Ashtavakra Gita - The Enlightened Life | Swami Sarvapriyananda

[@AmiraAroraOfficial]

Swami ji is simply ❤

[@gopinathrp]

I remember during one of his earlier talk in the past, Swamiji quoted - "Where all the philosophies of the world ends; Ashtavakra Gita starts!". It clearly states the grandeur and importance of this scripture to realize the ultimate truth! Thanks Swamiji 🙏🙏

[@ramakantsingh2903]

Actually this is a quote from the translation of the Astawakra Gita by the name The Heart of Awareness by Thomas Byrom what Swamiji was referring to.It's beautiful poetic translation by the English author

🙏🕉🙏 Beautifully said and as Always Beautifully delivered by Swami Sarvapriyananada. The Astavakra Gita is probably the most humbling answer to the most important and pivotal query asked in the whole of the Great Bhagavad Gita; Oh my Dear Lord, how am I to understand who I am? Please be merciful and tell me for my existence rests only on this knowledge and surrendered devotional practice. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 8

[@jorgetfreitas3167]

Swami Sarvapriyananda is one of the great teachers of advaita vedanta from current days. Always with a good mood, clarity and simplicity in his words, he conveys the profound understanding from advaita vedanta and the wisdom of ancient sages and the highest sacred texts. My reverences to you Swamiji.

Hello mate, same feelings! I wish to start a Vedantic club (virtual) for all intermediate seekers, who discuss and talk about the truth, not really arguments or debates. Would u like to join as the first member?

[@waldwassermann]

All is the Self and the Self alone is. That much is true. Now the question is; why is there as such diversity within Self. Or, why does Self perceive itself as diverse? Hence we arrive at a (singular) beautiful Theory. The purpose of Self is Love. Love verily one's purpose. One's purpose verily Love. As such the Gospel; the Gospel of Love. Love each other for the purpose of otherness is togetherness. Thou verily art the eternal One celebrating itself as Manifoldness for Love. Love. Love. Love.

Kindness,compassion,mercy,charity are all more important than the concept of karma. Who can say to someone who is poor,abused,sick, that it is your bad karma has not realised the treasure of compassion,forgiveness and the mystery of divine love.😊

[@roysunrohit]

It means you have understand neither compassion nor Karma. Invest sometime educating yourself first.

[@SamuelLipscomb-bt1io]

​@@roysunrohitall I'm saying is that poverty, famine, sick ess, old age, is not a result of karma but rather a result of chaos. Karma is a construct of human ideals and values, it is not the actual patterns of the cosmos... How about you do some study as well!

[@roysunrohit]

@@SamuelLipscomb-bt1io I keep studying most of the time and expect the same from the world. I recommend you to get sometime and study Astavakra Gita. Your understanding will refine a lot thereafter. There is nothing like chaos. It’s all matrix and a universe with butterfly effect. There is nothing random and chaos. You just need to make your limits tend to infinitely small to see the system hidden even in chaos. Even entropy needs poles for existence . Can keep explaining it, but better you invest your time studying Astavakra Gita and Shiva Sutra.

[@ashokkohli1675]

Our ancients have given not only unto us but to and for the whole of the world and humanity the most profound thought on the query of our existence and its relationship with the source, is pointed out for us as THAT which we Are . It is to the their eternal credit for having laid for all the food for thought about the marvel of Existence itself , distinguishable yet inseparable. To hear Swami Sarvaprianandji expounding the truism in lucid and honest comments referring to all the great souls and works that have commented on vedant is , to say the least, very savoury and leaves us satiated. The fact that Vedant , particularly, Adwait has no conflict with the philosophy of science is assuring about its profundity. It is for this that the claim to be a Vishva Guru by India , that is Bharat, is credible.

Most profound lecture I have ever listened

[@amarjeets7372]

Swami Ji, please accept my namaskar to you with all my due respect. You have come into my life as the 2nd biggest blessing. 1st one has been, meeting my respected Guru who has shown me God, within during diksha like Vivekananda going to Sri Paramhansa Ji asking him to show God to him. I have just now words to describe what I have seen within but my spiritual journey started from that day which was like 16yrs before. I have got introduced to Advaita Vedanta like 3-4 yrs before when I was looking for some answers to some of the serious questions on this path. That was the time when God brought me to your class and I got a good upliftment in my Sadhna and more crystal understanding. I am a baptised Sikh and now I came to know that the Gurbani in Sri Guru Granth Sahib speaks a lot about Vedant and it really helped me understand from deeper point of view. What more to write, I wish I can sit next to you one day to share my spiritual journey. May we all attain the highest.

[@achintyabiswas5388]

If you have seen God as you say then how question arises?Not clear to me.

[@achintyabiswas5388]

I am not questioning your seeing God. I t is for my clarification.

[@amarjeets7372]

Respected brother, Achintya Biswas Ji. Thanks for your question or query. I am not fit to comment on this as this is something to realize and cannot be explained. But still from my limited intellect, will try to say something on this for you as a seeker on this path. For any Sadhak to start his inner journey or to start believing in GOD, it must start from realization or seeing God within in the initial stage, which is only possible with the help of a PURAN GURU or Enlighten Soul who holds the authority to make you see within and outside. One must pray to meet such an enlightened soul in life. That's what is written in all the scriptures too about who is real SAINT or GURU otherwise, you have nothing through which you can know whether you have reached the right Guru or not and whether God exists or not. You need strong conviction for which seeing is a must for any sadhak. Without seeing it's mere a talk or belief which is good in the initial stage of faith but one needs to raise and seek realization as a seeker of truth. Seeing God as (an inner reflection) is not the end, it's just a beginning. A question arises since the EGO is still alive the knower is still present. Seeing God will not eliminate the EGO, it happens with the practice and grace of your perfect master or Guru. May we all attain the highest. God bless you.

[@niminair3953]

Profound. Thank you. Understanding, knowing and integrating it all. - "I exist hence the world/universe exists" are the words that explains it all to me and to my mind. Integration and embodying it all. And that's all that is required to realize that Aham Brahmasmi. Thathvam Asi.
