- This interview was done by Sabina with Lisa Cairns in January 2014 near Munich (Jetzt-TV, Lisa Cairns, Interview01).
The end of suffering; not knowing; life appearing out of who knows what; no boundaries; no control; no boundaries between perceptions and their ends; not anyone can understand; thought puts interpretations on top of the sensations which happen in the boundless space; no you or I in the massive amount of appearances; all suffering comes from the made up person which is based on assumptions; not knowing who we are; no ability of letting go; fighting falls away; everything is unknowable; the drama around the assumption of a free will; where do the thoughts come from?; everything is spontaneously appearing from nothing; the programming of the body; the problems starts when it is taken personally; prior to language there was just action happening; with language it began to be taken to who entities; these entities became stronger and stronger; societies which have the strongest emphasis on individuality seem to have the highest depression rates; thoughts should be spontaneously appearing instead of being biased by the believe in the entity and its story in time; entities seem to be programmed to avoid silence -- which is like death; the impulse of doing what one wants to do is in lala-land; not knowing what one wants to do; never finding the perfect place of doing what one wants to do; no you who could do anything; life is messy but beautiful; everything is free to appear or disappear; no longer "you have to be like this"; the boundless wonder and freedom as the me dissolves; everything is screaming this presence and enlightenment; society seems to be teaching individuality and beliefs of not being good enough; the essence of everything is love; the relationship between male and female; no individual soul; karma is mainly cause and effect and there is a lot of confusion about karma in "spiritual" circles; all is here now; the actual experience is that all appears from who knows what.
1. @24:00 silence and what it is- absolutely comes alive here...the apparent me effortlessly dissolves into a sweet joy listening to what's being shared here. Resonant energy!
2. @29:18 This is always THE very difficult thing for the 'me' to accept ; how to accpet aparent evil / abuse/violence upon inniocents? Somehow the answer " it's all conceptual" or "there's no one doing it or being done to" is hard to accpet as just another happening and love it as the same life force energy ...is the hardest 'me' story to let go of.
Love Lisa Cairns. She's intelligent, compassionate, authentic and a first class non dual speaker ✌
I always appreciate watching Lisa. She knows what she knows, which she understands is nothing. How refreshing to see a teacher admit this. She's like watching a lovely and well balanced dance between the relative and the absolute.
Amazing how much people think she is just pretending because she is a) good- looking b) moving like a young good- looking woman, doing her hair or whatever.
If it is about "the truth", the guy has to look serious, speak like "A teacher", slowly, meaningful.
She is fresh and natural in her way, relaxed and just how she is. Her words are certainly refreshing and relaxed. Very good message.
Bernhardt Hess I completely agree :-) A lot of projection and a fair amount of misogyny. I find Lisa spontaneous, eager and very natural! If anything she plays down her good looks. Unfortunately, most people can't see beyond them to hear what she is saying. Maybe they should step away from the screen?
I agree and she also doesn't smile constantly, sugar coat her words and call the questioner "sweetheart" all the time :)
Bernios, you wouldn't believe this but I Sooo nearly didn't click on her because she wasn't a bearded man in a robe with beads! It was a split second decision and it was my forefinger on the mouse that made the decision, not me! So glad it did! I had never heard of nonduality before this. Amazing!
Wow!! She's Wonderful! She's not lying, she's not repeating what other's have said.She's trying to describe the Undescribable!
She has had a glimpse. She is trying to help.
Excellent - thank you!
Wow ! Brilliant ! This was at a whole different level. This was like being throw a bucket of water on my face to experience water instead of listening to a lecture on H2O !
I am 18 and Lisa saved me from all the bullshit that I would be going to believe just like my parents did they still struggle and I participate in that but inside I know its a game but they think its serious.
She is not a "Polished Performer". She is a real human being trying to Reveal Something to you! Here, everything becomes a Commodity, a product, a form of Entertainment for the Ego, for the Masses!! Very Few actually listen!
