If you listen to this talk, and understand it for the truth that it is. You will see the universe for what it really is . The words contained here point directly to the truth. They point directly to the source! You!
Sairam Swami ji. It is hard to find words to Thank You Swami Ji. For explaining it all so clearly that it is finally Clear in the mind. Had to hear it more than once But Got IT finally Got IT. The joy of Getting IT Is itself awesome. With Infinite Love and Gratitude saiasha
Blessed to be able to listen to the Series on Drg Drshya Viveka - Prakrana Grantha. Heartfelt gratitudes and pranams to Guruji Swami Sarvapriyananda ji.
I often saw the moon and the sun at the same time but for me it was the moon the most important....it was before listening to SWAMI..with all my gratitude
Upon carefully analyzing one can get around with this doubt of Brahman & world it is like: As Swami ji Already Explained very well: Brahman is Sat i.e Existence Absolute, Chit i.e Consciousness absolute (Consciousness in itself, not the chida-bahas), Ananda i.e Bliss Absolute Because the source of bliss or happiness is Brahman only or more precisely Brahman is Bliss itself . Here Brahman is none other than real you, Therefore Source of Bliss is you only we mistake it as the Object as source of bliss, How we do this mistake? We do it every-time, you wish for things(objects) when obtained, you become Happy, Swami ji explained very beautifully by saying: "It is particular state of mind", Now we know exactly, how is it particular state. Whole world Extracts it's existence from Existence absolute, i.e Sat, Borrows Awareness from Awareness Absolute i.e Chit I.e Everything is Extracted and Borrowed from the Brahman which is none Other than _Your_ real nature. & Bliss is always in you, it is not the object therefore Brahman i.e The real you is Also Bliss Absolute. so, this explains very well, why on realizing, you get the infinite bliss & Freedom(From objects-form Relationship). The only example of Rope mistaken for snake is enough to Explain or Prove Advaita Vedanata...(in case if one is getting confused with multiple examples) We say Duality exists(b/c of our ignorance) But Gaudapadacharya says: "Whatever is created will surely be destroyed No Doubt but if it is _Maya_ at first place how there is duality by any chance? therefore Non-duality is Parama-artha" How Maya? One example Owns it all: When you realize that you misunderstood Rope as Snake, you come to know that, there was no Snake At all it was rope all the time therefore Duality is Just Advidya(ignorance), Mistaking Brahman as World with Plurality is Just Advidya(ignorance), Maya(Mithya). Similarly during our whole life, We keep on mistaking/misunderstanding Rope as Snake, Garland ETC but never try see it as rope, the goal is to see Rope as Rope only not the snake or Garland. This can be said as, "One Formula to Explain it all(everything, universe ETC)" :D
+Gurender Singh , i have a small question: if consiouness reflects in all beings, then all minds should work in the same way, such that there should not be any difference, but there is a suttle body called the intellect, which is different in all beings, they say "buddi karmanusara" , need to read more on brahma sutra bashyam , for this... does laws of karma applies also in this cosmic reality?
+bharath kumar You are on Brahma Sutra bashyam already ? haha nice.. yes now the questions & thank you for giving me opportunity to discuss. "if consciousness reflects in all beings, then all minds should work in the same way," No, The nature of working of being does not depends upon Consciousness, For, Consciousness has No Nature. The Srutis(text,Upanishads) for above statement's support says " That highest is Nirakara(Formless), Ajam(Never-born),Unique, Withoutparts, No Vak(Speech) can reach him, No sense organs can reach him, No Thought can reach him" Therefore he is in total stable state, i.e he never was affected at first place, he is so to say, Nature-Less. so, this clears your question, why all beings are not the same, the difference lies in The Karmas, The mind but same Chaitanyam Illumines all. The example in it's support: As swami ji use to explain, there are multiple pots with water in them but same sun above, we mistake the sun for little reflections in pots, i.e number of pots = number of little sun's image(reflection) in them so, the truth is, it is same sun shining above but different reflections, hope it clears it all :) Next: "but there is a suttle body called the intellect, which is different in all beings, they say "buddi karmanusara" , need to read more on brahma sutra bashyam , for this... does laws of karma applies also in this cosmic reality?" Yes, there is Subtle body called Sukshma Sharira which covers 2 koshas(coverings) of your body, viz Mind, Intellect. Now, what decides how a particular Sukshma Sharira will behave ? The karmas, the karma chakar decides everything, do good, receive good, do bad, receive bad but reject receiving = Mukti. How it all Started? it was never started, ananta, infinite cycles of death & birth till one starts learning vedanata, As swami ji beautifully explains: "When your past karmas are too good, you then come to vedanata class" haha.. yes that's how it works.. Now one extra question: "Why this all differences at first place?" Answer - According to Advatia, Ignorance is the sole reason when washed by highest knowledge, all becomes one since ignorance which is dividing vanishes. it will be like: Turning ON the lights in room to see a pot which was always there regardless of light's presence or Darkness. Hope this helps. Thank you.
