That is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing 🙏🌈🙏🌈🙏

These are excellent questions! I'll answer as best I can. To the first: you are everyone and everything already. Nothing is or can be outside your own awareness. Awareness is primary. It comes before experience. Everything is contained within your own awareness, not the other way around. What keeps us from fully experiencing that is the insistence that "I can only be me". Why do you accept that as axiomatic? Who are you anyway? You can only express some meager sounds and symbols to paint a picture of who you think you are. And no matter how detailed the picture, it's still not really you. The same goes for Jesus and your neighbor. They are just conceptual thought forms that temporarily appear in your awareness. As soon as you look away or think of something else, they're gone like a wisp of smoke. Even if you can see, touch, smell, hear your neighbor, the physical sensations are just interpretations by your brain that are build up into a story by your conditioned mind that seems coherent. Again, ultimately everyone and everything is just appearing momentarily in your awareness and is made of your awareness. So of course when you begin to get a taste of this experience it's very blissful. And yes, it's all love. Because everything is YOU. And of course you wind up feeling great love and affection for everyone and everything you encounter. Why don't all meditators have this experience even after many years? Honestly, I don't know. But some of it is because we continue to cling resolutely to the erroneous belief that we are separate individuals cut off from the world. If that's what we believe, that's what we'll experience. It's taken me two decades to even begin to get a taste of the true nature. Even after years as a monk, studying and practicing all day, I couldn't shake the idea of being a person (I'm still working on it). But I've just tried my best to follow the advice of my teachers and gurus (including the inner guru) who tell me, "Just keep going...you cannot fail!".

@@gatewaytothelimitless Thank you for that answer.

That's so kind of you to say! Thank you for watching 🙏🌈🙏🌈🙏

@@Davlavi thank you for watching!

Because most people (including myself for most of my life) have been habitually looking for outer conditions to make them happy. We can break that habit by realizing that we only ever experience happiness in our mind and awareness. This takes honest self-enquiry and practice. But it's doable!

Many people who experience some kind of catastrophic life event-whether a loss or health crisis-report that it brings them into a focused awareness of the present moment. At that time, everything kind of drops away and they feel a profound sense of peace. What's important isn't so much what they hoped for or thought they wanted out of life. The preciousness and perfection of simply being alive is experienced as the primary purpose of life itself. We can live in a state of constant dissatisfaction that life isn't meeting our demands if we wish. Or we can take a look inside and see if there's not something deeper and more meaningful going on. It's up to us.

@@gatewaytothelimitless How come I don't feel profound peace when I focus on the present moment then? Is focusing on the present moment the same thing as going inside or is there a distinction?

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. Blessings to you as well 🙏🌈🙏

Yes. I would say they always stop...at least for a brief moment. Just take a deep breath and try to anticipate or predict what your next thought is going to be. Be very alert, like a cat waiting at a mouse hole. Give it a try and let me know what you experience.

Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😊

What do you mean by "system"?

Please be open ....So first the idea you are not in control ... Please know that the god has control and we may plan something but God has different plan ...so here we are not in control .. So have you heard about this simulation model ? Please be open now imagine in Future we could.create AI models and this AI will almost control our life like God (please read book 1984 and new world order ) our brain our thoughts emotions and for that simulation we just become a player (it's very much possible ) Now this simulation would as this philosophy you don't have any control now what the system tries to do it starts adding lot of unpredictable events ..you planned this that happen ..this that ...hence you don't have any control ...life is unpredictable and life is temporary so just trust God . Now let's take back that scenarios you don't have control . Nope it's not truth we have control may be not toball but mostly it is ..this is how law of karma work ... Mostly you plan and it happens maybnw 2 out of 10 thinghs may not happen ...but with this AI the unpredictability would be multiplied many times (prime example of bad system and bad philosophy) Again by this logics the AI completly destroy you're freewill as you have no control ... Observe 25 to 30 years back people were planning working and it was happening suddenly massive burst of everything failing and this philosophy you don't control anything. Mostly we control but sometimes it's not but if the AI comes in picture God bless to you're freewill karma and the AI will add so much unpredicbilty . If you could observe nature you would see it's not .. I know hard to belive and comprehend butvthink deep and observe please .

The question is are we consciously choosing? Are you really choosing your thoughts? Can you predict what your next thought is going to be? Ultimately, everything we think, say, and do is (ordinarily) a matter of conditioning and habit. If that's true, are we really in "control"?

@@gatewaytothelimitless How do we then shift into a state of consciousness where we are consciously choosing instead of being run by conditioning or a program? Is it simply a matter of being deeply present for long enough or is presence only the first step and more is required in being able to consciously choose?

You're welcome! Thanks for tuning in!

I'm glad you found this video interesting...thanks for watching!

@@JaneNewAuthor thanks for watching!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

Thank you so much! Abundance is all there is! An experience of "lack" is simply a misunderstanding of how full and rich the Universe is ALL the time!

@@gatewaytothelimitless yes!

TH-cam puts ads on all videos on the platform unless you pay them a subscription.

@@JaneNewAuthor That is fantastic! This is exactly the kind of deep shift that is possible. Great work and keep going!

You are very welcome!

I love to hear that! So glad you find it helpful and thanks for watching!

I agree. So deep.

Thanks for watching and letting me know about the ads. Wish I could keep YT from showing them 😢

You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!

You're so welcome! Thank you for watching!

I know 😢 Unfortunately there’s nothing I can do about that. You have to pay for a premium TH-cam subscription to avoid the ads 😭

@@gatewaytothelimitless That is not the truth. As the uploader of the video YOU decide how many ads are in THE MIDDLE of a video.

Let me know how you enjoy it!

I'm so glad to hear it's useful! Yes, it's such an easy and powerful practice. I use it as well. Thanks for watching and I look forward to hearing more about your journey :)

So wonderful! Yes, meditation is life-changing!

Yes, I should have mentioned that you ask permission before doing this with humans 😂😂

@@gatewaytothelimitless Thank God you don't have to ask the trees, dogs and cats for permission to stare. They are so accepting and chill. 😂 But some trees might feel uncomfortable if the human is thinking of chopping them down.
