You Are The Vast - भूमानन्द | Swami Sarvapriyananda
"I am eternal, I am pure, I am ever-free, I am formless, and I am immutable. I am vast and bliss I am, immutable I am. I am." Inspired by this verse from Sankaracharya's Brahma Jnanavali Mala (Verse 3), Swami Sarvapriyananda speaks on on the limitless nature of Self.

4:09 Chandogya Upanishad 6:00 Vast - Swami Vivekananda and Naag Mahashay 7:10 Zen Poem 8:30 What is the vast - Brahman - Bhooma - Anantam? Desha, Kaala, Vastu 12:30 Sarvapyaabi - Present Everywhere 13:30 Rabindranath Tagore Poem on Leaf falling and death of everything. Nityam - Eternal 15:00 object limitation, law of identity Advaita - Non dual 19:50 Swami Ramdas's story 21:00 You the conscience is the vast. Chaitanya - Consciousness - Awareness 23:00 Consciousness + Object = Experience 24:30 Christopher Koch - Neuroscientist - Book - Feeling of Life 25:00 Google Assistant is self aware, sentient? Behaviour is not guarantee of awareness. 27:10 problem of other minds 29:00 Deep sleep - Mind was not there, consciousness was there. Deep sleep is not absence of experience. it is experience of absence 30:50 panchadashi by vidyaranya: timeless nature of consciousness Nityam - eternal 33:00 by its light everything is lit up My consciousness? My soul? My atma? 34:00 God created consciousness? 35:50 Dr. Anil Seth, Neuroscientist at Cambridge You don't have to be intelligent to suffer. You need to be conscious to suffer. 36:33 God may have created everything. But consciousness was not created. In fact the creation and destruction of anything is 'testified to' by consciousness. Appearance and disappearance, presence and absence - they all 'depend on' consciousness. Consciousness is the basis on which desha kaala vastu appear. 37:15 consciousness is above god. Human> Sentient Beings > God, Saguna Brahman, Ishwar, Bhagwan > Consciousness Consciousness + Power of Maya = Ishwar Consciousness + Avidya, Fraction of Power of Maya = Individuals like us 38:00 Universe, human, evolution, mind came first and consciousness next? How can physical process, material process generate first person experience? - Hard problem of Consciousness 41:10 Story of cardiologist who retired and started studying natural medicine. Correlation : Modern Medicine :: Causality : Natural Medicine 42:20 Tibetan Lama: 'Matter produces consciousness.' generates two problems. Prove that matter exists apart from consciousness. - Problem of idealism in Philosophy - Referred to as 'standing scandal of philosophy' by Emmanuel Kant We are so sure materialism is right. But we can't even prove the existence of matter. 43:00 Bill Conrad - Trained Physician - Experiment to prove matter existed before consciousness Swamiji's reply to that. 44:00 At which point did you step out of your awareness? 44:15 Materialist Objection against subjective idealism : Are denying its existence because you are not aware of it? - Brainless philosophy 45:15 You are confusing consciousness and knowledge. Chaitanya and Gyana. Consciousness + Mind + Sense organs = Knowledge Awareness and Knowledge Some of awareness is known. Some of awareness is unknown. But both known and unknown are in your awareness. 47:22 Keno Upanishad - That which is other than the known and the unknown. You the knower. 48:20 Master Vidyaranya - Add sugar to anything to make it sweet. But to make sugar sweet? Swa prakasha - Self luminous 49:50 - Joke on need to be Deaf - Story of Kitchen of the monastery 51:50 Existence (of time, space, object) depends on consciousness. 54:40 Prof. Arindham Chakraborty - The idea of object is that which objects to my consciousness. CONCLUSION 55:00 Chit is Nityam Sarvavyapi Advaita. Consciousness is eternal, all pervasive, non dual. 56:50 - Happiness is a feeling in the mind? It comes and goes? 59:10 St. Teresa of Avila - sad nun is a bad nun. 1:01:00 shloka

This was really a great enlightening talk by swamiji...there is only one limitless infinite non dual existence consciousness bliss..the duality is just an appearance...and most importantly we can arrive at this realization by our own reasoning and self inquiry!!! Simply blown away
Jai Ram !
It is such a blessing. You are there. I am here. Still no here and there. Your words are shining in my light.
Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithya. Jeevo Brahmaiva Naa paraha Living beings are the flowerings of Jagat. Can life be infinite, if Jagat is unreal?
हरी: ऊॅं तत्सत् 🙏🏻 श्रीरामकृष्णार्पणमस्तु 🙏🏻 नमस्कार स्वामी सर्वप्रियानंदजी महाराज🙏🏻 Thank you Vedanta society New York for sharing this 🌹
All lives are Unique without Duplicates. So, Purushas are not Advait but Infinite. Old Saankhya Darshan is proven right. Maayavad Vedanta should be laid to rest.
Such a gift in your last words... "Relax. It's alright. You are the vast." Thanks Swami. Have a great summer!
People, listen intently - these are truths beyond your wildest aspirations - a offering to peace and certainty. What a privilege. I bow.
Great video, guys! ❤ The friendliness of the people is wonderful and so unlike what we’re told about China! And I found the tea ceremony quite moving 🥰 Thank you for this video 🙏
What a vibe living while this cool Dude walks the Earth. Thank you Swami - your message is changing my life Brother.

