- Losing desires can upset people on the spiritual path, but after awakening, this is a very natural part of dissolving the ego and its attachments which leads to deeper levels of peace and freedom.

Great video! I’ve lost a lot of desires which is kind of boring. I’m trying to just be ok with being bored for now which is hard. What’s harder is my wife and kids are still stuck in the material world which is irritating because they spend so much money on “things” That give them temporary happiness only for those “things” to be stored in the attic and never be used again. They say I’m mean because I get so frustrated at this. I literally could just sit on the front porch and watch nature for hours and not do anything else.
Thanks for sharing. The boredom and frustration are the next levels of ego for you to go into and find the deeper attachments that are creating them. I also offer online classes to support people like you. I announce them through my free newsletter: mailchi.mp/spiritualawakeningprocess/youtube1
You could enjoy how much your wife and kids enjoy that stuff!
@@tcorangemen Good idea, maybe that’ll redirect my state of mind from frustration to joy. I really don’t want to be frustrated at them but the amount of things they buy ends up not being used and piled up through out the house. I’d like to get rid of the majority of things I own. I’m not attached to anything anymore. Kinda of a weird period I’m going through because I used to have soooo much to distract me.
@@JimTolles Thank you! I may look into this.
@@JimTolles dude I signed up to your news letter and it’s saying $431 will be drafted from account! I emailed you with no response, I called the number in your link and says this number not in service.
I still enjoy money. It enables me to be free to leave the crazy Matrix of work.
I was desperate to write a novel and have been working towards it but I recently discovered that I don’t desire it anymore.
It is an amazing shift considering how desperate I was previously!
I am falling in love with this moment and it is enough.
I have been watching your videos for years and the more I evolve, the more I grasp what you say. Thank you very much! 😃
Also my desire for approval has been enourmously strong for years and it is disappearing these days. It is a massive shift for me
It feels so good to just BE.
Wonderful. I hope you find time to come to an online class for more support. If you're not on the newsletter already, you can sign up here: mailchi.mp/spiritualawakeningprocess/jimtollesnewslettersignup
I love your comment and I relate. Being aware is so satisfying. My old dreams of grandeur are crumbling. Walt Whitman invited me to “loaf and lean,” and observe a leaf of grass. I just took a big deep breath!❤
Im so glad to have found your channel. In the midst of my awakening I realize i lose desire of so many things
What is happening in your spiritual awakening?
The problem my mind face is that it's obvious that desires drives most of people success in life. If you follow your passion you have more chances to be successful in life. I've lost so many desires lately that I don't know if I am awake or just lasy or depressed almost ! I trust life but it's hard to feel like I'm not going to achieve anything compared to the others or compared to the potential I had... I know it's not very spiritual but this is where I am now sometimes
When desires go away, it's time to do inner work to learn more about what are desires were telling us and what our bodies may be telling us. I encourage you to come to an online class some time to connect more. I share them via my newsletter: mailchi.mp/spiritualawakeningprocess/youtube1
That’s exactly the phase I’m in right now. Very relatable
Your desires dont need to be related with work or financial success always.
I went through spiritual awakening in 2019. And I had a psychosis...Christ on wheels its agonizing...recovering.... sometimes I feel ok ..sometimes weak ... I love gym and I noticed I don't work out every day ..like I did when I was " awaken " I walked almost 30km ... now I feel like a old mammoth 🦣 slow ...and blah..
Thanks Jim this has really helped me to understand what’s been going on for the last few years! Big tears flowing, thank you
Losing desires is natural. It makes space for deeper clarity for any actions we take in life. We'll no longer be driven to do things by desire. We can act without holding onto the fruits of actions/results.
Watching your video again. I have probably lost all of my desires of atleast 99% of them and cannot imagine how true your words are, Jim.
I feel so whole and complete as myself !
Great! You are. That is the truth of the spiritual path. Everything else is a passing experience. :)
Love your videos. I'm glad I found you. I've been praying for some answers to what has happened to me in the last five years. Thank you thank you. A sigh of relief... I want to share you with all the sleepies around me. Such clarity of the spirit comes after many layers of removing the veil and seeing the truth. I'm in this stage right now. I've lost most of my desires. I hope to meet some like minded people so I can finish my journey here. I'm glad I found you. thank you.
Glad I can help. Here's a blog post about how to continue letting go of your ego: spiritualawakeningprocess.com/2018/01/how-to-let-go-of-your-ego.html
This resonated with me. The past week has seen a tremendous spiritual upheaval in my life.
Waves of electricity surfing through my body for days on end. The sunlight seems to wash over everything it touches and make it new. I have laughed with people, in presence and awareness, we have laughed together. I feel discompelled by food, I have not had cravings. I feel as though I'm losing my interest in video games (it had been losing interest for me for some time), I am losing interest in spending money. I am losing interest in my goals to study a masters degree.
I am starting to realise that any opportunity presents space for awareness and the ability to make a difference in others lives. I may still do my masters, and eat with people, and have the occasional drink, buy only so that I can be with the people and be present with them, and help them if they wish for help.
It has been perplexing. I spent today googling if I had maybe has a seizure, out of curiosity, not anxiety, as was the case before. I am not scared, but I do wonder if I fried a circuit or two.
Thanks Jim. Great descriptions 👍
Excellent video
Thanks so much Jim!
