Are you constantly worried about what the future holds? Terence McKenna has the solution. In this must-see video, he shows us how to focus on the present moment and let go of our fears about the future. Watch now and start living your best life!
AUTHOR :
Terence Kemp McKenna (November 16, 1946 - April 3, 2000) was an American ethnobotanist and mystic who advocated the responsible use of naturally occurring psychedelic plants. He spoke and wrote about a variety of subjects, including psychedelic drugs, plant-based entheogens, shamanism, metaphysics, alchemy, language, philosophy, culture, technology, environmentalism, and the theoretical origins of human consciousness. He was called the "Timothy Leary of the '90s", "one of the leading authorities on the ontological foundations of shamanism", and the "intellectual voice of rave culture".
McKenna formulated a concept about the nature of time based on fractal patterns he claimed to have discovered in the I Ching, which he called novelty theory, proposing that this predicted the end of time, and a transition of consciousness in the year 2012. His promotion of novelty theory and its connection to the Maya calendar is credited as one of the factors leading to the widespread beliefs about the 2012 phenomenon. Novelty theory is considered pseudoscience.

While I was comatose for 21 days, with half my brain dead, I envisioned myself living my best life, and this vision lasted 11 months. Doctors couldn't explain it, and expected me to be disabled for the rest of my life. Yet, I used my vision to ensure my complete recovery. As a result, I know
interestingly enough your youtube name has the word cursed in it meanwhile you seemed to have been blessed
>_>
@@aicelsmash1168 a truth for all. I think death is a good thing, but my TH-cam name is meant for the Christians around me who fear it
I like u guys lol
@Mind Games Russian doll style
I'm over here having an existential crisis and the audience was laughing lol
It is 9 days into 2023, can I still listen to this? Long time student of Terrence. And every time I come back to listen to him, not only do I learn from his vast wisdom and knowledge from experience, but I increase my vocabulary. Forever grateful that technology has this information at our fingertips for our ears to indulge in.
I often come back to Terrence McKenna because he taught me on how to become smarter, to reinforce by genius I keep coming back to him. #IAMSMART
lp
But bottom line what to do with the information?

love from switzerland 16 days into 2023
"It's the center. The interface." I pictured that center line in my mind and couldn't help but notice it's a wave.
Sometimes when I go to sleep I let the colors in my closed eyes go wild. I feel every fiber and bone in my body. As I feel myself fade away. Sometimes I get this perfect view of my room in immaculate detail. I can't move around I can't see myself but it's like I'm an eye right above my body.
It's almost like when you wake up and are falling back asleep you can start having a vivid dream before you are actually back asleep.
It's happened in every home I've lived in. I've also had a series of lucid dreams when I was really into exploring consciousness and I'd try and push through the dream realm and into "true reality". I've had no success. Just usually the people in my dream start thinking I'm crazy lol and ask if I need help. 😅
This one time I realized I was walking down a street I don't live in anymore and knew I was dreaming. So I wanted to fall through thr fabric of the dream scape and explore else where and when I let myself fall backwards onto the pavement (in my dream) I fell through the concrete and flipped from the floor upright onto my feet like if my feet where hooked in and my body rotated 360 backwards through the ground . No matter how hard I try I can't break through that realm.
It's not consistent the dreams are getting rarer as I get older. Maybe someone else has tried this. I swear dreams are just parallel realitys.
Wow! I really enjoyed reading your comment. Your descriptions are so vivid I felt as though I was there with you.
I feel like taking 5 dried grams in silent darkness all of a sudden
I'm you you're me we are we☺️
Mmm grey Buddha an got shit to say to me any more just looks at me like I showed up unannounced an he goin to bed.
1 is enough for me
Whatever floats your dose dude, but take it! :3
YEE
It's crazy how much my mind wants to both accept and deny this knowledge. No one thinks much about going to sleep and dreaming but it is pretty crazy if you think about it in this way.
His language is so clear. It's so refreshing to hear. Such a solid assessment of what is going on

I have no idea what he said. So part of the world is always sleeping..and therefore nobody is in control of the world? What? Did I miss something? What I heard makes no sense.
