I always thought I recently started freaking about death but any time I bring it up my dad says I’ve always talked like this. I’m still extremely young and have nothing to lose but the fact that one day my grandparents will die, my parents will die, my idols will die, my pets will die, and I will die haunts me. Thank you Saja , I will always love your videos.
Thank you for the comment my friend! I assure you this fear will dissolve 🫶 just make sure to not stop watching my videos 😉 kidding. Have a beautiful day!
That was terrific! What a beautiful teaching that I really needed to hear/listen to this morning! Thank you, I got my “Saja dose” for the day!! For what it’s worth, you put a smile on my face! I needed that! ❤🙏
I would just like you to know, your insight and higher reasoning had and has such profound impact on me as I experience it. I hear myself saying things like the here is a pathway to the beyond and now is expanding into the infinite, while knowing all suffering would simply be resistance to my experience.I LOVE it. :D I also watched your awakeningstory and oh my, I experienced a few of your experiences and thought I encountered ultimate suffering so Thank you for enlightening me in so many ways and even though your story made me reflect a lot, I feel lighter and lighter integrating the wisdom of your tangible experience of life.Thank you, your guidance is heartfelt 🙏
I miss you too man. I hope you're well, I hope the family's well. Real hero shit. I'm proud of you man, this is really, really good material. Hope I get to see you again one day. Be well.
I agree there's no need to fear anything without it happening. Even now I say things like "I fear a painful death" or "I fear hurting others" but I also say "fear" is way too strong a word, maybe "mild concern" is more apt. But in the past, this fear would be felt concretely: I've had cycles of fearful thoughts stuck in my head with my heart beating fast, future tripping over some possibility that hasn't happened yet. It's just imagination. I still have it arise now and then* but there's the recognition that right now I am happy and content and there's no danger but I recognise this thought wants to be expressed. *especially if I drink caffeine the night before, then I wake up anxious dreading some bad news, but then something pulls me back and makes me realise I am ensconced safely in my bed. A lot of the times it's like "let's see what the universe has in store today" but sometimes it is a good news day and sometimes it is bad news day (terrorist attack, etc.) that brings out the empathy. These news things, nothing we can do anyway unless we can (volunteer). Then there can be personal news that can be good and/or bad, I celebrate a bit and/or grieve. I take it all with lightness, this too shall pass. I don't know if that's avoidance or equanimity but I am okay with it. In these cases also I feel the emotion strongly but then some kind of recognition takes place about its impermanence, and sometimes also recognition it's a thought just happening on its own, and that identification with it causes suffering.
Your best video to date 💫 The fear of non existent I’m fine with that. ‘I just don’t want to run out of pickles in my pickle jar!’ Can i use your quote on my head stone please 🙏
Saja, yes these are my fears for letting go. And that's part of what I'm afraid of is the going insane part, I can't afford to go insane right now, I'm supporting 3 people...
the foothold should be in the absolute I, yet it is so terrifying to let go of the ego attachment and the sense of this ephemeral self. Funny analogy comes into my mind. It is like trying not to drown while forcefully holding upon water. relying upon this fake sense of control and a pillar. realising this yet being so attached to trying not to drown. p.s. my brother once had a horror dream where he was a fork dancing on the table. lmfao. I mean it is scary to accept that you are not what you think you are and then the floor under your feet starts disappearing.
Funny, I had a lucid dream once of being an ape or gorilla ! Yet it was "me" I was aware of a gutteral sound in my throat and the feeling of wet mud under my feet. Also once of being a wolf, lolloping alongside another wolf, yet it was the same "me" or "I" as I am now. ! Thank you.
Hello Saja, great insights, I would like to know your insights on people who commit suicide as a result of their unbearable fear/despair/anger towards life.. The idea that fear of death is the farthest you can get but isn't a suicidal death a waste of a great life, obviously they are reincarnated but was that "life" a stepping stone for their reincarnated life? Isn't that life precious too like anyone else's? It feel so weirdly unfortunate to think someone is taking their life due to the fear & despair.. Can u do a video about it? It feels so sad and heartwrenching to realize people are taking their lives. As myself I know perosnally people who have taken their life, and as a person who has gone through life from the time i remember at the unimaginable lowest of vibrations and a severe wishing/cursing if was never born/existed, along with this the fear of these suicidal idea of others, it's like will I be at a point in life where fear will pull me/take control of myself into these acts.. Even though I have never even tried a little attempt to suicide and even when I know I will never do it.. But the fear of loosing the control to emotions and it takes you to places of darkness where u fly around like a dust without a stand or rest, with severe unexplainable anger/rage,hate towards the self for putting through this pain&fear, I hope u understand
People who are suicidal are infact in the midst of the experience of non existence and they kill thensleves in an attempt to relieve themselves from that belief that they do not exist. They intuit that whatever happens once their body is relived of the belief will be liberating. I will make a video soon. Thanks for the idea :)
The ego tells us this is "life". How do we know what comes after doesn't feel more alive, more real? We live under the cover of forgetfulness. When the curtain of this world is peeled back we may find it sublime.
And how to avoid falling into nihilism and losing individuality? It's disappointing. It makes me think I can't do anything. How to act in the world when you are not your body and mind?
i don’t quite comprehend yet: what is this non-duality thing about? i pretty much learnt everything i could a year ago, but i still don’t know how to implement it in day-to-day life.
If you still don’t know how to implement into daily life then you may aswell know nothing. My community and free sessions are there if you like. Videos alone won’t suffice 🙏
It's about your own game part, nothing else. From a management perspective you shouldn't have made yourself irreplaceable. You could have created a city or some corporations where all of your ideas continue. Most people are irresponsible of dying. It's a 100% outcome. At least leave some instructions. The government have some of it covered, but not in a nice way..... It should be more like a celebration because we get 0 taxed after the 30% hit and we get a conversation with the real government and probably the best job ever in some kind of heavenly setup with perks all over.

