    My bubble has popped. What you are describing here is what I am living...the end of trying to be somebody or getting somewhere. The fear and sense of failure/worthlessness comes in waves. Thank you for articulating this as so clearly. I am 100 percent the least "put together" I have ever been. I know I will eventually be so grateful.

    One narrative gets replaced by another. I don't think we lose the character/ mind /person. As long as we have a human brain ,that's how it functions. I think what can happen is that the sense of self can become looser, less neurotic and constricted. But there's no attaining anything, it is more like losing things.

    Thank you for this. Amazing synchronicity as it applies to where I am right now. I feel so overwhelmed by the different teachings and different pointers. To try and make them all fit together can drive a person mad. But that truly is how the mind works, with duality confusion happens. I feel like the only truth is that *this is happening* (by this I mean everything). And the actual truth extinguishes itself as there is nothing left to say. Reality is as it is regardless of what we believe. My life has forced me into a place of surrender because I have nothing left.

  • @compateur
    @compateur 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

    For me attention is the wanting to be accepted completely as a person. This is an expression of love. This is very natural. As you recently said, it is just as it is. This wanting can take on many forms from jealousy to megalomania. But in the end the person longs for a very deep acceptance, a knowing that the person is perfect with all its flaws. Being open to acceptance makes the person so vulnerable (fear), but when that acceptance takes place, it will be experienced as a very blissful moment.

    • @ItApproaches
      @ItApproaches 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Wouldn't say longing for a deep acceptance per say, it's more so just ego trying it's damndest to self validate who it is. Cause it doesn't know. It tries to convince itself it's a perfect being and yet it's always got this "Nah this isn't it, we can do better!" A continuous chase to an answer that's not there. Yet ego will never accept that. Reality is perfectly imperfect.

    Teachers didn't earn their positions, like the founders. They come from a lineages or went to schools. All religions have that, in common. It's a very fallen world or age. So, when I studied vedanta and buddhas teachings, without an "expert", I started to understand it. It's intuitive, when meditating on it.

    Thank you Suzanne for this video and all of your other ones. It was in one of your past videos that gave me an understanding, another piece of the puzzle to awakening. You had spoke of the I and the me in such a way that I was able to view the I as a silent passenger in the vehicle of the me. Like an observant toddler in the backseat of a car driven by a parent. Present but not in control of anything, not the body and not the mind with it's thoughts, beliefs, opinions, and judgements. I don't know if it is the I or the me that saw this and understands it, but I now feel that I am like an audience member watching a character on a reality show that I have always identified with and realize that they are not me and that nothing they do is controllable or affects me in any way. It's still hard for me to distinguish if the voice in my head when I am thinking out loud about this topic or others, if it is just the conditioning on autopilot, a false me, or if the felt I may also have a voice.

      The ability to lean back and just observe the thoughts and emotions of “Jane” (insert your own name) is called the “seat of self” or “witness consciousness” and it’s fantastic that you’ve found it. Most of the time we are so strongly identified with those thoughts and emotions that we really suffer. If you can put some distance between you and those thoughts/emotions that’s where you really start to free yourself. I know it’s hard to sift through all the teachers, but I want to mention Michael Singer. He is totally not interested in being anyone guru. But more importantly, 99% of his teaching is about exactly this - being able to witness the activity of the mind without being sucked in. Bravissimo.

    Why is suffering imposed on us, when all we want is to be happy and free of all manipulations, deceptions and traumas. Suffering has no reason other than suffering. This life is an evil no one should have to live through. Our whole lives have been a lie. Waking up in a world of hell is the hardest thing to be actually truthful with oneself, instead of gaslighting you to accept this as an actual healthy way to live. Thank you for your thoughts and honesty.

      It just is what it is. Any asking about who made it is also what is apparently happening. But there is no maker of reality its just an illusion. Even if god appeared and said here i am i made it all, then thats also whats happening. It can't be gotten around. It is appearing as this. The immediate direct reality. Whatever it is, thats it too. Whether its a concept, an emotion, something seen with the bodies senses or anything else. Thats all non duality/spirituality is about really, just seeing everything as it is. One of the major implications of that is seeing the conceptual self as it is, which is basically a web of concepts that refer to each other. But when each concept is seen individually without reference to another one as they actually are, then the illusion of the self is seen through.

    God is always speaking but unless the ego is completely gone, God is only heard partially. To me, awakening is the ability to hear God fully. But to fully hear means to fully disappear which mean there is no listener, nor any God speaking. There just is what is.
    Therefore, we must die, but who dies? Nobody dies. Then what happens? The computer program called mind is simply being upgraded to operate with maximum efficiency, as it was always intended to do.
    We are vessels for the universe to experience pure divinity. Unless one is experiencing this at all times, one still has work to do. Who does this work? Nobody. But the mind believes in something, it is these beliefs that must be examined until they disappear.
    Bless.

