  • Phenomenological Materiality in Introspection, with a Reference to Advaita Vedanta
    Open Theology 2017; 3: 257–273 Phenomenology of Religious Experience Open Access Olga Louchakova-Schwartz* Qualia of God: Phenomenological Materiality in Introspection, with a Reference to Advaita Vedanta DOI 10.1515/opth-2017-0021 Received March 14, 2017; accepted April 26, 2017 Abstract: Applying Michel Henry’s philosophical framework to the phenomenological analysis of religious experience, the author introduces a concept of material introspection and a new theory of the constitution of religious experience in phenomenologically material interiority. As opposed to ordinary mental self-scrutiny, material introspection happens when the usual outgoing attention is reverted onto embodied self-awareness in search of mystical self-knowledge or union with God. Such reversal posits the internal field of consciousness with the self-disclosure of phenomenological materiality. As shown by the example of Vedantic self-inquiry, material introspection is conditioned on the attitude ‘I “see” myself’ and employs reductions which relieve phenomenological materiality from the structuring influence of intentionality; the telos of material introspection is expressed by the inward self-transcendence of intentional consciousness into purified phenomenological materiality. Experience in material introspection is constituted by the self-affection and self-luminosity of phenomenological materiality; experience is recognized as religious due to such essential properties as the capacity of being self- fulfilled, and specific qualitative “what it’s like”(s).

Among all the qualities, ahiṁsā and kṣamā constitute the qualities of a saint. The minimum qualifications for a saint are these two qualities. One need not have wisdom, one need not have scriptural learning to be a saint, but one must have these two values. A saint is a person who never consciously hurts another person by action, word, or thought, and who accepts people – good or bad – just as they are. A saint is he who has an endless capacity to be accommodative, forgiving, and merciful.” -Pujya Sri Swami Dayananda Arsha Vidya Pitham Programs 3 & Special Events 2020 AVG Events Calendar ......................................................................................................... 0 Spring Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................... 0 Summer Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................ 0 Children’s Programs ............................................................................................................ 0 Fall Vedānta Programs ........................................................................................................ 0 Special Vedānta Programs .................................................................................................. 0 Vedānta Teaching Centers .................................................................................................

  • Vedanta: the Way of Wisdom
    Hinduism Vedanta: The Way of Wisdom Vedanta: The Way of Wisdom Summary: Historically, Vedanta refers to the Upanishads or wisdom “at the end of the Veda.” Vedanta is also a philosophical teaching that requires a transfer of revolutionary knowledge (jnana) through the guidance of a teacher (guru). The term Vedanta refers, first, to the Upanishads, those teachings that stand at the “end of the Veda.” But these teachings also stand at the beginning of India’s traditions of philosophical reflection. There are several systems of philosophy, called darshanas or “viewpoints.” One of them, perhaps the most influential, is known specifically as Vedanta. Among its most famous advocates is the philosopher Shankara (c. 8th century CE). The Upanishads ask, “What is the foundation of all that is?” “What is the nature of the soul?” “What is the relation of this soul to that foundation?” Shankara asserts the identity, or at least “non-duality” of Brahman, the foundational reality, and Atman, the soul. The phenomenal universe, he says, is related to the oneness of this Reality as waves are manifest in the sea. According to Vedanta, however, the real “answers” to these kinds of questions require not simply book- learning, but deep insight. This insight is called jnana. It is revolutionary wisdom, turning one’s consciousness toward Brahman. It is enlightening, transforming wisdom. This alone, they say, is the gateway to the spiritual freedom that is called moksha, liberation. Wisdom is difficult to acquire on one’s own. It is the teacher, the guru, who guides one along the spiritual path. The teachings of the Upanishads were never intended to be published for anyone to buy.

  • Satsanga with Sri Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha
    Satsanga with Sri Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha Vidya Gurukulam Brahman, Éçvara, and Other Gods in Hinduism Question Would you please talk about the relationship between Brahman and éçvara? Answer The relationship between Brahman and éçvara is similar to the relationship that exists between an actor and the role he plays. Imagine an actor playing the role of king. What is the relationship between the actor and the king? A relationship requires two entities; it can only be played out between two separate entities. Can there be a relationship between the actor and the king? No, there cannot be because they are the same entity. Then why do you use two names? Why do you say ‘actor’ and ‘king’ if, in fact, there is only one entity? This is because the actor is a king from the standpoint of his costume and the function that he performs. So also, Brahman alone is éçvara. When Brahman wears the costume of ‘mäyä’, He becomes creator, sustainer, and dissolver. Therefore, from the standpoint of being in the costume of mäyä, Brahman is called éçvara. Just as from the standpoint of the costume we call the actor a king or a beggar, so also, Brahman alone is éçvara. Brahman and éçvara are not different from each other in the same way as an ornament and the gold of which it is made are not different. The gold alone is called the ornament. Similarly, Brahman alone is called éçvara. From the standpoint of the creation, Brahman is creator, sustainer, and dissolver. It is in these roles that Brahman is éçvara.