You are so beautiful. I am watching this from Belarus after a 6-week journey to Rishikesh and feeling very strong resonance with what you're saying. Thank you!
I like Lisa's innocent and childlike excited smile.
Thats not what this is about. I am not convinced by her.
Great interview, for me it’s such a tricky subject to get your head around but the interviewer asked very straight direct questions which made it much easier for me to understand. Much love and thank you for sharing.. ❤️🙏🏻
Truly lovely ♥️
Thank you!
It all goes without knowing so.
I can see the unbound beauty of this mess in Lisa's eyes, kindled of joy and innocence and everything that appears.
Duality with its singularity is what all lifes vibrations are made of. It s impossible to be only the singularity without the duality. For they are one in the same. Each is within the other as the creator and the creation. To embrace all three is oneness and harmony. A better term is,- Non-separateness.
Thank you Lisa for breaking the boundaries of saying what cannot be said. This is it! We attempt to think in language - we attempt to communicate in language and it really is all gibberish!
The word is not!
The faces that are occurring during this are quite fascinating
Wow. This is truly amazing. Thank you.
I enjoyed the interview. Particularly liked how Lisa caught the joker "I" popping up and trying to control stuff at around 29:00
Sit back relax take it easy. enlightenment is when your to worn out to go on any further so you just sit back and watch the world go by. let the children play.
Lisa expresses the feminine aspect of awakening. It's the receiver not the doer. Her message is so sweet, silly, and childlike. It is so obvious "I" can't be in charge. It is so wonderful, she makes me laugh at how serious I've taken everything.
So awesome, Lisa. Well said. There is an understanding here of the pause at the beginning. It is like a few moments to let remnants of the "I" to die down or subside (it seems like). This....is amazing.
Or recollecting data for purposes of communication about This 🤔 .•°
I like her!!
Thank you Lisa for thought beyond words beyond concepts and for being..

I didn't understand even a single sentence of what she spoke..but very well understood what Sri Nasargadatta Maharaj said.
Could be cultural?
Im very GLAD there are all these new teachers emerging.... Im soo much less judgemental towards them then what I use to be ;)
amazing comments below. She seems so genuine and real to me. She is obviously living an awakened being. I soooo enjoy this video!!! Learned alot.
Wow, i really enjoyed that, Thank you very much !! I cant believe it, but I actually get what she says every now and then! Its very interesting how it challenges everything ! have to watch more of her words
She's beautiful
lovely, a refreshing voice for non dual thanks
''Thoughts say ''i'm in a body'' which is just an interpretation not the reality'' mind = blown
Beautiful Beingness - boundless - infinite - thank you!
She's the real deal! I really enjoy her :-)
Lisa for President :)))
Nice to see a woman talking about non-duality, while it is not nonsense. She is very direct. I like that. And funny too!
Thank you for this clarifying conversation.
Words are not simply sounds but sounds with meaning. Words doen't appear by them selves but there is an agent behind them.
Of course the agent of words can be a stupid or an intelligent one. A stupid speaks a lot mechanically and compulsively without to communicate anything important at all. On the contrary a wise speaks a little and consciously and for the benefit of others.
My favorite part…is the Silence. When she stops speaking and just 'IS'. Even though there is Silence when she is speaking…I feel it huge when she stops using words and communicates volumes with "SILENCE".
I see in all these comments the usual prejudices but nothing of value. So a woman needs to be ugly and disheveled? Only the "experts" are qulified to walk up and talk about it? Ramana Why don't you come down to earth!! The real thing is not the" easy way out" but the hard one, the honest work and no illusions.
Although I have the tendency to be a skeptic, I think she is great!
After a profound spiritual Awakening it is so difficult to explain to others what it is that you have realized. Like trying to explain what colors are to one who is blind!
