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.

The diagnosis of resistance towards meditation on theistic forms as “a dveṣa created by Catholic school,” is really brilliant. I think it’s a big problem for Western people.

Excellent lecture! Very interesting point about: Tadartha bhavanam. All names & forms can be Bhakti.

The same person can be gyaani, bhakta and yogi. Why limit oneself in the quest to merge with the infinite? Also “Intelligence“ that the good professor is so adversarial about, is what is shining through him.

I’d love to see a dialogue between Professor Bryant and Swami Sarvapriyananda about any topic. They are the most prominent figures in the Indian tradition nowadays.

Brilliant scholar and closely drifting to the point. There's the truth somewhere here. For, in the end, we all get started somewhere, even the greatest of all, but the difference shows when one gets closer to one's destination. The nearer to the ultimate the less we change, so if one becomes a professor, let's say, he got all koodos by not turning into a pompous ass. This guy might actually be close enough to a mukta: the one approximating the highest truth. Beats some brahmins I met who by knowing a whole lot were irritable and arrogant.

It is now that Indians are getting to know their roots. Decades of invasion by Mughals and Britishers completely destroyed our Vedic culture. Brahmins were killed, temples were destroyed and literature and books were burnt. But what is most frustrating is that even after independence we were ruled by a government that had no understanding of Hinduism and tried to impose British secularism to Indians. As a result the current Indian population has no idea about the breadth and depth of their own culture. Studying Sanskrit is considered as backwardness and we are heavily influenced by the western thoughts and way of living.
