David Parrish a huge thank you on behalf of everyone like myself who finds your teachings so enlightening and so clearly explained as are all your video's. Yes I watch every one because honestly once I had viewed one of your video's I knew that I had found the only teacher I would ever need. No bs David I'm sure you have been told many many times that you are the best at directing us all exactly how to awaken and how to stay awake, your brilliant please don't ever stop making these excellent video's, we need your help and support, you are an absolute legend and I can't Thank you enough for all your knowledge has been invaluable to me and I'm sure to many more people who are so grateful for all your help and advice, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. 😊😊😊
Thanks for clarity, The dream of freedom from the nagging mind of endless wishes is captivating, and compelling and simply in my grasp already if I listen to my heart. My body is truly broken at 71 and riddled with cancer but this is also not the full or real picture. I feel Every human has the permanent Open invitation in each breath to contentment and can be with the simple happy self - it is not an accomplishment, it is a gift, it’s the wish to be and built into your breath in every breath - thanks for your simple communications and reminders ❤Chris
The USA is in fact a federal corporation. It has been incorporated and that is why we have a President, VP, treasurer etc just like a business corporation. But yea what would a billionaire who created his own private corporations that are world renowned know about running a corporation? Even still both parties are 2 sides of the same coin. You get the same thing either way with a different storyline. Its the Giants v. Jets divide and conquer. Also plays right into meditation and becoming aware and awake from the system of things that have been set up to trick and coerce us into the societal "norms" the controllers of this world impose.
Not all personalities are Neurotic. I agree that most ppl are, but it is possible to live in peace and harmony individually if you have done your homework. And we don't aim for happiness, we aim for contentment.
Contentment and happiness are essentially the same thing. We don't aim for them, we are them. That's our true nature. You don't have to go anywhere to experience them. That's what the teachings say.
@@WW11110 in my view happiness is a positive state not a balanced state contentment is the balanced state and Happiness needs a reason contentment does not need a reason. So we can return to it any time. Buddha called it the Golden middle path. I call it the silence in the eye of the hurricane. Every Desire takes you out of contentment. When a Desire appears just watch it and don't bind to it just let it be and pretty soon it will disappear.
Its a shame David can't leave his politics out of it because I find his teachings clear. It's also clear that he still has a lot of a certain ideology left from the particular area he grew up in, and the people he grew up around.
100% that is a shame to see and kind of contradictory to hus teachings I suppose nobody is perfect but id think someone of this intelligence teaching this material would be a bit more "aware"
That’s a teaching for you, why do you care about other people opinions so much that it ruins your experience of them giving you ideas/pointers about things? If someone else is not ideologically on the same side as you, can’t you listen his teachings? Its sometimes though, but awareness doesn’t have ideologies, it doesn’t care about concepts.
@JokuRandomiPoju you show your own ignorance. I think ill call you kamala. You see kamala for anyone teaching this subject it takes away from the message and is contradictory to these teachings. It takes credibility away. If you are that unlearned id suggest cracking a few books before you comment in a public space, kamala.
Experience in politics? Do you mean experience in fear mongering and sucking up to billionaire donors who you then serve? Anyway, thanks for bringing this message to psychotherapy.
@@endofscene In a way, it's a reminder that even after there is no longer identification with the personality, the personality still persists. And that the personality never becomes all-knowing or all-wise. I remember in 2016 when Gangaji put out a video to soothe her followers after the orange bad man was elected. The derangement syndrome was palpable in her and it was shocking to me at the time. Now I think it's just the way this dream appears.
@@endofscene I think that is likely the case. However, I'm not sure there is such a thing as "fully realised." At least not as long as the body carries on. I've never heard of a sage without idiosyncracies. Some remain alcoholics. Some smoke cigarettes. Some are womenizers. The body lives in a dualistic dream of contrasts. I don't see a way around that.
David says awakening will not happen in any one moment rather its a gradual realization that you will come to finding you aren't the body that will keep you present etc but also said in another video someone he knows that had 40 years experience meditating still isnt awake. Are we too far gone? We have been programmed/poisoned since birth the complete opposite direction so are we too far gone??
It seems to me that David has a great knowledge of the teachings and is excellent at getting those teachings over to others. However it’s seems obvious that enlightenment has not occurred in this mind/ body organism .
I would say that part of the problem is that language has to be used to convey something that is beyond, or prior to, thinking. Even people from the same culture and speaking the same language can understand things slightly differently.
You content is an epic gift to mankind. Thank you brother 🙏

Thank you for these talks David, they are life changing.
Found ya!
@chazadanga You sure did.
Love you David. So glad I found you. Not enough words for my gratitude.
Great speech, appreciate the video David. ❤️😌

I am amazed how you mix psychology and spirituality. I keep seeing more how they are two sides of the same coin.
Thank you again for another great video! Awesome!
Excellent. Beautiful conversation. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Much needed 🙏❤️

Everyone by definition is neurotic by definition because that is what the personality is. The personality isn't real. That's what the teachings say.
Contentment and happiness are essentially the same thing. We don't aim for them, we are them. That's our true nature. You don't have to go anywhere to experience them. That's what the teachings say.
@@WW11110 @WW11110 people confuse individuality with personality the individual is real the personality is not, but you have to know the difference😅
@@WW11110 in my view happiness is a positive state not a balanced state contentment is the balanced state and Happiness needs a reason contentment does not need a reason.
So we can return to it any time.

Not to far gone. You are either doing meditation right or something else. You can only wake up by waking up.

Ugh why did you have to go to politics
Both sides are a clown show and what we have now is also terrible
@@winnemucca2067 It’s not enough we have all the celebrities pushing their political views on us. Now it’s spiritual teachers too. 😐
I like how its always the most assuming like a guy dressed in underarmour shirts who is the most clear.
