[@suzannahmontreal1051]

Dear Swamiji, what a tall order by Vivekananda to treat everybody like GOD itself (even ourself). I will keep that in my heart and mind. What a deep mystery...We ARE GOD. But this Lîlâ thing is doing a good job messing with our mind. I feel like a blind poodle in the world lol

[@rishijha4579]

Too Good! This is ocean of Wisdom!

[@Aatish_A_P]

Actually I Completely Agree With Respected Sir Swami Ji, But still I Feel that sinners cannot be condemned, but there is lot of other ways either to directly or indirectly catch the sinner's. Directly of course thru law and security. Indirectly is the belief that the sinner might go to hell. But the Best possiblity is that, maybe the sinner maybe inside feel very insecure because he is sinner and someday either today or tomorrow or later will be caught. Respected Sir Swami Ji Perfectly said we as a common man should not condemn. Maybe a small prayer that let there be peace in the world may little bit help the World that at least more and more people do not go on the wrong side as sinner's. So there might be at least be a Condition That at least Each One of us may die a natural aging death and not because of violence done by sinner's. I still feel that if we all together spread the message of peace directly or indirectly by prayers in our own mind's. At least most of us will die a natural aging death, not through a disaster like violence or natural calamities like flood, etc. Once again Great Thanks to Respected Sir Swami Ji For Guidance to liberate Both from good actions and bad actions and achieve liberation or moksh or salvation. Peace Peace Peace.

[@seemaburman5535]

Yes I also want to meet swamiji

[@muktacarita]

yes, in other words, we are God in quality but in quantity, we are not God, it is like the whole ocean being God, and we the individual soul a drop of the ocean.

[@HariOm-ri8hw]

Thank you swamiji

[@dancingnachos3634]

Dear Sir, your talks are very engaging. Thank you so much for bringing so much knowledge to us. God bless.

[@bablukumarghosh-9734]

Significant talk on ultimate knowledge

[@zsuzsaveges8151]

It is very difficult to follow these great teachings with ads in every 5 minutes. Probably this is an example of not disinterested action.

[@DayanandMishra08]

Wonderful expositions of difficult subject

[@milindm.19]

Swamiji , Pranam , What is the meaning of ''Work in the spirit of renunciation'' ?

[@rekharao1361]

could I get the mail ID to send a mail to Swamiji? Or what is the website? Thanks

[@rajan24848]

Thank you swami for the wonderful talk

[@shivaligoel9935]

does mind remains the same with each birth? (of course it will vary depending upon our desires at birth)?

[@AshokKumarSingh-zu2ud]

What about son of Got Kal having rule over lower three words and having law of karma as per Kabir in Anurag Sagar book.2 how to differentiate between prarabah situation and free will

[@shivamsbansal]

Is it consciousness that gets liberated or the mind or brain?

[@anitkm08]

You, the consciousness, get liberated from deep association with mind and body...

[@edzardpiltz6348]

Way too many commercials😔. Somehow I really doubt that vivekananda would have considered that as skillful action 😘

[@kiswahilikitukuzwe2547]

Is this your way of showing appreciation to this priceless knowledge? Maybe you should have enrolled at Harvard, MIT or Yale to acquire the knowledge instead of complaining. You have a choice, right?

[@beachboxrealty]

You tube puts the ads not Swami, subscribe to youtube and there are no ads.

[@Thevanomkode]

Pranamam, Swamiji. Thank you for this beautiful lecture on Vedanta, enlightened by the words of Swami Vivekananda Posted to "Indian Spirituality", facebook.com/groups/GoalofLife

[@prashant-ul2sn]

How much ads you want Yes

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

Swami ji, how can I contact you?

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

Thank you Swami ji..

[@rekharao1361]

Vivekananda Samiti sirs , this mail ID is not functional ...could you please let us know the present mail I'D? Thanks

[@umaelipeddi2432]

But

[@kaushikkodi7365]

Too much ads

[@ranjanmahapatra5121]

Swami ami apnar sishya hote cahi

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

If there is no birth and rebirth than what is prarabdha by birth?

[@harshitshukla7382]

Krishna Kumar from the standpoint of advaita, there is no concept of praradbha whatsoever. Birth and death and all sorts of karma accrue to body, not to the soul. The soul is ever free.

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

Then why the soul get bounded for our karma and body goes through birth an death?

[@harshitshukla7382]

Krishna Kumar As far as my understanding goes, ignorance of our real nature is real cause of karma. Soul is not bound by any law, and is never bound.

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

I agree. ..

[@Krishnamishra-mb9br]

Then how to know our real nature? How can we come out of ignorance?

[@AshokKumarSingh-zu2ud]

Is there a free will

[@radhakrishnanthiruvalla3534]

Yes 60 percent destiny and 40 free will

[@edzardpiltz6348]

No. Nobody there to have free will - only conciousness! And what could conciousness possibly want? 😘

[@seemaburman5535]

So many ads. Irritating

[@sonysahiba9547]

please give meaning of word VEDANTA .do not say collection of upnishads but just translate word VEDANTA IN ENGLISH. ALSO PLEASE TRANSLATE WORD PRANA , DO NOT SAY PRANA IS BUNDLE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF PRANAS.

[@jamieg103]

The amount of ads make this almost impossible to watch. Especially ironic given the subject matter. Unsubscribed.

[@empressah888]

Ads....👎👎👎

[@KannapiranArjunan-vm2rq]

OK WHY NOT you vedic guys stop preaching puranic vedas and mythology, instead of solving the problems facing the poor, downtrodden and social justice. If Vedas have so much scientific evidence why none of the Guys claiming so, could not get Nobel prize? Why those scientific knowledge has not been used instead of importing nuclear plants, fighter jets and other technology? Why Vedic knowledge was not used to alleviate poverty and farmers suicide?? Why the infrastructure and status of health, education and social justice in the Hindi belt are awefully bad when compared with Dravidian States? Why Rama never had a Vimana, inspite of Vedic Mahirishi Vashista as Advisor, but used chariot and a bridge across Sethu to travel to Sri Lanka? The Dravidian King Ravana had the Vimana and took away Sita in that Vimana to Sri Lanka. Why not vedic scholar or hindutva BJP pray to the almighty to give you guys wisdom to serve the Bharatvasi honestly without resorting to diversionary tactics and chaos everywhere?

[@vijeberal803]

Kannan Arjun u need 2 understand the difference between material and spiritual pursuits...they r not winning nobel (though winning a nobel is not the ultimate goal even in science) is like asking Tendulkar why dint u ever win an Olympic gold!! u r so confident of Science and Technology and Scientists right?? let me ask u a counter question...why couldnt an army of Nobel laureate Physicists stop the US to apply their knowledge to kill a million innocent civilians in Japan?? How many of them , after that himalayan tragedy, accepted their moral responsibility and left that path declaring that they did not want to be a part of this??? NOBODY... Instead, the Germans soon migrated to the US to make even a bigger bomb the Hydrogen bomb within the next 20yrs!!

[@ravicarnatic]

You are a bloody atheist with all the negativities imbibed by the tamil davidian culture. You are unqualified to comment in this noble doscussion

[@sachinautomatic]

Meyporul kural This Vedanta business is only for mere mortals, not for supermen like you. Just ignore it.

[@harshchaudhary5730]

Because they are objective problems and vedanta talks about subject not objects
