern Times, KaliYug.
    Dharma is Science of Nature. Natural Science. Natural Science is divided into two parts : Space and Earth. Space (Infinite) and Earth(Finite). Similar to Energy and Mass. Spiritual and Material. ParaNormal and Normal. Soul and Body.

    2) concept of vaikuntha ...how is it different from concept of heaven n hell in abhramic religions, currently most hindus believe in moksha but not much on vaikuntha... kindly explain.
    3) Is Garuda Puran real? It is not followed in every hindu household of india ..and also ut is very terrifying to hear..very similar to concept of hell in abhrahmic religion. Kindly explain.

    Well, this video talks about Shastra and there is no mention of ApourusheyattvaM (unauthoredness) concept? Quite lapsing in fidelity of this video. The very validity (pramANyattvaM) of Veda Shastra is rooted on the fact that they are being apourusheya. The defense and establishment of Vedic validity on the first principle is quite explored in work of Sri. Madhva Acharya "Vishnu Tatva Vinirnaya". Please make an attempt to study VTVN and its commentaries and bring forth possible another video session.

    We don't necessarily have to reject others to Ex-ist. Negation is not Rejection. Sword is good & useful, but it's only a tool. You don't become sword! Veda is Vidya - verb than noun. It means practise driven experience driven etc. It does not mean what's "mentioned", but, practicality. Niruddha is crux in Negation, rejection is only tool used to Negate! India's identity is not "Other Rejection" or a mere comparative difference. India is flow from sufficiency!!! Not a deficient, suppliment driven identity.

    261.1
    Matter of MATHAM
    MA & TA are the sounds which make the word MATHAM. Together does it represent the perception of MA, the self about TA, something in its environment ? MATHAM is MA's (self's) opinion about TA, the other ! A "TA" visible for everyone on earth is Sun ( Moon is also significantly visible from earth but stars are not ). Opinion about sun and moon divided people. MAs of the same opinion on TA came together and grouped as MATHAM.
    Generalisations were made on limited personal observations and SAASTRA was formed. Categorisation ( making TARA of ) of those beneficial to self (SA)and not beneficial (ASA) is SAASTRA, science.
    MA is the exterior ( the interactive pattern / now it has gone still outer to the type or colour of the dress) of the self.. Based on the attire we are invoked to group, to love, to hate and to fight. MAs of the same appearance gather together and form a common boundary around the aggregate. The common interactive pattern is further galvanized by a creed and rituals. The united body MATHAM of similar MAs is stronger to defend from the common enemy. The common enemy ( infidel / kaafir ) is anyone (even own child) who has a different opinion about TA ( a different SAASTRA).
    EL, the rising sun, the most visible TA from earth became the point of discussion. The daily and annual movements of the EL formed a SAASTRA. AL, the crescent moon also gathered observers, and a different SAASTRA developed around the lunar movements. EL & AL became guides ( Gods). The rising nature of EL (rising sun) and AL (the crescent moon) made human beings with MAAYA traits to worship them in the hope of getting back the ever increasing wealth and prosperity. EL is considered God by some & AL is considered God (the guide of direction and time,Creator,Almighty.) by some other. Ideas about TA united believers and disconnected them from infidels. Superstitions ruled followers. People were ready to kill and be killed for the perpetuation of their own truth (ideas about TA / SAASTRA/superstitions). MATHAM (conception) of the victor is imposed on the vanquished if it is not voluntarily accepted. Matham, the religion of the Victor rules the region where they reign. IsraEL and the followers of ALlah continue their fight though the idea about "TA" ( moon and sun) advanced much beyond the religious convictions.
    Opinions of MA about TA ( MATHAM) separated mankind. EL (sun, Surya, Ravi) followers considered their God as the best guide, the unique One, the Almighty. AL (moon, Chandra) followers gave the almighty status to their own conception. Re-legion means a legion (war group) formed again. A war group for protecting the grand boundary MA of MATHA based on MITHYA (myths(myth was a truth of yesterday maybe of today, not the truth of tomorrow). War for protecting the rituals which sustains MATHA (War for protecting the modus operandi of propitiating the supernatural guide) is "sanctioned" by God !
    SAASTRA means classification into SA & ASA (useful to self and not useful to self). Personal benefit is the purpose of SAASTRA and personal observation is the method. Observations and findings of other learned are accepted without doubting or questioning. Time and direction were created based on solar and lunar movements. Personal opinions about favorable times, directions, positions became SAASTRA not refuted by anybody. Thus Astrology, Vaastu etc. became SAASTRA in the opinion of gullible public.
    When MA observes and formulates ideas about TA without any personal interests the unbiased formulation about TA would yield repeatable(R) results (truth). The object of observation is called MATTER.
    MATTER of MATHAM is that MATHAM is biased and is unreliable to get the repetitiveness of truth. Bias causes gross errors. MA is biased. MA's observation of TA is biased.
    Note: This is just an attempt to learn the meaning of widely used names and words. Not a propaganda of any ideology.

    These so presumed scholars are very confused about the Vedic language (chandas) and the AD era codified Sanskrit language!

Sanskrit language is the Pali language and Tamilized version!

    • @vish2553
      @vish2553 3 роки тому +2

      Wrong. Shruti is saptha only, later it was written in language format and Devanagiri script as well as in many scripts including Brahmi well before that and in Granthams. Pallavas inscriptions are in Tamil Grantham. Tamil follows Panini’s grammar like all Indian languages.
