Subject: Vedāntasāra

Speaker : Swami Viditatmananda Saraswatiji

Vedāntasāra means essence of Vedānta and as the name suggests, this text provides an analysis of the basic principles of Vedānta as taught by the Upaniṣads. Vedānta can be summarized in one simple statement : tat tvamasi, which reveals the identity between tat, which stands for jīva or a limited conscious being. This means that one who takes onself as limited is in fact limitless. This knowledge releases one from all the complexes about oneself and resultant sorrow, both born of the ignorance of the basic reality of oneself. One owns up to one’s true nature that is limitless, wholeness, and unconditional happiness. One becomes jīvan-mukta, liberated in this life itself. One attains the ultimate goal of life; freedom and fulfillment.

This text as being exquisitely complete in its being an entirely comprehensive teaching of all the essentials of Vedānta that one need ever know; the teaching covers an incredible spectrum of topics and is, at the same time, both simple and profound. For this reason, the text will serve wonderfully well as a go-to-resource for easily looking up certain terms and references as well as finding more detailed explanations of familiar concepts and totally new ideas in a one-text-covers-all kind of way. If there is one text go over and over, it would be this one. And if there is one text that can teach something new each and every time, it would be this one. This may sound like cliché, but it contains an undeniable element of truth.

Subject: Guided Meditation

Speaker : H. H. Pujya Swami Viditatmananda Saraswatiji

It is said that the mind is the cause of both bondage and liberation. What is meant by mind is a stream of thoughts. If this stream of thoughts flows towards the objects of the world the mind becomes the cause of bondage. If it is made to flow towards īśvara or the self, it becomes the cause of liberation. Therefore, maintaining a desirable flow of thoughts of meditation is of utmost importance.

The stream of thoughts having īśvara or the self as its principal object is called sajātīya vrͅͅtti-pravāha and that forms the subject matter of this Guided Meditation podcast series.
