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.

My father, Late Syam Sundar Chaudhury was a Sanskrit Pandit of 1950's. When I was 14 he would chant all these verses of Uponishads to me and would try to explain God as it is, as Uddalok to Shewtaketu. I was never interested but he would try. After a journey of 60 years of life now I feel how a father should be. After hearing Swami Swarbapriyanandji I recall him and recall one thing that my father did not attain the highest but achieved one thing in his life, he achieved to be free from Krodha and Dwesa (anger and jealousy). So it will take birth after birth to attain the highest and he will try to teach his son in every life. My father was my spiritual Guru in real sense but I could not recognise.

Beautiful... experience AND freedom in simply being.

When the zen master asks you if you have awakened and you think you have and say "yes" and then he slaps you, you know directly what Maya is and even feels like in space/time. Maya is just a doorway. Fall all the way through. Great explanation Swamij i!!!

True gems are here in this channel. Thank you so much Swami and thank you all the listeners. It's reall Very sad thing that this kind of channel is not having 1 cr subscription. Imagine what kind of content people of India are going through

[RobZonneveld]

It’s a very meaningful question, to become truly free you have to let go the path which brought you to this realization! It’s all a play of the mind. ❤

न चैकं तदन्यद् द्वितीयं कुतः स्यात्
न केवलत्वं न चाकेवलत्वम् ।
न शून्यं न चाशून्यमद्वैतकत्वात्
कथं सर्ववेदान्तसिद्धं ब्रवीमि ॥

Swami's lectures are wisdom personified. Blessed are we, to listen to such great disclosures.

He's saying what feels bad is not your self, it's just the body-mind complex. You are Brahma, pure consciousness.
