Thanks for all your efforts to help people waking up! Last night around 4 am I had a dream walking in a street full of people and vendors , I was self inquiring and had a big shift , then my body was standing on the street but my soul was flying around , then I woke up with an intense headache that lasted a few hours , I meditated after that , I cried over emotions I could not recognized but I felt very relieved and brought me to hours of intense peace, The dream was vivid and intense , kind scary , I don’t want to analyze this , I just wanted to share the experience, I don’t talk to anyone about spiritual awakening, Good Night 💤
Oh my this is so simple and pure and accessible. I have to resist the urge to share it because I’ve recently realized how precious it is to watch another waking up. It’s so precious I just wanna watch and support…☺️🥰🌬️

I don't want to wake up but, you are forcing my hand..
It seems to me that one difficulty in letting go of the narrative and memory of past, is that at the same time, we know we need memory to function in the world. that is the slight fear, yet intinctively I see it can't be true that we would lose our memory.
Everything is starting to make sense. I'm a little over half way through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies Three-Year Program. Now, it's no wonder why becoming a tool for spirits who are curing people, situations and so forth are putting me through the wringer of your videos. To be able to channel healing powers, it's necessary that I totally discard my old identity, clear myself out, expand and become one-pointed in my focus. Then, the spirits can do their work through me. It's a complete transformation process.
This is so simple.. perhaps it’s why when I read the following quote it resonated with me SO much, I have to get back to it “When meditation is mastered the mind is unwavering like the flame of a lamp in a windless place”
One narrative I have is that "I'm on the outside looking in". That I will not experience the experiences others are having. A friend told me that 'I am indeed on the inside, believing that I'm on the outside looking in.'.
“That’s the narrative I’ve been using to stabilize myself in the mind,” you said. That’s a very interesting way of putting it. Fantastic! And we do seem to use a narrative to keep us in a narrative. We even have metanarratives-narratives about our narratives.
All these videos are really great, no practice needed indeed. Mind, luminous and contentless ... + Nice background together with the light breath of the wind.
With any inner dialogue I encounter, I ask ‘who is thinking this thought, and perhaps I need to stop that inquiry and ignore any thoughts or concepts, Dharma? Anyway~ much Gratitude to you Angelou ❤
Brilliant 👏 Your videos are always so profound. Abandon practice, abandon concepts, just BE. But isn't "(big M) Mind" still something that can be grasped and identified with. To me, even contemplating is doing too much. I think you are really pointing to something much more primordial and subtle; something akin to the "source of thought," or what preceeds thought: emptiness/unknowing/void.
'The mind or the mouth cannot act of their own accord', said Ramana Maharshi, 'Recognise the force of the Divine Will and keep quiet!' That does require practice ('practice makes perfect') ---because we habitually and impulsively engage in dualistic thought and perception.
Yes! I think many spiritual aspirants can use this because most, albeit unwittingly are caught up in what you described…probably myself included:-) Nuance Nuance Nuance!!! 🙏
It just goes around and around in a vicious cycle that doesn’t make sense. If I think who am I? And the answer I hear is well I don’t know because I’ve discounted everything that I do know. Then I ask well who are you that doesn’t know? In return… I don’t know? 🤷🏼♀️
Shit that's scary. My ego flighting hard and whining "why do I have to let go? Everyone else seems to get benefit from their various identities/affiliations." I love some of my beliefs. 😭
Mostly we aren’t even aware of what we are believing! Start by acknowledging what you believe, then work with the benefits each gives you. If you want to drop them after that it’ll happen naturally
Ok, totally up for it. Have been applying something similar but I like this approach. Quick question how does this apply at a job? When people we work with continue to refer to things they remember about one’s past?
I've been backing myself into a corner while doing self inquiry where as I am asking myself who/where I am and observing the thoughts my mind starts trying to try to create a 3rd party point of view . . . Like I expect to feel/see myself outside my body. This distracts me and I circle it, trying to resolve it. How would you accept or integrate a striving for a differing point of view during the meditation? I've not been able to bypass it by observing it and am trying to determine if I should continue inquiring into it. I hope this makes any sense to someone.
When I do self enquiry and ask who am I, there are no responses. I put myself in a quiet state of mind with no mental chatter, then ask the question. Am I doing it wrong? I'm finding that I can potter around my workshop for hours without any thoughts or emotions, but all of a sudden, I have a very intense reaction of anger or sadness in response to a thought that just pops into mind. It sometimes takes a minute or two to realise it's just a thought. Walking in public is a similar scenario. I'm not into any spiritual doctrines or religion, so I have no linguistic reference to the experience. Any thoughts or pointers?
When you ask, 'Who am I?' it may seem like there are no answers. But look for the source of attention. Look for the sense of the 'I' that asked the question. It's there somewhere. The Maharshi method of self inquiry has you hold on to this sense of I (the I-thought which is a precursor to all other thoughts) until it is transcended
Good question. The answer is because there is a tremendous amount of resistance to this natural process in human consciousness. As we wake up we become acutely aware of this, so become interested in ways of addressing the habituated resistance patterns.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake resistance is one thing (a natural thing as well), could the other side of the coin be "pushing things"? in other words; hesitation and wanting. I'd say leaving both aside, is the key.
@@nicolacotti8071 yes both hesitation (aversion) and wanting are intimately intertwined with identity. There’s often a good amount of “work” unwinding these tendencies after awakening.
Language and words are not to be trusted! :) every symbolic expression is a random artifact of an infinite ezpression and can't be interpreted or relied on so let go of worrrrrrdddsss. Ok like use them when you need to *but mist of the time they kind of suck * and it it takes soo much work convey anything youre basically acting it out and the words are a melodic accompaniment to reality

