@@HinduAcademy Learn tamil to unmask truth. There was no hinduism before 150ad. They plagiarized tamil literature and call themself old. Its all now exposed now. All vedas are 100% pure tamil literature.

In 1971, I saw that "I" and everything else are the same thing. Or I could just as easily say there never was an "I" to begin with.
But (haha), no one seeks my autograph.

Welcome to the original sanathana dharma
Problem with hindus today is that they want to glorify their religion but they hardly practice it. Mughals and britishes manipulated and destroyed sanatan scriptures. I want to read Vedas and personally experience its knowledge. Till now i read bhagwat geeta and my experience is good.
Try to now write about each chapter of Gita. Soon you will learn you do not understand half of it. Then you wil buy commentaries. And different people have given different. Read them. Now read the whole mahabharat. And suddenly all of the stories now make completely different meaning and you understand the practical meaning of it. Read and understand Gita. Now read Ramayana and Mahabharata. This will give you enough of Hindu philosophy for your life.
you can start with "Satyarth Prakash" by swami Dayanand Saraswati. He was one of the greatest rishis of all time.
"Mughals and britishes manipulated and destroyed sanatan scriptures", nope British did not! In fact, this is one area where we should really thank the British, British scholars like William Jones and many other Indologists are responsible for the re-discovering of the Vedas, before them Vedas were only studied and taught by the Brahmins, others were not allowed, and as "others" constitute most of Hindu population, we almost lost interest in those scriptures, they were lost! British found out those treasures and got super interested, they and German scholars loved those scriptures and made them popular in the west. Even today, more westerners study Patanjali's yogasutras than Hindus do!

@@truthwillprevail1816 - though he's speaking of Hinduism as a religion, it is properly called Sanatana Dharma, or roughly translated as duty. It's not just a religion in the temples, it is an entire philosophical system and easy if life. One is invited to adopt what is useful to them into their spiritualb practice, but studying the whole system is a highly daunting task. I've been reading their sources for years, some tens of thousands of pages worth, and have barely scratched the surface.
My thirst has been quenched. Read the Upanishads
Andy I’m from East Tennessee I’m learning about Hinduism I’ve been mostly Christian all my life Hindi philosophy has a strong gravity to it
Hinduism is one of the greatest Religion in the world.
Om Shanti. 🙏🙏🙏
Hinduism is not religion .
Its a dharma , hindu dharma or vedic dharma
Hinduism is not a religion... It's Sanatan Dharma...The Duty of Nature, The DUTY OF HUMANS!

Hey Brother, many Hindus in India can explain these things peacefully. But they are not listened to by the Brainwashed Western-Educated people who call themselves liberal.
Apology for using politically incorrect statements, but that is exactly the case.
This is not preaching ,it’s called teaching
Well India doesn't need him but other countries do because we are well aware about our religion and we have so many people over here to explain such things... Don't take it otherwise.... Jai shree ram 🙏 jai bhavani.
Internet has just started the awakening of Hindu's and Hinduism.
Most of people dont hv idea abt Hinduism like myself.
I ll be reading everything now...from gita to upanishad, vedas.
Good also try to read old Tamil texts tirukural tirumandram

