ABOUT VEDANTA
Vedanta is one of the world’s most ancient religious philosophies and one of its broadest. Based on the Vedas, the sacred scriptures of India, Vedanta affirms the oneness of existence, the divinity of the soul, and the harmony of religions. ABOUT US Vedanta Society of New York is affiliated with the Ramakrishna Order of India. In fact, this is the Order's first Center started by Swami Vivekananda, in 1894. It was a historic event, for the seed of the world-wide Ramakrishna Movement was sown here in New York over a century ago. Swami Sarvapriyananda is the present Resident Minister and Spiritual Leader of the Vedanta Society of New York.

I follow several different teachers from various “faiths”/philosophies, but he might be my favorite overall. His very personal, down to Earth, helpful, and often hilarious anecdotes are wonderful, like the random story of the Swami in the coffin here😂 And his analogy of sunlight and moonlight here, though clearly off the cuff, was perfect.

Bhagawan Ramana used to say one interesting thing while discussing on the Seer , Seen and the process of seeing the World via Body , Mind, Intellect, Ego and finally how the Self is at the substratum of all . He has compared this to a Movie Screen, the Projecter, Film and the Electric Current. That tiny ray of light which hits the big Screen and brings about all the fanfare is compared to the Consciousness. The paradox here, he avers, that we too are in the midst of the screen enjoying as well as crying over the fanfare that's reeled out in the screen, our Self , which is the substratum [ Witness ] of all the activities [ shadow based, ofcourse ] in this mela.

Self inquiry will revel that you are not the personality you think you are. You are not the drop nor are you the ocean, You are not even water, For all of these are words..nor are you H2O,, or vapour...you are the beginning of it all.... but to experience the above in it's forms...we need a body mind complex with knowledge names & forms as the basis and in experiencing the above an identity is registered with us as "I".

😀 well Swami ji truelly what you explained is much better than any online vedant acharya I mean literally, and it is also true that when a human desire/interest got awake/become more intense to get to know oneself n feel restless untill they discovered the ultimate truth means he is on the way to his home ,spiritual journey had started n this is the sign of person to liberate yet it's process,this is advance Level ques , many self proclaimed vedantik master breath goes swelled up to give ans this doubt, but I think many listeners still in confusion :) First our vedanta said that we are the observer and at the last they refused it we are not even observer!but one more steps higher than this,dn who we are ?beyond observe/knower/seer and with respect thers clear ans but it's your show :) by the way what we are here talking about is info/process/methods/ 'experience' is goal of vedanta , Unless the teachings of Vedanta are clearly understood/fit in one's own 'experience'/'feeling',/realization , the words are just info but again I enjoyed a lot :) 🙏🚩 I 'know' I'm pure consciousness but que is did i 'experienced' it ? Sure ? :) but it's process need patience Patience

Witness means it must be knowing something. But it won't be affected with the happenings whether good or bad, happy or sorrow all the duals. This was told in the context of Bahirmukh. In case of Antarmukh you are not witness or knower. There is no second to know or witness.
