I woke up to enlightenment today. So subtle I had missed it all this time. All I had was stories, and concepts- all obviously unreal now. A great work of art but nothing more.
Hi Alan, Do you have any videos by Rupert where he explains what "prior to Consciousness" means. Nisagardatta used this term. I think its simply that state where there is just a "knowing.".....no beingness, no I-amness as even these are known and arise out of consciousness which knows itself through the finite mind. After listening to this video, I almost don't care about "prior to consciousness," except I was wondering what Nisaggardatta was referring to.
It's just impossible to grasp it with one's mind. I can't say my inner understanding is very deep. I just feel I am and I sense that all around is full with the same Being as me. For the present moment I consider it's more than enough) Maybe in time my understanding will be more profound, but I don't set any goal here. Thank you, Alan and Rupert for the Wisdom of Reality ❤️
OMG 🙏 what a teaching! It's a silent blast that crumbles the beliefs of separate independent self. Rupert took me as a child of his own and showed the ultimate truth with simply as simple as blinking eyes. My heart bows down him with utmost respect love and immense devotion. He's a true bodhisattva 🙏🌹🙏 Lots of love and thanks to you Allen. ❤️
We shift from the nature of the experience to the infinite field of awareness in which all experiences arise and subside. The activity of mind occurs in the vastness of awareness. So we perceive all external constructs from the space behind the body mind.
The only thing we ever experience is our experience. And it is just as it is. ( "There is no knower of the knowing and the knowing doesn't know the known. The knowing just knows the knowing." 28:21. - R. Spira)
...doesn't happen often. Another favorite is lucid dreaming but also doesn't happen often. Wonder what Rupert Spira says about lucid dreaming. Thank you too so much Alan Neachell.
That's what we are: Being only knowing is No-Thing; Being No-Thing can't be differentiated from anything, that's why we, only being knowing, are everything, corresponding to the Heart-Sutra: Form is Emptyness, Emptyness is Form.
This is so wonderfully meditative! Listening to the explanation or discussion on similar topics in one assembly really me to the core of being the source itself.!!
I am you and we are everything and no-thing, we are emptiness and fullness in the same point. The point is the ground of being wich is reflection of our true nature..
10:25 "only awareness is aware". Much appreciated as it is so easy to slip into the belief that it is "I" the body mind that is aware 😢 even for those of us who readily admit that it is awareness that is aware of the body-mind and not the other way around. This has been a long-lasting point of stuckness for me. It is easy for me to admit that I-Awareness, my essential Beingness remains unaffected by the loss of body parts such as arms and limbs but I hit a snag when it comes to the head 😅 However, something does seem to be lost.and if not awareness then what?
It's interesting to look in direct experience (no description or commentary) and see that we can't find an experiencer. Experiencer is a concept or idea.
Another well made compilation. From my limited mind/perspective the statements of Spira just always seem rather abstract and speculative. And I do wonder how many actually can relate to this not only intellectually but also existentially?
I had understood what he was saying intellectually, for some time, then one night as I was contemplating it, for whatever reason awareness itself eclipsed the sense of self I had taken for granted for 50 years. It lasted for maybe a second or two and I can’t say that since then my experience of “myself” has been radically different, but I’m hopeful that this is the beginning of a process that will gradually deepen.
Just doing Rupert’s meditations specially yoga meditations I can now embody his teachings.His teachings points really to the SELF , GOD, TRUTH.....the words doesn’t matter
Thank you so much for creating these videos. I really love listening to them, it's amazing how you put them together. Just perfect! Small question... Every now and then a commercial pops up in the middle of your video, is there a way to avoid those? Thanks again!

Hey Benjamin, TH-cam add the advertisements. I hate them too. I think it's something to do with me using copyright music. I have stopped doing that now.
suman joshi We could call body mind a vibration of myself. The concept of body mind is no problem but the belief that they exist as independent entities is a problem. Mind is not a container, it is only the present thought and perception as a vibration of myself.
Hello! Could you tell me, where the beginning of this collection (the first 10 minutes) is extracted from? The name of the meditation or dialogue. Thank you!
I'm sorry, I'm not very good at keeping a note of where the clips come from. Each compilation may be from different retreats and even different years. They seem to put themselves together 😊
Through maintaining silence I notice one thing over a period of time 45 minutes later the thought process are shrivelling, but I'm unable to continue further
The effective way to become established as presence is to relax body and mind for short moments whenever the reminder comes to do so. Trying to force long periods as awareness doesn't work as it turns that which is natural and ever present into a practice. How can you practice, that which you already are? All we can do is to notice ourselves as presence.
@@balajiravichandran7310 Absolutely not! Right now, pay attention to your room without describing or judgement. What's your experience when you do this?