I agree 100% with you.. ❤️🙏🏻
she is having fun, like it immensely, of course, not right on at times but overall stream fun and living. her motive is good, purely good. never complete truth but just a layer of explanation. non-duality: we all are in relationship, sth in the stimulus response interval. she never asks her questioner what she is seeing. it is ego-centered, a good try...respect the search.
Listen. Every thought is just an idea, until you believe it. Then it manifests in the body as the body and senses. eveything is watched. by I
She is very simple and direct. She is very Real! I find it amusing how very critical some of the male comments are. Very personal and subjective, and judgmental of her as a person. I think that these guys have an unconscious bias against her because she's an attractive young blonde female. These fellows have an image, an idea in their minds of what an Awakened person should look and sound like. They are not being attentive to all of their own mental image making and egoic reactions to her. There is a lot of unconscious programming going on here!
this is pure love
There is something that is aware - We can say I am aware of movement which we call Life - Or there is Awareness.
I know she's talking the truth because she made me feel like shit lol
Her talk stirred the fuck out of my ego, and I could experience a whole lot of bad sensations and negative emotions.
The "ego projection" does not want to be confronted with ideas that would entail its dissolution.
This lady seems very very highly strung to the extent one cannot feel concerned.
As mass awakening settles in and group conciousness develops, this Tony Parsons-type guru will vanish, they are mainly sharing what appears in the field of their conciousness and sharing their enthusiasm, nothing else, only You know what's best for You.
Very well explained.
Freedom is not FOR the self, but FROM the self.
No self, no problem.
What is self?
It's like I'm back in a dormroom having a joint with a chick in 1970!🤣
Loving sabina's interviews!
There was a resonance here that led to the thought that the strength of unknowing overcame the strength of the know-er and it's knowing.
paul w I don’t know what Advaita Vedanta is. Are you over thinking it?
"A Voice Crying in the Wilderness!"
People are not Actually Aware of what their experience in the present moment is! Thought is never in the reality of now, of What Is!
imho the problem with modern non-duality is that the speakers confuse people with their explanations. They try to convey awakening but then get tied up by their own words and are always hitting the glass ceiling of their own inability to communicate it. They say that this is because it is inherently difficult to convey or that words are dualistic or can't get there. But then they have no other means and so they keep on for hours with the confusing intellectualisation.
The listeners are unsurprisingly confused by the words and usually feel that they can't quite get there but have no means or tools to get there because this would imply they are not there already and so are still seeking. And so the game of listening to non duality teachers whilst hoping/trying/waiting for the seeking to stop of its own accord goes on, usually for years with no results. This is a harsh reality that is never addressed by the non dual communicators because, as they freely admit, they don't care, and anyway they are ok because they are not in the muddle, it's your problem. It's ok for them that its your problem because they believe that there is no you - so no problem. However for the listener it is very frustrating and far from liberating.
The joke is that what is sought, the ease and fullness, let's call it Being- is always present and no amount of seeking, not seeking, self, no self, confusion, no confusion can make it go away. It is a constant. It is you and it isn't separate from you so nothing needs to change for it to be seen, the seeking does not need to stop, nor does the self need to drop, or contraction stop. All of those things desirable and undesirable are Being and so are included.
The reason it isn't seen is simply because we are habituated to live in the stories of the mind and we follow the thoughts and emotions, ups and downs, as if they were real and separate. And so our focus is on the ever changing appearances and not on the source of these appearances which is Being. The appearances are inseparable from Being and so do not need to change, all that needs to happen is to notice Being that is inseparable from what appears.
Now the secret that non dual teachers don't know is that there is something you can do- right now- that will make Being perfectly obvious to you. They don't like it because it doesn't fit into the non dual logic (as if reality was bound by their measly logic rules)-they will say that the 'me' that does it get's reinforced by the doing and so invalidates it. But this is wrong - the 'me' that does it is also Being and so is included. Remember you are it and even when the me drops there isn't nothing but everything and You are this everything - so don't get caught up in non dual definitions and confusions about you. The you we are talking about is here now, always has been and always will be.
