    Jai Sriman narayana. Thank you for this awesome Q&A. I greatly appreciated your concise answers and crystal clear explanation. Your straightforward approach is 0:11 refreshing. You never repeated the same thing over and over again. Your English is good. Keep up the good work. I’d like to see more such videos. I can already tell you are going to be very successful. Your style is unique from the rest. You should also do an intro video- how long have you been studying the scriptures. How did you manage to get mainstream education as well as Vedic. Love to hear your experiences. May Sri Ramanujar bless you and give you the knowledge and strength to spread his message across the globe. Jai sriman narayana !

    very well explained swamy ,very rare nowadays to get an answer validated and quoted by Shastras, you are giving genuine information without a tinge of self explanation or theory, just saying what is in Shastras, great explanation and wise questions also by 2 swamy's. Eagerly waiting for Karma theory Video
    eager to know
    1) Does Astrological remedies on Karma work, and why does it work for some and not for some of them, if it worked then every body could do the remedy and become/get what they desire in Life. Do we need punya to even get correct astrological remedy.
    2) "Prayaschittani asheshani, tapaha karmatmakani vai, yani tesham asheshanam, shri krishna anu smaranam param" as per this shloka(maybe from Vishnu Purana) does remembering that we are dasa's of Krishna be the biggest Prayaschitta and remove negative karma?
    3)Did Krishna show to the world that Karma doesn't leave anyone? like he killed Vali as Rama by hiding and he got killed by a hunter as Krishna, because Krishna did not go to Paramapada directly with everyone like how Rama went to Vaikunta with all in ayodhya and also the story of Gandhari;s shaapam/curse to Krishna and Yadavas prove karma theory?
    4) Why doesn't Bhagavan protect himself, he needs protection from Devotees, Many died in Srirangam, melukote etc because of invaders, however I heard a story that in Tirumala they could not invade, Thousands of Wild boars attacked them and protected Thirumala. Why is he protected only in Tirumala?

    If yes how can existence without sixth sense and which perpetrates actions for survival accrue karma? If no karma is accrued how does that existence evolve?
    If no, then taking the birth of human is a matter of pure chance?

    The first question in this lecture was about when creation began and if jiva is created. While answering a kathorpanishat verse was quoted 'na jayayer ...'. There the topic was about paramatma and that knowing whom sorrows end. There was no reference Jiva in the entire Kathopanishad. So the quote appropriate?

    Namaskaram. Your podcast is nice. This is the first time I'm asking a question in CZcams comments section. My question is what's the view of Visishtaadvaita sampradaya/Sri Ramanuja reg. Lord Shiva? To give a context to my question:- Popular view is that they are one and the same Supreme deity as per the puranas, all of which are compiled by Sri Veda Vyasa. In Sri Rama avatar and Sri Krishna avatar, Lord Vishnu worshipped Lord Shiva. As per Shiva Purana, Arunachala Mahatmya, Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma worshipped Lord Shiva. In Bhasmasura Vrittaanta, Lord Shiva is saved by Lord Vishnu. As per Devi Bhagavatam, there are several Brahmaandaas, each having its own Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva and all of them pray and worship Mother Devi.

    A very good podcast indeed! Noted a few points below.
    1. During the podcast, the questioner used the words, " a place called Vaikuntha". A place or a state? Where and what exactly is Vaikuntha?
    2. Thanks for clarifying sharanagati is also a type of gyana. Very nicely explained.
    3. Thanks for the incredible explanation of sharira-atma-bhava. This led to the bhagavat svaroopa and vigraha difference in the podcast that seemed like a natural extension. My question is on worshippable vigrahas: is there a difference between a-sadhaarana vigraha such as Ranganatha of Srirangam and a man-made vigraha that is consecrated? Since both kinds are currently being worshipped, are they both the same or is one more "powerful" than the other?
    Looking forward to the many more podcasts.
    Many many thanks! 🙏

      Ye yatha maam prapadyante...
      If a bhakta reciprocates to bhagwan even through a painting, bhagwan takes it as his a-saadhaarana shareera. There is a story of Sri Ramanuja prostrating to image of Ranganaatha made on the sands of the Kaveri. He even accepted the prasadam I.e. sands from the children, who were having this divine play.
      Also, after Pran-pratistha, the Vigraha becomes a-saadhaarana which means that there is sankalpa-vishesha of bhagwan.

      @omoshiroi2326 Před 29 dny +1

      1. Moksha is a state and Sri Vaikuntha is a place.
      State of Moksha is defined as Jivatma having infinite dharma-bhuta-jnana. This means that it becomes omniscient as it's attributive knowledge pervades infinitely to such an extent as Brahman. By function of this, it is not only able to know everything but is also able to embody everything (similar sharira atma bhava here) and serve Sriman Narayana.
      Sri Vaikuntha is the loka where these mukta jivas reside to do kainkarya. This loka is outside the temporary universe of space and time. It is not made of the 5 elements but shuddha sattva prakriti. Hence it is beyond samsara as there is no rajas and tamas. Once this realm is reached, there is no going back (na cha punaravartate, na cha punaravartate).
      2. Archa Avataram is when Bhagavan embodies a vigraha and exists for the sake of samsaris and mumukshus. There is no difference between them, he could inhabit a natural formation, a divine formation or a man-sculpted stone. All are equally powerful in granting all Aishwarya siddhis to samsaris and exalting them to Sri Vaikuntha.

