163. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14, Verses 1 - 5 I Swami Sarvapriyananda
Q: If there is a realization already of being absolute, then why would there be a Sadhana?
Even though realization is simple, ignorance doesn't disappear by itself; it requires inquiry and practice.
163. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14, Verses 1 - 5 I Swami Sarvapriyananda
Q: In Advaita Vedanta, is God realization more like a step to realizing the Brahman because God is Consciousness plus Maya?
Yes, but not considered a step; God realization is equivalent to realizing Brahman.
163. Bhagavad Gita Chapter 14, Verses 1 - 5 I Swami Sarvapriyananda
Q: On the nirguna cosmology, are we guaranteed moksha?
From a nirguna perspective, one is already free. Freedom and bondage only relate to samsara.
Gospel | Chapter 4: Aug 24, 1882 (Part 2) | Swami Sarvapriyananda
Q: What about the type of karma? Can I still have what will be my relation with family?
Even spiritual seekers perform work. The work must be done with a proper attitude and within the limits of morality.
Gospel | Chapter 4: Aug 24, 1882 (Part 2) | Swami Sarvapriyananda
Q: Sir, may I make an effort to earn more money?
It is permissible to do so in order to maintain a religious family, but the goal is the service of God, not the earning of money.