I was from so called Hindu Family but the practices in my home and community was so distorted from the original that I saw no benefit those practices are bringing to peoples lives. As a result, I was like an atheist. Now with the rise of Internet I can clearly see what Hinduism can offer. I am practicing everything authentically and getting mountain shifting results. Thanx for the rise of CZcams and Social Medias.
Me too... Any idea where to buy those books from. And the cost
Read Gita 1st, then Srimad Bhagavatam.
I am a western agnostic. Hinduism and Buddhist are the only religious philosophies that have ever made much sense to me. I am enjoying this series and learning alot! I have read the Upanishads again this year and planning to read the Vedas and The Gita later this year.
EVERYTHING ABOUT RIGVEDA IS FAKE
1. This are not written in 1500-1000 BCE proof :- The original Rigveda are in the Sharada and Devanagari scripts and are written on birch bark and paper.
2. Some people say that they are 10,000 year old or 1 lakh year old but am I right in saying this because they did not even know anything about the Indus Valley Civilization.
3. We did not find any Excavation source (archeological evidence)to support rigveda because it is fake but Mesopotamia,indus valley civilization, ashoka , buddha Egypt etc we find excavation source
4. There is no excavation source of Rigveda, so on what basis can we assume that it has become so old?
# Language and epigraphic evidence #
1. Language is the most important feature of Aryan culture. Linguists have reconstructed the Proto-Indo-European language. B.C. Began around the seventh or sixth century.
2. Hittite inscriptions of Anatolia B.C. From the nineteenth century B.C. By the seventh century, people of the western branch of Indo-European speakers have been indicated in the region. Similarly, the Mycenaean inscriptions of Greece B.C. The arrival of people of this branch is indicated in the fourteenth century. Speakers of the maritime border of the eastern branch are mentioned in Mitanni and Kassite records of Mesopotamia from the ninth to the fourteenth centuries. But such records were not found in India. so debate it
is meaningless.
Note :- Nothing has been found in India yet it has been established in India
We are so lucky to live in a world where content like this is free on the internet.
Thank you.
this life is short and you see in hindu path better and why not follow it instead of just appericiating . The proof of pudding is in its eating
Devils burn everything coz they afraid of the TRUTH...long live Hinduism...we hindus experience God
I’m an atheist, and I find this fascinating. The philosophical underbelly of Hinduism has always caught my ear. Excellent video.
In islam
Me:I am atheist
People:you are non muslim🤬 allah will burn you
In Christianity
Me:I am atheist
People: jesus will never forgive you, you will go to hell🤬
In sanatan dharma
Me: I am atheist
People: that's normal,it's your life enjoy
Have u heard of advait vedanta? U can be an atheist and still be a part of sanatan dharma, ur decesion of being an athiest is well respect within sanatanis and sanatan dharma, but do not do bad karma, or harm anyone in any manner, or take someone's life for ur own pleasure, karma( decisions) that u take always affect ur life accordingly.

buddha was a kshatriya , he studied vedas and trained under vedic gurus in meditation... most of the things in buddhism are similar to hinduism because lord buddha himself based buddhism from hinduism...
nice to read ur comment.
Great! For more information on the relationship between Buddhism and Hinduism read this article. scroll.in/article/812645/read-what-ambedkar-wrote-on-why-brahmins-started-worshipping-the-cow-and-gave-up-eating-beef
Buddhism was the reason why the Brahmins had to give up eating beef and other meats and become vegetarian. Hinduism owes a lot to Buddhism. Buddhism reformed and civilized Hinduism.
buddhism is part of hindu
Hindu's need more persons like u
Vivekananda and Ramakrishna mission is all about this with deeper understanding
Many Hindus are like this however; like Rishis they are hard to find. They seem rare however there are many. Life is a mirror so you will see them when you become like them. Read Bhagavad Gita, Chant, perform Jnanayog and become a Devotee. They will automatically come to you. Life comes from Life. Hare Krishna 🙏🕉🙏
I'm to be an X Muslim because of talks given by swamini Vimal Amanda, shri jagad GRU Kirpalu Maharaja etc etc n sir Jay Lakhani they way he explains the mythologies,mysteries n beautiful facts of Vedas n B Geeta in very friendly n soft ways, great speaker, wow , BHAGWAN bless him, jai sanatan

When you are in search for the ultimate truth, you will love everyone regardless of their religion, culture etc! I would never listen to anyone that tries to ridicules other religion to prove their religion, it sounds more like a cult. I’m so thankful to have been raised in a religion where i could question everything and not be punished. Hare Krishna 🕉🙏
Vedas themselves question their own understanding so ofcourse you are free to question as well. Reasons why books like Riddles of Hinduism by B.R.Ambedkar aren't banned in India.