    • @Bhakthamrutham
      @Bhakthamrutham  Před 24 dny +1

      1) Srivaikunta is a place. It is on the other shore of River Viraja which separates the Samsara from Vaikunta.
      Even a man-made vigraha may become an asadharana vigraha of Bhagavan. There are no differences in the 'power' or any other qualities.

    Namaskaram swamy one doubt
    One of my friend asked that
    Evwn though bhagavan'part is atma and atma is exactly like bhagavan but after atma realising the god it becomes god and after realisation eventhough atma's moksha is blessed by bhagavan , atma and bhagavan are similar there is no difference between atma and god in qualities,bliss
    He add that
    After realisation god(according to him part of god is also god) himself went through ajnana and again he became god.
    He is a shakta he also belive difference in god and soul but he says that after realisation there is no difference
    But in our sampradaya it is said that after mukti soul is exactly like god, soul attained the god like post due to god's wish and god is antaryami of every soul even though soul's nature and qualities are same as god
    But he cant understand the difference between god and soul
    Is their any difference between god and soul after mukti
    He says that part is not different from whole so after mukti part will say that iam the whole ,so after mukti there is no difference between soul and god
    Can you kindly clarify swamy

    Great discussion. Still half way through, but wish to suggest the following :
    1. Kindly use Sanskrit words only if you are convinced there is no word in english to explain it. Direct the listener to a text or video for understanding the meaning of the Sanskrit word. E.g Atma is not soul.
    2. Some erroneously discribe Visishtawitham as qualified dualism which is wrong as there are three seperate thatwams in our Ramanuja sampradayam. Any views?

    Azhwar emperumanar jeeyar thiruvadigale saranam.
    Namaskaram swami. Sorry to bother you with questions. But these have been bothering me for so long. Requesting your kripa to help me understand.
    Vaikundam is a physical place or a state of mind?
    I am asking this question because some acharyas say that it is not a imaginary place or state of mind because if it is so, once the imagination stops/state of mind changes, the jivatma comes back. But if it becomes a physical place, then it is bound by space.(and time and anything bound by space and time is subject to destruction during pralaya kalam). So either ways , there is a problem in the logic.
    One who goes to vaikundam comes back or not?
    Because in the sastras they are saying "Nacha punar aavardhate!Nacha punar aavardhate!"(he doesnt come back ! he doesnt come back!) . But srivaishnavas are saying swami namazhwar's next avarata was Swami ramanuja and his next avatara was Swami Ramyajamatra muni. All nityasuri's for that matter who are from vaikundam (sudarsana chakram as thirumazhisai azhwar, tulasi malai as tondaradipodi azhwar etc) how did they come to this earth from vaikundam?Vaikundam is supposed to be a place of no return. If they are coming back then, can we say that vaikundam might not be the actual liberation or the point of no return?
    Kindly pardon me if my question is sounding too direct. Adiyen ramanuja dhasi.

      Vaikuntham is a place beyond Samsaram, separated by Viraja.
      As told in Purusha Suktam, "pado asya Vishwa bhootani, tripaadasya amritam divi".
      From Vaikuntha, none comes down due to karma. After coming, they are not affected by Karma. Ramanuja is avatara of Ananta shesha. He is forever in Vaikuntha. He came as Ramanuja and Varavara muni or took these bodies and came to Samsara through his dharma-bhoota-gyaanam"

      Vaikunta is a physical place. But that doesn't mean it gets destroyed during pralaya. It is through the Shastras that we come to know about pralaya. If the same Shastras say that Vaikunta is eternal, we must agree.
      Have a lot more to say..but refraining. You can contact us thru the details given in the description for more details.
      Coming to the part of 'na ca punaraavaetate'... This particular verse says that mukthathma doesn't return to this material world due to karma. But he may return and stay here temporarily due to Bhagavan's will. He won't be affected by karma, etc.
      Some Acharyas opine that Jeevatma stays in Paramapadam while he obtains a body here and controls it through his Dharmabhutha gnyanam

      There are two types of explanations given by Acharyas.
      1) The dvarapalakas are not from Vaikunta but are from Vishnuloka/ Kaarya vaikunta. They are not liberated souls.
      2) The dvarapalakas are Vaikuntavasis who descended to Vishnuloka (to serve Bhagavan) where the incident happens. Though they are not affected by karma/shaapa, they act so, to show the world, the negative effects of disrespecting devotees.