    The organism collects data and builds a model of itself, others and the environment.
    It takes the model to be reality and it's identity.
    Suffering( and other factors) may force the organism to collect more data or reevaluate its model.
    Re-evution of the model may result in a realisaton = " reality/ life isn't what I thought it was= initial awakening.
    The organism will modify or create a new model e.g enlightenment, non duality.
    The process will continue until a compete non identification with the model.
    The organism still has to deal with challenges that come with interacting with a dynamic environment, meeting survival needs, aging and eventual death.
    One thing is for certain once the awakening process has begun it cannot be stopped or reversed, it is the the end of the conceptual you and the world as you know it.
    Reality has not changed the thoughts about reality has changed.

    • @ashleyzito5414
      @ashleyzito5414 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      hi there! in my opinion/experience, if the anger seems uncontrollable, than you probably frequently suppressed it earlier in life, and the energy is trying to express itself now. so whats helpful, is to take as much time alone as you can to reflect and understand what your feeling and why so you dont act on it in harmful ways. But basically it will pass, if you keep letting yourself feel it. Of course, it can probably come up at seemingly inappropriate times, so thats what i mean by trying to take alone time to process it however you need. bc it will pass the more you let yourself feel it.
      suzanne has touched on this a bit also, taking about suppressed emotions, and how no matter what you suppressed, its going to have to come up again to fully pass through you. anger seems to be most common. so you are not alone, and you deserve to feel anger, even if you were convinced otherwise in the past. and now you have an opportunity to experience grace and feel it however you need without harming somebody else.

    • @Hermit-lo7bw
      @Hermit-lo7bw 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Simply put, anger is a result of obstructed desire. We want something and if we don’t get it, anger arises. We don’t want something and if we get it, anger arises. Unmet expectations result in disappointment which is a form of anger.
      I don’t think we have to know everything about anger to deal with it or even go back in our past to know its origin. The fact remains anger is an expression of resistance to life as it presents itself in the present moment. Knowing this clearly is already a powerful way of not allowing anger to control our thoughts, feelings, and actions. Keep it simple.

You can't be happy all the time as that's not happy. In order to be happy you have to be sad, or mad, or whatever. The enlightened nobodies aren't after happiness. It's not depression or depressing, it's simply a calm grateful neutrality to everything. Even though everything is nothingness. A quote of "mine" I share with the asleep is this, "Chasing happiness only leads to misery." Or a quote from Jed McKenna "Suffering just means you're having a bad dream, happiness means you're having a good dream. Enlightenment means getting out of the dream altogether." Point is, egoic concepts and beliefs like happiness or sadness or such are all fake, they are not there for the enlightened. We are aware that ego will try to keep making them seem real, but it's just ego's desperation to not fade away. The enlightened are simply just neutral observers to the dream. Happiness doesn't matter, doesn't mean anything.

      @@patriciaadducci6549That discomfort is the suffocation of ego. The more you go forward with the waking up, the more you are killing the ego, as the ego is where pain and discomfort appear from. It's your ego trying to reel the "you" back in, saying no no, don't go to truth, come back to what you believe, I need you to or else I die! The suffering you feel means it's working. There is no growth without suffering. Contentment is the enemy. It's like in one of Jed McKenna's books, I'll slightly paraphrase as I forget the exact wording. A person came to him and asked for advice, saying a person he knew was really depressed what should he do? Jed shrugged and said what am I going to do, tell him to get a book on how to deal with depression? The guy said please, he's really depressed. Jed said good, tell him to get more depressed. See the thing is, if you face that feeling, you embrace it, with an unbreakable willpower, and you let that suffering go through you like waves of radiation, yeah it hurts, it sucks, but you are killing the self, the ego, the YOU. Eventually once the last piece of that "you" is dead, the last layer of the onion is gone....the suffering and discomfort stops...no more radiation feeling as there is nothing left to destroy. "You" died.

    The student-teacher relationship can be fraught with issues. The teacher’s need for respect or attention or admiration can be fed by the student’s need or desire to feel special. It can be a vicious cycle where they each feed on each other’s personal issues.
    Yes, it’s another trap.
    I have been through this personally and it ended in true disaster-life-changing events including ostracism, banishment from the teacher’s circle, self-harm attempt (not me, I had been kicked out by then). It is EXTREMELY difficult to understand what’s happening while it’s happening. I needed distance, both physically and emotionally, before I could recognize how much delusion was happening.
    I need to emphasize that no one is “the bad guy” in this situation. Both parties are trapped in samsara, a world of suffering. In some ways, teacher’s suffering was GREATER than mine, even though from the outside it looked like I was the “victim.”
    As the texts say: “chained by the iron net of self-grasping, drowning in the ocean of samsara.”