+bharath kumar Definitely, there are six very good techniques mentioned in Drg-Drishya-Viveka which if one practices, can advance in his Sanatna journey, i do them all the time, it is like anywhere anytime for me.. i won't ruin it for you anymore now, let's wait for swami ji's explanation. :D Thank you
Asti Bhaati Priya... In poet's verse, the beloved who shines in existence. Naama rupa For byabahara, and we dwells intensely so much in name n form we ignore to look at asti, bhati, priya. So true. Sadly we miss the bliss. The joy, the shine. God hid himself in our experience... Because he / she doesn't trust us... Cause we are thives... How God knows, He/She is us... 😁😁
"Language breaks down at the point of explaining the absolute" - so true. Language is constructed to make sense out of the known world around us. Experiential knowledge cannot be verbalized as such.
Dear Swamiji, I read in Yog Vasistha that universe is inside the mind. Is it true? Here's the relevant verse: "This world-appearance abides in the mind, even as there is space within the pot; if the pot is broken, the illusory division of space vanishes; and if the mind ceases to be, the concept of a world within the mind also ceases to be. "
Thank you Swamiji for this wonderful discourse. To my understanding with respect to the three characteristics borrowed from Brahman, with respect to the third (ananda-happiness, bliss) a sattvic mind is of the outermost importance ?.
So swami from this point of view, the world of a human being is then made up of objects and people which are actually maya or is the world nothing but a collection of experiences which all have those 5 qualities?
⊙ Existence ⊙ Consciousness ⊙ Bliss ⊙ Name ⊙ Form First three " Bramhan ". Next two " World of Appearances ". I understand the existence and consciousness as bramhan in " any experience " but I still don't get, how bliss is bramhan in every experience? 🤔
i have a small question: if consiouness reflects in all beings, then all minds should work in the same way, such that there should not be any difference, but there is a suttle body called the intellect, which is different in all beings, they say "buddi karmanusara" , need to read more on brahma sutra bashyam , for this... does laws of karma applies also in this cosmic reality? , may sarvapriyananda swamiji answers my question :)
Před 8 lety
The mind is an object that is subjected to any external changes. Your feelings/emotions changes with respect to changes in your surroundings i.e. you mind is subjected to the changes in your surrounding. You should watch the first 2 parts,it is explained there.
When you say "borrowed from Brahman..." are you saying we mistake these properties in the world around us as belonging to the objects themselves - rather than seeing these properties as belonging to Brahman alone ? Does this not imply these attributes to Brahman ? Where is the error in this analysis ?
The world is unreal and the Brahman is real. Me listening to this lecture in the youtube video of the swami is perceived in the world plus Bhraman, Is this lecture real or unreal.
when u say I itself it means u r referring to I as body mind complex who can only experience(bhokta). Witness consciousness can never be experiencer. That's why when u read advaita u must distinguish vyavaharika satya and paramarthika satya.
Swamiji's lectures are very helpful to all the seekers. Some pointers _ sat,chit ananda ( not separate from each other) constitute Brahman. Name and form are the world. Again name and form are not separate from brahman. If you remove 'satchit' there is no name and form. If you remove wood there is no table.
48:57 " sometimes mystical language , abstract analysis , obsucres the fact that you are talking about the most vivid thing in our lives..."
I had an epiphany listening to this episode. Thank you Swamiji 🙏🏼
If you listen to this talk, and understand it for the truth that it is. You will see the universe for what it really is . The words contained here point directly to the truth. They point directly to the source! You!
For the first time in my life I have got a glimpse of the eternal truth behind the creation of the universe. Waiting eagerly for part 8.
Can you say more about that
Thank you so much! Swami makes the thick, difficult texts so digestible. I'm so grateful for these videos.
This is amazing, I have never heard it said like that. Just wow!
Sairam Swami ji. It is hard to find words to Thank You Swami Ji. For explaining it all so clearly that it is finally Clear in the mind. Had to hear it more than once But Got IT finally Got IT. The joy of Getting IT Is itself awesome. With Infinite Love and Gratitude saiasha
Bless you swami ji for blessing my life with this beautiful explanation of Advait Vedanta 🙏 om shanti shanti!

