You're a good human, dear sir. Keep sharing knowledge with us ignorant ones. Pranaam 🙏

The GLOW in your eyes.... priceless. You are a very rare gem.
Most of the Gurus in India find it difficult even to touch the surface; you are so effortlessly diving deep into the Paramatma Jeevatma Tatvams, which is commendable.
Would be interesting to see if you are covering the Paramatma Tatvam's key goals. Will listen and find.

bro.. is more hindu than most of the hindus in india...deep knowledge about sanatan dharma..salute:washhands::washhands::washhands:❤

You have simplified the vast knowledge so that common man can understand too. This is so calming to listen to you. Thank you 🙏🏽

I was aimlessly surfing the internet, and accidentally came across this video at 2 in the morning last night. OMG, I am speechless!!!!!
I have not read/heard from anywhere such a detailed dissection of the terms Brahman and Atman. You have not only managed to breakdown such an esoteric subject in the most  simplistic and detailed manner, but have anticipated all the questions, anyone might ask during a live conversation. Even the most reputed Hindu priests and /or, some popular mystics have not managed explain so effectively. I am lucky to have found you. I watched this video twice, and then I watched the video on Maya.
Again another Gem of a video. I am blown away with you knowledge of the  vedas, upnishads.
I bearly slept last night. Just woke up and eager to watch other videos.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
Can’t thank enough for spreading this knowledge. 🙏🙏🙏

Nameste Peter,  I am a new subscriber to your channel. I have been on a spiritual journey studying Hinduism the last few years. I absolutely love Hinduism's scared texts. Just wanted to say thank you for explaining the reality called Brahman.  You have done an awesome articulating the complexities of Brahman and Atman. Thank you!

Wow that's awesome ❤lots of love and blessings 🙏🤗

Vedanta not only describe it but gives instructions to experience it.

It's interesting to note that the concept of "Brahman" exists in the early Rig Veda Samhitas as well, albeit in a rudimentary form. Many people believe that Brahman was only developed in the Upanishads, and that the early Rig Vedic people were complete polytheists (just like their Indo-European counterparts elsewhere). However, this is not the case, as we have seen in the Nasadiya Suktam and elsewhere, where the "One" is described.

In other verses of the Rig Veda it is alluded to as the origin point of all the Devas, and "It" is called by multiple names. We even see the concept of "Atman" in the RV samhitas as well, where they refer to the Atman as the sacrificial fire Agni. In that context, Agni is used metaohorically to the Spirit/Arman, not the Deva Agni nor the sacrificial fire of the Yagna.

Because the early Indo-Aryans were tribal and lacked the precise language that was refined in the later Upanishadic era, they only had natural elements to describe metaphysical concepts, so they used nature, like Agni, in this case, to describe deeper spiritual concepts.

You’re a great teacher.👨‍🏫

What we call the soul is essentially the fractal that we are, acting like agencies of conciousness.
"Conciousness is a unified singularity"

Physicist Erwin Schrödinger's writing was the first that I'd heard of this, which is very appealing to me. Schrödinger jokingly called it his second equation. But this video is the most important video that I have ever seen on YouTube.

This is one of those best explanations of Brahman. Parabrahma Swaroopam, the grounded being. Beautifully explained. Refreshing to hear that. Many Hindus may even know how many vedas, samhitas and upanishads are. Peter explaining way is also clear and simple.

Your discourses on the Gita and the Upanishads are indeed very profound and thoughtful.
Thank you for your clarity.

Finally someone explaining it the right way, glad i stumbled upon the page❤ it's hard to find the same discussions elsewhere
Brahman is indeed the ultimate and indescribable reality❤

Only a few minds are capable of understanding the vedic knowledge beyond words and concepts. Peter Bollard is certainly one of them. Thanks for leading us.

This is very easy to understand on yourself if you observed at any point , even I realised that everything is just a bubble for a given time sapan,, because everything arround me was emerging out of Earth and by some means it returns to it that's why its all real for a given timespan only,,

The Supreme Being in Hinduism is the abstract BRAHMAN who is formless, inconceivable, inexpressible and is one with the universe and beyond.

Oh my! I've been going crazy trying to find this out! For the last 55 years I've known but needed this corroborated by someone who can correlate the words of Christ and the vedic principles! Your video has been like drinking fresh water from a well that I knew was there but couldn't find!
Thank you so much and bless you!
I particularly love your analogy of waves upon the ocean waving to each other but not knowing we're part of the vast sea of love! 💖🙏💖

Name Buddhaya, Peter! Thank you so much for giving such an elaborate description and explanation about this sacred concept: Brahman-Atman. I'm currently researching and taking notes for a class about Religions in India in my university, and frankly out of all the videos I've been watching to get a better understanding, this video of yours is very comprehensive. I've learned about Hinduism fairly not much in the past, but these days I'm writing a paper about this topic. Thank you for your time to come here and give us a descriptive explanation. This topic, as I can say for myself, is interesting but also somewhat complex to understand. Your knowledge is truly acknowledgeable for your kindness and patience with us all. After watching your video, I have come to have grasped a better understanding about Brahman-Atman. Your inclusion of examples was very helpful and it gave us a clear and transparent connection to helping us with analogies. May the Noble Triple Gem bless you! Have a good rest of your day, sir. Sādhu 🙏
