ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions.
ABOUT US
Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.

I respect that the Swami does not feign holiness and act with pretension. I respect his humility and generosity in sharing the wisdom that he has come to know and has learned from the feet of the Great Ones.

I love this guy and listen to his lectures all the time. He has not had the direct experience say Osho, Eckart, and all the rest did. Among other things, it slows one’s speech…. Translating the ineffable comes off to some as “holy”.. judge mental monkeys we can be…
Even though I am not an enlightened one, I can consider myself fortunate and blessed just to hear Swami Sarvapriyananda's words and understand them. Gratitude to Swamiji for illuminating my mind with the sun of Advaita Vedanda.

Swamiji, I can not express how thankful I am that I can listen to these talks by you. You have such humbleness and such a beautiful way of speaking, it instantly puts the mind at ease. I wish I could listen to you in person. Thank you.

Rightly said, "The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material." We are that - we just need to scrape off our false ego built conditioning...

True, but the image of scraping hard marble is not the appropriate one. If we exert effort to eliminate the ego, it simply becomes stronger. Only deep effortless rest can transcend either thinking or ego. This is my experience and that of my many meditation clients. Effort will always backfire.
After enlightenment, you do the best you can to help the ones around you.

This longing to help others fades away after a few days because it becomes unnecessary to do so... there is no point in doing so whilst that realization sets in soon after your light bulb has switched on...
It was a really great experience to meet *Rev. Swami Gautamanandaji Maharaj* (Vice President Ramakrishna Math) during their visit to Ramakrishna Math Pune and also many great Swami's of Ramakrishna mission.

Swami ji I barely understand what you say but my son, kind of makes sense of your sessions. He listens to you diligently . We have never been a disciple of RK mission but my son is visiting RK mission regularly. He tells me, he'll become a brahmachari, if your congregation accepts him.

Beautiful Guruji. Thank you.
Thanks for helping us
Brilliant, what a direct simple connect
we are all the infinite ocean but we just have to realise it via brahma gyan
He looked at the world and all the people and beings in it completely differently, as he realised theres only one consciousness. Like an infinity mirror. All different expressions of the one consciousness separating a part of itself from itself in order to experience itself. Afterwards, he would empower other people to realise themselves, helps people realise who they are and help foster a more conscious interconnected world.
Pranam Swami ji
Thank you 🙏🏻 💕

Beautiful explanation Swamiji 🙏 Thank you.
After enlightenment we become more aware about the nature of things and ourselves and basically we see what is behind the scenes as if looking at everything from a mountain summit, however, even after enlightenment some character qualities such as anger, frustration, disappointment, need for love will remain but not as powerful and plentiful as before the enlightenment phase.

Byron Katie has a "method" that helps frame or put our fears in to perspective giving us a way to manage them so to speak. As she puts it, we don't lose the thoughts... the thoughts lose us. Enlightenment is not very worldly practical! :)

Otherwise, Svamiji is very learned and I love to listen his words from time to time. Jay Sri Krsna, Param Brahman, Svayam Bhagavan! Pranam 🙏

It's not a mere dream.
Enjoy the moments with the required highest virtues in your life and leave the rest to almighty.The challenge is to retain the virtues required to realise the atman and there you are .pray for it and you may be blessed.
Everyone is enlightened most just not till their ends. Those that get there early stand out like magicians.
🙏💖
In fact it is better to keep What is Enlightenment as a secret. If someone explains what is Enlightenment... We don't want to accept the simple explanation about Enlightenment... though it is really very very simple.
@david203

But you did not explain why you think this should be a secret. My counter is the following argument: if knowledge is kept secret, then those who are ready for the knowledge will be denied it. That can't be good, just as it is not good for a small child to be denied the ability to read or calculate.

Yes, entertainment changes its meaning as we transform from individual to universal.
Nothing happens because you are free of the body and mind ......you are G.O.D Consciousness .....a free Spirit again .
As someone who is enlightened, I can say that the ego will never disappear on one’s own effort- it can only (in an instant) go away by grace- and in that moment Brahman knows Brahman and the jiva-jagat-Ishvara triad becomes extinct.