So all you need to do is pause your thought stories for a split second. And then you can see that there is aliveness, cognisance, openness, Beingness, undeniable. And that's it folks. Yes that simple. Then of course the thoughts start right back up, but there is nothing stopping you from noticing it again, and you don't even need to stop thinking then you just notice the aliveness and cognisance inseparable from what is going on.
The trick is that Beingness is always available but if you try to make it a permanent state then you end up in confusion because you can't contrive it. But you don't need to contrive it, you just need to notice it freshly again and again, as much as you want, no need to hold on to it just notice it again briefly.
Now it doesn't matter what non dual teachers will say that this emphasise the me or other non existent problems that they dream up, because your experience of this is authentic, it can't be otherwise and you can't get in the way. Unless you believe in their logic. And that's the problem they offer a logic and the belief in it is very limiting and will stop you from experiencing reality.
So now you know what it is you can gradually get to know it more and more, little by little and it will become more and more obvious. And then you won't need to listen to them explain it to you whilst you have no clue what it is they are talking about, because you will know it for yourself.
Honestly many people listen to these teachers and believe that they are the problem with their little me and that they can do nothing about it because this reinforces the me and so they listen for years not having a clue what it's about. It's a logic trap. And yet it is so simple to know it for yourself. You are it and you are the solution and not the problem (as they will tell you).
Being is you, not some separate entity that decides when it wants the self to drop. You are Being and there is nothing stopping you from fully realising it and bringing it fully into your life. Unless of course you buy into the confusing logic that says that you can't do anything about it and you are helpless and at the mercy of Being- as if Being was a cold hearted God. Silliness!
So do it and don't believe the limiting non dual intellectual logic.
Spot on - study the 4 foundations of mindfulness and it gives you some practical traction to get on with your own journey without this endless description of their experience - more prescription less description please
learnt more from you then her
There’s room for this too. I don’t see how Lisa’s swearing is any different in nature from Nisargadatta’s smoking, or his frequent outbursts of anger.
ich finde nondualität voll cool
If you are reading this, take this into consideration! Through your observation, if you see a flaw in my understanding the please do point it out, I would appreciate hearing your own point of view! Thanks in advance.
I cannot grasp why still, so many of us are still debating these two inherently non-dual yet still dualistic questions! This debate is fully paradoxical in its nature, they are opposite yet they are without a doubt connected and point in the same direction - how has no one realised this yet?
Well, to put it simply, if you see truth in non-duality you are therefore using your ego, right? If non duality at its core is about abolishing the ego and experiening that which connects all without egoic bounds, then why even choose to be a part of this debate in the first place when it is ego driven? On the other hand, if you see truth in duality, you probably celebrate the ego and its key role in the self, human individuality and the variation in the universe/creation istelf but you do not realise that it is this individuality which ultimately connects us all.
Yes there are opposites to everything in nature but everything is inherently connected! Art can be defined as anything, whether directly related or not, it is still art.
God/higher consciousness could be a separate entity but if all life and matter is seen as a manifestation of it, then still, everything is connected, all still has the same deep connection at a core level. Both of these are one in the same, existing within the same realm but are still opposite realities. My only answer to this is that there is no one or the other - it is what it is.
I have experienced my higher self/god/universal consciousness once before. All aspects of my physical being were stripped away, the I which once was, was completely shattered and non existent. Time did not exist alongside this. There was only my true higher self/inner being and everything else around me. I was not it yet I saw myself in i and it within myself, an experience I cannot fathom in words. I was pure love and acceptance for all things and felt the love within all things but I still realised the difference and variance in all existence. I was only personality, a totally unique manifestation of something greater than me, yet I was experiencing it at the same time. At no point did I ever consider 'duality vs non-duality?' as even being possible.
This experience is still incomprehensible to me right now as I am not experiencing it, I can only draw from my reference to it as an observation in order to try and paint a picture for you. We do not have the ability to fully comprehend anything which is greater than us at this moment in time, after all we are still here confined as a human being - it is important to remember this.
