Reminds me of a poem that I wrote a few years back: Now that my now doesn’t hurt, everything that takes me from it does 💞
Love that 🥰🌈☄️
I thought you might 💞🤗
@@amycater6045 Your poem brought immediate tears to my eyes🦋💧💙💧🦋 Thank you for sharing 🙂
@@violinwithRosemary sounds like you are a kindred soul who fought hard to accept and then embrace and then become the present moment 💞
@@amycater6045 still feels like a work in progress even though saying that doesn't fit with message of Angelo's video😊happy to have found his channel, very helpful. Greetings to you Amy, wishing you a nice day🌷💕🦋💕🌷
Time is Nothing
Gratitude is Everything
Let your LIGHT shine
Let your LIGHT be the change YOU are looking for
Drop all references. Practice the state of allowing. Don't label or grasp.
Surrender to the moment, experience the magic of appearance 🧎♂️
Give up referencing. Live a life of freedom. 🙏
No practice needs to be done because it’s practicing itself😊
I keep thinking “hmm I should ask Angelo what my practice needs to be now” but alas any practice right now would require thought(which is fine of course) I can use thought if I need to.
This is the practice, right now every second.
The self is quite fluid, it’s as you describe in many videos. I feel it as hearing, or as sensing, or as a thought or as that vast field, all of it and none of it.
And I can say that I still don’t understand any of it, not even a single shred of it, but the best part is that I don’t even need to😊
Wonderful
😻🔥❤️🌈
absolutely beautiful
thank you 🙏❤️
Welcome
Gratitude.
Riveting question for non-dual seekers…how do we make sure our lives are in control or we are safe? That’s often the one thing that keeps us tied or referencing isn’t it. Love the video and background 💖🙏🏼
Another perfectly timed video! Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was contemplating last night and then this morning lying there in bed and just really feeling absolutely no separation and such intimacy with a moment that can never be pinned down. And so I have really been just looking at how thoughts reflect one another. The natural reality has no opinion about itself therefore no thoughts about life ever really are anything.. The natural reality, the isness that we all are is never really commenting on itself. Why would it need to. It is complete. and there is nothing outside of itself to know its self in relationship to. I have been doggedly looking at this like 24 seven for 4 1/2 years now and sometimes it feels like all the “knowledge“ that I have acquired is trying to get crammed into one moment of time but the time is the knowledge! And so nothing can be squeezed into a moment of time that doesn’t exist!
and now i will either explode or not become. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😜😜😜😜
Wonderful! I love the dedication 😃
I forget the exact wording, but your comment reminds me of that zen maxim: "the wild goose has no intention of casting its reflection and the pond has no mind to retain it"
@@integralsonic oh that’s beautiful! yes, that is the “feeling” i have as of late. thanks for sharing.
Thanks!
Welcome
Ooh, that was great. Kudos!
That being said, even the Gods go to war with each other. Look at what Krisna teaches Arjuna. For me no relationship, no nonrelationship. No reference. No nonreference. No appearance. No nonappearance.
One of your best back rounds!😀
Agreed.
Lol reminds of the highway I see when I’m tripping
@@xCristianAndres Don't trip and drive. 🙃
Woh. I can’t decide if the background or shirt is more of an awesome fit with the message.
Can it be both? 😀
Ahh. Yes it can.
Man i Give up i dont Unterstand.. Taking the next Bus Good bye
There's a bus for everyone...... but really it's a train. 🤣💜
Beautiful again
Thanks
Welcome
I am reading his book at the moment and really try to understand this stuff. This nonduality thing is either a real thing or a bunch of people making themselves believe something that is just a huge mindf**k. Is this just a new spiritual trend? Or is more behind it? It has the vibe of a sect, with those "inside" that "got it". And you have the "outsiders" that just don't get it. I am not sure if I should invest more time in it. It reminds me of some born again Christians that had this "unexplainable experience" with God. Same kind of vibe.
