I have been searching for God since I was a little girl. Took myself to church when I was old enough to go out by myself. After a lifetime of searching and not finding, I gave up and declared myself an atheist about 16 years ago. But here I am still searching and every time I see one of Swami Mukundananda's I see a ray of light. And this video and the one about meditating on God just may be the clincher for me! I feel so happy listening to Swami. So inspired. Thank you Swami!

[@human5408]

You yourself are God. 😊. Don't look for him in skies. You and him are 2 sides of a same coin.

[@myvoice233]

Tou are searching for God because God is already in your heart and He wants you to search for Him. You are not an atheist. You believe there is the Only and the One who has controle on everything. Study the Holy Quran. You will find answers for every question you have. May ALLAH guide you, ameen.

I come as a guest, a non-Hindu. You are truly a spiritual man of great understanding and humility. Thank you for your excellent presentation, it enhances my understanding of this religion.

[@rekhas8842]

There is only one God, our different understanding levels is the cause of us being divided into different religions,. God is very Merciful, He tries to give us all knowledge of Himself. It all depends on us, how much we want to know about God, it is how much attention we give to anything that will determine our progress & successes. So firstly we must have faith & learn to surrender to God through knowledge of Him., Gods Greatness is Such, we should never ever think we know enough about Him or His Grories. We must continuously preserve on the Spiritual Path.. Devotion to God must become a part of one's life.. God is Eternal & Very Powerful, We are not here to try & own God, we are here to Seek Him... Love & become devoted to Our Eternal Creator.

I have been dejected all my life hearing, that our God is resentful, revengeful, towards non believers, ....ordering wars to invade lands, ....child marriages.... Sex slaves Murdering apostates.... So on and on. But When l listened to you for a change, it was so scintific, divine, and soulful, like rain on a desert. Can't find words to thank you.

[@rock5989]

Most of the scriptures specially Abrahamic are manipulated to meet political agendas of warlords of that time. God always wants his message spread through peaceful means but warlord of medieval used religion as weapon and authority to invade other lands.

Such a beautiful commentary! I have no words to express my gratitude. I feel God within you. Your caring & loving expressions, your understanding, interpretation, and presentation of Vedas in plain simple language with examples to the common man is un-matched. I also, watch others like Sadhguru et el, But, I got answers to many of my questions watching your videos. Thank You, Swami. I wish, you expand your presence to schools and universities all over the world for the benefit of humanity!

I share about God and Jesus. John 4: 13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” John 7: 37 Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Jesus: John 14: 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me. Jesus: John 8: 29 And He who sent Me is with Me; He has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.” John 8: 12 Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”

Proud to be a Hindu Dharmi. Sanatana Dharma is the eternal religion and the Hindu scriptures have so much information about God, the afterlife, and spiritual practices. The spiritual practices in Hinduism such as yoga, meditation, chanting mantras, Murti worship give you such a strong connection with God.

I bless the days I came to hear the lectures given by her under the direction of Shri Maharaji. This teaching was one of my very favorite. It feels surrealistic to hear Swamiji teach it for the whole world to hear now on youtube. It fills me with joy knowing. Radhe Radhe! Jai Jai Shri Maharaji! ❤️🌸 🌸 🌺🌺🌸🌸❤️

[@sandhyadas6323]

Wonderful gems of knowledge and wisdom from Swamiji on God. God is bigger than the biggest, also smaller than the smallest. He is all pervading and also residing in one place. He is so far from us that no body can reach Him and also so close to us that there is not a hair's breath of difference between Him and us.He is harder than the hardest and also softer than the flower. He is watching and knowing everyone,everything and every moment .How strange it is !!!

I am an American Hindu living in Cambodia ,its so nice to hear Swami explain my Sanatan Dharma, A lot of people in the world today just think we have a hundred gods and so we are crazy for that. I have been hearing about how Buddhism is different than Hinduism and i think the difference is just peoples ignorance.

[@SarveshThakur.]

This is the best ever knowledge or words I ever came across about God, who revealed about himself through vedas, so amazing, and definitely beyond our comprehension, which defies logic and rational thinking, isn't that what Science also tells us that certain particles can be in two places at once, so who can doubt this how God can be present in many different places at once, so definitely very very convincing and best ever words I ever heard, Thanks to Swami Ji who brought this true knowledge to us, and for me particularly as I have been seeking this knowledge for a very long time and I was not getting any that made as much sense as this did.