Some Vedanta teachings use consciousness to mean only experiencing (apparent world) and so pure knowing or emptiness would be prior to that. Rupert uses knowing and consciousness synonymously and that works fine as we trace our way back from known to knowing. Buddhism talks about the void which would be prior to consciousness.
It's interesting to see that the actual truth can't be spoken. Nisagaddata uses one model to try to explain his experience and Rupert uses another. They both speak from direct experience but we should avoid getting stuck in any model and rather, become our own authority using direct experience.
@@alanneachell9092 Alan thank you very much. Without words or language I was at peace. Then trying to understand my awakening for the past 2 years by reading and placing words to my experience threw me more into the mind trap. Your explanation now allows me to put to rest the idea of "prior to consciousness" and simply rest as the Self. I enjoy Rupert's explanations and metaphors, so thank you again for explaining Rupert's model which I find simpler.
Awareness and thought are NOT the same. Awareness can perceive reality directly. A mental translation is not necessary to perceive reality. A thought is only a description or verbalization or facsimile of the perception that comes before. So the thought is at least two steps removed from awareness.

Alan Neachell I apologise for the way this sounded, rather too blunt. I meant no personal offence. Yes, I understand you are doing a good thing posting RS’s talks, and thank you. My ‘frustration’ is with so many people posting talks by spiritual teachers - none of whom choose to use a new-agey type soundtrack as they speak, or presumably they would include it in their talks - and WHY people then decide it is incomplete without a soundtrack? Is his talk really incomplete or missing something by not having a musical accompaniment?
@@consideredwhisper Its important to see that all opinions are equal. Its perfectly ok to have preferences but these should allow for others to have theirs. My own practice is to notice my preference but drop the judgements which makes life very tolerable. Attempting to reason with reality is a total waste of energy and causes us dis-ease.

Again, you Rubert don't really know what you are talking about..this is not about beyond witness..this is only about codependency and manifestation.. Sorry!
@@alanneachell9092 But you know that..you cannot describe the ultimate reality with words and Rubert is using to much words and pointing to wrong direction. He should rather say that wich is - unborn, unmanifested and unconditioned. Or our true nature is what is before everything including - our true nature..
He says exactly that. He sometimes makes small concessions to people who have a strong belief in a separate self. His whole teaching is about leading people finally to what you are describing. Thanks for commenting, you're always welcome 💕

*Monet Refuses the Operation*
_BY LISEL MUELLER_
Doctor, you say there are no haloes
around the streetlights in Paris
and what I see is an aberration
caused by old age, an affliction.
I tell you it has taken me all my life
to arrive at the vision of gas lamps as angels,
to soften and blur and finally banish
the edges you regret I don’t see,
to learn that the line I called the horizon
does not exist and sky and water,
so long apart, are the same state of being.
Fifty-four years before I could see
Rouen cathedral is built
of parallel shafts of sun,
and now you want to restore
my youthful errors: fixed
notions of top and bottom,
the illusion of three-dimensional space,
wisteria separate
from the bridge it covers.
What can I say to convince you
the Houses of Parliament dissolve
night after night to become
the fluid dream of the Thames?
I will not return to a universe
of objects that don’t know each other,
as if islands were not the lost children
of one great continent. The world
is flux, and light becomes what it touches,
becomes water, lilies on water,
above and below water,
becomes lilac and mauve and yellow
and white and cerulean lamps,
small fists passing sunlight
so quickly to one another
that it would take long, streaming hair
inside my brush to catch it.
To paint the speed of light!
Our weighted shapes, these verticals,
burn to mix with air
and change our bones, skin, clothes
to gases. Doctor,
if only you could see
how heaven pulls earth into its arms
and how infinitely the heart expands
to claim this world, blue vapor without end.

@@alanneachell9092 thank you alan, you are doing a very very great job... youtube is not 🤐😉
Thaaaaaaaank you for what you are doing 🥰❤🌹🎈⚘👍⚘❤⚘
Again, you Rubert don't really know what you are talking about..this is not about beyond witness..this is only about codependency and manifestation.. Sorry!
We're talking about our direct experience rather than a concept 🙏
@@alanneachell9092 But you know that..you cannot describe the ultimate reality with words and Rubert is using to much words and pointing to wrong direction. He should rather say that wich is - unborn, unmanifested and unconditioned. Or our true nature is what is before everything including - our true nature..
He says exactly that. He sometimes makes small concessions to people who have a strong belief in a separate self. His whole teaching is about leading people finally to what you are describing.
Thanks for commenting, you're always welcome 💕
nice collection but not easy to listen to with constant interrupting by advertisments! Sorry, have to stop it.