@@randomgrinn It's definitely not crystal clear and easy to understand, and I think anyone who says as such probably isn't fully listening to his words, but rather is listening like some people listen to radio preachers. They just pick up on the general theme from what is clearly understandable, and they like how it sounds.
It might be easier to understand in the context of his full lecture, but there's something missing here. There's a disconnect between his first dreaming metaphor, why people believe weird things, his assertion of the fact that no one is in control, that the world is dreaming and its future is unfolding like a dream, and the end where he asserts you can choose your level of wakefulness.
The main point I take away is that nobody is in control and it's impossible have full control, but you can choose whether to be asleep, awake, or somewhere in between to this reality. It's difficult to live fully in that chaos of reality, and if it serves your life and your growth as person to call upon a higher power, or whatever your practice might be, do it. Just don't get swept away by the illusions and start following conspiracy theories, things that aren't conducive to any sort of personal progress or growth. Idk if those last two sentences are correct, but that's the most sense I can make of it.
@@randomgrinn Just play it again, and pay closer attention
Thank God I'm not crazy for seeing psychedelic visions just before passing out
There is a heartbeat, a pulse, to our collective consciousness.
I can see partly very clear pictures, when I'm in transition to fall asleep. I love that. Relates to that clear/lucid dreaming thing.
This world is almost a fleeting illusion. There's another world in which we live that the psychedelic world can show us where we are really from.
It's an absolutely mental world. We can almost not fathom how absolutely insane it is. But we've been there forever and we all go back there soon enough.
It's not heaven or he'll It's way beyond anything like that.
It's a vacuum like being trapped in a windowless room of formless plastic of unbelievable colours.
When you see it you know you've been there before. Many times.
But it's also much more than that. That's just the waiting room.
It's scary to think about. But it is what it is.
While we're here we must love eachother. We must cherish every moment. Experience everything you can but try not to hurt yourself or others.
Love.
So you have discovered DMT lol
Ya, no one is in control. At last someone who articulates the truth. Thank you very much Mr McKenna.
A frightening, frightening proposition and a little counter too my own experience.
My beliefs mean nothing too anyone but me, however, as a 9 year sober man using 12 step process, things have occurred in my life based on a simple belief and or reliance upon the spirit of the universe or “god” for short and lack of a better word.
Things have occurred in my life that are far far beyond human orchestration which also seem to embody a very loving spirit behind it all.
Something very personally involved in my life and recovery.
Is it nature responding in kind to my thoughts and behaviors?
Maybe.
Is it simple physics at work?
Could be.
Is it the loving hand of a creative intelligence?
Don’t know.
I choose to believe it’s the loving hand of a creative intelligence that not only wants to be involved in my life but desires me as much as I desire it.
That what I’m looking for is looking for me too.
IDK 🤷♂️ but it’s a belief system that affords me some peace and 9 years of sobriety after 35 years of suicidal drink and using.
Psychedelics are excluded from drugs I abused because they cannot be abused per se but they are definitely wonderful teachers
@BOB K indeed. I know at this point from Ramana Maharishi’s self inquiry practice and several teachers I’ve had that there is no actual thinker, that thinking is an activity of the mind, not unlike breathing is an activity of the body. It happens of itself.
Beyond that “don’t know.”
Master Seung Sahn taught “don’t know “ mind as part of his dharma. He was /is my original lineage and one of several current teachers I look too for guidance on the path.
I don’t know 🤷♂️ but I’ll be damned if I don’t keep looking.
I like St Francis “ what you are looking for is, what’s looking.”
I, as often as I can remember, turn attention towards what’s looking, towards what’s aware.
Who knows bro.. the spiritual journey occurred and there’s no turning back now.
I don’t know if this makes perfect sense, but I’ll throw it out. No one is in control of the waves coming in. But we do get to make attempts to ride those waves, occasionally catch those waves, and in some instances co-create something beautiful with those waves.
@@philtronnn makes total sense. As too it’s truth in the absolute sense I’d say none of us knows yes?
@@youarewhatyourelookingfor4496 " what you are looking for is what's looking" vs " you are what you're looking for" ...got confused here, bit convoluted for me...lost the point.. not the same meaning as ones looking inward at the observer who's looking... the other is looking for something beyond itself??? Word/ meaning breakdown...
choice is conflict,choice is confusion, choiceless awareness is more like it.