    The trick is that while no point of view may confer an advantage (I call it The Law of the Conservation of Suck), the movement between ‘points of view’ does create a surge of energy.
    To change one’s POV one needs freedom from the self, and more specifically, the ability to curtail one’s inner dialog.
    This is a gateway. A starting point, more than an end goal.
    It is analogous to learning to read.
    Now, one needs to pick which book one might read.
    Being that we are morons, we assume that our task is to find (and read) that one book that may change our life, and that if we could only find and read that book our life will become The Best.
    No book can do that.
    Still, reading is worthwhile, and it is certainly preferable to only being able to chant some texts we memorized during our childhood.
    Carlos Castaneda, in his later books, describes this way of conceptualizing (the cultivation of) awareness in some detail.

    What is the meaning of suffering? That's easy just Google the definition. Here, I did it for you: the state of undergoing pain, distress, or hardship.
    Why do we undergo suffering? That's easy as well however is multi faceted. There's physical suffering, emotional suffering, and mental suffering. All are caused by many reasons from your own conditioning to mental illness to outside obstructions whether it be from systems in place or people in your life. Too many to count.
    That's why going to a "spiritual teacher/healer" tends to make things worse not better. Because most are grifters and the ones who aren't grifters aren't called spiritual teachers or healers. They're called therapists or psychiatrists or doctors. And even these can't solve your problems for you. However, a well trained one can help you identify the unique circumstances in your life that might be causing unnecessary suffering - so that you as the patient can learn to "fix" them yourself if in fact they can be "fixed".

    • @koalaed
      @koalaed 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Try it. Never feel shame. Try it out of curiosity. It can be very spiritual evolving and remove blockages. You’ve nothing to be ashamed of. Perhaps meditate beforehand and connect with your guides/higher self, sit within and feel whether it’s necessary or not. If it is, set an intention before hand. Intention is everything. I wouldn’t recommend alcohol because it’s toxic and can distort things. This can hinder progress, whereas plant options, not saying they can’t also hinder, but when used with intention and in moderation, can unlock things. I wouldn’t be where I am today entering the new earth without my usage of plant medicine. I’ve not always used it but have been through phases. Working through so much self healing of trauma from this life and past lives means there’s been heavy blockages at times, so it broke me open further at points along the way. There’s been years I’ve gone without. Listen to your intuition. I started meditating many years ago without, and when I experimented with cannabis my connection sped and and deepened. I used this until I could get to that point without (was my intention to get to that place of connection spiritually without any substance once I’d got it) needing it for that. This was a couple times a week for a couple hours each time, just to give you a rough idea of how much for me. I was SO blocked, my chakras were so unhealed. I’ve always been such a caring person so I had no idea how blocked my heart still was, not to mention the rest. To begin with, I used nothing and it was a perfectly great start. I went this way for a couple of years . Something just told me and guided me to cannabis due to major blockages, which I found out why (higher self/guides) before I tried. And it worked wonders. I had given up alcohol before heavily delving into meditation etc, so I was completely clear of this, and will never drink alcohol again. Some people may not need anything. Some mushrooms, Ayahuasca, etc etc. but anyhow, just listen, if it doesn’t serve you in any spiritual way then why bother continuing, at last at this time. And if it does, then perhaps it’s a one off, couple of sessions, or a phase. See how you go 😊

There’s a guy that’s pretty well-known on TH-cam that calls himself a Jnani, guru, Nirgun ….etc.. anyway, this is what apparently happened what you’re speaking about and then he abused his so-called, power by making sexual advances. I have a history of long emails, text messages, exposing that … if… I wanted …which I won’t. Also, was apparently contacted by a woman who had been involved with him who was warning me, etc. so my intuitiveness reported the channel and naturally stopped following that apparent guru 🙄 whatever he wants to call himself. I do want to add that in the story it did for a brief while felt like there was a readiness and openness, and that it did serve some sort of purpose for a while. This character seems to strictly follow what resonates which seems to be a lot of Paul Hedderman, Emerson, Jim Newman , and some of what you’re speaking on. Anyway, thank you for this talk.❤