As someone with what sounds like a similar background or path, and a similar skepticism, what I’d say to your comments are that all you really can do is try it on and see if it fits. As far as investment in time goes, I have struggled with a routine practice… why sit for 30 minutes every day counting my breaths, seems like hypnosis… what I have found with Angelo’s content is that you can apply it to any moment, no new age-y special sauce of ‘believe this and do it for 45 days and all you wildest dreams will come true’.
I guess that’s what keeps me here and away from others, it’s all about what I find in my experience and no one is asking for donations or pledges to a person or a system or anything like that. I haven’t experienced any significant shift, but I will say some of the pointers found here do slowly open ‘something’. Anyway, just my perspective, b/c I too have a low tolerance for bull shit given how crazy the world is, and knowing what P. T. Barnum said a long time ago.
Happy journeying!
Yeah it definitely can seem that way, and nothing the people teaching this awakening stuff say should be taken in blind faith as the truth, rather what they’re trying to do is point to your direct experience of the present moment, which is undeniably here right now.
Investigate your own experience, that’s all you need to do.
This stuff is quite tricky to talk about, Angelo could and does definitely explain it more clearly :) above all else tho don’t take it in blind faith
Well, the good thing is...you don't have to join or pay anything, blindly trust anyone, believe in anything or even conceptually understand it to try. This whole thing is..there's a door. Have a sincere look...which is mostly feel into to be clear. There really is a lot out there about this...but a lot of content like Mindvalley or "law of attraction," are referring more to positive thinking really..ya know like...believe in yourself! Thats all nice but it's just not this, that's all.
If you wanna know if it's real...try sitting and just waiting. And trust your direct experiences. Who cares what any teacher says. They are just showing you a signpost or a map...they can never show you the actual territory. At some point, your own experience will tell you..and whatever shows up shows up. No one else you need to trust over that. Learning via books, videos and even lectures from someone experienced is like learning to drive but never touching a car. Having said that, people can fall into traps and do stuff like..think they're somehow more special than anyone else etc...so whatever happens, be kind and compassionate, meet your responsibilities and face up to your own stuff when it comes to you.
Hope this give you some sense of this stuff.
Thank you all for your friendly replies. I am aware of pointers. Since six months I am using Sam Harris meditation app that is full of self inquiries, I am reading about nonduality, watching videos.... I probably need a break from it and don't try to force it with a crowbar.
I know what you mean. If you really want to know beyond knowing then find out fir yourself. Take the one pointed approach as described in the book and find out what’s on the other side. Why not ?
great video.
Even though we cannot paraphrase, summarize, or analogize reality or being, and therefore cannot speak of it in any particular way, we also intuit the shifting (or exploding) our identity-matrix away from the appearances and beliefs and onto (into?) that unknowable void... if only i didn't resist it so pathologically... it's a truly sick joke. Another brilliant video, a continued thanks!
Also don’t overlook that the void is none other that biting into an apple, taking one step, burping.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake I know it's dangerously deceptive to refer to it in lofty philosophical terms, or its a way that the psychological self tries to hijack it for its own benefit, or self-preservation. Thank you for the addition/correction!
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake and I'm realizing and feeling that the frustration is an energetic drive of its own, and yet the same energy is actually also my interest in all of these things... they aren't different, both completely impersonal, completely unconscious (collectively) but also the basis for everything in my psychological self. So, when I can be more and more in those rifts and tears between thoughts the more I can melt into the impersonal or transpersonal, fumbling with words a bit here, but the big take away is let the energy do what it wants to do and that will fuel anything I wanted to do anyway, therefore the frustration can be a very good thing, actually!
Hello Angelo. Have you made a video discussing awakening and assertiveness/self esteem? I feel like as I've started this journey towards awakening I've become a bit of a pushover. How does one expand their sense of self while still maintaining boundaries from those who can be harmful?
dig it!
Another great video, thanks
Welcome
I refer to my Inner Authority. Pretty clear by the time I act.
