#1 Swami Dayananda: An Inquiry into the Nature of "I"

[vivekacp]

Wonderful ! What a Revelation. All Doubts & Question answered. Never have seen any kind of this discussion in any other religion.

[jawsad1]

I do understand nothing from his speech . Please ask him to speak scientifically . And truly

[thinktankfull]

@jawsad1 I/you/we - the subject. atoms and space - the object (your body my body our bodies collapse down to atoms and space hence objects).

This much scientific?

The I/you/we is unknown to science yet. So wait till science gets there. No choice for you.

[GeorgeGogle]

astounding!

[ServeTruth2u]

We are parts of the Supreme Whole. We are not the whole.

[paparikh]

Wrong. Swami Dayananda teaches that we ARE the whole...

Quote: "you don't require samadhi, you ARE the whole"

Do not mislead others.

[JorgeLuisJaureguiM]

If something is The Whole, where is there room for parts? The Whole, Brahman, is the true nature of the Self (âtmâ), just like water, the whole which is the ultimate reality of the sea, is also the reality of each and every wave. There are not two waters. That whole, you are, even though the mind does not know it. That is what needs to be known if one is to fulfill one's life. Seek to discover That as yourself.

[paparikh]

Very well said, my pranAm to you Sir, for uploading these videos. If Moksh is to happen to me in this birth, you will be partly responsible for providing the means and stimulus by uploading these great videos. I have downloaded them all, and they make a great listen on my mp3 player :) thank you very much once again, im indebted to you !

[KarameloKaramelo]

I sometimes feel there is no 'I', like deciding to write a reply to what you posted. It happened without an I. BUt if there is 1 whole, how can that I(as the whole) can only activate my body nad not yours at he same time? Still seperation going on.

[JorgeLuisJaureguiM]

Looking at yourself as the personality structure (body/mind/senses), you are correct. Those aspects are all made up of parts and they are part of a large universe, which is made up of parts also. The Whole, Brahman, is that from which everything has manifest, upon which it exists and to what it all goes back to. That you are.

[ajaykewale]

@ServeTruth2u

My friend, you are the whole and complete....

Each soul is potentially divine

[gundabalf]

wait, what?

[isadvaithamtru]

I do not understand. He says you are the whole in one video. Then he says that you are not this and that. and calls both knowledge. knowledge must necessarily BE INTEGRATION OF WHAT IS PERCEIVED BY THE SENSE ORGANS.

[JorgeLuisJaureguiM]

So you SEE two people looking in the direction of where you stand, and HEAR them say 'he is foolish person.' Here there is intergration of what is perceived by the sense organs. Yes, there is knowledge, but is it true they are talking about you? You might conclude they are, but what about if there is someone beyond you that you don't see, and they are referring to that person and not you? Your non-apprehension of what IS, caused your mind to misapprehend the reality causing you to sufffer anger.

[isadvaithamtru]

Dear Jorge thanks . your words ' the non-apprehension of what IS caused your mind to misapprehend the reality'. have hit home. I now see it. thanks very much.

[rasTeachLuv]

"there is nothing like I" "not this not this"

[cwalwanis]

Thank you for posting this. I have been wanting to find a teacher of "Hinduism" for some time but would often see argument and controversy around so many. I saw that this Swami has a temple that's only about a half hour from my area and it seems that pretty much everyone considers him the real deal so I thought of going and now after being able to see him on video, I'm definitely interested in going there. Thanks again. Namaste.

[SmokeingEars]

Man...this really is beutiful

[MrSigma]

Are you new to Advaita philosphy?

[tomepastas]

someone could share more videos please!!! its very interesring

[mindoropogi1]

I have had the pleasure and honour to meet Swamiji three times on his trips to Australia.My teacher in Australia is Swami Budhananda.So the Tradition and Knowledge of the Rsis is imparted,,guru,,sisya,,parampa­ra.

I knew I had found something,after decades of searching,when Swami Budhananda,on our first meeting,asked me if I was a Seeker..I don't like New Age terms much,but meekly nodded.

He said,"Well stop looking,,you are only looking for yourself"."The Seeker is the Saught".Om Tat Sat.

[maddydb]

Buber said the same stuff years ago, KUDOS TO JEWISH PHILOSOPHY.

[MrSigma]

This is Advaita philosophy of 5000 BC much before Buber! Please do some research!

[thaiW1]

That may be true but Vedanta has been around for thousands of years.

[thismoment23]

EXCELLENT, thank you so much for sharing.

[joeananda]

Jai shri ram

[jesuisravi]

[rselvaraju]

He is good. Try to assimilate or practice .You will have a self evident as a joy or complete.

[JUSTRELAXANENJOY]

Namaste

GREAT!

Thank you for sharing this vid!!

[rselvaraju]

From personally meeting him 20 years ago. He is good man.I have now got knowledge as self evident. i do not need him or Guru. But need him to know that self of your in the begging mAN from his teaching. REGARDS your well wisher RS

[utd002]

Why only Goat got sacrificed by Hazrat ibrahim when he was asked to sacrifise his most precious thing coz only Goat recites main or I and when its through is cut that main or I sound dies

[rselvaraju]

Here The I used by Swami is symbol only. You are right we break this berrial and realise the true or the essence and it is consciousness . he have to use the common term I as non dual. regards Ali

[samirvyas]

Fantastic!!!

[adammannus]

I pray I will never forget, even when myself leads me astray.

[soundman420]

i love hearing swami dayananda talk. always makes me feel calm and is very enlightening. i love his sense of humor as well. thanks!

[arunachala1008]

beautiful

[AnandoJ]

He is the Master no teacher since Sankara has explained Vedanta so beautifully, succintly and so lucidly. He is amazing with abundant love, infinite. We are blessed to "be" with him.

[utd002]

as long as I exists God will never exist in us, I is the hurdle between us and God, it represents our ego
