List of questions with timestamps: 02:03 - Is the awakening of the Kundalini and the recognition of our real nature as the spirit the same as Aparokshanubhuti? 11:08 - If you are already Brahman, what is the purpose of a appearing as a sentient being and finding Brahman? 18:35 - How do I know that this awareness that I am is the infinite? 29:00 - [Part 1] How do we have duality in experience when reality is non-dual? 37:54 - [Part 2] If Brahman is neutral, why does Brahman manifest? 47:28 - If Brahman cannot be experienced as an object, what kind of experience is there in Nirvikalpa Samadhi? 55:45 - Why do we believe there is one awareness and not many awarenesses?

Someone ask everything is a only awareness then why this bodymind and world and then swamiji told that's a Maya of awareness or Maya in awareness but I guess many more still can't recognize it So this is a final explanation of it please read And someone in touched with Swamiji please send this to him You have eyes but nothings have to see , you have ears but nothings have to hear , you have nose but nothings have to smell , you have skin but nothings have to feel , you have test but nothings have to eat or testing , you have mind but nothings have to thinking or working , you have legs but no space for use it , you have hands but nothings have to lift or work It is also apply for the awareness You have awareness but nothings have to use it So because of the bodymind and world you can feel or use the awareness for it functions Or because of the awareness you can feel or use bodymind and world And that's called non duality One things is present because of the other things is present but without one there is no other things And that's one is non other then The Awareness

Enlightenment not for Braman. it's for Jeeva. When I understand I am brahman it's in my mind. it's impermanent. It's a thought. when I fall asleep I forgot that thought with out body with out mind how is aham bramma asmy possible forever. bramman have not a memory is its puer chith. then how muthi possible forever.

Swami Sarvapriyanand’s explanation is so amazing! He explains like, we audiences are students and he is our professor. He gives such an examples so mind is no left with any doubts! So powerful teaching, amazing knowledge and best Techniques to clear mind!

the question and answer at 37:54 is exactly what i needed. advaita is a beautiful journey that teaches you to distrust your perceived reality, but then once understood, you come back to trusting and loving your reality in joy. thank you swami, and thank you to those who upload these videos and provide excellent titles, time stamps, and resources. i am eternally grateful ❤️

Unknowingly, I came across with first video of swami sarvpriyanada, the very first video was who am I -IIT kanpur 2 parts. Till now it's the best ,top most wisdom where it really separate soul from all objects. Do see that, if not yet.

Such an enlightened master!!!!

😇 Perfect answers to questions we all have! Thank you Swami-ji. What is amazing is that we can listen to the same explanation over & over again for many years but our understanding is a Spiritual journey that takes time & effort. We experience some progress, then some lapses. More effort in trying to understand, 'I am Sat, Cit, Ananda'. Almost there! Then like in a game of snakes & ladders we find ourselves back to SQUARE ONE! Then one day, suddenly, almost without effort there is clarity! Will this clarity diminish or disappear? One can only hope that ignorance has been totally removed by the GURU!

Swamiji is great 😀🙏😊

What a powerful session, मज़ा आ गया । It is so funny the Swami mentioned the Shankaracharya of Puri math. I watch and listen to only these two sadhus, बाक़ी में दम नहीं है । He also breathes fire like this swami. He talks in Hindi so a good resource for हिंदी भाषा भाषी । His every answer is quoted from a scripture, it is incredible. He sometimes also talks about hiring Indra as his door keeper, that is a true non-dual vedanti. :) Jai sriramakrishna.

I am an ardent follower, of swamiji, who is so very lucid in the examples and answers. This question swamiji, is completely different. While watching the Ashtami Pooja at Belur math, i witnessed the Kumari puja and then read all about it. Could not accept or come to terms with such a ritual, and was surprised that swami Vivekananda started the tradition. How does Advaitha Vedanta explain this?