Angelo you are incredible. I'm gonna get this
Yah you are! We all are!!
Mu!!!
Gratitude.
Laser focus…pure awareness…don’t move…no where to go…just illuminous without content❤
I like how the one-pointedness arises, because really, where else is there to look? Brilliant and relieving.
Yes!

that’s what I needed 🙏❤️
i really appreciate all your works. Thank you so much 💓

Fractal tail
my 47 pointed approach may need a little recalibration 🤔
👌😁
😂
Most relatable comment 😂
😂😂 your could mine. Bigger is better right?
I use a 68 point process.
Very good, great pointing. I love it.
You always make me smile 😊 🙏🏽

Glad you like them!
Nice video! Are you simply always awake? 😀

I want to hear more about the one pointed approach. 💜🙏🏻💜
Can you make a video about desire for human love?
Ill be asking until you do it on every video, since every few vids dont work:)
Insanely awesome video!
Thx again
Yes! I think many spiritual aspirants can use this because most, albeit unwittingly are caught up in what you described…probably myself included:-) Nuance Nuance Nuance!!! 🙏
Could you speak on the methods of consciously working on rage and doubt, which seem as if they are one in the same?
It just goes around and around in a vicious cycle that doesn’t make sense. If I think who am I? And the answer I hear is well I don’t know because I’ve discounted everything that I do know. Then I ask well who are you that doesn’t know? In return… I don’t know? 🤷🏼♀️

Ok, totally up for it.

Quick question how does this apply at a job?
When people we work with continue to refer to things they remember about one’s past?
Thinking Descartes,.. Cogito ergo sum...
I've been backing myself into a corner while doing self inquiry where as I am asking myself who/where I am and observing the thoughts my mind starts trying to try to create a 3rd party point of view . . . Like I expect to feel/see myself outside my body. This distracts me and I circle it, trying to resolve it.
How would you accept or integrate a striving for a differing point of view during the meditation? I've not been able to bypass it by observing it and am trying to determine if I should continue inquiring into it.
I hope this makes any sense to someone.
See that a as a thought forming. Then ask who or what am I now?
Waw... Tnx
When I do self enquiry and ask who am I, there are no responses. I put myself in a quiet state of mind with no mental chatter, then ask the question. Am I doing it wrong? I'm finding that I can potter around my workshop for hours without any thoughts or emotions, but all of a sudden, I have a very intense reaction of anger or sadness in response to a thought that just pops into mind.

I missed the background music.
Hmmm.... "I" is the "center of narrative"... Like objects can have a "center of gravity"...
Do you think that my struggle with sleep is related to spirituality? Like the need to control and get a certain outcome?
Can you talk about failure at life and school?
Oh I know I can wake up but I also know most entities in this realm are soulness NPCs. Maybe all. I'm good.
🤯
How do I know I’m not awake?
May I suggest working or at least reading A COURSE IN MIRACLES ? ahhhh....😌
What happens to the narrative of motherhood ? With small children, isnt that attachment healthy and needed?
Nostalgia narrative, its like a attachment disorder.
Why would you want to accelerate to most natural thing that ever "exists"?
Good question. The answer is because there is a tremendous amount of resistance to this natural process in human consciousness. As we wake up we become acutely aware of this, so become interested in ways of addressing the habituated resistance patterns.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake resistance is one thing (a natural thing as well), could the other side of the coin be "pushing things"? in other words; hesitation and wanting. I'd say leaving both aside, is the key.
@@nicolacotti8071 yes both hesitation (aversion) and wanting are intimately intertwined with identity. There’s often a good amount of “work” unwinding these tendencies after awakening.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake so how come that time is still relevant here? 🙂
@@nicolacotti8071 only you can answer that ;)

Very destabilizing video. Not popular at school, were you? 😂🤣
