Part one was last week, now Swami Ishwarananda's talk continues...the first, short one, is the completion of the actual talk; note how Swami-ji chants - it is all from memory! It is a discipline of those who study at gurukula to memorise all texts. Some of us fell very short in that skill.
The second video comes with a difference, that here you will now experience what it is to ask questions and have them answered by a master. Vedanta encourages questioning, be it simple or advanced. The questions themselves will indicate to the guru whether in fact the shishya was present in the class!!! The use of analogy and short stories are used to full effect in order to bring clarity. (The first two questions are a little 'hazy' but do persevere, for Swami-ji gives some excellence insight.)