Beautifully explained !! I have developed a deep interest in knowing more about Vedanta through this series. Please keep sharing , thanks a ton!
I often saw the moon and the sun at the same time but for me it was the moon the most important....it was before listening to SWAMI..with all my gratitude
Finally..

We do it every-time, you wish for things(objects) when obtained, you become Happy, Swami ji explained very beautifully by saying: "It is particular state of mind", Now we know exactly, how is it particular state.

& Bliss is always in you, it is not the object therefore Brahman i.e The real you is Also Bliss Absolute.
so, this explains very well, why on realizing, you get the infinite bliss & Freedom(From objects-form Relationship).
The only example of Rope mistaken for snake is enough to Explain or Prove Advaita Vedanata...(in case if one is getting confused with multiple examples)
We say Duality exists(b/c of our ignorance) But Gaudapadacharya says:
"Whatever is created will surely be destroyed No Doubt but if it is _Maya_ at first place how there is duality by any chance? therefore Non-duality is Parama-artha"
How Maya?
One example Owns it all:

Great
⊙ Existence
⊙ Consciousness
⊙ Bliss
⊙ Name
⊙ Form
First three " Bramhan ".
Next two " World of Appearances ".
I understand the existence and consciousness as bramhan in " any experience " but I still don't get, how bliss is bramhan in every experience? 🤔

Any body explain what was the last question?
Swamiji
If we are the Bramham why we are negative or doing sin?
🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Hi. I have a question
conciouness is all pervading but I am here and not there thn how can I everywhere??????
He's talking about "you" the witness consciousness, not the body mind complex.
Is existence, consciousness, bliss aware it is veiled and projected by maya?
An emphatic "yes".
@@cpadmajacchintaluri3718 Is existence, consciousness, bliss the "veiler" and "projector?" Are existence, consciousness, bliss and maya one?
@@peterday3253 Yes. Everything is Brahman
👌🙏
Then what is heart
The world is unreal and the Brahman is real. Me listening to this lecture in the youtube video of the swami is perceived in the world plus Bhraman, Is this lecture real or unreal.
when u say I itself it means u r referring to I as body mind complex who can only experience(bhokta). Witness consciousness can never be experiencer. That's why when u read advaita u must distinguish vyavaharika satya and paramarthika satya.
🏳️🌈
if brahman created the universe who created brahman
Raiesh Ghimire universe is not created...it is projected by maya.
Swamiji's lectures are very helpful to all the seekers.
Some pointers _
sat,chit ananda ( not separate from each other) constitute Brahman. Name and form are the world. Again name and form are not separate from brahman. If you remove 'satchit' there is no name and form. If you remove wood there is no table.