Jai Sri Ramakrishna 🌺🙏

🙏🙏🙏 Guruji

Dear Swamiji, thank you for your answers. For 2nd and 3rd question, it's a cyclic universe. It manifests and goes back to potential. When it goes back to potential, the samsara exists in a seed state waiting to spring back into a manifestation. This answers "why" part of the question. This process is explained by swami vivekananda in great detail.

@rsr9200

I found Swami Saravpriyananda's answers to both those questions logically sound. The explanation you are proposing as an alternative begs the question "why is it a cyclic universe?" i.e., what is the cause of its cyclic nature?

@@rsr9200 As per cosmology in Sanathana Dharma, the samsara goes through the process of creation, expansion, recession and finally dissolution. Samsara here includes both the material and non-material world's. The material universe manifested is the effect for which the cause is the sum total of all jiva's karmas, samskaras. The material universe solely exists for experience of the jiva's past karmas. Lesser the samskara's, lesser do we "experience" the world and it's effects. The expansion is directly proportional to the sum total of ignorance in the world. When it reaches a point where there is no possibility of a single Jiva to be liberated, universe recession begins and ends with a dissolution where all material, mental forces go back to potential. This is called as the night of Brahma. After a night of Brahma, this potential strikes on what is known as "aaksha" to create the non-material universe first and the the material universe. This cycle continues infinitely until each and every Jiva is free.

@@sharauro As a practicing Advaitin, I have no problems accepting the cosmology you describe from the empirical level of reality we experience. However, the outstanding question which remains unaddressed with this cosmology is "What is the cause of the very first cycle?". This is not a new question since this has been raised and discussed in various Advaitic texts and the answers that Swami Sarvapriyananda provided address this question logically, but from the perspective of absolute reality.

Today is ekadashi - the 11th day of the lunar fortnight. It is a good day to worship and have joy in Shree Narayan = Bhagwan Vishnu = Shree Ram = Shree Krishna = Shree Ramakrishna. Shree Ramakrishna is the closest to us. He won't even have to snap his fingers to give us full liberation and all the knowledge. He is incredibly powerful. In fact a suitable aarti for Sri Ramakrishna is "Om jai jagadish hare". You see, the cult leader never understood, or had faith in Sri Ramakrishna, so he started with a shiva aarti, om jai shiv omkara, and later wrote the current non-dual mumbo-jambo one that makes one all asleep. Jai Sri Ramakrishna.

So far i have understood that everything is chetan , the bramh.. which is advait , that means there is no other thing in universe then the one bramh .. everything else is superimposed on it, nothing is real like in dream , ... my confusion is... from where did the maya ( superimposed world ) come , the panch tatvas , along side keeping in mind that no vikaar(change ) can happen in bramh...

@pranavsivakumar5338

Answering in case this helps: The Maya and the panch tattvas are also a manifestation of Brahman itself. In our everyday world, everything happens because of causality. The effect is produced because of a cause, the table (effect) exists because of the wood (cause) but however in the case of Brahman if everything is one, i.e. (if the table is no different from the wood), the cause and the effect are one - which means that there is no effect and no cause, only being/presence* (the wood only is, in this case) Coming to the question, if you ask how Maya has come about, that is simply to where why is there causality? Why is there a why? Brahman exceeds or is beyond causality, it is not bound by questions and answers or cause and effect, therefore, it is not something that is reasonable to find, simply the trick of a mind that views the world through the lens of cause and effect, that wants to know the answer. The truth is, it is the manifestation is an illusion, Brahman is all there is. Hope this helps :)

All separation is based on images. There are images about myself, about the universe and about God. Image, concept, idea, reprsentation, is not the thing itself. There is no division between the form and the non-form.There is no division in the appearances - trees, birds, humans. I evaluate each one of them, using knowlwdge, which is always incomplete. Based on these evaluations, measurementes, I imaginarily separate the indivisible. "Maya" means "to measure, to evaluate". When I confound the evaluation for the thing itself, I am living in illusion.