This means a lot, the smile is the only important thing. Thank you Greg :) 🙏
Yes agree.sense of self is all pervading ever after the body is no more Great thought

Struggling to put the name without the face?? Give me a hint 😂🙏
Deeply appreciate this comment my friend thanks you so much 🫶🙏
Thank you so much❤❤❤
My pleasure! 🫶
For years I have this quote (don’t know who it’s from): the loss of self (identity), both our deepest desire and our greatest fear.
Haha very true!
Great video, what i always wonder is why everyone thinks death is something bad and to be avoided, it's like you say it's the fear
Yes absolutely 🙏 thanks for the comment!

The fear of non existent
I’m fine with that.
‘I just don’t want to run out of pickles in my pickle jar!’
Can i use your quote on my head stone please 🙏
Hahaha glad you enjoyed the video my friend thank you for the comment and yes absolutely 😉😂🙏
Saja, yes these are my fears for letting go. And that's part of what I'm afraid of is the going insane part, I can't afford to go insane right now, I'm supporting 3 people...
Yes but you’re not actually going to go insane.
the foothold should be in the absolute I, yet it is so terrifying to let go of the ego attachment and the sense of this ephemeral self.

p.s.
my brother once had a horror dream where he was a fork dancing on the table. lmfao. I mean it is scary to accept that you are not what you think you are and then the floor under your feet starts disappearing.
Yes you’re right! There is a process of accepting the implications of our true nature even after we know it. It can still be hard to let go.
Thank you
Funny, I had a lucid dream once of being an ape or gorilla ! Yet it was "me" I was aware of a gutteral sound in my throat and the feeling of wet mud under my feet. Also once of being a wolf, lolloping alongside another wolf, yet it was the same "me" or "I" as I am now. ! Thank you.
I love me, Saja!
I love you too!
Very nice, you explain the essence of nondualty so well without using sanskrit words.
I appreciate it brother 🙏
Don’t fear death but the living experiance of dying is far greater.

You should google
The Dark Night Of The Soul.
It a rough journey
Good luck

It's the same thing in the end :D But for me it's the fear that i lose the capacity or ability to experience. :)
i don’t quite comprehend yet: what is this non-duality thing about? i pretty much learnt everything i could a year ago, but i still don’t know how to implement it in day-to-day life.

Jajajaja I thought I was just getting crazy😢
Haha nope 😉
Sarcophagus Esophagus.
Damn this sounds intense what is it??
Sarcophagus Esophagus = sounds like it might be 'swallowing death'

Sooo …. Just relax then . Ok . 👌
