Readings from The Imitation of Christ | Swami Sarvapriyananda

[@Михаил-д6х1з]

I am Russian and my religion was supposed to be Orthodox Christianity. I started wondering what was the meaning of life when I was 14. Then I had a spiritual experience, when I felt one with the world, I just prayed and felt love and forgiveness and compassion towards all living beings. I tried to explain this experience, I studied all the major religions. I found the best explanation in Hinduism. Our prominent writer, Lev Tolstoy, said that "either there is no God, or everything is God". I cannot agree more.

[@dougietabla5948]

In the few words that you have spoken, I see the Divine light shining forth from you.

[@MrTennispie]

That’s amazing!!!💗

[@sumitdutta7043]

Wow! I think you know that Leo Tolstoy was very much inspired by Swami Vivekananda. Both never met though. I think Raja Yoga was the book which inspired him first then obviously the whole Ramkrishna-Vivekananda-Hinduism etc.

[@sonalrb10]

Amazing! Lev Tolstoy wrote the book "What shall we do then" I read Gujarati translation, it's like having a constant watchdog inside heart auditing behaviour! Truth is so universal.

Ich schreibe aus Deutschland. Advaita Vedanta begleitet mich schon viele Jahre. Aber durch deine Lektionen wird es auch lebendig und transparent. Das tut sehr gut und motiviert mich - auch wenn ich " Durststrecken habe - nicht zurück zu schauen. Ich gehe weiter. " Nachfolge Christi " kenne ich seit meiner Jugend. Ein zuverlässiger Begleiter. Vielen Dank Swamiji 🙏

[@KarenGray-z5n]

Vedanta has always been with the thought that many paths lead to one God realization. Ramakrishna himself worshipped as a Christian and it only served to expand his worship. Sarvapriyananda easily crosswalks Buddhism and Christianity with Vedanta. Universal consciousness not owned by any one religion. I think it’s beautiful.

‘Favor’ to God ??? That’s an arrogance of a puny mind. What capacity does a human have to do a ‘favor’ to God!!! It is by the blessings of the Divine that limited human beings are able to write the glories of God. Only in whom the ego is dead, does God make him/her the instrument for Divine work.

I saw this book on the shelf of a book shop in Seoul, Korea. As a Buddhist, reading up on this text and the point of its teaching seems, so far, to align with a path similar to my own. It's about goodness, compassion, a turning away from the prison of material and societal life. Meditation and introspection: The Way.

Oh yes please. Plotinus would also be great

[@krisc3371]

@@davlmt I can understand since the “mystics’’ of the Abrahamic religions mostly derive from was neo-platonism to substantiate their theology and gaps in their metaphysics, and twist it to their needs. However to keep things comprehendible for the public for actual transformation to happen; Eckhart’s views are closer to Advaita Vedanta imo than Plotinus teachings which are very tough and subtle in terms of theology. Through Ammonius Saccas, Plotinus may have been influenced by Indian thought. The similarities between Neoplatonism and Indian philosophy, particularly (Samkhya), have led several authors to suggest an Indian influence in its founding, particularly on Ammonius Saccas. His student Porphyry wrote; On the Life of Plotinus and the Order of His Books, Ch. 3 "he became eager to make acquaintance with the Persian philosophical discipline and that prevailing among the Indians"

If all humans had started to become ideal , and made a quest for mokksha, by some strange leap of faith, would we have had any kind of civilization? I mean, does thinking one pointedly only of Who Am I, let us achieve anything in secular life? It that not thought to be worthwhile in vedantic view?

[@sumitdutta7043]

@@ByHerGrace22 So you are assuming that all will go out looking for Who Am I?. This assumption holds no value as it never happens only a handful of sociely go for that goal, since the eligibility criteria is very high, so don't worry about that. Maximum don't even have the ability to do that kind of Tapasya. Majority of the society always is and will be into 'lust and money' Slowly people progress. Also you are separating secular life with spiritual life, what Swami Vivekananda wanted was to divinize the secular life. Most of the advancement in humanity happened because of thinkers etc, in there calm state of mind.