I feel like you made similar videos like Lets go deep and after non duality? If they are, it feels like getting tossed around with no one to be tossed around. I just ask what is the view Im holding...and something seems to give up and then the tossing begins and all that can be done is surrender..the moment I tried to see it to understand it more clearly, the "view" returns and the tossing stops. There's no intimacy felt though. Am I just tripping myself up ? Since the first shift, and the break between distinguishing in and out, this is experience that is very prominent..if its a shift....I think ultimately, I wanna know if this will lead to greater compassion...or how it leads to block 10 of the ox herding. I have no use for altered states if thats what I'm doin...help?
Nothing to add, you’re right on track. The willingness to be tossed is key… compassion will come online more and more over time
❤️👍
I reference the holy Bible and prayer to God. I listen to men like Jim Brown, Derick Prince. However, there no more powerful way than to pray and read the holy bible.
I can relate to what's being said in this video with agreeableness of a particular affinity from my past state of being a decade ago.
However, at present, I would instead hold caution against what's being described.
It sounds to me more like embracing a death to either chaos or nothingness, in abandoning acceptance of relevant knowledge, where the remnant of spirit left to observe may be (mis)led by the observation; wherein that leading may be unhinged from right order.
I do believe that the highest perspective knows there is such a thing as true & false, right & wrong. To accept that is to value a form of consistant order of alignment in one's identity. In the paradigm of that identity the aim is to hold ideas which are good & true as the things to be referenced in using perspective for perception of observation.
This to me is the difference between mere spirituality versus spiritual religion. The word religion is to mean "relinking" lesser and greater identities of awareness in spirit.
All good truth, love & wisdom, describes the ideal. Good luck in your journey there.
If there is a way to live by constantly referencing and a way to live through non-referencing, and by thinking I am referencing, then is it not a matter of "There is no try. Do or do not"? C'est la vie! It's also more... and less. If they go together because there exists in the first place, are swinging on stars and moonbeams in jars finding roots; living in both? Or would you rather be a fish? 💛
"The ordinary everyday consciousness we have leaves out more than it takes in"
@Ann It's ok to admit failure, it's in that space learning takes place. That still doesn't encompass all that not doing is/isn't. If one attempts to drink from a cup you either make it to the lips or you do not. There is a subtle but powerful difference in the emotion behind trying and the will of doing/non-doing. 💛With the least effort, move within the space of things. We can find our way though without needing to be sharpened.
@Ann All the joy, all the suffering, every time two bodies in space collides, every thing, everything above and below the sensed must go through this infinity of existence, in all infinite permutations. The sum of all this is. It just is. And Is is a far larger infinity than the infinite illusion that is also apparent. My way isn't one of hope. My way is the down of water, where all becomes the ocean. And so the isness of nature fills me. I come full circle. Me and is. Is and me. Isme.
@Ann So let's be more sincere and less serious. 💛🙂
Alzeimers Light in a hostel environment.
Now that's a cool shirt. Looks like Dr Manhattan. Where did you get that one?
Saw the film revolver and it was unexpcexted cleared me up, now i get it it all was pointing to one, ego was still part of the one, but not the one..
Just needed one good look, one clear seeing.
And i assume the clearing starts now.
First fear barier appiered, i was smiling, but it does seem abit scary, will try again.
Awesome, it's such a powerful movie
Question -- have you noticed a difference in your memory, now that there is no reference point, and no where to refer from? Experience passing with so little impact...has it changed your experience of memory?
A question not related to the video, but I really could use some help here… : I noticed that a couple of months ago I slowly stopped feeling the emotions in my body. I mean the bodily sensations, the contractions that accompany sadness, anger, fear, excitement , etc. For ex., I lost a dear friend in April, and when I think about him I cry, I intellectually know that I am sad (I mean, in my mind I know I’m sad), but the pain of sadness doesn’t appear in my chest, or my gut. It’s very weird (like so many things that have been happening to me, spiritually, this year).