We need to achieve a level of respect, acceptance and love for all differences in existence and be able to see the yin and yang in all views and angles of perception by bringing them together to form one uniform understanding. Then there would be no need to have such trivial debates such as this.
If I need to clarify a point in this, please do not hesitate to ask or as I said above please do point out a flaw in my understanding. Bliss:-)
The answer is in the silence between the words.If we can stretch that silence,we realise the paradox of time and timelessness.That brings us into the present moment.No past,no future.This creates freshness in everything we do.Even drinking water,every sip becomes the first sip.
"Holy fuck." What holy babble !
I would say that this "philosophy" ("nothing is important", "I don't know anything",...) is quite dangerous, specially for people who are already suffering and want an easy way out. Problems have to be understood and solved; saying that "there is not problem,..., only things appearing" is just something illogical. I know a guy who a had a terrible psychotic episode because of playing with this westernized non-duality stuff and not dealing with his real problems, as he himself recognized afterwards.
this is advaita vedanta teaching buddha learnt this called it nirvana which is consciousness to end suffering from disease poverty to teach ppl who cant do actions this should be practiced once you have earned for your life i mean you have done your duty towards family or once you reached age of 45 ,50 age so no disease can harm you or make you suffer till that you have to do your karma bhagvad gita gives the way of life properly including this yoga i mean what she is telling not suited as a student or worker
That is exactly right. But it does not mean that this "philosophy", as you call it, is harmful per se. There is an absolutely wonderful book on this topic. It is called "Transformations of Consciousness: Conventional and Contemplative Perspectives On Development". It explains how ideas of absence of self might be harmful for individuals with certain developmental problems.
Thanks for the recommendation, is a topic I am interested in.
I love the concepts on nothingness or ideas like emptiness, as the TAO TE KING describe it, as an opposition to compulsively living. My problem is when it turns into repression of our emotional reality or living irresponsibly .
You make a really good point. This stuff is used as a way to bypass dealing with problems because it is understood intellectually for most that there is no one with a problem. But the problems don't go away but lurk. The sane way to deal with problems is that as they arise to let them and to see that our open, stable nature is untouched by them,In this way they all can be allowed and not stuffed away or denied. Ultimately everything is faced square on.But it takes time and when we see that our problems don't have the hold we thought they did we are greatly relieved and see that we can solve all our problems without needing to deny them or ourselves.
Beautifully said. Life is, every moment. The only thing saying "but it shouldn't be" is the mind. These unchosen thoughts arise unbidden, and the resistance continues as long as it is believed in. When it is seen for what it is - the mind resisting what is, the belief in the story is seen to be false, and the story drops away by itself, without having to be understood, enacted, or corrected. But, and it is a big but, this isn't the same as believing that there is no one with a problem, while simultaneously buying into the story.
If you are believing anything, you aren't there yet.
Wonderful 🙏
And now, in this time period, we are experiencing an unprecedented phenomena more contradictory; more mysterious than all of the false prophets of the ages, from the ritualistic to the post-modern. I present to you: The fully enlightened, yet critical and disgusted youtube commenters. Feast your eyes on their wisdom.
It's interesting to hear and watch the Absolute (Lisa) responding to the limited and confused questions and statements from the separated, individual (Sabina) who doesn't hear or get anything that the Absolute is saying. I'd ask Lisa way different questions and then LISTEN more. The benefit, to me at least, is to have an even deeper grasp of the Vast Silence in action and It's simple yet mysterious message about what is and about Being, so I deeply appreciate this interview and all that was said here. :) This
I kind of wish there was more of that 'Vast Silence' coming from the 'Absolute' (Lisa) instead of all those words.
I think most people miss the point. It’s not to escape the ego; you never can, it’s biologically wired into you. The point of these eastern philosophies is to make you realize that you are not an independent separate entity put into this world by something. That you are more than simply the ego, which is an idea born from various factors, biologic and social. It’s trying to help you overcome your suffering while making you more selfless so that others suffering can be reduced. Good day.
