April 2024 Satsang with Swami Medhananda

#advaita #vedanta #swamimedhananda Swami Medhananda recounts his spiritual journey, beginning with childhood exposure to religious practices and evolving into a philosophical exploration during high school and college. They extensively studied various religious scriptures, including the Bhagavad Gita, which deeply impressed them despite initial agnosticism. The idea of attaining transcendental peace and realizing one's divine nature resonated strongly. Eventually, Swami Medhananda's desire to become a monk led them to seek initiation, initially planning to go to India. However, his guru suggested joining locally, which they reluctantly agreed to for a brief period before realizing it didn't sit well with them. Encounters with influential figures like Swami Sarvadevananda encouraged him to follow his heart's desire to be a monk in India. They embarked on a pilgrimage and eventually joined Vivekananda University. Swami Medhananda later discusses Vedantic philosophy, the integration of various Vedantic schools, and the importance of spiritual honesty, emphasizing the need to confront life's challenges rather than bypassing them with spirituality. Finally, he express his intention to write commentaries on scriptures based on Sri Ramakrishna's teachings and offer guidance to seekers on their spiritual paths. ====== Clip From: Satsang | Swami Medhananda -    • Satsang | Swami Medhananda   Swami Sarvapriyananda | Vedanta New York | Vedanta Society of Southern California | Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture Golpark, Kolkata | Swami Vivekananda | Self-realization | Advaita Vedanta | Hinduism Follow Vedanta New York:    / vedantany   Follow Vedanta Society of Southern California:    / vedantaorg   Follow Ramakrishna Mission Institute of Culture Golpark:    / @rmicgolpark   iTunes Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/veda...