Yes. And for that one must care to even bother. That's too few in a planet of 8 billion.
@@mrrecluse7002 yes
It's true... As they say, if you're not sure what to do, better do nothing.;-)
No one is in control...omg !! Don't follow leaders watch the parking metres.. glad to be part of that generation...RIP.. McKenna namista 🙏
The truth is no one will ever know that answer. Gon, no god, gods. Wfk! I believe in a creator but no one will name or define it for me ever. I believe in a higher existence. Again no one will define it for me. I think you gut. Find answers in it all and stay humble. No one knows. Follow your own path! Humans can't be trusted.

Ever hear You Create the Reason by Forest for the Trees?
I listen to dreaming awake at the end of time while going to sleep. I used this quote in a drum and bass song once too lol.
yeh good work. I sampled this into a downtempo track. I have also generated that same yin yang vision that he is referencing. Do you have a link for the track?
We live in a temporal reality, but we come from the infinite
One of my favorite hobbies is looking up the definition of words. Instead of looking for teachers to pass on some wisdom in hopes of finding a nugget that applies to me, a word will pop into my head and I’ll look it up, look at synonyms and antonyms, the root of where the words came from, etc. and I’ve learnt more that way in such a short amount of time than I ever could listening to anyone.
Anyway, in that journey of learning one of the first things I realized is that it’s literally impossible to be awake all the time, people talk about an “awakening” and “more people are waking up every day”, but in my frame of mind it’s like, yeah no shit, people wake up every morning. If you don’t go back to sleep, somethings wrong with you.
None except for the One. The subject
lol the words only have meaning with context.
@@roberto125919 so does everything you observe
You apparently looked up the word "literally." Now look up the word "figuratively." 🤦
@@RastusFlanigan I used that word a single time, if that’s all you got from this it’s most likely just you projecting your own shit. This is a great method in my opinion, but like I said if that’s all you got from a single word in this, well I don’t know what else to tell you
What a wild synchronicity, just last night as I was trying to go to sleep I thought about the fact someone on the planet was always awake. What would happen if everyone in the world was sleeping at the same time?
Synchronicity does feel a bit higher than usual today.
I had to break out the old dictionary. Thank you for the light, Mr. McKenna & thank you Jerry Garcia for introducing me to this prophet back in ‘91….oh, and for the eternal music.
Wisdom 101 👉 The Connections (2021) [short documentary] 💖
ngl i respect the dead but they have some very boring music. check out king crimson for some cool shit
@@seth5394 The Grateful Dead are the true psychedelic band…no way “boring.” The Dead are an inspiration.
Ive listened to this entire lecture so many times throughout my life and each time i hear something new and stupifyingly brilliant. What a great clip, for the rest of it, I believe the full talk was called something like The Obelisk at The End of Time
Correction, its called The Transcendental Object at the End of Time: th-cam.com/video/aAlaRdrcQcY/w-d-xo.html
You're trying to memorise it. Take notes instead.
He could not be more on point.
He's like a philosopher that never comes to any true understanding. All just ideas
I feel for his soul and his paranoia
He is smart and imaginative yet ultimately does not seem especially centered or wise.
@@christopher9152 The problem with being "centered" and "wise" is that you'd have absolutely nothing to say or teach, the greatest philosophers always say "I have nothing to teach you". Because they themselves are already in peace with everything. Talking or "teaching" in of itself can be considered a wasted effort.
@@isaiahexile what your saying is if someone is centered and wise they have no teachings. Keep searching Terrance. My seeking has stopped. He uses big words and sounds really smart. Absolutely nothing tangible about it. Beautiful poetry. Beautiful poetry it is
He does not dispense conclusions which is the work of the ego. He gives us permission to take his ideas and build on them ourselves or reject them. He gives gifts, not injunctions ...
Terence McKenna never fails to bring new ideas to me, never predictable. What a fascinating and novel thinker 💚
Ahhh the interface between awake and sleep. We’re never all asleep or all awake. Profound. Never thought on this before. Consciousness creating the world both in wakefulness and sleep state. Watch your sleep becomes more important. Don’t you think? 🤔
Thank you for this 🙏💖
Look into lucid dreaming. It's a whole skill within itself. And there is specific techniques and methods to help gain control of the dream state, and promote dream recall.
