Progress of Reasoning:

1. The self is the reason for happiness.
2. Consciousness is linked to the observation of physical phenomena.
3. The self is the reason for the known and unknown aspects of reality.
4. All entities and phenomena are interconnected.
5. Both the dream state and wakeful state are considered illusory.
6. The dream state reveals the illusory nature of perceived reality.
7. The wakeful state is subject to the play of appearances and is illusory.
8. Examples highlight the transient and deceptive nature of perceived reality.
9. Neurophysiological differences and conscious experiences do not negate the illusory nature of both states.
10. Both the dream state and wakeful state are equally unreal, inviting exploration of the unchanging essence of awareness.

Please note that these bullet points are a condensed summary and may not capture all the nuances and depth of the reasoning provided.


Summary of Reasoning:

1. The self is the source of true and lasting happiness, independent of external circumstances.
2. Consciousness plays a fundamental role in the measurement and manifestation of physical phenomena.
3. Integrated Information Theory suggests that the self is the reason behind the known and unknown aspects of reality.
4. General relativity highlights the interconnectedness of all entities and phenomena.
5. Advaita Makaranda emphasizes the illusory nature of both the dream state and the wakeful state.
6. In the dream state, one perceives a reality that is ultimately revealed as illusory upon awakening.
7. The wakeful state, though seemingly stable, is also subject to the play of appearances and is considered illusory.
8. These examples demonstrate the transient and deceptive nature of perceived reality.
9. Neurophysiological differences, conscious experiences, memory, time perception, and the occurrence of lucid dreaming do not negate the illusory nature of the dream and wakeful states.
10. From an Advaitic perspective, both the dream state and wakeful state are ultimately equally unreal, inviting individuals to discover the unchanging essence of awareness that transcends these transient experiences.

Of all the talks and Q&A sessions recorded on YouTube by Swami Sarvapriyananda, this……..”The Honey of Non-Duality”………is the single most important talk of them all. I have finally found “the golden nugget” of Advaita Vedanta teachings. I most heartily thank Swami for his gracious teaching which opened my inner eye to the reality of I Am 🙏🙏 I am eternally grateful. 🌼🌸🌷🌿

My purva janma’s karma that I get to listen to these words dripping in honey sitting on the other side of the country!

মহারাজ আপনি এখনও 'Pilot' আছেন। কত শত সহস্র দিশাহীন দিকভ্রান্ত মানুষের কান্না থেমে যায় শুধু আপনার কণ্ঠস্বর শুনলেই।
'মূর্ত মহেশ্বর উজ্জ্বল ভাস্কর'🌹🌹।
আমার বিনীত প্রণাম জানালাম আপনার কাছে। গ্রহণ করবেন।

True Swamiji, I Am two most powerful words. What we put after that shapes our reality. Shri Nisargdutta Maharaja used to emphasise that one mediate on I Am. This teaching was given to him by his guru Shri Siddashware Maharaj and he got the freedom.

Adi Shankara was both a great Vedanti and a Devotee.

Just downloaded the translation by my friend S.Atmarupanandaji! Kindle version for $ 0.60!

[vasukinagabhushan]

In ancient texts like Mahabharata, different Darshanas like Saankhya, Yoga, Meemaamsa and Vedanta are included and interwoven. Modern Vedantins speak as if Vedanta is totally separate and other Darshanas should be ignored or suppressed.

Thank you Swamiji for your continuous work

Delighted and grateful to see the Advaita Makaranda featured on the VSNY YouTube channel. I look forward to the future release of Swami Sarvapriyanandaji’s discourse on all 28 verses of this wonderful text. The mangala shloka (prayer for auspiciousness) penned by Sri Lakshmidhara Kavi to start this text is just exquisite.
