The Chinese also have a very vast connection to the divine, along with the Japanese civilizations as well. Before the world began fighting, these asian ancient civilisations practised peace and thought, they thrived to build stronger connections to the universe rather than meddle in politics and other vices. Also, the other one god religions are actually factions of religions born in the kaliyuga (the dark ages), meaning they can only bring you closer to the devil, they're scared of their gods as if their god would punish them with death. Islam for example, is a totally radical religion trying to impose their ideology like they have it all figured out, converting people to islam with swords and then calling it the fastest growing religion in the world, that itself process what a demonic ideology they carry and their trajectory is only that of destruction. They hate science. Also, the CERN facility in France (the atom collider), has a massive Shiva statue at the entrance, will you question them too?

If you observe carefully, the arguments presented by Abrahamic religion scholars always focuses on whether someone believes in their concept of God or not and how that would lead to good/evil outcomes for the society. Where as the arguments presented by Hindu scholars are always about philosophy, how humans think and how we can enhance our knowledge and thought process. They never talk about belief/ lack of belief in a specific God. There lies the difference.

The speaker did well to refer "Nasadiya Sukta". What does it say? It is a clear acknowledgement of the writer of Veda that he has no clue as to how the creation came into existence. He admits that he is not even certain whether there is someone who created it or all just happened on its own. He says the gods we worship, even they do not know, as they are later additions. So the moot point is whatever happened in the process , is known only to God if He is truly the creator. Whatever man contemplated through his intellect can only be an assumption. Men are diverse in their opinions therefore no one theory put by man can be the gospel truth. What if, God decides to reveal the whole process, its purpose and outcomes. What if God confirms His revelation through outstanding signs that are beyond human capabilities, to impress upon the people the validity of the source. Judaism and Christianity operates on this belief. If I have to choose between the philosophy of man and the revelation of God, I will choose the latter part.

We will improve not on western defination of success. Even though old India had best science,medicine, economy, sport, construction.

Sawami Sardinwakanda is a hindootv extremist though

Mr. Tripathi is brilliant! I have lived in USA for decades and did not know much but Mr. Tripathi. So beautifully explained! I am a practicing Hindu who tried to explore Christianity. But it became evident fairly quickly (3 or 4 trips to the Sunday sermon) that Christian faith was way too divisive. The sermons usually mentioned "beware of fake Gods". No respect for any other faith, fear of hell..etc. As all Hindu's do, I believe in reincarnation as well and I pray to God that if I must be born again please let me be a vegetarian Hindu where I can practice my faith exactly how I want with no judgment or fear of hell. West has borrowed our key teachings like Yoga and Meditation but have choosen to disassociate them as a Hindu practice. Shiva can never be taking out of Meditation and Patanjali can never be taking out of Yoga. The spread of Yoga and Meditation is not merely by accident but by their merit as they are time tested practices! Thank you Mr. Tripathi for explaining Sanata Dharma so beautifully!

You can live without a religion but not without a way of life and Hinduism is a way of life.

The last part of the speech is the most exhilarating. I always had a line of thought which ended in an endless loop of “if Big Bang created the universe, then what preceded the Big Bang, whatever created Big Bang, who created that thing “.