[@ByHerGrace22]

Thank you Mr Dutta for sharing your opinion. I really don't want to get into long argumentative discussions This thought arose when I personally try to follow, in a very limited way, what Vedanta says, that is to think of God, chant our mantra every waking minute. I find I cannot do much constructive thinking on my secular jobs, or even think in a creative way. Perhaps I am wrong, but I feel I am limiting the faculties God has given me as a human being. And again , the great men who have taken civilization forward, did not overtly do meditation, or repeat God's name, as such. Perhaps they were gifted with the quality of "sthita pragya" due to good deeds in some birth. I don't know. But as a normal human being, I feel many of my potential might be unrealized in the quest for the Divine. Of course vedanta would say it is all Maya. Then why does God give special gifts to some of his children, if they are only born to repeat His name? I wish Swami SPNji would answer some of our questions. Then we would not need to argue 😞

[@sumitdutta7043]

​​@@ByHerGrace22Swami Sarvapriyananda don't even watch the comment section nor does his team. So you won't get any answer from him. Ask this via mail (of Vedanta Society New York).

Who will be judged on the day of judgement? The field or the knower of the field?

[@sumitdutta7043]

No one will be judging😅

[@AdvaiticOneness1]

This is why mainstream Christianity is dying.

[@imaginaryuniverse632]

I would say there's a great many streams of Christianity. I believe the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ to St John says plainly, though cryptically as an allegory, that judgement day, Day of atonements, is when we learn that there is no one to judge other than the self. The Revelation begins when John is in the spirit on the Lord's day which means focused on the breath, imo, asking who am I. God said, Be still and know that I am the Lord thy God. Rev. 1-5 Jesus Christ is the faithful witness and the first begotten of the dead. The faithful witness is the knower of the field and the dead is the person we appear to be but aren't. It's the same story as Jacob in the land of Pineal, Noah's arc, Joshua bringing down the walls of Jericho. Pineal means face of God, Noah means peace and Jericho means chaos and the people of Jericho represent the chaotic ideas in our minds which don't know the reason for the golden rule. Corinthians says Faith without reason is faith in vain which means for our own purpose or against the golden rule. There is only one place to find reason and that place is within. We don't need to go within because that's where we view the world as the land of Pineal. Before wrestling with the angel Jacob sent his worldly possessions and obsessions across the Jabbock River which means to empty and yada yada yada it was revealed to him that he was the face of God which he acknowledged when he confessed to the angel I am Jacob. I am is the Lord thy God and the faithful witness of all the dead as the Life of their body. Jesus said the father is in me and I am in you. God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son who taught us to pray the Our Father. God said, Judge not lest ye be judged. It's confusing because we believe we are our thoughts and that we can ask ourselves a question and we believe it is our self that answers. The mystery is how do the answers come and how did they get to the place they are kept sometimes called the Akasha. It's an eternal mystery because the mother of creation is unknowable like a virgin. I think Genesis would probably be more accurate as reading, In the beginning God said Let there be light and then said Holy Ghost where did that come from! 🙏

[@gomtiwad2345]

Surely..do you still be in judgement day? God is so petty that he will judge his children?

[@imaginaryuniverse632]

@@gomtiwad2345 The word judgement says judge the mind. I believe our minds are judged at the time of judgement which should not at all be seen like a sentencing of the convicted but rather an evolution of understanding. Who will judge the mind other than the knower of the mind? Who would know the mind at some supposed future time other than the one that knows the mind today? What is judgement other than the answer to a question? Who would question the mind? Who would know the answer to the question? It may be that judgement day is just when we choose to question the mind rather than follow it blindly. 🙏

Swami Sarvapriyananda is non-vegetarian too. Swami Vivekananda was non-vegetarina too. Shri Ramkrishna was non-vegetarian too. Lord Budda was non-vegetarian while he was king, he died eating pork because of indigestion. Our great Sages were non-vegetarians. Krishna was non-vegetarina, Pandawas were non-vegetarian. All the Great monks of Shakta Sampradayas were/are non-vegetarian. Tibetran Monks are Non-Vegetarian. brahmins from KAshmir region are non-vegetarin so definitely great sages from such regions are also non-vegetarian. Jus I and You fools are vegetarians.

True, the ultimate aim of both Christianity and islam is global domination. Conversions are tribalistic ideas, it doesn't have anything to do with Spirituality! It should be called out! These types of conversions are affecting Hinduism very badly, Conversion teaches people to forget about their roots and replace it with a new identity which is fueled by misinformations about the indigenous traditions and cultures. This is un acceptable! Only Hindus can save hindus. The Abrahamic religions have wiped out many indegineous civilizations and cultures with this tribalistic attitude.
