"The mind is very restless, turbulent, strong and obstinate, O Krishna. It appears to me that it is more difficult to control than the wind" - Bhagavad Gita (6.34)
"Lord Krishna said: O mighty-armed son of Kunti, what you say is correct; the mind is indeed very difficult to restrain. But by practice and detachment, it can be controlled" - Bhagavad Gita (6.35)
Inspired by these verses, Swami Sarvapriyananda provides invaluable guidance on improving our meditation.

I have been following Swami Sarvapriyananda for years starting with his first lectures at the Vedanta Society of Southern California, and his expositions just keep getting better and better. - and he started from a very high benchmark! In this talk he cuts through so much, with such incisive, insightful analysis, bringing it together with such focus, clarity and lucidity. And so simply. 🙏🏼✨🙏🏼 What a blessing our SwamiJi is. I feel privileged to just hear him. His teaching is illuminated.

@sanatbakshi3542 2 жыл бұрын

Agree with what all that you say. I am a new follower just starting out to listen to him. What a wonderful experience it is to listen to his wisdom, incisive logic, practical examples and metaphors, references to classic Vedic sources, great scholarship, a ceaseless flow of words from within, such unassuming and humble personality, nicely interspersed humorous comments, ease of references to everyday examples from daily life that we can all relate to, respect for the intelligence of his audience...I could go on, but no words can really do justice to his sharp mind and pure brilliance. He is a blessing to all humanity, and we should consider ourselves so fortunate to have him accessible to us all remotely via KZfaq. God bless him with the best of health so he can continue to teach us, show us a path to follow and share his wisdom with all for decades to come...Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti...

What a brilliant mind and beautiful soul. Swamiji is a natural teacher and communicator. I love the way he simplifies the subjects with everyday examples and anecdotes. Swamiji then is considerate enough to summarize for us what he has spoken so that we can better remember what we need to do. May God continue to bless him. Om Tat Sat!