It's fascinating, and a really useful skill to learn. As it helps one to learn about ones owns conciousness.
Judy goldschmidt Is that what he was trying to say? I can't figure out what this video is about at all.
@@psilo0419 He is suggesting that because of the fact that, humanity as a whole collective is partially awake and partially asleep (or aware of reality and unaware of reality). Then as a result we get a Hodge podge of diverse ideas and beliefs. But there is not one unified theory that ties it all together. It's more like semi organised chaos. And despite all the best efforts of the conspiracy theorists, the red pill movement, and the so called truthers. Not one of them can prove deffinetively that anyone group is in full control of us. (The masons, the Jesuits, the World economic forum, the illuminatti etc). It cannot be proved either way. And the fact of the matter is, that nobody is in full control. As it cannot be controlled. It's impossible to control chaos. Just like a dream cannot be fully controlled. And life is more like a dream.
So the trick is, to accept all of this. Drop the paranoia, and learn to control thyself.
That's what Terrance is suggesting in this video.
@TheSystem Research lucid dreaming. It teaches techniques , you might find usefull
@@DigitalBard1 this is still confusing, but worded much better than Mckenna did, so thank you. What I can glean from what you're saying here is that half the world is aware of reality, and the other half isn't. I wish he could've just said that. Lol.This still sounds off to me because I highly doubt anyone knows anything about reality. It's all perception. That's why a Christian and a scientist can look at pictures from the Hubble Telescope and both see completely different things: one sees the work of God, the other sees the work of the big bang. But neither of them are right. This belief/understanding of mine forms a barrier that is making it hard for anything this video is saying to get through. If he really is saying that half the world is aware of reality, I’m sorry but I can't believe that. As far as life being more like a dream, I do believe and understand that. Everything is perception. With a different perception comes a completely different reality.
Thank you for trying to help though.
The in-between, that space/point of contact, is where "magic" starts, be it chemical, gravitational, magnetic, or electric.
I have two worlds - my "waking" life and my "dreaming" life - and each to me is as profound as the other.
I'm either cursed or blessed to dream heavily. I always dream when I sleep.
I fear a time when I confuse my dreams with reality. I have come close to this. Very close.
I have times I recall where I'm not actually sure events I remember were real or dreamed - possibly a combination. I don't know.
I have many recurring dreams, recognised spaces, entire worlds.
I chase the lucid dream - I've come so close to control, but always awake before I can grasp it. It escapes me, in reach, moving out of reach - gone - and I am awake.
I spend a great deal of time sleeping, I always have, from early childhood.
I consider 8 hours as the minimum.
I fear people who say they don't dream. Who say "When I sleep, I never dream."
To me, that suggests emptiness, thoughtlessness, lack of empathy.
Perhaps these people do dream, but forget.
I also forget some details of some dreams, but have memories of dreams from childhood that are equally as strong and binding as my waking memories.
To me, my dreamscape is another world I inhabit.
It is as important to me as the waking world and always will be.
There have been times in my life where I've longed to escape the waking world and inhabit my dreams instead.
I am fortunate, because to date, I have had no cataclysmic life experience that makes me fear that dream world.
I have had my share of nightmares, terrible nightmares.
I have experienced many dreams which could be compared to the movie "inception" - not in direct context to that, but rather that I've fallen asleep in a dream and ended in another and then another.
I have gone 3 levels deep into those states. I consider these nightmares.
In every case, I've had to awake from one into the dream before it and fight my way back to the waking state.
"Am I still dreaming?" - I pinch my arm. "I don't appear to be."
Same here.
I feel very similar to this. I have vivid dreams most every night and remember ones from childhood just as you describe. When I talk and tell people about them they show little interest but to me it's as you describe a 2nd world which I live in and I am describing details of another life but people just have no interest. I can understand why obviously because they are not real events but to me they have meaning I just don't know what. Last night I dreamt that I was in Iran with 3 friends and one of them had a heart attack and the other 2 friends quickly made a device that shocked him back to life and then we were walking the streets of Tehran and we bumped into a couple of priests and asked them what time is mass on Easter Sunday. The dream was so vivid and the streets of Tehran seemed so beautiful. Anyway I don't know why I wrote all this I just really enjoyed and emphasised with your post and felt like replying.