99% of people born in a Sanatana dharma following family even do not know any thing on vital parts, (Veda, Upanishads and Bhagavat gita). They know little bit of the story part, and many times heard and understood the distorted stories. Thanks to Sri. Jay Lakhani. Request every one to hear this and tell others also to hear and understand what is reality.
We're too busy too mug up nonsense to get a degree, without learning anything.
Thank you so much for this information. Recently i have entered a state of thirst for spiritual knowledge. I find the practices and beliefs of hinduism, at least the very little i know of it, resonate with my soul even though i have never been a very spiritual person. I feel as if i am being awakened and i want to seek this knowledge. Thank you🙏
Thank you for your comment Mark, Do check out our online Hinduism course at this link: hindu-academy.coachzippy.com/
I am not Hindu because I was born Hindu. I am Hindu because I wanted to be honest and scientific. Could not find anything even close to Vedas.
Gita teaches right action is doing the best possible at any given moment in a world where ideal options seldom exist and not acting will only make the situation worse.
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
DHARMA:
Don't just believe only because others believe or say so....be a seeker! Reach the conclusion on your own. Find the answers yourself. That's what I love the most about Hinduism.
"Philosophy decides goal of life
Goal of life decides ur lifestyle
Lifestyle decides ur habits
Habits decide ur wants and needs
If your philosophy is disturbed, everything gets disturbed!"
Although it's not so easy to explain Dharma, but let me try in capacity of my understanding:
Dharma is based on Righteousness which in the core is based on the principle of "Minimization of Harm". Harm of what? Harm of 'Prakriti' which is neither 'aatman' nor 'brahman' bcoz aatman and brahman can't be harmed or unharmed. Prakriti includes everything in our behavioural life that we have to deal with, both living & non-living. So it includes Human society and it's Dynamic Value System, Animal Kingdom, Plants, Water, Soil, Sunlight, different Celestial bodies and everything remaining in this physical world which I might be missing here.
Making it more simpler, I would like to explain it one line or two:
First analyzing one's strengths and weaknesses according to a given dilemma situation of either conflicting responsibilities or non-conflicting responsibilities (that need to be prioritized), one should take that decision (or even at least think of it because one's intention also comes in his/her Karmic fold) at that moment in the capacity of one's intellect, experience and understanding; which would bring the maximum 'benefit' to the 'Prakriti' in whole for the larger amount of time possible. Now this 'harm' and 'benefit' requires a very detailed subjective analysis that changes from one situation to another. Dharma evolves with time on the principle of 'least harm' and harm from challenges that also keep changing with time.
For an example, let us take about 'peace'. Today to maintain peace in this age of war of faiths and civilizations, Dharma too has evolved by eliminating the principle of "One way Tolerance irrespective of what comes in return" and adding the concept of Poison Pills like Mutual-Respect and even Scriptural changes based on some minimum qualifier i.e., Mutual-Respect.
Take any other real life examples like Vegetarianism, Best World Order, Democracy, Economy, Corporate Dharma, Feminism, Freedom of Expression, Diversity in Unity vs Unity in Diversity, etc and try to critically analyze it, and you would understand what Dharma is indeed.
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
BTW, we even worship stones, rivers, cows, monkeys, snakes, birds, insects, mountains, etc in gratefulness bcoz we believe that creator is not separate in manifestations from creations. We believe God is one, but we don't believe he is in the sky hanging there and watching all from above. haha..Btw why one GOD, we believe in half God, 1/10 God, or even minus infinity God, what's your problem? We don't believe in discreet God, rather we have faith in continuous God that can't be explained in numbers. So better shut up and remain happy with your God without intruding into our affairs. Otherwise you know we will not be tolerant to the intolerant ideologies on the Dharmic principle of Mutual-Respect...Hahaha
This is not idolatry. Because idolatry means you are going after fame or money or sex or something very pleasure and more important than God to you. But if you people call ideology as idolatry too, then we Hindus can't help you because Abrahamic faiths are also about ideologies in one way or the other. But when you repeatedly say that you're going to heaven and non-belivers into hell permanently, I certainly feel pity for your EGO.
An image is an appropriate mental intermediary that "bridges between the inner world of the mind and the outer world of material reality", the image is a vehicle between sensation and reason. Idols are useful psychological catalysts, they reflect sense data and pre-existing inner feelings. They are neither the origins nor the destinations of thought but the intermediary in the human inner journey.
What they say idols is actually symbolism which is present in Christianity and Islam too. The only thing is that you keep it unknowingly whereas we keep it knowingly. Now let me tell them why symbolism is important. Notice that I say 'symbolism' important and that too in the initial phase of consciousness, but not mandatory. We believe in evolution, be it scientifically or spiritually, and therefore what we mean by 'Dharma' is not 'Religion' by the Western understanding. But that's another topic. So my point is that if the Abrahamic cults still want to say symbolism as idolatry, then please let them keep on because we are mature enough to handle disagreements decently because we believe in open architecture. But since we don't believe in bloody Tolerance(which seems very insulting to me), therefore we have our own principle of Minimization of Harm & Mutual-Respect which says that we will keep on respecting them genuinely regardless of their belief-system or faith only if they reciprocate the same for us.
I kiss Krishna's image out of love, and I am conscious enough to forgive those who would try to tear apart that paper in the hatred of image worship. The same way the picture of your parents aren't them but, through the picture you love them isn't it ? You develop a feeling and therefore you can't spit on your mother's picture...We believe in Dwaita, Advaita & Vishishtadvaita...Forget these, I can go into whatever relationship I want with the so called God. What's your problem? Every time muslim bow down to a black stone in Kaaba and they say we don't worship stone.
One time I bow down to a statue made of stone and I am an idol worshiper ?
In Hinduism I can close my eyes meditate and take the name of God without relying on objects while in Islam you MUST worship towards Kaaba's black stone so who's more idolater them or us ?
Symbolism (idolatry) is important for a beginner to concentrate. It's like you need to understand all the fundamental concepts of finite numbers (& discreet) before you try to understand the universal behavior of Infinity (& continuous). Don't you try to master in Arithmetic first before you jump to Algebra? Now this infinity may be analysed in both infinitely bigger or infinitely smaller aspects of cosmos. Therefore we have both outward (Science) and inward (Spirituality) looking approach in Hinduism unlike exclusive Abrahamic faiths which believe only in scriptures and neither in outward seeking nor in inward seeking. The only difference is that we believe in evolution and hence updates and reinterpretation of our scriptures is natural because there's no EGO in our Sanatana Tradition, whereas they think their scriptures as perfect...hahaha

