Replay: Ethical Foundations of Nondual Spirituality with Swami Sarvapriyananda 9/28/2020

Thank you to all who joined us for this wonderful meeting with Swami Sarvapriyananda. Please scroll down to watch the video replay.

Topic: Ethical Foundations of Nondual Spirituality
Host: Swami Sarvapriyananda
Date: September 28, 2020

Description:
This conversation explored the profound interconnections between ethics and Advaita Vedanta. An ethical life is foundational to the spiritual quest, a non-negotiable sine qua non to any real spiritual development. One can be good without being particularly “spiritual”, but there is no spirituality without goodness. But it is also true that ethics are a consequence of nonduality. For as long as thinkers have pondered ethics, they have searched for a foundation, a grounding, for ethics. Why should one be good and do good? The various answers thinkers have come up with through the ages – utilitarianism, deontology, and so forth – have all been found seriously wanting. Nonduality claims to provide a deep foundation for ethics. We explored the philosophical and practical, as well as the individual and social dimensions of ethics in nondual spirituality.