I’m on a tab of L$D right now. I could listen to these videos forever ♾️ lol.
Thanks for putting this together. ✌️😎
No one has control. No need to think any further :)
Comforting thought, but pure lie, IMO.
@@mariad6519 Are there "the ones" who have control?
finally someone tells it like it is - or at least as I see it - no one is in control!! And that's far more terrifying and at the same time gives far more hope.
@Wildflower exactly! And one curious thing is humans are all about control! They want self control, control of others, nature…….etc! And in our innate tendency we believe we have free will….which from my assessment and others (Einstein) it’s an illusion! Which in some ways that’s comforting as it reduces judgement--and reinforces the notion of letting go! And yet…..
Nothing is terrifying just not understood
This reminds me very much of Byung Chul Han stuff about the digital swarm, acceleration, the disappearances of the contemplative element.
Love ya, Terence.
Thank you
Thank you 🙏💜
yes i agree with him about sleep, its not just rest theres something more to it.
Its a narrative we tell ourselves..it's beautiful.
I needed this. Thanks from the Now-SPACE Terrence
No one is in control. It’s not about “control” (that’s where attention goes to), it’s the “no one” part which is truly deep. Let’s clarify: it means, you are not in control because there is no one. ;)
An infinite number of thumbs up partner.
Its both, there is no control, and there is no one.
@@minimal3734 It's interesting what some scientists have to say about the illusion of free will. Google it. Or maybe you already know what I'm referring to.
@@mrrecluse7002 Yes I’m aware of it.
Good point
There is something but it’s all one on a large picture where everything comes from the same thing that’s why there’s no control you are the controller but like he said why control let be everything has already happened from past to future we just happen to be now why worry
I really appreciate and enjoy your chanel, thank you for sharing
Priceless!
Well, this was certainly worth listening to. 👏🏻
Thank you! 👍❤️💥
Something is directing the dream
this is absolutely profound... so profound it is in fact frightening...
To enhance your understanding of the possibility of living without control or conditioning look at the Krishnamurti viewpoint in Intellectual Wave’s collection titled: “How to overcome THE IMPOSSIBLE “
I am enthusiastic about the immense wisdom that came through unconventional minds like Terence McKenna, Alan Watts and Jiddu Krishnamurti, just to name a few. The underlying question is really about: Can I first see fully the affects of psychological hypnosis which is endemic in my particular mind and more importantly the collective consciousness of mankind? Having seen it totally, insight acts to end its pervasive influence by the mysterious intelligence of ‘INACTION’.
When I was a young lad I smoked pot with Terrance in Palenque, Mexico. He was a cool fellow. I do find profound wisdom in Krishnamurti's perspetive on our current apocalypse and Kali Yuga. Peace be with you!

Thanks for the referral, it was simultaneously shocking and interesting. The footnote to this pressing need to harmonise might be simply a wise quote from Krishnamurti: “beauty is when the self is not”
Inaction as in Zen Buddhism and Taoism. By not doing one can see that you do. So what’s all the action and doing about to solve world hunger, save the planet, stop global warming, prevent homelessness, stopping greed and corruption, the war on drugs, poverty, etc…..??? We can’t even save ourselves!
A template for weakness and submission.
Lap it up.
Exactly!
One of the most brilliant subversives to have ever spoken.
Terence McKenna 🏅🏅🏅 🎉🎉🎉 a God among men -
Too smart for me, I have no idea what the hell he was talking about.
He confused entities,groups and individuals seeking to control rather than actually achieving it. The reality is that the world is run by the people who turn up and they seem to last shorter and shorter periods in some kind of power or control. He died over 22 years ago and was the proponent of many concepts that challenged the status quo,few or if any of which reached any kind of widespread acceptance.
Would you include the date and locations of Terrence's material in the descriptions?
