Non-Dual Awakening | Swami Sarvapriyananda

How does one go from an intellectual understanding of the ‘Self’ to a living realization? Through the aid of Vedantic Meditation, Swami Sarvapriyananda shares methods that can be used to reach this ultimate spiritual goal. This discourse is inspired from a verse from the Brihadharanyaka Upanishad (Mantra 4.4.12) as taught in the book, Pancadasi by Vidyaranya:
"If a man knows the Self as ‘I am this,’ then desiring what and for whose sake will he suffer in the wake of the body?"
Mantra 4.4.12:
आत्मानं चेद्विजानीयादयमस्मीति पूरुषः ।
किमिच्छन्कस्य कामाय शरीरमनुसंज्वरेत् ॥ १२

ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
ABOUT US
Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.

One of the finest speakers and interpreters of philosophy across the globe who takes you through an experience of enlightenment, every time he speaks. It does not matter whether one is believer or not. It does not matter whether one is interested or not. It does not matter whether one is into it or not. Just listen to what he says attentively and try to understand, the rest is a journey through self. This is one of his finest. Thank you Swamiji for taking us through this journey of illumination over and over again. We feel blessed and divine in your company.

So so beautiful, practical and loving. When the swami spoke about the practice being there when you need it, and also the idea of allowing things to come up as an opportunity to do your practice, how incredibly liberating and practical that is. No dogma, you can allow the practice to come or not. So beautiful, thank you so much for this teaching and for this beautiful resource.

[@kinginblack1120]

Incorrect. That would require dualism. If you "choose" one path, you gave up your creativity. The very ideal of choice is dualism.

[@jaimaraj4059]

I use this video as a study guide. Thank you swamiji

[@Lisa.Martin_AL]

Dear Swamiji your talks deliver the goods!! Yes this all points back to “I am the Awareness” which brings it forth. Every moment of experience then becomes a direct pointing to reality that we are. So much gratitude for you continued teaching. 🙏🙏

[@velayudhanmenon9575]

Thank you Swami. You make spirituality a logical choice and not an esoteric one. However, phrases like "the world is not real", create an uneasy discordance between our lived experience and what we are supposed to experience. Using an analogy from quantum field theory can help avoid this discordance. Matter at one level is made of particles. At another level it consists of waves. Both are true in their respective contexts. Similarly, this world is real at one level but not at another more fundamental level. Thank you.

[@katherinewilson1853]

I like this guy.

[@nilanjansmitra]

Surely the crowning jewel of all the talks. This answers the painful concern of how to 'live Practical Vedanta'. The talk leads to the path of a state of being, the Applied Vedanta. The explanation is a touchstone, to which we all have to come back time and again. Maharaj please accept my grateful Pranams May The Lord bestows His Grace upon one and all

I am a hindu raised in Middle East blessed to be born in the family following the NEWEST DENOMINATION of Sanatan Dharma. I too have found Islam's core(especially when I came to know about its Esoteric interpretation through Sufism) to be the most syncing with Our Vedanta. OM SHANTI!
