What a beautiful interview! Everything changed for me when I first read ‘ Everything Belongs’ it was, as they say, a game changer. Thank you!

Spirituality is natural goodness. It is not a thing; it is the atmosphere of God's Presence, Goodness, Truth, and Beauty. God is not a person; God is a Presence Personified in us. Sounds good to me! 💛 Thank you both☮️

I feel blessed to have listened to this beautiful conversation and I think everyone who hears this is blessed. Many people turn away from religions because they have the impression that every religion wants to claim a sole claim to truth. Here we see that this does not apply to those that have progressed in faith.

We don’t think we’re going to die because we intuitively know we don’t die, our earth body does, as is natural.

The real world is not like this it has no buildings and there are no streets where people walk alone and separate. There are no stores where people buy an endless list of things they do not need. It is not lit with artificial light, and night comes not upon it. There is no loss. Nothing is there but shines, and shines forever. Death is a reward and not a punishment. Love & Peace ♥️☮️🙏

@@SwamiPadmanabhahay videos donde no sale ningúna opción, otros solo en inglés, en otros hay opciones en todos los idiomas. Pensé que dependía de algo que se hace al publicar los videos. En éste en particular no vi ninguna opción y me preocupé ya que estaba esperando esta conversación desde siempre y cuando non vi la opción, se puede imaginar el desespere, pero empezaron a salir los subtitulos en italiano luego de haber escrito el mensaje 👀. Extraño pero para mi, super 😁. Ahora los hay en todos los idiomas 🤣. 🙏

But doesnt Fr Rohr teach advaita non-dualism? Not compatible with vaisnavism or dominant bhakti mindset - prabhupad taught non dualism was satanic.

@SwamiPadmanabha 22 күн бұрын

Yes, Fr. Rohr teaches non-dualism. And Srila Prabhupada also teaches non-dualism, since Gaudiya Vaishnavism is a non-dual tradition, like every other Vaishnava tradition. Advaita Vedanta is Radical Non-dualism, while Vaishnava traditions present various forms of Nuanced Non-dualism. If you want, see the tenth chapter of my book Radical Personalism for more on this.

@IC-XC_NIKA 21 күн бұрын

@@SwamiPadmanabha what about Dvaita Vedanta - thats a Vaisnava tradition too, no? I cannot purchase your book out of my objection to Fr Rohr who radically and criminally misrepresents the historic Christian tradition which asserts the eternal distinction between God and the individual soul.

@SwamiPadmanabha 21 күн бұрын

@@IC-XC_NIKA Dvaita Vedanta, despite positing a strong emphasis on the difference between matter and spirit as well as God and the soul, nonetheless also highlights the interconnectedness of them all, and therefore it´s also a non-dual tradition. As I already mentioned, Richard Rohr does not cancel the eternal distinction between God and the soul. I know him personally and have read many of his books, and nowhere does he say such a thing. Again, non-dual doesn´t mean impersonal.