It’s not all that bad, it’s like a “fake equanimity”, so many times it’s a good thing to have, but I think it’s in my way to further development, since I can’t do any emotional work. Is it going to go away at any point? Thank you.
How do you know the equanimity is fake? Is there reactivity in other areas of your life?
There’s reactivity only in very specific areas (a couple of fixations, regarding my family). Sometimes I have judgements about something that’s happening that I think it’s not fair, and it annoys me, or I get very frustrated about some friend’s political views, for example, but I always notice these thoughts, then I think “it’s just thoughts “, and I can easily let go. But in these cases, there isn’t the bodily discomfort that I would certainly have before.
Now, whenever I have some contraction, or emotion, even if it´s very subtle or weak, I hang to them and try to feel them as much as I can, trying not to transform them into suffering.
@@75accamargo I think you’re in a good place with equanimity. You can still recognize the conditions for sadness, respond appropriately but have no internal reaction. That’s great. Nothing has gone wrong. That little bit of remaining doubt will subside with clear non-dual realization.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Thank you so much, that´s so good to know, specially from you. 🙂The one doubt that remains for me is: I haven´t had a full awakening yet. I had an experience that surely changed my point of view about life, myself, the truth and everything else, that brought me subsequent presence, equanimity and stillness (the stillness hasn´t gone!), but it was not in the parameters of a complete awakening. Still, I can identify with a lot of post-awakening videos, inquiries, and answers from other people here. I know it´s not the same for everyone, maybe that´s just it... Anyway, thank you again. 🙂
@@75accamargo why do you not think it was awakening?
Hi Angelo,
Are there any ways to contact your directly? I wrote you through the form on your website but unfortunately didn’t get a reply.
This looks like an acid trip video🥴
🫥
Is single or sets of tutoring sessions at all possible?
Angelo I have found the answer to the inquiry ‘who am I’, and I regularly meditate in the morning; basking in the thoughtless state. However throughout the day I still find my self attaching to the ‘I am sense’. Is there any method I can utilize in order stop attaching to the I am sene, and continue existing in thoughtless space.
So Beautiful don't judge ...good or bad....black or white ... wrong or right... Thank You for the Reminder 🙏🖤💜🌹🌠
Woe this one is a good one 😄 You've gone deep, nice. Also glad you pointed out how memory is a tool to anticipate the future ( without saying it but it was okayish clear). Most people assume that memory is mostly related to the past when it's deeply related to anticipation. Let's assume that variability is reproductible but that free will, is a manifestion within the boundaries of the identity. So you ends up with the reproductability of the same general behavior inside an environment that you have little power on. To put it simple, seem to me that patterns exists, but you never know where your patterns will lead you. I've never met anybody that their life is not a rocket trajectory...mentally speaking. General behavior and reactions are highly predictible...unless there is a fundamental change in identity. If liberation goes beyond that, it sound interesting...but what are the limits of liberation ?
It’s unlimited that’s the beauty of it. But it’s not liberation that’s unlimited , liberation is a word for what is no longer there. 😃
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake For who cares about satisfaction, infinity seem to be the fundamental, only acceptable, answer, at some point.
@@ThommyB everything gets paradoxical here because the ultimate satisfaction is not being attached to satisfaction. Infinite degree freedom just is… and that is-ness is perfect attunement … with what? With attunement itself
Haha, well yeah it's satisfaction without direction. That's because your general believes, the ones that curve reality, are deeply disengaged, right ? It seem like there is an inversion of casuality somewhere "What is" versus what should be." We are a sealed bottle of water in an ocean, that image for me, is the paradox. Everything feel familiar, even people or landscape that i've never seen before, it's all the same water, but there's also the bottle. Do you remember thoses feeling ?
🙏🙏🙏
Great! Now even your nondual talks triggers me! I’m going backwards! Lol
😜
Thanks
Thank you very much :)