Return back to your ancient roots...
this life is short and you see in hindu path better and why not follow it instead of just appericiating . The proof of pudding is in its eating
At the age of 50,Now I have understood ,what is Hinduism,Easy and effective Interpretation
Im did at 30....few months ago
The ideology provides the opportunity to evolve. That is why we still exist. Lot to be revealed yet. Reading is important. At 50 we may choose our literature among all kinds. All work when mind is receptive

Great, this is the first time i understood the relationship betn vedas upnishads gita and ramayana mahabharta and what they mean...thanks
I do find Master Lakhani an impressive orator! TA
very few people knows Vedik mathematics, Grammaticaly most accurate language Sanskrit, advance medicine and surgery Ayurveda ,Astrology,Yoga and meditation etc are some of amazing things given by Sanatan dharma/Hinduism.
A beautiful exposure of Hinduism.The embodiment of eternal truth of life.aThank you
Internet is Revolutionary for Hinduism otherwise there are very less knowledgeable people😀 शत शत गुरु जी
Thanks you Sir
1. first-hand experiences by Rishi is best
2. scriptures are second best
3. primary and secondary scriptures
4. Vedas = knowledge of reality, nature
a. hymns
b. rituals
c. revelations of experiences through poetry
Faultu
Yes and I would add #5. "One text that incorporates all 108 Upanishads, ties them all together, the Gita".
Samhita, Brahmana, Aryanaka and Upanishad are 4 styles of writing employed to compile all the ancient Vedic knowledge into 4 different scriptures, altogether termed as 'the Vedas'
Jay Lakhani is misinformed regarding some things. Please refer other sources. 🙏 May the light of wisdom illuminate your path. The only religion a sanatani follows is that of seeking knowledge.
I am very glad to part of sanatan dharm.
Thanks for your comment, please check out our website www.hindu-academy.com/ for Hinduism course, Many thanks.
What a wonderful speaker!
It's a great preaching of Hinduism...
Love it sir