  • Vedanta 101 Question I Am Coming to the Gurukulam for the First Time and Would Like to Know What This Family Camp Provides, and What I Should Expect When I Go Home
    Satsang with Sri Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha Vidya Gurukulam Vedanta 101 Question I am coming to the Gurukulam for the first time and would like to know what this Family Camp provides, and what I should expect when I go home. Answer This is a retreat and the purpose of the retreat is to help us live a contemplative life for a period of one week, when you are free from all other demands and occupations. There are no other expectations or demands of you, or duties other than applying yourself to study, prayer, and contemplation. This enables us to create a distance from the rest of our life. We all live very busy, active lives and the impact of our daily activities remains in our day-to-day life. It becomes necessary to be free of this impact. A camp such as this enables us to become objective about our own lives so that we can take stock of what the purpose of our life is, what our life is about, and in which direction we are going. Coming to the Gurukulam helps us to create a distance between ourselves and our daily life and relationships. During the retreat, we will be studying a text, which gives us an overview of Vedanta, or the Upanishads. The teaching is in reference to our own life. The study of the text will enable you to understand the nature of basic realities of life. There is ‘I’, the individual, there is the world with which I interact, and there is God, who is the creator of the world.

  • Taking Our Temperature
    Editorial Taking Our Temperature In the current issue of American Vedantist, we present different perspectives on the Vedanta movement in the West, from Swami Vivekananda’s pioneering work to new models for the future. These perspectives offer a variety of views about the role of Vedanta in the West: how it was presented in the beginning, how it is being lived out in most of our centers at present, and what are our hopes for it in the future. Is Vedanta a universal philosophy independent of any particular religion? Or is it a sophisticated form of Hinduism? How has Vedanta in the West changed since Swami Vivekananda’s original presentation? Do Vedanta Centers in the West have social responsibilities with regard to the surrounding society? Should they undertake social service activities as the Ramakrishna Mission does in India? Have the centers become Hindu temples and cultural centers for a mostly Indian immigrant population? Does it matter? How should they serve what is now an American minority of members? Do native- born Americans, including the children of Indian immigrants, have different needs from the immigrants themselves? Is Indian culture an obstacle to prospective new Western Vedantists? We encourage you, our readers, to send us your opinions on these questions. From its inception, one of AV’s main objectives has been to foster a sense of community among Vedantists in the West through the sharing of views and experiences. Such sharing can encourage us to reexamine our own lives, and can also contribute to strengthening our combined efforts. We have inherited a legacy of high spiritual idealism.

    ARSHA VIDYA GURUKULAM 34th Anniversary Souvenir September 20, 2020 In Celebration of the 90th Jayanti of Pujya Sri Swami Dayananda Saraswati न िह ानने सश ं पिवऽम इ् ह िवते na hi jñānena sadṛśaṁ pavitram iha vidyate “In this word, there is indeed no purifier equivalent to knowledge” (Bhagavad Gītā, 4.38) Anniversary Message Swami Dayananda Saraswati In day-to-day life, you need a lot of grace. .That is the beauty of grace. You have to earn the grace of the guru. It may be easily available, but you have to earn it with śraddhā and bhakti. With śraddhā, in seeking knowledge you go through what is taught again. You need not write it down–keep it in your mind and ruminate over that. That is earning the guru’s grace. When the guru’s grace is there, the words of the śāstra he teaches become real to you. They become a reality. In fact, you become that reality. The guru’s grace will help you cross the distance between understanding and having the words. It is called lakṣya; that lakṣya is accomplished by guru’s grace. May all enjoy guru’s grace, Īśvara’s grace, śāstra’s grace, and one’s own grace. We all live in grace. We live upon grace. May the grace of all the sources of grace be with you all. Page Sponsored by Nalini and Prabhu Dev 3 4 Anniversary Message Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati We are happy that, with the support of the devotees, well-wishers and donors, we are able to celebrate this 34th anniversary of the Gurukulam in spite of the difficulties posed by the pandemic.

Located on 14 acres in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania, a serene setting in the Pocono Mountains, the Gurukulam offers short and long term programs of study for guest and resident students of all ages. The campus is adorned by a beautiful temple dedicated to Lord Dakshinamurti, considered the first teacher of Vedic knowledge.

  • Satsang with Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha Vidya Gurukulam
    Satsang with Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha Vidya Gurukulam Hinduism and India Today Question While we are seeking the Truth, our culture is being slaughtered by terrorists and overzealous missionaries. What can we do? Answer Our culture is under attack not because we are busy seeking the Truth, but because we are not organized. We do not have unity, and therefore, we do not speak in one voice. Many Indians do not have a value for Hinduism, and hence this lack of unity. We pride ourselves on being modern, educated and neutral Hindus, and sometimes even ridicule our own religious tradition. Factors such as vote-bank politics and one-sided coverage by the media have also helped to create a hostile environment to Hinduism in India. Unfortunately, Hindus are not aware or concerned. History has shown that India was invaded repeatedly because our people were not united. In addition, the Hindus have neglected large sections of the society who have been exploited. All India Movement for Seva is an attempt by Pujya Swamiji to do something in that direction. It aims to make people aware that if they have some resources, then it becomes their responsibility to reach out to the underprivileged sections of the society. We tend to think that whatever we earn belongs to us, but that is not so. According to the Bhagavad Gita, others also have a share in our wealth. Question Maharishi Aurobindo said that India has so many people living in a dhärmic way praying to Éçvara. The Pope also said that India is full of divinity.