13:23 => Lisa´s core "teaching" compressed into ONE sound ;-) The ultimate reality is really UNSPEAKABLE....
Well there was a time that I was launched into not knowing today and tomorrow. That's where she is....on a free journey. Nice.
I like it when she says "fuck" LOL:-)
this beautiful body decluttered from the sense of personnal doership trying to describe the unknowable saying fuck... it's just so spontaneously innocent !
It's probably a calculated response for effect.
Yes she is fun!
Who is the "she" that is saying 'fuck'?
John Doe That part of herself she continues to deny.
Holy Fuck!
You are what is having the thought of you
People study the teachings of J. Krishnamurti. Mankind is identifying Consciousness with thought. We do not look, do not live in the reality of Life. We live in our thoughts and beliefs about reality. Few of you are even aware of this fact.
Is Lisa really the most sensible person to be guiding young male seekers towards the end of Desire?!
Definitly, she will constantly confront them with their own desire and that's the best way to dry them out ;)
"I am an average TH-cam comment writer that knows more about Non-duality and has the capability to judge her."
ha ha ha love this ^
Wait, you can't judge her 'cause you're not here and you're not you and you're just free radicals moving involuntary in this now that's not here
Gabby free radicals don’t exist :)
The heart knows what's genuine. But cognitive dissonance tricks the self.
Awakened Soul I'm a free radical!
Lisa is one of the very few speakers who doesn't appeal to the intellect at all. Nor do the Zen Koans. Paying bills happens as naturally as putting on lipstick. This happens even without identification with an imagined, separate identity, called 'me.'
You don't put on lipstick though, do you?
And without intellect, you wouldn't be able to understand what a zen koan is.
A zen koan will push the intellect to its limits in order to demonstrate that the intellect alone is not capable of comprehending a koan. Everything has limits, including the intellect. But no Zen master would expect someone to not utilize intellect along with everything else at their disposal in their quest to understand.
psstheyyou
As far as Zen Koans are concerned, the intellect has no way of sensing what they point to. The intellect may try or get pushed by the questioning mind, but only when the intellect gives up there is a chance for the boundless to reveal itself. Lisa is, no doubt, familiar with This. She is not concerned about satisfying intellectual questions. That's why I said, she doesn't appeal to the intellect.
She is pure truth.Jesus the Christ was talking about such truth which will set you free.
Jesus was talking about you being the truth, I AM the truth, the way, it's the I AM but the real Hebrew translation is I am becoming what I am becoming, we are always transforming to greater and greater it's a truth that is perfect on its own, it cannot be sold or exchanged and guess what we are the ones carrying this truth and no it's not nothingness it's much more than that it's impossible to describe, it's the unseen that makes things seen, life that gives life. When you realize you're the truth that's what sets one free because you recognize that you're your own source so you start to manage your thoughts better becoming more individualized by not letting the thoughts have domination over us since one can't serve two masters or ride two horses at once, it's the mind that should serve us and not the other way around, the image that manifested itself based on its own image, it's the great mystery, read the pearl of great price or check Neville's goddards video on the pearl of great price in my opinion it's the only video one needs it clears everything up
Having read all the comments below, and having listened again to this lovely creature, it seems only all the more obvious that she has lived through that moment that turns the universe inside out, and upside down--whereas in fact, there is the flash of knowing that that is the way you've been seeing everything, until now. Mr, AeonTv, and anyone else---you can't fake that, the simple obviousness that ALL is mystery, you can never "know who you are", or what anything is ever again. And that one, single moment, ( I think when she said "eject", that was as close as I needed her to get) trumps all the sutras, gurus, and scriptures in the world. Put away your books and listen to people like her. It seems obvious that you yourself have not yet walked through that door, or you would never say the kind of bookish, 'logical' things you say. Lighten up, bro.