@@DC-rb3uz But why are u linking a social issue with "Hinduism"? If “caste discrimination” was linked to Hindu tradition and limited only to Hindu community then why Dalit Christians would have separate churches (since upper caste Christians don't allow them to enter in their Churches and even if they did allow them they would make sure that Dalits were made to sit or stand separately in a corner) or why Islam would have Ashraf (direct descendants of fair skinned Arabs) and Ajlafs (dark skinned converts to Islam)? and last I checked Pasmanda Muslims (low caste muslims) voted overwhelmingly for the BJP in UP for giving them political representation. Pasmandas amongst Muslims are OBCs (Ajlaf) and Dalits (Arjals), distinct from Ashrafs (upper castes like sheikhs, maliks, pathans, Sayeds) it is the reason why, Christians and Muslims are asking for SC/ST reservation status for their converted 'Dalits" which also means it is a social issue and nothing to do with Hindu tradition or any religion 2. Rigid birth based caste system (which did not allow social mobility) was created by Lord Risley or Herbert Hope Risley (a British agent) in the 19th century. He morphed ancient and flexible jathis (occupational groups which allowed social mobility) and 4 varnas (colors of character of a person shaped by past karma not birth family) and RE- classified people based on race science (nose size and head shape). The same race science was later used in Africa by Christian missionaries which led to Rwandan genocide and conversions. 3. Jathi and Varna ≠ Caste. The term jathi (often mistranslated as 'caste') is best understood in the sense of a set, as in mathematics or a genre in literature. It applies to non-human entities as well - for example, the jathi of trees, jati of rational numbers, jathi of verbs, and so on. In the human context, a nation is a jathi, a given religious group is a jathi, doctors/engineers are a jathi, men/women a jathi, gay people are a jathi, the military is a jathi, the employees of a given company are a jathi, etc. Similarly, the word 'varna' means 'color'. Varna also refers to the various personalities and qualities of people. An individual's varna is based on past karma (NOT BIRTH) which shapes gunas, the latter being individual qualities or tendencies. 4. So called "untouchability" was a consequence of rigid birth based caste system. Colonialists (esp East India company agents) created hundreds of fake hindu mutts to prevent "shudras" from entering hindu temples. It was done to make hindus self loathe their own tradition One cannot be a Brahmin or Vaishya or Shudra or Kshatriya by birth (Bhagavad Gita). In Bhagavad Gita - Chapter 4 Verse 13 Krishna talks about the 4 Varnas catur-varnyam maya srstam guna-karma-vibhagasah meaning a person's guna or mindset and his choice of work (action) are shaped by past karma (NOT birth) and they determine Varna (color of qualities) 5. Point is don’t confuse artificially created social stratifications and socio/economic imbalances by colonialists with the hindu/dharmic tradition built around the Vedic metaphysics Sankhya which can be validated by logic, double slit quantum experiment and embodied experience (direct knowledge through focus and meditation)

In Abrahamic faiths, worldview starts with GOD as an external entity who created world and gave a rulebook to follow. In Hindu Civilization, worldview starts with ENTITIES (aka padardha) seen by their Thattvas (aka qualities/natures) based on their functionalities and its influences thus classifying in the spectrum of Daivam (Godliness/Life supporting) and Rakshasam (Devilishness/Life Annhiliating), thus determining that entity as GOD or DEVIL in that given context.

As a hindu, I hav worldly goals but there is a parallel hunger to attain Nirvana, truth, samadhi. Self realisation is a goal, after which may be I wd be able to say with utmost humility, that I know it. And I will guide u as ur guru if I feel u r a worthy student. In day to day life, we hav to practice our dharma and karma which is duty and action. My dharma as a father, my dharma as a son, as a husband , as a friend etc I hav a task to be best father, son, husband, brother, citizen. This is essentially possible if I m hardworking and selfless. But selflessness is also a process, it has to grow untill I m beyond my own body and mind as well.