Hi! This is fantastic. Where can I find the full lecture/speech? Thank you very much! ☀☀✌✌
Second
The Earth is partly dreaming in the dark, facing the stars away from our sun, and partly awake facing the sun. There might be no one in control, but there are infinitely greater orders of magnitude and complexity. Quantum to Cosmic, there is unbelievable order to the unfathomable chaos.
I learned about the hyppy state by falling asleep one time while focusing on a stuffed gray alien head toy filling in a hole I punched in my wall. I fell half asleep with my eyes open and had some profound hallucinations. From that point forward all I had to do to instigate sleep paralysis and the hyppy state was simply focus on a single point with my eyes open, try not to blink too often, and make an effort to not let the eyes jitter. After a few minutes I'll see a hallucination of a 'radar sweep' going around and around, without fail, every time. At that point I know where I'm going. That's what I thought he meant when he said 'while sleeping, watch'. While falling asleep, try to keep your eyes open.
Wow. He expresses it perfectly.
What did he express perfectly? Can you explain this video to me?
@@psilo0419 @Joshua Hopper he discusses how consciousness interfacea with the duality of reality. ie: mental limitations, dichotomous biases, seeking to make sense of things by attaching to unusual ideas, etc. It's fascinatingly more applicable today than it was when he spoke it - he highlights how access to information through technology has caused us as a collective to feel lost (grasping at our imagination and calling it reality) as we become unable to anchor our minds in a cominality of understanding (on what reality actually is).
Our frame of reference historically was much more narrow than it is now - with social structures (such as organised religion, for example) widely undisputed and thus available to us as a means of rationalising ourselves into feeling safe. The fact of reality is much less polarised than what we seem to be comfortable with - as with the yin-yang symbol, and as with the indeterminate nature of the collective sleep/wake cycle, reality seems to be more of a rhythm than it is a "true or false" dichotomy. Continuing with the metaphor - if sleep is "false" and awake is "true", is it possible for the entirety of the human collective to all be "true" at the same time? To summarise, basically - reality is subjective and because we cannot seem to make sense of any of it, we attach to ideas which make us feel secure and feel like we know what's going on, and we're now exposed to so many incongruent ideas that it's starting to show that no one actually knows what's really going on!
Thank you. I had to re-read your comment about fifty times, but I think I've got it now. I appreciate the help.
@@psilo0419 I feel exactly the same way. But I'm working my way through it. Good on you for having the discipline to stick with it long enough to get the message! Here's hoping I can as well. ADHD is a brutal mistress.
@@Undoing88 You'll get there. Sorry you have ADHD. I know someone with it personally, and know it can be obstructive at times.

Good stuff
Can We Live in that grey zone¿? not,but it is a Choice every moment!!
Some words stand the test of time.
But I can control my dreams. I’m the mover and the shaker of my own mountains creating everything I want to experience through my thoughts and my words. This man has done the same. To lecture the intellectually inept from his pedestal of egotism.
I'm pretty sure I could go out of body sometimes when I'm falling asleep. Unfortunately I get too nervous, back out, and end up having sleep paralysis instead. One of these days I'll sack up and push through lol
“Let the world be”
When I hear Terence all I hear is the "Hot Alien Summer" podcast 😆🤣
I love his far more terrifying truth: *no one* is in control!
Explain to me how the billionaires could NOT be in control? They want the control, and they have the means to control everything...therefore, how could they NOT be in control?
very cool that Terry happens to mention Netanyahu as he's high in 2024.
and remember we were told not to wake people out of nightmares, they might die!
All these projections into the 'world'. I'm reminded of what I heard Sam Harris discuss. He points out that there isn't another thinking part of the mind that determines our next thought, our next memory. So, without making statements about the world at large, we can realize that there is no one in control of the stream of events within each individual mind.
Death is just a reset. Have no fear, don't hold your ego so dear.
Four out of five Shaman agree with Terrence I am the outlier.
Is the line between yin yan a razor-sharp knife edge or a blurred merging of concepts ?
I love how he so easily parceled out that cognitive dissonance that drastically drives us apart.
"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time"

I lost my mind. Don't miss it.
