    understanding takes place after watching this video. Here and Now. It is so simple. Knowing that I am the here and now,why would I limit myself to the body and mind, however it doesnt mean that I will justify all my actions or avoid my responsibilities based on the understanding here and now >> that would be another thought. I will let this dream body and mind do their activites,while "I am" sit and rest at here and now (not actually sit and rest, I am here and now).

  • @suzannewoitowich
    @suzannewoitowich 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you! Rupert...I have a question for you.
    I have an experience of consciousness traveling somewhat throughout my body in my meditation. I seem to locate awareness in my head or in my heart or in my belly. Today I put labels on these places as mind, love, and being relative to the place. When I center on God as a one pointed place of focus I have an opening out experience. My consciousness seems to look for a location to be in or rest in....What do you suggest I do or not do in my meditation to settle my awareness and mind?
    Thank you again for your consistently wise words.
    Suzanne

    Limitations are not what they seem to be. The experience of limitations prove consciousness iz truly infinite because to not be able to experience limitations would be a limiting in of itself. I like saying I am not just a body but to those who don’t yet understand this I must begin with stating I am not this body which gets them to release their belief just enough to be interested in exploring it more openly and to explore their beliefs iz to explore their own essence that iz veiled by the mind of apparent objectified limitations. Take away the appearances of formed objects the shapes that are defined by the perception of having particular dimensions and there iz nothing left but infinite dimensionless emptiness, like
    Rupert says in another video it’s not something and it’s not nothing.
    There iz a reality that the unreal seemingly veils and the veil iz transparent but only appears to not be from the perspective of the mind hypnotized by and obsessed with the objects it iz projecting and perceiving.

    Where is this dimensionless consciousness while sleeping, whether consciousness also sleeping or whether consciousness also need sleep?

    • @zain4019
      @zain4019 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awareness is ever-present, including in sleep. In deep sleep, there are no objects, so awareness cannot be found in relation to an object, but is there, on its own. It is the same as the sun shining onto planets and asteroids, and thus, we know the suns light. Without its reflection in deep sleep, it seems it is not, yet it is.

    • @kalyanidivakar
      @kalyanidivakar 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@zain4019 close eyes , no objects, may not have thoughts also but still aware of awareness but during sleep no awareness till regain awareness means no sleep at that moment. Every body assume that able to regain awareness after sleep means awareness was there while sleeping. Coma patients have no awareness though body is functioning, what is the reason.

  • @nacho74
    @nacho74 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This was great. There is like if one tries out some kind of Meditation and has this sensitive, intensive feeling getting one with everything without any boundaries or limitations and as it was said that consciousness is the dimensionless eternal here and infinite now, the existence itself.
    I would go even further and say that space and time do not exist the way we are thinking of it but rather in our minds. Everything can be explained with relations. An object is relative to space and time and an observer. The experience for colours is for example relative to other colours, light sensitivity ( amount of wavelengths ) and contrast etc..
    But although there are very nice thoughts about it, this doesn't answer what consciousness really is. What is this eternal and infinite here and now, existence? What is this sensitivity? Why is there a sensitivity at all? What exactly is this dimensionless existence? Why have for example robots no consciousness? Why does this consciousness or even awareness have this subjective experience/ why is consciousness maybe this subjective view?
    These questions aren't easy to answer, yes but I am still thinking about it to find the ultimate answer and I am already finished ;)

      Close your eyes. Feel the sensation of your face and head. Who is the one that feels it? In which space does it appear? Who is the one that knows that? Be that, as you open your eyes.

    Why does infinite consciousness need to see itself through the perspective of a body and thus lead itself to unnecessary suffering? Why not do what the Buddha achieved and strive for nirvana without remainder... the complete cessation of everything, including consciousness and any further rebirth and bypass all this nonsense. ^^

    • @tomaskoptik2021

      Gautama died in pain and his own sh*t. Look it up. No enlightment for the body. Form is always a pain. Consciousness (Illumination) is the consequence of Light (One). One exists always and cannot not exist. Therefore it cannot not generate the Illumination (Reflection). Consciousness is a reflection of unconsciouss Unity (One, Light). Nobody has ever seen the Light, we can only see the Illumination from it. It´s pointless to "fix" the consequence (consciousness) you can only be aligned with the Light (unconsciousness). Meaning you cannot avoid pain you can only be ok with it and not suffer. You can be aware of your own body (consciousness) that´s maximum "you" can do. You cannot do anything with the Light you can only be aligned with it through awareness of the Illumination. Buddha is sort of a name for the Light, no human being can call himself Buddha, that´s a modern misinterpretation of what Gautama was and did. It´s an endless loop of eternal Unconsciousness (One) and its ever-transforming body of Consciousness (All). Light and the Illumination from it. Just enjoy every moment of your experience and forget trying to be the Light. You already are that :)

      @@tomaskoptik2021 Siddhartha Gautama was an ordinary human being just like you or me except for an important difference, he fully awakened to ultimate reality after contemplating the nature of all phenomena. Gautama taught that all phenomena are impermanent and all sentient beings born into this world system are prone to birth, old age, sickness and death. As such Siddhartha at 80 years of age became a good example of all he taught and when Gautama entered Parinirvana he was at peace and totally released from Samsara.

Possible. No-one can not-be, every (human) being stays as a record in akash, but it´s possible to be in veeeeeeeeeeeeery slow frame rate. No Nirvana for anybody but a peaceful existence in a density (geometry) of your preference...highly possible :)
