All experience is now. Try to step out of now into a past or future. Where do we or could we go? It is not possible to experience a past or future. We experience thoughts about a past or future but never the past and future themselves. This very now is the only now there is. It is not a moment in time. There is no 'present moment.' There is no time present in which the now could move forwards or backwards. It is eternally now.
Unhappiness is always an avoidance or rejection of the now. Our self, aware presence, is intimately one with all experience in the now. It knows no rejection of the now and is, therefore, happiness itself. The thought-made self is a movement of resistance or seeking, away from the now into an imaginary past or future. All avoidance and seeking is for the thought-made self, never for the true and only self of aware presence. The belief that time is real is essential to the perpetuation of this imaginary self; such a self feeds on the past and future. The now is the only place the separate self cannot stand. The now, in which all peace and happiness reside, is the only place the true and only self can be.
All the imaginary self's seeking longs only for the happiness that is inherent in the now. The imaginary self approaches the now like a moth approaches a flame. It longs for the flame but cannot experience it. It can only die in it. Likewise the imaginary self longs only for the happiness that resides in our self. However, it cannot experience it; it can only die in it. That death is the experience of happiness. This happiness lies at the heart of all experience, never imposing itself but never veiling itself, simply waiting with open arms to be recognized.

EVERY word is intense with meaning, clarity, simplicity, knowledge and love. So very grateful to Sand and Rupert. This is one of Rupert’s best or may be THE BEST. I intend to watch it many many times. Sand you gave the world a special gift. Namaste.
Might I ask how has it been since?
Very thankful for Rupert Spira. He and Alan Watts (RIP) have carried me on their shoulders for a few years now.
Spira is a recent find for me only a couple weeks ago but Alan Watts became my 'pocket bodhisattva' when he found me when I was ready for him back in 2015 and I credit him for showing me a path in life that is a wiggly one for wiggly people to walk on.
Absolutely! I too have only recently learned of this man via the Theories of Everything channel run by Curt Jaimungal.
Hinduism 😭😭😭😭❤️ Real Science ,
In India Everybody thinks it has superstitious because we have been made intentionally to forget the real knowledge of our own culture and experience it as some redicules superstitious practices
Same. The two men you mention are exceptional in their precise speech and understanding.
@@oO-_-_-_-Oo yeaah, if your buddha isnt alcoholic, then dont even tell me about him😅
Feeling much gratitude for this clear message!
Are you from the future? This was released three weeks ago, yet your comment is dated as ten years old. What's going on Mr Time Traveler?
GOOSEBUMPS 😁👇👇👇👇👇
6:55 - " That thought about past and future is always now "
Thank you so much. Spoken so clearly from the timeless heart of the everpresent love. 🙏🏻
You are a fascinating and otherworldly human. Thank you for your insights Rupert. I am grateful for the illumination.
Practical way to understand the absolute awareness of oneness with Love. Great Meditative movement. 💖🙏🙏🙏
It’s all just unconditional love 💗
Thanks so much Rupert! 🙏🏻
Absolutely Beautiful
Thanks! very good teaching.
Love from Ireland Rupert! Beautiful 🌻 thank you 🌻 💕
I like your ceramics, Rupert. ' A taste of nature's eternity. '
Thanks.....
Who is saying yes to the experience though? It’s just a voice saying ‘yes’. Even that voice is not separate from what’s happening. There is no one to resist what’s happening - but there can be apparent resistance .
Brilliant Rupert! !💕🤗🙏🏼👍🏼💫✨🌟
Brilliant! Thank you so much!❤
Mind Blown!!!!!!!
Best video
Creating abstraction out of everything is the same as when religious people spiritualize everything..in what way is it practical to live this way? I get grasping the concept if you're stressed or what not, and regrounding yourself, but most cant live there...daily life doesnt allow for it. Is this really the epitome of understanding? If we understand this is an illusion then we also understand we are here for a reason and it's to have a human experience. It's not to become as robotic as possible
It’s not becoming robotic, it’s rediscovering the truth of existence. All one person can do is take what’s good from things and leave what’s not. I find it helpful to remember the illusion of the ego in order to reinforce my morality. You don’t want to treat anything bad when you remember you are everything. If your intention is to live a good life as your ego than you have every right to live in who you are in this life and be the best you can be. When one forgets that they are part of something bigger then it is easier to lose the compassion and morality that comes with that knowledge.
Also this is all my opinion, lol.
@@juansantana7407 I agree with you, but it seems this guy has shut down all his emotions, and so appears robotic to me. I dont think this is how understanding should manifest but it's ok.
@@jms4406 I understand what you are saying. I tried to watch this but his intonation and cadence never change. I wonder if he has a sense of humor or if he can feel things deeply or if this is a kind of performance mode that he puts on when speaking to an audience.
@@jms4406 This isn't actually "a way" to live, it's just relaxing all the effort, to do, or find and discovering we are already awareness. So there is nothing to do, we're just relaxing and approaching the world from our natural state and from who we really are behind all the thoughts, concepts and emotions. It's extremely realistic to live like this because this is how you access the flow. I've been living like this for a little while and am more effective than ever because life seems to happen easily and within a flow. Tasks that used to feel very hard and complicated to me now come with more ease.
You're really interesting guy. What do you make of NDEs? Apparently people that have died and have visited the other side are still in a state of consciousness
How can there be a movement, (for example) on the watch, if there is no time for movements?
How can movement be perceived if there isn't a stable background to compare it against?

Just came here form the watching the 2016 game "The Witness"
I did the same thing few years ago.
I played The Witness, and in the middle on the town, below it, underground was a cinema. When you got secret puzzle keys, then you could watch a movie clip.
I saw Rupert Spira speach there for the first time. And then I started to search on internet/youtube for me. I'm grateful that I found him in that game in that time.