  • @Seehima
    @Seehima Před měsícem

    Hare Krishna swami,
    We understand that things which have a beginning have an end. If karma can stop surely it implies that it has a beginning (even if it unknown)?
    How does Jiva atma’s free will play a role in karma, especially if samsara for the individual has been anadi/beginningless ? While I’m not helping my situation now with my ignorance , surely I didn’t chose to be a nitya baddha? How does causality work if my karma has been present since time immemorial? I must start punya or papa then like a chain reaction it escalates and is now too complicated to explain.
    If I am atma (sat, cit and anadam) then how could I beginninglessly/anadi be in a state of ignorance ?
    It either implies that Lord Narayana arbitrarily assigns souls as nitya mukta or nitya badha or that there is no free will or that the Advaita vadi is correct understanding that we are just ignorant of our liberated state.
    If we state that “nitya baddha means that there was never a time when we were not in samsara” rather then “its beginning is unknown”, we are inviting more problematic questions and creating more doubts.
    🙏🙇🏽‍♀️

    • @manishkumar-xq6xn
      @manishkumar-xq6xn Před měsícem

      This is very well dealt in Brahma-sutra, and swami have quoted the sutra. I checked Govinda Bhashya. There also the acharya says karma to be anaadi or beginning less. Check 2.1.35.
      Also check the last sutra "na cha punaravartate".
      In Bhaagwata Sandarbha, Anuchheda 51 says "tato’skhalanam" i.e. none fall down from Vaikuntha.
      Also, Narayana doesn't allot anyone as nitya and other as baddha. That's like that since anaadi, without beginning. Just like Bhagwan.
      If at all we assume some beginning of Karma, the question will arise, why someone is nitya and someone is baddha

      This question comes from a logical mind, which thinks everything must come from one eternal source.

      But for the sake of understanding, I'll explain the answer.
      Let's take the ocean, it has salt. Now if anyone asks when was salt added to the ocean or which one came first, ocean or salt? It's hard to answer. Cause, salt existed from the time ocean existed.
      Another example is, cloud and rain. Which one existed first? Hard to tell.

      Pranam. The concept of creation in our sampradayas is quite different from the creation usually refuted by foreign atheists. Since we have this concept of anaadi samsaar, we don't say that Bhagavan created everything from literally 'nothing'. But rather, Bhagavan is the creator in the same sense as a potter is the creator of a pot.
      In our sampradaya, Time is classified as two - 1) Mahaakaala and 2) Avaantarakaala. Mahaakaala is considered to be nitya. The compartmentalization of this Mahaakaala due to the movements of Sun,etc leads to Avaantarakaala (Time as we know).

    I think the only question nobody can answer is: how did the first karma take place? That is pretty much the only place where the theory of karma fails.
    If all of us were pure jīvas without any saṁskāras, and if we were equally introduced to the material nature then how come most of us have such different lives? We should’ve ideally made the same choice, being pure beings.
    The only way you can answer this is by claiming that it was us who chose our life but then again, why would we choose a life of suffering as opposed to sat-cit-ānanda?
    If God chose it for us then how can he be fair?
    If none of the above are a possibility then it just means everything is pretty much random and without a cause, hence creation and existence being meaningless as a whole.

      No, people don't choose eternal happiness, instead worldly pleasures.
      A root cause of all problems.

      Karmas are a part of Maya. It may very well have been random. Like characters created for a play.
      My question is: Why does creation have to exist? Why can't Bhagwan be Unmanifest and spare jivatmas all the trouble and nonsense?

      The cyclic nature of birth and death is the reason why you cannot pin point to ground zero or the first karma! Think about it. We are in the 28th chaturyuga of the 7th manvantara of the current Brahma, who just turned 51! You would think then going all the way back to day 1 of current Brahma will be the ground zero of karma. But nope! Because you don’t know which Brahma it is now and how many Brahmas were there prior to the current Brahma! That is why it is said Atma is anadhi. There is no possible way to trace back to the first karma at all.

      @@Hunteriscoming - This is beautifully answered by Swami Desikan in the first chapter of his book - Rahasya Traya Saaram. Swami Desikan draws an analogy with the story of a young prince who gets goes astray in the jungle as a toddler. He gets picked by some tribes who nurture him and so as years roll by, he assumes their identity until one day one of the court priest happens to pass by their village and notices the boy in the tribe but not really belonging to them. And through this priest, the prince is United back with the king. Here king is the supreme lord, the prince is us - jivatmas and the priest is our acharyas. We have all gone astray from time unknown and the supreme lord is waiting for us to go back to him.

    @8.11 you say at some point of time Bhagwan created the first time Jivatma. Before that you said Jivatma and Prakriti are from Anadi, there is no beginning. Aren't you contradicting yourself?

      He is explaining the problem that arises if we accept first creation.

      No contradiction. We have clearly mentioned that Jeevatma is not created. The creation we mention later is the allotment of bodies and organs to Jeevatmas.