Excellent presentation. Very clearly and in simple english (eloquently) explained the philosophy of Hinduism. Very interesting and it makes sense. What it denotes when one see's practicing Hindus.
First time heard such a simple explanation of hinduism
Vedas,Upanishads and Bhagwad Gita are the Treasure of Knowledge of Vedic Hinduism.
Hinduism is very unique extremely elaborate and awesome glad to be new to it and study it.
I bow to the divine light in you. धन्यवादा

@@citizenOfNowhere777It was the spoken language of gods too.
Sanskrutam has flexibility to create new words in it and code a long information in a small Stanza.
Absolutely wow talk.
Amazing. WHY WASN'T all this taught in schools.
Hindus are not allowed to teach Hinduism in India.😢
Bhagawad Gita teaching in schools would supposedly hurt the religious sentiments of the minorities. However this rule does not apply to the minorities. in India
Welcome to hinduism 🚩
I am so blessed , at last I found what I am looking!
Greeting from hindu Bali thank you swami
धन्यवाद् जे लखानी जी 🙏

@@adnanadill vedas has hymns that talk about the panchmahabhutas and agni is one of them. And brother you are reading chapter 1( first mandalam) it was written at last. The 2 mandal was written first. Truth is truth even if no one believes it. If you are an indian your ancestors were hindus dont forget. No matter what religion you follow today. All lead to god. You r actually looking for a different book and got something different. There are more vedas,upnishads and sacred works in sanskrit than in quran + bible.
Cannot ever express how I feel whenever I listen the legend Sir Jay Lakhani.
I love great knowledge great philosophy
I wish I could give you more thumbs up, please accept my gratitude. Never have I read a more beautiful scripture than the Gita, when at last I set it down I understood what sacred text meant for the first time. As long as I live I will preserve it by sharing it.
To be totally honest, this is the only CZcams video with a crystal clear explanation. Excellent content. Thank you so much for this Jay.
So very clear and inspiring! Wow! Thank you so much 🌷
What a phenomenal teacher
Long live sanathana Dharma!!!
Two years I gave to crack a competitive exam. We had a paper GS and in that we had to learn histry/ancient history/vedas, shruti and smriti, Upanishads, samhitas etc.
I kept in my mind to read more on upnashids and bgahwad. After my exam I am so attached to these texts..Which ever philoshical point I like I jot it down. Though I had a practise of reading B.Gita now in this lockdown I invested all my time chapter wise and it is summary of Upanishads as they match many points. I am living section by section line by line. I took help of the prabhuda books The bhagwad gita as it is. Loving more and more Hinduism.
Although I knew the facts which you told but the way you have explained with so much simplicity I am Reverend...thank you and regards for the video. Once again thanks.
Which exam did you clear?
Jai shree krishna
Thank You so Much Sir, I Love your preacher , Regards from Bali
Salute the way you explained. Namskaram from India.(Gujarat)
Great information 👍

This is the best and precise vedio I have ever watched, now I know what to read to get the beautiful knowledge our Rishis have given to us.❤️
Hinduism should be revived, propogated across the globe.
Teaching should be put on you tube.
Nobody is doing this effort
Poetry is at bottom a criticism of life❤
