Dearest Swami! You could not give a better gift to humanity than this knowledge...You are tireless and loving soul and one of the Greatest men ever walked this planet... With our love and gratitude.

But, alas! Inspite of his tireless efforts to inculcate ancient Vedantic wisdoms amongst the most brutely materialistic people of this globe, he would never be considered for Nobel Peace prize! Rather it may be his great prize if some of his American followers come to the path of salvation and self sacrifice from the multfarius channels of lust, greed, sex, materialistic power and aggression to grab others' wealths etc.

[@awadheshsingh3039]

Good answer

Respected dear Swamiji, i was disturbed yesterday why i am remaining the same inspite of all sadhanas and doing sravanam of geetha and few more texts. You made it clear that my mind needs little more cleaning and a little less clinging to this ephemeral world. 🌺🕉️🙏

[@eswarsamy]

Listening to his discourse is like drinking honey. But assimilating and bring it day to day practice is another. Wonderful wonderful. When I sit for sadana assimilating absorbing tears well up . If we want to do justice to his tireless teaching, it’s only by practising what he teaches.I see God in him great Vivekanda, Ramkrishna Paramahamsa and beloved matha Saradha. My pranayam

[@tamilvanan7793]

Swamiji is saying you need to be enlightened to live the truth. Good things will happen to those who wait. Every Mahans assured it. Its on our hands. Surrender totally and wait at the feet of that. Grace is the one, 'Truth, way and the life'

[@shivashankarchickermane2261]

Pranams Swamiji, your enlightening teaching on Vedanta is a blessing, guiding us through the essence of different Upanishads. With respects and gratitude, Shanti Chickermane,

[@SwamiKrishnan]

Swami Ji evidence to the fact that the Guru Parampara will produce stalwarts who like lighthouses will help us navigate Samsara Sagara. HH Swami Sarvapriyananda Ji Maharaj is a gem among such Gurus. Swami Ji we pray that you will serve to uplift humanity and bring back a humane quotient in us. Deerga Danda Pranam ./\.

Hari Om Swamiji, Dandvat Pranams! Chzran Sparsh! The topic discussed in this video is indeed a million dollar question which keeps hovering over the mind of every sincere seeker.

I don't know how to change my life around... I watch this video and what arises in me is overwhelm and stress. my dream life feels 999-trillion universes away from my reality: - I have minimal work (I live in poverty, always have) - the place I rent is old, old and teeny tiny-tiny-tiny - I have passions and talents that could make me rich, but... - I'm single, have been my whole life, I die for true love - fat and diabetic - old now, no longer attractive - no friends - always a million-trillion stressful things to do...

[@abhishekspykes]

When knowledge is a subject of mind and these all are beyond mind..how can knowledge be sufficient.? Data second stage is information, 3rd stage is knowledge, 4th stage is experience and 5th stage is Realisation. Eg- a kid can also have information how to drive a car in a manual but he/she can't drive.as that's just data and information. When he actually learns how to drive- that is the knowledge but still he has to be so cautious..not realised yet..but after practicing driving, he gains experience and then he doesn't need to put his mind while driving..it happens automatically like changing gears of a car. That phase leads to Realisation..

One has to be a adhikari (eligibility) to assimilate the Vedantic knowledge. How to qualify. 1. Pancha maha yagna-Deva yagna, Pitru yagna, Brahma yagna, Jana yagna and Bhoota yagna. Then 2. Sadhana Chatusthya Sampeti. a) Viveka, or Wisdom b) Vyragya or dispassionate. c) Desire or Mumukshwata. d) Disipline or Shataka (6) sympathy The first one is called Karma yoga and the second is called four important sadhanas and qualities requird.

[@krishnamsdhoni]

Gyana and karma are not different. Gyana karma kriya bhakti are all steps of a stair case. Interconnected and incomplete without each other. There can be a different approach for this path. But the path is the same. Its about understanding the gyana and turning it into upayoga as a part of life and make your life in a way to attain gyana. Its important the vision of the person and the place he is walking is correct before he tries to understand the trees of the forest. The mis understanding is, karma is not action. Action would be pravarthana. Karma means work. Even chintana is also a karma. This does not mean you do it for others or for yourself. You do it for dharma as in righteousness

[@kanshiraam]

Jnana and karma are different since former is dependent on the object of knowledge and karma is dependent on the agent. Read the commentary of Shri Shankaracharya on the Brahma sutra 1.1.4.

[@RajeshSingh-hx2sc]

Let me give the answer. But before that Love to Swamiji !!!! When you have to burn "something", you have to set it on fire. For that you need a "fuel". That "something" are vasanas. That "fuel" is knowledge (be it vedantic or of any philosophy or of any religion) But what when all vasanas are burnt? Do you still need knowledge? Trust me no. If you keep the knowledge, it takes form of vasana!!! Now that might sound weird. But reality is weird. Any unnecessary though is vasana!!!! Unnecessary knowledge is also vasana!!! We forget that with fire, firewood also become ash. It can no more used for fire. But we dont do that with knowledge, we keep chewing it in mind. To be precise, once all vasanas, anger, lust, greed or to generalize, uncontrolled thoughts are ensured to be vanished, we should stop thinking of knowledge. Meaning we should be thoughtless!!!! Even void of thought "I am this body", "I am Mr. Ms. abc", forget about what any branch of knowledge say about anything. That is what is called as "PURE" consciousness. Purity has no place for any knowledge or anything else, it exist alone by itself. And that is the final state!!! Thoughtless, pure awareness, pure silence, As swamijy said "I am that **aadi shanta**" at 14:53. As it precedes and follows the prime sacred syllable OM: om SHANTI SHANTI SHANTI. Note that without silence even om cannot exist. Pierce the OM go to its origin and you will find there is only silence!!!: silence silence silence a u m silence silence silence a u m silence silence silence That silence is turiya, thoughtlessness, and conviction that silence is I am, fully self sufficient, which can only be realized by itself, meaning only by becoming thoughtless / silent / pure consciousness. Once all thoughts gone, what will shine forth can only be pure consciousness!!! No extra effort will be needed. Just be in that state for more and more time, and you will realize that consiousness doesnt need anything, its self sifficient and it is you!!! Finally, love and pranam to all gurus like swamiji.

[@dronereaper7]

In all sincerity I ask , how does one get into that state?

[@emgece2302]

What you say about knowledge is not wierd at all. After all, this is what Sankara means when he says "nahi nahi rakshati dukriN karane"

@@dronereaper7 by practising purity in thought word n action,divinising every waking moment with goodness..being kind, generous, compassionate.. towards all. Following karma yoga,bhakti yoga reading abt saints n sages.. Listening to vedanta..will get you there.lt may all take time but who is in a hurry just enjoy being alive n grateful for everything in yr life. Believe me it really works if the yearning for God is present..

[@MrMaitland79]

If we are all one and the same God and God made all this by mistake by becoming many why is it that when Buddha became enlighten or when the first saw the mistake why didn't the game end why does God keep pumping out more souls. What I don't get is why does the dream keep going why not end it.

But swamiji this is not being in line. Once there is the breakthrough, the realisation of Self then where is the question of mind? Why have i to run behind it even after realisation of truth?