As my guess is that the widespread assumption of free will is highly exaggerated. "Choosing" occurs with increasing self awareness, but usually not without struggle, and suffering. Most of the time, for most humans, (no exception here), shit just happens.
People with anxiety: "I'm an over-thinker."

I met a mystical magical female acquaint on New Year's Eve. She asks me, "how long has your third been open?"
I was amazed and alot feelings went through me. That was before I ate some mushrooms.
I believe my third eye need to be squeegeed anyway.
She was talking about your beer dude
Only freedom one has is choice. You can always choose. Consequences or benefits are a different topic, but choice is always available. Transurfism by Vadim or neville goddard explain it beautifully.
How can you choose if there is no chooser?
@@jackbeckett2838 i know what you mean but you drifted too far. we are not there yet and neither was the context. also this is from the Buddhist perspective where one realizes there was never a Self. But, from Hinduism perspective, atman, (Sanskrit: “self,” “breath”) one of the most basic concepts in Hinduism we see that the universal self is identical with the eternal core of the personality and that after death either transmigrates to a new life or attains release (moksha) from the bonds of existence. So there is no chooser as you say when we look at if from Buddhism lenses of various different schools it has. From Hinduism perspective, I have explained. From Christianity, in the conservative evangelical Christian interpretation, only those who are born again receive a "new spirit" so there's the repent thing and what not. And most New Age literature defines the Higher self as an extension of the self to a godlike state. This Higher Self is essentially an extension of the worldly self. With this perspective, New Age text teaches that in exercising your relationship with the higher self, you will gain the ability to manifest your desired future before you. In other words, the self creates its own reality when in union with the Higher Self. However what I mean has nothing to do with religions as you pointed out Buddhism perspective. I merely mentioned that in life in this human journey where you play the game of life, have a wife or husband, kids, job, hobbies, fight, win or lose, play, laugh cry, do scuba diving etc, in this game of life you can always choose.
I think this very assumption has us in bondage.
@@Meow-ds7pr It appears to me that everything we are seems to be a result of nature/nurture and we 'choose' based on primarily two things, impulse and logic. When they oppose each other the stronger wins. Our impulses are governed by nature/nurture into and our logic by what we have learnt.
The supposed choice to do things such as meditate, become a better person or control impulses are again governed by impulses themselves and logic, things we have no real control over. If we decide to learn more to update our logic it was dictated by the impulse that came before we took ownership of it and said "I have chosen to learn this topic" etc.
Looking at it this way it seems everything is just 'happening'. Yet I can't shake the feeling that there's more to it than that.
The joys of duality.
@@Meow-ds7pr But Atman is actually the same as Brahman, as existence/nonexistence is a big game of hide and seek...as Alan Watts would say. Lila..."gods play."
The world is perfect. It's absolutely flawless. ☯️
Edit- why are people laughing?
Everybody wants to rule the world...👑💰💰👑🎶🎵🎶
Just because I’m paranoid, doesn’t mean that there’s not a global conspiracy to enslave all mankind 😅
Noone is incontrol 😗

Nobody's in control sounds right to me, how else can we explain the cockup.
There’s something crucial missing in the talk …. *insert big gulp of water*
«Man is a rope stretched between the animal and the Superman--a rope over an abyss. A dangerous crossing, a dangerous wayfaring, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting. What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not a goal: what is lovable in man is that he is an OVER-GOING and a DOWN-GOING.»
Zarathustra reference??
@@renias8965 Nietzsche’s “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”. Great poetic and prophetic book.
@@JonnaaM I’ve read it!!Thank you!
@@renias8965 It’s a classic!

Reminds me of a meme that says, "Relax...Nothing is under control".
Riiiight... In short, go to sleep, sheep! We have gatekeepers for every one of you, be they simpletons or wanna-be intellectuals.
You did prove your point, People think the Dummest things, you're the Perfect Example
**Dumbest
Why does the thumbnail say, “I was this far from losing my mind”, and then nothing in the video is related to that statement. Why has Clickbait become so accepted
Maybe I am dumb, but I didn't hear ANY advice, whether eye-opening or not. I'm supposed to sleep? Uh ok, I will then. I'm not supposed to control the world? Uh...ok I won't then. Thanks for the advice...boy that sure helped....