You're welcome. Thanks for the comment.
thank you I just found you and this is exactly what I needed to hear 🙏🏼
Great! Be sure to check out blog posts on my site too! spiritualawakeningprocess.com/2018/01/how-to-let-go-of-your-ego.html
Gosh! This video is powerful. I have lost SOooooo many desires after thousands of awakenings, I sometimes feel weird
I feel terrified losing my desires for becoming a successful author
To be honest Jim, I am terrified how much of my desires have died…. ALL
My goals and ambitions, even the desire to go for a vacation…. Can’t explain how weird this feels! All dying! When I try advancing towards these old outdated desires, I feel like I am pushing myself….forcing myself…. But the zest is gone and never to return ( it just won’t return the same old way)
I even allow people at work to treat me in a way that “crushes my ego” ( not physically) but that doesn’t affect me even one bit…. Like I feel nothing, no resentment, not even sarcastic laughter
I feel like that ego that reacted that’s at doesn’t exist or if it does I am watching it. Like I am not it
What are things like for you now?
I feel like I’m going through something similar right now to what you wrote
I’ve felt such lack of desires to do anything the last few years. It’s like everything is just “perfect” so what’s the “point” of doing
The ego is always looking for goals--a point to things. I encourage you to go deeper in you work. Ultimately, all of life is a sandcastle. We learn to create for the joy of it, not expecting it to be permanent.

I had my spiritual awakening little over 4 years ago. I have had so much happen since then, a lot for the better but now I am having a hard time focusing on financial needs. I have a business and I'm a creator and artist. I am having a hard time desiring to create and be creative and if I'm not creative I can't make money. What am I supposed to do now? Am I supposed to be struggling with this? How can I regain a desire to maintain financial stability in a corrupt evil world filled with lies and deception?
You need to go within to deal with your ego and all its beliefs. How you look at your current situation is entirely from your ego perception. Life is much more than what you are seeing right now.
@@JimTolles Hi Jim, I have been trying to get into contact with you but I haven't been able to through your website. Something seems broken.
I'm in same situation. Please tell me what to do..
Any updates on your situation? I'm relate a lot to your comments.
@@JeffFinley In fact, Yes. My entire life has completely changed over the last 10 months. Financially, Mentally and Spiritually all for the better. What I've come to realize is that the more you embrace the calling God has for your life and the more you learn to accept it's challenges the happier and better off you will be. I no longer worry so much about what the devil is doing but rather focus on what God is doing. He needs us to work on ourselves and break strongholds and addictions before he can use us in the way he intends to. We need to ask for his help and realize we can't do it alone. He will provide you a way out of your despair and depression if you trust in him and do the best you can to make good choices. Take some time off if you can and go out in nature, go somewhere new and shut off the electronics for a couple days. Don't lose faith. Remember that everything in this life will pass away but our spirit is eternal and it's what we should protect. Guard your heart above all else and don't let negativity or lack of creativity plague your life. Remember who you are and who you were meant to be and work towards owning that. You are not alone and their are many other people going through a lot worse. Don't take your situation for granted and be grateful for everything you have no matter how big or how small. Be unique and set apart and don't be afraid to speak out against what's wrong no matter who it may offend. Many life challenges are ahead of us and we need to prepare and be ready for what is to come. Money is a tool that can be used just as much for good as it can be used for evil. Don't love money or worship it but realize and accept it's importance. It's all part of Gods plan and whether we like it or not, if we are alive and still breathing we are a part of it. Embrace the good and bad and you will be more at peace. Don't take life too seriously. :)
got no desire for sex or women anymore everything i need reside within
never really connected with them well in the first so no lose you never get what you want when it comes to others
you get what you are to hell with anything that like my self their is no dealth but im ready to go home i dont care for being in this world
Please reach out for psychological support. Your body is not the problem. Your ego is, and you can naturally let it go in a healthy way. 988lifeline.org/
I always wanted to ask you a question. I have reached a point in my life where I have lost Each and every desire and no longer see the point in continuing this life, not in a suicidal way, but in a way that understands that ultimately nothings ( literally nothing) in the material world is fulfilling
So my question is, is that normal?
I have lost interest in all the things I desired and loved
I am able to discern the entire circular Workings of my mind.
We lose interests in things that do not actually serve us or are necessary. This makes it clear what our NEEDS are--like healthy food. In a society that prizes desiring things, Westerners struggle to accept the fact that they don't need most of what they are taught to desire and that it is okay to JUST BE.
I see Jim. Completely agree.
And honestly I have shed at least 98% of all my desires by now
Thank you so much fir responding : )
Take care
Regards,
Nilanjana
I dont have any human experiences i feel best being in my room alone...why is that is there something i I should be worried about?
In my awakening I lost more desire to have sex and my partner isn’t happy about that. No matter what I do or how a try, my sexual desire is just isn’t there. I don’t think we will make it.
I encourage you to find couples counseling.
Is there a video on how to navigate having no desires? I just lay in bed all day everyday.
Did this video not answer your questions about this?
@@JimTolleswell, this is a summary after watching again:
One can lose desires as well as fears
Dropping into oneness
Aren’t I supposed to care about these things?
Talked about what desires can drop away
Talked about finding deeper desires
Talked about eroding more and more desires
Deeper disharmonies are shown (not for me so far)
Then you go back to someone who still has desires
Realize we don’t need much
Integrated into the next level of openness
Relax into losing desires
But I feel I’m past all this I guess. I have no more desires and you might say that I’m free, and yes, I can see that, but what now? Like I said, I could just lie in bed all day and I have no desire to do anything else. Sure, I get hungry and find food. I clean myself when I feel dirty, I use the restroom, etc. But I don’t feel the need to exercise, or learn anything, or work, or play, or interact with anyone.
I also don’t feel like I’m desiring to have desires again. I’m just expressing what I’m experiencing and noticing. I’m completely desire-less and wondering what now? I’ve relaxed into it and now I’m here. Will anything change if I keep relaxing more and more?
Thanks for the reply. The "what now?" question is the doorway to the deeper desires and fears. It is a statement of discontent.