    Energy is simple frequency. If the character you've created is resonating with that energy, allow the body to be there... The body is a mechanism, right? If the body is running on a frequency then allow it to flow in and flow out. It's doing it's job, so pay attention... Don't victimize your character. Observe and make changes if "YOU" will it. Break things down to nothing, you can build out whatever character you want. The problem as I see it in today's world is about having the need to control everything, and feeling like we control nothing (people in power do their darnedest to keep that a running theme)... Hence why people dive deep into religion, bad habits, unhealthy conditions (repeated pattens of energy), and so on... The body's capability to connect to what we see as the spiritual/energetic world (however you perceive it) is quite exceptional. It's now proven that EVERYTHING is energy, right. Frequency. Abraham Hicks, Gregg Braden, Joe Dispenza, Bruce Lipton, Kyle Cease, Andrew Huberman, Jason Shurka, etc, are a small collective of MANY others that are all correct... JUST like you. All journey's are impacting everyone. We are connected. AND through what I understand (including your perception) we are able to redefine this world, and bring in higher energy for a better human experience. ALL it requires is YOUR will for YOUR life.

    There are many "small beings" in a human body/mind - these beings want love, attention, contact, energy exchange - all in different forms - but all of this cant give any fulfilment - why ? because there are many shattered parts - where there should be ONE. Unless the process of consolidation of the ONE Being - the personal soul being - Jivatma - I'AM, reaches a certain point - there is no way of understanding all the little voices of "want" to be loved, to exchange energy, to be acknowledge etc. One day, when the fire of our heart fires up - its like an orgasm but it doesn't dissipate, and expands into a bigger Being that IS the true You. The Beingness of the personal unified soul searches automatically for contact whit other I'm beings - because it searches for its own reflection and union in the other Consciousnesses - just as I see my own reflection of being in you, There is no difference in the core of our beings, as there is no difference between my soul unified being and that of a star - the difference is only in the outer shell of our experiences ( gathered for centuries) and the capacity for transmitting and transmuting the force of the Source Being that gives birth to the universe, through the centre of your own being in your spiritual heart. All of this is not possible if you are only a "man" or a "woman" or this emotion of want, or that emotions of disappointment - this doesn't mean that you are no longer capable of sexual physical contact (most interactions between man and woman are based on sexual energy exchange to some degree) - its just you are no longer trapped in this narrow mode of handicapped connection and illusion of I'M a male/female body ...... Remember this - There are different levels of you, but to experience the other levels - beyond the mind body perception - you have to consolidate your personal I'M - its just like putting together a shattered mirror inside yourself - the broken pieces being parts of our shattered personalities. The many little pieces must become ONE. If the mirror is put together, cleaned, and the personal soul sees its own reflection in it - then the first part of your becoming is Complete, but there are higher levels of you r being- and to do that you will have to go through the mirror that is in your spiritual heart - the mirror will shine like the sun, it will burn, its light will consolidate your individual/personal soul more, each time you connect to it in your meditation, and at some point you will be able to go through it - be warned tho, this level of reconnection, can end your physical presence in this body.

It was fake, everyone in it was just a phantom character so the story of the dream could play out. Even the you in that dream was not you, no matter how many dreams one has, there is no "you" going to each dream or partaking, there is just the apparent "you" whoever that may be in that story. Dreams on top of dreams....turtles on top of turtles. If you know what that means, you know what that means. If you don't, you don't. When a dream ends, that "you" in the dream didn't wake up as that was never a person. At the end of a movie, that characters world and the characters themselves are all gone. Poof. They are only there during the experience of the story playing out. Even though they aren't real. Waking up is the death of the ego, the human character, the belief that is "you". The realization of, huh...there is no me, never was, never will be...neat. Similar to a lucid dream. If a dream character or phantom becomes aware it's all a dream then it's realized that it's not them experiencing the dream, but the dream experiencing itself. No you, just some pointless story playing out for mild amusement.

That said, it seems there are phases of letting go, and each phase has a little something you can use as a kind of life vest, or training wheels before fully releasing what you think you need. Over time you begin to feel you are able to let those props go. Teachers are props aren't they? Too many teachers have not let go, but are teaching, and I guess that's ok since the "death of the familiar" is a lifetime process for most...? Each in their own time..maybe not in this lifetime. I don't know if I've experienced this death you're speaking of, but I do feel an increased ability to let go. Allow what is, to be, and the fighting and struggle stops. This is not consistent, but gaining ground. Do you not think that unattached observation of the mind and its workings, is a way to at least ease suffering? And....Unfortunately we live in a society that makes it challenging to push back at the lie of better/worse more successful/ less relationships so that even someone with the best intentions, has to struggle to hold firm to the fact that we are not separate from one another, nor any living being.