Lovely Lisa ! She came to Cairns once hence her name 💜
An Ordinary, regular person who has an experience of Awakening! Very few are intelligent enough, humble enough to empty their cup so as to Taste her Tea!
i agree with the comments that says..she has a long way to go and that she has got to appeal to peoples intellect because we do have one ..it is a part of our consciousness ..we may move through the intellect /ego and eventually drop it to a minimum but we need to acknowledge it at the start of this kind of inquiry into deeper self...her method adds more confusion to the process and less wisdom /enlightenment
she laughs and smiles with an opened mouth like Tony parsons...non dual mimetism
This is all about the play of thinking. Thinking is a script that often demonstrates its profound limitations. The thought created person seems to realize that everything perceived is presented together but can also be seen as separate. Nonduality simply is a finger pointing to all I just typed as being story that arises and disappears. What remains?
Beautiful.
she is definitely what we call "enlightened", however Rupert Spira can explain it waaaay better than anyone! Although if anyone knows a girl like this to want to get to know me... refer them my way :-)
Finally someone who UNDERSTANDS non duality!!!!!! I wish I could marry her lol. I've been searching so long for this. Now I must listen lol
yes bro she even has a meditators eyes, it seems she is meditating while giving the interview , very sexy woman, and she surely knows her noneduality
Dyshawn Stevens there is no her. Also, sexy is just a concept.
Dyshawn Stevens Sir by marrying her you want to convert her nonduality into duality. And why marriage is precondition to love her or some one else, love her she is who presenting you.
Dyshawn Stevens but but there is no one to marry, or no you to get married,or you are eternally married, funny innit ha!
Unable to listen to her, she radiates to much beauty
You are That. Each and every one of You. We dont need teachers and feed their "spiritual ego", thats just obstacle. Its good to get information and that is to respect and be grateful for, but You have to find Your Self ! Other people enlightenment will not help You. ONly YOu are responsible fully for Your Self to get awaken. And it happen by consistent practice of Self INquiry s taught by Ramana Maharshi. To get Self Realization much faster also helps practice of Sudarshan Kriya, Cobra Breath and similar practices. But Self Inquiry by itself is enough if done with full sincerity. To finish : You are That, dont be a sheep and feed Guru syndrom --spiritual ego,..those teachers are no higher than Yourself ! YOu are That-. I am That I am.
Duality and non-duality are experiences and points of view. A mind that is free from craving and grasping towards contact is free from craving and grasping towards points of view. Such a mind looks at the arising of phenomena and accepts it as it is. So if what arises is an experience of non-duality, there is non-duality. If what arises is an experience on duality there is duality. It is allowed to arise and pass away. Because no state of conciousness is in any way permanent or abiding.
I like her
The sense that I am me is self-reinforcing, self-validating and self-reactive.
All that is, is simply intention-less attentive awareness that is utterly un-reactive to what is happening within intention-less attentive awareness should this be the case then Bob’s your uncle.
It is if intention-less attentive awareness happens to focus giving rise to intention. Awareness as variable focused intention give rise to the sense I am me.
As variable focused intention awareness is lost all that remains is intention-less attentive awareness happens.
Sounds interesting. Not sure if I am getting what you indicate. Are you looking at directionless attention versus directed attention? Directionless attention is devoid of thought, directed attention is 'looking through' defining concepts (thoughts). The attention is the same in both cases, as light is the same, no matter what medium it shines through, and no matter what it shines upon.
The issue is if the light has temporarily identified with concepts while passing through them or if it remains unidentified while passing through concepts. If it stays unidentified then there is freedom from identification. The other scenario is a seeming imprisonment in the maze of conceptual enclosures.
I fact duality is real, there is not one "consciousness", but different levels, just like the ying and the yang.
WHere is this other consciousness then? What can you point to that isn’t appearing in this?