We hav so many examples already set as a guidance to know what is righteousness. But still if u want a definition, i will give u a definition. Any action done with an intention to attain selflessness is good. One might think that a student who is withdrawing himself from social activities, declining party invites, trip invites, is being selfish but from that student's point of view, he is avoiding short term pleasures and choosing hardwork. This might look like a selfish decision for people around him but from his angle, it is dharma. As a student , he must hav to learn to avoid short term pleasures in order to achieve success. But success for what? To help others. Whole life should be like a journey where u move from selfishness to selflessness. Nobody becomes selfless just by wanting to be one. It takes real courage, sacrifice. In our life time, we take up so many roles, we r student, son, brother, husband, father, uncle , friend, citizen ....in every role we hav a duty and responsibility towards someone's happiness. In order to fulfill our duties we hav to put others before us, thats when u realise the value of altruism. If u get it. There is no turning back. U will keep on serving more and more number of people. Thats when selflessness start expanding. Ur attachment tend to decrease and compassion takes its place. Ur detachment grows with ur selflessness. Ur ultimate seat is with the divine coz he resides inside you. If there is a god? He cant be selfish. Why? Becoz he has no want or desire for something as he is literally everything. So when u r reaching that purity and selflessness, u r seeing urself in everyone. U r becoming everything, u r becoming god. But not untill u hav even a slightest hint of 'I'ness or me'ness. To be god , is to be absolutely selfless, which is egolessness only. In ADVAITA, it is the non dual state. When u r one with everything, it will be impossible fr u to be selfish. Look at your body, its in ur experience that it is yours, can u be selfish towards either if ur kidneys , lungs? Can u be selfish towards your left hand and overstrain your right hand becoz ur left hand is more dear to you? If i ask u to donate one of ur ear, can u really make a decision abt which one to let go? When ur consciousness expands , anything inside it is you. Selfishness is the direct result and proof of ignorance, hence selflessness is directly linked to knowledge. If a sadhu or saint is accumulating wealth 🤑, he is not really a sadhu, he is just a man with great sense of purpose, he might be using all that wealth into something great but he himself is attached to that wealth and hence not free. He must be hoping to achieve the ultimate by that service. Which wd happen if his goals r clear. Basically then all his hardwork is to accumulate wealth for serving others. Thats a legit way to attain higher forms of selflessness. The other way is obviously renunciation, where u start with zero and suddenly hit a jackpot if u attain self realisation via some guru or knowledge or serious meditation. Such people mostly go for disciples. They do serve people but their main focus is to impart knowledge with worthy candidates. If this makes sense to u, its well and good. If not, then i m sorry. I m no saint , i m quite unfit to satisfy anybody's query. I hav mine own to solve first. 🙏

Maya is wrongly translated as an Illusion. Maya is not really an illusion in that sense. The right interpretation would be, that Maya is the engagement of the individual with Samsara that keeps him from realizing the divine. However, there is an interesting aspect to it. If the Engagement is Dharmic, then it becomes the path to the Divine realization. That is the essence of Dharmavyadha. Maya is that veil that keeps you from certain pursuits. Dharmic engagement will slowly reduce the effects of the Maya. You will realize the divine through the very engagement. The interpretation of Maya as an Illusion is from Bouddha interpretation. It was one of denial. I think that is not the right interpretation, this is what Ramanujacharya and Madvacharya who followed Shankara did. They extended the philosophy. To just give an Advaita interpretation and leave it there is not the right way to debate or discuss this. Bouddha philosophy of denial was a wrong turn, that was later fixed.

As it has a beginning and an end. Only after attaining moksha we become real. And moksha can be attained in this world of illusion and you don’t have to die. Enlighten itself is moksha. And there are steps or divine sense of awareness beyond moksha. I real can’t remember the names and can’t discuss much as that’s how tantrics work.

Agreed.... the definition he gave for illusion was non-eternal and without purpose, Maya as an energy/entity is eternal though its manifestation changes over period of time. Its created (more correctly revealed), destructed, its form changes over time, but it always exist. Coming to the purpose as rightly mentioned how something can be illusion when engagement with that entity in certain way leads to the path to divine realization, with this argument purpose can be clearly understood that it acts as a mean. The actual sense on which Maya is an illusion as it act as a curtain between an individual and the divine. This phenomenon act as an opaqueness and weakens the revelation of the divine, individual accepts Maya to be ultimate reality becoming unware that there is something beyond this.

