I really appreciate your videos, I am so relieved to be reminded of how the ego projects into the future. I am in a place filled with worries for the future. Your words about being present, so that we can respond to life with balance, are very wise and well timed for me. Thank you

Too noisy a background. Can't hear your voice...

Thank you for your way of explaining this topic.

One could say this woman has been extremely overthinking and unfortunately caused herself a lot of stress. I would have hope some close friends might have help ground herself

Thank you for the insightful messages. Simple yet so transformative ❤✨

🙂❤👍✌💯

Vedas say Nethi Nethi Nethi Not This Not This ...one step further Not Merely This ....I thnk at some point we become speechless 🎉

This really helped ❣... Is it the ego that struggles when i dont meditate? because it tells me that if you dont meditate then how will you ascend...

Could you please link the original video?

BEING : Be in God [Spirit I AM - of God] : born into time as this Human Being : "Be humane in God's grace" .. so, Be in Grace & Gratitude for Being Awake in the heart on earth. the alternative is Being lost in personalities and mental, ego-based narratives, also known as momentary alternatives, aka lies and personal opinions presented as identities' truth.

This is his best video.

Wonderful, thank you

Recien hoy entendi el significado de I AM !!!! gracias por poner esta meditacion Rupert es mi maestro a seguir ,muchas gracias por tu trabajo !!!!!

Consciousness is not the same as the unborn. It's not the end stage, so to speak. Just like everything else consciousness arises and ceases.

Thank you 🙏🏻 with metta ❤

🙂❤👍✌💯

the subtitels are way of. For example, instead of "Pali" the software translated to "Poly," and worse, "Conciousness" is translated to "Content," and there are scores more. For beginners, this could be dangerously misleading. If this great master's dharma talk will be reproduced here the youtube statation owner should ensure correct subtitles. Thanks!

Personally I do not believe in non-duality.

"Purifying the mind", at what point does mind become purified 😅

If the apple tree is apple(ing), and the earth is people(ing), perhaps by extension we could say the universe is planet(ing). It all really is non-dual, there is no separation. Thankyou for this!

Very grateful for his clear instructions.

Transcendence is a temporary seeing through or dropping away 17:31 ego: a process; the act of self-obsession or concern; “me” 22:06 self: the unseen subject or witness of all experiences and perceptions; “I” 36:44 four steps to experiencing no self

An illusion shouldn’t be defined as something that’s not real or doesn’t exist. It’s something that really exists in one way, but is perceived in a different way. A mirage is a real physical phenomenon caused by heated air. The illusion happens when it’s perceived as something else, like water. From the absolute perspective, everything is illusory. From the relative perspective, it’s all real. They’re two sides of the same coin, and both are useful. Without the absolute perspective we will always be unsatisfied. Without the relative perspective we wouldn’t even survive.

This was very helpful. Thank you for sharing your experience. 🙏 The three phases of awakening really resonate with me. I feel like I’m currently shifting from the second to the third and making the transition from mind to heart-based experience.

It seems like the initial awakening is about seeing that you aren’t the thoughts that arise in consciousness. A sense of self as the witness/consciousness/awareness itself often remains. Eventually, that sense of the self as pure awareness is seen to be just another arising in awareness. There is no separation between awareness and its contents.

The sense of self as pure awareness is just another arising in awareness. (How else could it be experienced?) It appears that there are only arisings in awareness and no self to be found anywhere.

Is “letting go” the same as The Unteathered Soul? Staying open, letting it pass through? Have read both books. Trying to do it properly. Thank you.

I have a question. The sanskripts were written 400 years after the death of the buddha. How can we be sure that is what Sidarta said at the time??

Dr. MindFullness? Huh interesting..

Best meditation video I've encountered. I can really see and understand awakening principles I've read and seen elsewhere in a more concrete way.

Like when a rain drop hits the open sea...i bow deeply ajahn sumedho...tangling eyebrows with buddah...u bring us home...in the present moment...here and now...thank you... 🙏💮🙏

Thank you, my question in regards. when we sit to meditate and we do not feel any negative emotions at that specific time, should we bring in a negative emotion from the past and face as described in the book?

Sincere thanks to Ajahn,Sumedho for helping me to overcome my attachment to my spiritual views that causes me suffering.His talks released me from my suffering.😊🙏🫶

This simply can’t be taught or learned. It cannot be understood with the mind. It’s “energetic” and there is nobody to do anything about that.

I listen to Ajahn Sumedho every day of my life. Because of him, my life became not so confusing. Anicca Dukkha Anatta. He read the Sutta with the words - 'Open are the doors to the deathless ... its the Pali chant after the Namo Tassa chant to the Buddha, before he gives a Dhamma talk ... it's about the the unborn, uncreated, unformed 🙏🙏🙏 He is so direct that those still 'with a little dust in their eyes' will not see. As the Buddha said, this is a practice that takes a long time. Edit - interestingly what I had said above Ajahn Sumedho has just discussed in the latest video today on the Amaravati TH-cam channel of the 40th Anniversary as Amaravati means 'the deathless' - its the 40th Anniversary of Amaravati video 🙏

. . . Ah . . . ✨

I think everyone has experienced no ego or separate self many times, and it just wasn’t that big of a deal. If you’ve ever “lost yourself” in a book or a movie, or been “in the flow”, where it seemed like your body was on autopilot and was just doing its thing with no “you” controlling anything, then guess what. That was the experience of no separate self. Congratulations! On the flip side, make a mistake in front of an audience and you’ll quickly become very conscious of your self, i.e., self-conscious. Once you’ve seen that the sense of self comes and goes, it becomes easier and easier to see through the illusion.

Imagination is really powerful this is why Children's have higher vibration

Thank you! 🙏🙏🩷🩷🩷🩷

If he condemns, criticises and ridicules the spiritual leaders (those of whom are truly good and have immense knowledge) I wonder if he knows where he himself has acquired this knowledge he says he there to impart providing for a 'turn-around'. He is aspiring for recognition and status and of course everything else that comes with it....

This talk motivates me to stay present. Thank you 🙏

What a beautiful explanation of the I AM! A bridge between the Awareness and experience; a door that opens to the manifest or to the infinite; the witness that can identify with experience or detach and not take the phenomenon too seriously (as if a dream in sleep). Wonderful!

❤❤🌏❤❤

🙂❤👍✌💯 Excellent explanation! I am still at the stage of being trapped in a cycle of suffering by the ego regrets of the past, dissatisfaction with the present, self-rejection and fears of the future, while seeking to control experience in order to avoid pain, and then blaming myself instead of forgiving. Seems like a universal pattern. NIce to know there is a way out!.

🙂❤👍👍👍✌💯

Is the quality of happiness after getting an object is the same as what we get after the separate self is no more? Just that the happiness because of the object does not last forever?

🙂😎👍✌

Sir, one of my friend whose relative is a monk says that one has to give up material life to attain nirvana/ moksha as the relationships lead to distraction Is it true?