@@mattsniper362 I don't think it's about "where" or "what"... let's say for example that it's impossible to use our consciousness to judge and perceive at the same time, although you can obviously switch between these functions quite quickly if your mind is fit.
My initial idea was more about consciousness vs subconscious domains, than about mental activities so I'm not sure this example is the best to describe these different levels.

Alex Rigsbee YOOOOO I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THAT LOL
Did anyone recognize the calm, constant ticking of the clock in the room during the whole interview ? That might be a nice analogy for what Lisa tries to point to...=> In one INSTANT you become aware of something, that has always been there. Steady, reliable, calming - Lisa calls it that "total stillness/nothingness/emptiness" :-) But if your mind has constantly been hysterically chattering in your head, it might just have overridden that "silent subtlety" for a very long time...
Is it fullfilling to lead a life that is ruled by the standard of "making sense" ?
There was clock ticking in my room too.
A topic you constantly touch on during this video is: Digital vs Analag (See sound for more info/an example.)
Digital is linear. (The 1 and the 0.) Analog can be defined, but only by digital. Your talking about physical manifestation though thought generation/progression.
Yes our left brain labels and defines items that are in fact not even real, but how could our right brain summarize them, if they aren't first labeled/defined.One cannot exist without the other? I believe this is the purpose of our of our right brain, to gather information from self and the whole and summarize it. (Its the CPU with Network support. lol)
Thoughts surface because of the inevitable sum of the whole. I too am compelled and driven more then ever. I feel the drum-beat moving faster then ever. But why?
You briefly spoke about a near death experience. Can you tell me anything about the looking glass / 3 or 4 visions/pools/possible futures.
(Your future being given to you by someone/something?)
It is what is it. ;)
Just my two cents. ;)
Thank You!
42:42 "How could this moment be a result of the past?" Cause and effect?
Either way brings you to a freedom. No responsibility or totally responsible, it's the same thing. It's when you think, you are a story, a puppet, and someone is hurting the puppet.
+ Wolfram Umlauf: Were all living/growing computers who are programmed with want. Two types of want exist, masculine and feminine. (Duality)
The Growth of each type can be diagrammed visually for understanding. Both grow to achieve the same thing, but grow by the use of different means.
The masculine is a circle, with a arrow that protrudes from it. Masculine, seeks out information and thus travels in a strait line to achieve it. (Granular learning) When the knowledge is consumed by masculine, the bubble grows and is now lopsided. With the new understanding of this information, masculine searches both left and right of the growth for knowledge and with the new understanding expands. When enough information is gathered about the topic, the circle becomes round again but is now larger. (epiphany)
The feminine is a circle with a plus sign/cross below it. Feminine gathers information for it's circle, but does it more passively. Feminine does not expand any part of it's bubble until the entire topic is understood. Once feminine has gone a full 360 degree's and fully understands the topic, the entire bubble then expands. (epiphany)
Computers cannot progress on their own. Only further programming/interaction permits this. Our living computer is the same way. Our brain consist of two Central Processing Units that work differently from each other. One of the fundamental things about humans is that we need each-other and CRAVE each-other. (Both feminine and masculine.) A child who is not given attention literally dies!
Our brains/computers are not strong enough to calculate everything. We HAVE to rely on the hive for this. People are intuitive. Our computer can only grow by interaction with other computers. I feel this is The butterfly effect at it's best!
Please Note: Both the masculine dominant and feminine dominant exhibit traits of each other and/or utilize parts of each other though-out this process. (Its just that it's not the dominant force.)
Love each-other!
Embrace each-other!
Learn from each-other!
Set aside the frustrations. Know that you are not alone, because we are all one. ;)
Resistance is futile.
Peace

It is true that this whole world is all an assumption. There is however no wrong experiencing with this assumption, whether I assume or believe "I" am this person writing these words...... it is what we do with this assumption, how we respond to this assumption and how we let ourselves be affected by it, if we do. Well, and for some, this assumption can be a quite fun and interesting experience.