Pujya swamiji ! Pranaam ! Many people ask you many questions and you always respond very calmly, we learn a lot from certain questions-answers. As a curious student of Vedanta, I am learning and one question always occurs in my mind that how a seeker use this knowledge in his day-to-day life particularly during challenging situations like unexpected behaviours from the close relatives resulting in financial losses, mental shocks as to how he/she can behave like this without any fault of mine ! It is intriguing to learn from the scriptures to maintain peace of the mind even during toughest situations ! Your lectures help me a lot. Pranaam !
We're the vast we're the space
Swamiji is amazing Forever indebted and grateful 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 How beautiful he explained the verse of Astavakra, We (from a blade of grass to humans) who thinks itself as a limited sentient being is none other than the Vast infinite easeness ocean of Awareness is which the entire universal manifestation plays around like a boat. Creation (bigbang or by the means hyperdimentional membrane theory which string theories says). Dissolution (everything getting contracted into a black hole). Our ever repeating experiencial cycle of birth, death, rebirth is just an appearance in us the infinite. Pure consciousness can exist independently but if the reflected consciousness (the sentient being) says I'm the infinite Brahman than that's absolutely perfect becoz the appearance cannot exists without the real & the reflected consciousness is false, its Brahman all along the one dimensional reality which gives existence to this entire play of causality & we are that infinite, ever the witness and never the witnessed helplessly Choicelessly So. It's time to calm ur Neurons.

Why helplessly? Proclaim unto yourself that you are that!! And, YOU ARE THAT...You have always a choice to remain limited if you choose so but deep down the seed of infinite in you which lies there silently will never let you be convinced that you are limited... Thus, we crave for freedom... Happiness... Peace!! We start playing... Close our eyes and enjoy... But imagine how long?? For our very nature... The seed of bliss which can never die... Was never born won't let that false notion to set in forever... Because we... All of us are THAT... INDEED WE ARE ONE in the truest sense... One!!

Thank you for this speech. You have confirmed a lot of my own meditation on this. Also a lifetime of study and useless education. I’m not sure if it’s funny or sad that our so-called modern intellectuals are so brainwashed and lost they couldn’t reason back to origins.

Thankyou Maharaj, such an enlightening discourse..... I feel revived again.
In a personified approach to God , you are an image of God so your attributes are His attribute.
Maharaj, your talks just make me cry!! Everytime I have tears pouring down my eyes!! I cannot describe with what emotion, but it seems a mix of everything and a longing to realize!! I have stumbled across your lectures at one of the darkest moments of my life and they have helped me sail through, and miraculously even the Universe seems to have given me the time to heal. Everything around me has slowed down allowing me to drudge on through these times. May the blessings of Thakur, Maa, and Swamiji be on all of us.
It does not matter whether you understand Swami Ji or not... You are surely mesmerized by the everlasting smile on Swami Ji's face. Pranam...

Bhooma is exactly like being what Pink Floyd calls "Comfortably Numb" Your hands , legs and your whole body feels like balloons ... there is no body ..the inside and the outside become one ... and your sense of self completely dissolves ..

The Swami always succeeds in inspiring, but not always in enlightening. A clarification of what is a jeeva, and in what sense is it finally ब्रह्म, Brahman is critical to make this talk more than a mostly inspiring, but not enlightening words. One ends up with a WOW!, and definite, if passing elation, and also a frustrating, “so what”. More like a great artist, than a great master. I must’ve heard 50 of his lectures- clearly find him edifying- and maybe 150 of other advaitins. The popular teachers all follow the “infomercial” format. They promise a lot, paint the outcome is amazing words, festoon the “product offering” with fabulous promises, but don’t really ever make a promise that is clear and falsifiable (in a scientific sense). You cannot say, what exactly is the relationship between that which is losing ignorance (the chidaabhaasa), and the aatma-Brahma. Does the chidaabhaas cure itself of its ignorance?
Swami ji you are so inspiring! Love the way you convey such complex topics in such a simple way! I am practicing this concept through my music practice 🙏