@@amatyaucran2214 Well then a fundamental definition of a god would have nothing to do with love, or justice. The idea is more to do with what is claimed than what is logical or true; a kind of map of possible features the idea of god can have. If there is a good God then conversely there can be an evil God, and if there is a 'just' God then there can be an 'unjust' God. These would be features in a "feature space" on which the various ideas about the nature of God or gods can be plotted. If there are common features, or a common feature to the idea of a god then that would be interesting. It would also be interesting if there were no common features. After that, then it would be a much easier task to refute or support the logic of any combination of features such as you expressed in your reply. It may be that there is a combination of features that are non-contradictory and thus represent a viable concept of God or gods. It may be that there are no viable concepts of God or gods, and it may also be that there is at least one set of features that represent a viable god concept, but that has not been expressed or represented at any time in history. This may constitute a new paradigm for what a god is or does that has never existed before in the minds of people. It just seems like an interesting idea for a project.

@@herbiewalkermusic It appears to me that when people use the word God, especially when capitalized they essentially mean something that does not need anything, but does everything, and it is usually conceptualized in some anthropomorphic form, but not always. I have found that things are more easily defined when the focus is not on what a thing is, which really tells you nothing about the thing except a name. I believe that an effective and clear definition points at what a thing does, or what its function is. From this perspective features are simply functions, and so now one can ask: What kind of thing does this kind of God or god do? What effect does this god have on the world? What function or purpose does this type of god serve? What role does he, her, or it play in the scheme of things? Other good questions are what does this god care about, and why, and what does god do about it? Can this God make mistakes or not (perfect or not)? Is God part of our universe or outside of it? Is God complex or simple? Big or small? Is God alone or are there other Gods? Does this God change or is he/she/it always the same (does it evolve)? etc... Ancient people did this kind of thing where they notice a feature of the world such as lightning and thunder, and give it anthropomorphic agency by conceptualizing a god person (a kind of king) that was responsible for those features in the world (Zeus, and Thor respectively).

Mr Tripathi presented a deep and vast topic with great easiness and conviction. Ending with hymns that summed up the topic extremely well. Throughly enjoyed it.

Most admirable speech!!!! Thank you.

I find myself coming back to it again and again. So wonderfully articulated. Holds the essence perfectly. My parents never forced religion on me. They continued practicing their rituals and belief and included me loosely. My father is a very devoted person and he was almost sure i am nastik/atheist. I developed spirituality on my own, found more interest and step by step entered. I still choose what to believe what to not, reason with it and pray whom to i resonate d most and want to. They probably don't even know whom i pray to. I feel extremely fortunate that i can do that without any bounds and therefore it is growing taking its own time.

Well I was proud that i born in this beautiful and amazing land we called "Bharat"and I am proud to say i am Born as a Hindu. Guys should come here to experience the fascinating country.

Wow nice explanantion!! Santan dharma gives lot of freedom of thought to everyone and also gives dharmic way of life. It respects evryone.

"facts as we know it today" - it's what science says with humility , and it's what Dharmic belief systems say with humility.

Brilliant. Feeling Goosebumps

thank you on behalf of India 🥰

Hinduism does not claim that we humans are ‘gods’. To put it a different way, it would be as if a wave on an ocean melds into the ocean, loses its personal identity, to realise its own true nature as being far greater than its limited conception. Then, their is no you nor any God. It then also realises the inherent interconnection between all waves or all creation. There is no other, onlyness, Kaivalya. In this respect God does not really exist and there is no need for it. What is prime is Self. Our terms are, the self and the overself or atma and param atma. You awaken to self, that’s why we talk of self realised masters and self realisation. With this in mind, yes, god is a delusion as it is a creation of beings living in a state of delusion. This explains why there are so many gods, and so many pick and choose options available for Hindus because who or what you pick and choose is ultimately irrelevant. It may be a useful tool for you to use or maybe a hindrance. That’s why there is no division in Hindus with regard to theists and atheists. Everyone is on their own journey and our job is simply to awaken to our own true nature through the yogic practices. Yoga itself can be classed as non-theistic because our search is ultimately solely for self and not for any god. It’s as if there were a hall in which most people are asleep in their own dreamscapes. But a few have their eyes open. No one is superior or inferior, everyone has their own time to open their eyes and finally come out of dream to awaken. This is core, Advaita Vedanta nondualism of acharya AdiShankara.

