Swamiji's Talks

Swamiji’s very first address to the Poona audience at the 1st Gnana Yagna.

The science of all sciences, it guides us to the Knowledge Absolute.

Each one of you now please ask this question to yourself ”Who is this I?”

Let us see for ourselves what is our relationship with the Absolute.

We are here today to seek a source for all life, the one Reality behind all appearances.

Without Ishwara Bhakthi no progress is possible. It is an absolute necessity.

Each moment we are preparing ourselves for the lives yet to come.

I am using today a board and chalk since the subject is not easy.

The Upanishads are revelations; not the products of mind & intellect.

Suppose a few of you and this Sadhu go for a walk on a moonlit night...

To a seeker, a Guru is as absolutely an unavoidable necessity.

Stop the mind! Then there is no world, Samsara. Wake yourself up. That's all.

Where can this land of Truth be? What is the world beyond the horizon?

Mind and intellect are to be considered as Chappals to keep away.

The Knower knows the Known and it equally knows the Unknown.

This light that illumines the mind giving a semblance of Reality is ‘Chit’.

We outcasts in the Atma Loka cannot be given a direct darshan of Reality.

You can only meditate yourself into it. The merger of "I" and "you" is possible.

The Intellect throws a pool of reflected Atmic Glory called the Ego.

This achievement is within the scope of every mortal; the real fulfillment of life's journey.

Learn to see the one Truth that lies self-evident in all names and forms.

Man can rise to God-hood even while he is in the body. Here and Now.

We must continue our pursuit expecting nothing, hoping nothing…

The Idol is the means. Self-Discovery is the goal. Confusing the two leads to sorrow.

Austerity, restraint and dedicated work; these are the foundations of It.

No funds to print the Kathopanishad talks.
