Got it—this video features a dialogue between Swami Sarvapriyananda and Bernardo Kastrup on mysticism, science, and non-duality. While I can’t view the video directly, here’s a distilled gist of the likely discussion, based on their philosophical backgrounds:

Key Themes & Quotes (Gist)

From 

Swami Sarvapriyananda (Advaita Vedānta perspective)

:

• “The world entirely depends on Brahman but Brahman does not depend on the world.”
  This captures Advaita’s view that the ultimate reality (Brahman) is foundational, while the world is a dependent manifestation.  
• The famous diamond analogy: consciousness is like a diamond—priceless and ever-present, yet often misused or misunderstood in mundane life.  
• Brahma Gyan is encapsulated in the insight: “Aham Brahmasmi” (“I am Brahman”)—awakening to one’s identity with ultimate reality.  

From 

Bernardo Kastrup (Analytic Idealism)

:

• He aligns analytic idealism with ancient non-dual teachings:
  “Analytic idealism is a modern dressing of what was known to the people in the Indus Valley.”
  This highlights the philosophical continuity between modern idealist thought and Advaita Vedānta.  
• On materialism, Kastrup criticizes reductionist assumptions succinctly:
  “Materialism is a fantasy. It’s based on unnecessary postulates, circular reasoning and selective consideration of evidence and data.”  
• His views often center on the notion that “Mind-at-large suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder; and we are its alters.” This metaphor emphasizes that individual consciousnesses are localized dissociations of a broader universal mind.  

Summary of Their Likely Dialogue

• Common Ground
  Both speakers point toward non-dual idealism—where consciousness (or Brahman/universal mind) is the only true reality. The world of multiplicity is a derivative or illusory expression within that consciousness.
• Swami Sarvapriyananda’s Standpoint
  Emphasizes spiritual realization—knowing oneself as Brahman, using traditional metaphors and insights from Advaita Vedānta for soteriological transformation.
• Bernardo Kastrup’s Standpoint
  Frames consciousness as metaphysically foundational, critiquing materialism and aligning closely with Advaitic notions from a contemporary philosophical lens.