But simply saying God is delusion breaks the spine of Bhakti Yoga...... Self-realization can be achieved through several ways (Bhakti, Gyan, Karma and Raja Yoga). If you take a God's eye view of all 4 paths, what becomes obvious is that all 4 at the level of the reality of this worldly life are trying to bring the individual to a certain state of mind (or no mind as others would claim)......This in turn would have a psychological shift because again the Brain gets altered (especially the limbic system and so does the parietal lobe). So what we know for sure is these different paths are tools that are available to us (Humans) to reduce( and eventually eliminate) worldly suffering.... And it's needless to say that the struggle to end suffering fuels science and whatever developments we have.

@@TatTvamAsi173 Yes, good point, but one could say that the division into the concepts "God" and "me" simply represents the division that we feel when we are still caught in the web of thought. In that sense, we are still free to express this in poetic and artistic images of the "divine" - because we humans are great storytellers! (See my comment on the "Fall" and "good and evil")

I think you put it very well, and I expressed related ideas in my comment on the"Fall" and "good and evil".

Hinduism explained so beautifully. Thank you so much Tripathiji. This lecture will have a profound effect on the western tradition of religion and may even repair the tortured relationship between the Abrahamic God and science itself.

Absolute magic of an explanation 🌻

That's was a very good speech ❤❤ God bless us all🙏

Wonderfully Articulated! No doubt, the bestselling author of the country- has his facts, knowledge and speech, all in order. Amazing.

The atheist vs God is essentially a western debate. As Amish said - faith is not the central point, the belief in the concept of cause and effect (Karma) is central to Hinduism. So even if you don’t believe God exists it is not a problem for us because as the Rig Veda Hymn pointed outed by Amish itself said ‘No one knows for sure’ . Btw it is a well known hymn in India.

@@arafatrasool83Brother Hinduism is not a bookish religion like yours. It’s a sea. Btw your whole religion is just a tiny part of one of the philosophies of Hinduism called ‘Nirgun’ . Go read about it.

Wah Tripathi Ji, pehli bar suna aapko and it was worth listening. These kinds of civilised debates should be held instead of shouting at each other or mocking others.

Hindus n Hinduism never attacked, invaded any community n country. Thats the essence of hinduism. Won some hearts through love n compassion.

Working on oneself and take oneself to realize the ultimate truth at experiential level is the core philosophy of Hindus or Santana Dharma. Heartfelt praises for Amit Tripathi ji. This philosophy needs to be glorified to the highest level. He has done it very well. Love and Respect from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦. 🙏🏽❤️💐

Love to listen each words of Amish Tripathi. He gain so much knowledge in spirituality and hinduism

Mr. Amish Tripathi just showcase the small drop the great ocean we have in our granthas, we have 4 Vedas, 18 Puranas, 200+ upnisad, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Sri Ram Charitra Manasa, Sri-mada-bhaagwad-gita, etc. learning and understanding any of them will fulfill you with lots of knowledge, wisdom and gratitude.... that's why we Hindus believe in 'Vasudhev Kutumbakam' that is entire world is our family because we respect the Aatma or Prana inside each of the human.....Namaste 🙏🏼

Yes in total agreement

Thanks Amish ❤❤ wonderfully explained and yes Nasadiya sukta in Rigveda 10.129 is indeed a very beautiful and deep sukta in the entirety of human philosophies ❤❤❤

The guy who asked the question understood nothing of what was spoken thus far. God is not a person or an object in Hinduism for it to exist or not to exist!!

Listening to Amish and utilizing my personal understanding of "God", I would say: 1. God is a force of infinite dimensions, that we try to perceive with our senses in 3 dimensions. 2. Each one can perceive a small portion of this infinity. There can be infinite ways to perceive/reach/realize God 3. Though we may only perceive a small portion of "God", this perception gives us a taste of what God is. Words are often not sufficient to describe this experience. Many saints in the Hindu school of Thought have attempted to express these experiences. The gist of these experiences is that God is within.

Beautifully put for modern society to understand 🎉
