Thanks. The listening to Rupert led me to listen myself then to to a noiseless silence then to silenceful noise. Amazing. No words to describe the experience. Still I can't help sharing it. Thanks thanks🙏
The Nameless... There will be times Of devastation, At times, exhilaration, Somewhere in between The nitemare and the dream, Yet, through among it all, The Truth remains the same, Nothing ever touches, That, which has no name... .........💗 .......
"You are both never changing and ever-changing... Never changing when you look at yourself. Ever-changing when you look at the all the multiplicity and diversity of forms that you take through thinking, sensing, and perceiving." - Rupert Spira. "I AM a movement and a rest"- Jesus. The mind cannot hold contradictory thoughts. The mind has difficulty holding paradox. A koan demonstrates the inadequacy of logical thinking. Truth cannot be contained within thought ... it simply is what is. Thank you, Rupert. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Alan.
I feel such an overwhelming freedom, tears just come, nothing left but being me.. I am drowning and don't even try to breathe. Thank you deeply for this Beauty.. 💎🙏🙏🙏
I am not located in me. Still there is nothing I am not. Where I am no words can join me. Still all words come out of me. Although I feel my body, I do not live there. It is a miracle to be me whilst I am not there. Amazing grace I am indeed. 💎💥💗☀️
Such a deep experience oh my god 🙏 thanks Alan for bringing god love and beauty in my life. I'll listen to this again and again. I always fail to see that seeing is made of me but this together with previous videos which i repeatedly listen to are helping me to see that its a rope not a snake thanks thanks thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful and crystal clear 🙏 I know myself as awareness for a long time but always needed to take a step back to be aware of that knowing. Now, thanks to Rupert, I am in the proces of learning to recognise awareness in the ever changing experiences that I am. And thus not losing myself anymore but being at peace with whatever seems to appear. Even resistance and suffering and the heart that opens up with compassion as a seeming reaction are part of that ever changing experience that I am. 💞
I read this early today and came across it in this video: (50) Jesus said, "If they say to you, 'Where did you come from?', say to them, 'We came from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord and established itself and became manifest through their image.' If they say to you, 'Is it you?', say, 'We are its children, we are the elect of the living father.' If they ask you, 'What is the sign of your father in you?', say to them, 'It is movement and repose.'" There is a world of awareness around us that our physical senses will never capture but when you get a glimpse of it, you can only smile at the awareness of peace. Tell no one verbally but share it silently. Peace!
Absolute concept periodically appears on awareness . first emptiness next fullness and this is love behaviour that can,t stay in one as it is selfless.
Just like in the movies the music determines the feelings, the background beautiful music you add takes the teachings directly to the feelings or deeper than the mind. Great sensibility, thank you. ❣️
Rupert has a way of removing the fog of our conditioned everyday perception to reveal a clear undeniable truth!! Thank you Alan for all that you do! 🙏🙏
We acknowledge the limitation of metaphors (as concessions to the limits of language and mind to know that without limits). If awareness is the substance that modulates, how about the message of how the modulation is to modulate? Later this question is asked and Rupert says it's not possible to answer followed by an explanation why at 20:51. Beautiful-- compared to: "“The medium is the message” is a phrase created by Marshall McLuhan meaning that the form of a medium embeds itself in the message, creating a symbiotic relationship by which the medium influences how the message is perceived. The aphorism has become a frequently cited phrase in the study of digital humanities, as well as in pop culture.' Closing in on the illusion of separation? And the recognition of one reality?
Ok I understand. Everything is consciousness, or awareness. Everything happens in the same place. I’ve never been somewhere else. All of this is clear. But why are we, consciousness so caught up in thought? What is this whole confusing “thing” in consciousness? What is happening? I see what Rupert says. But why doesn’t most of us know this? Seriously what is happening
Hi all, just had a question if anybody is able to answer. When Rupert says there isn't a multiplicity and diversity of objects I don't quite understand what he means. I find his Mary and Jane dream analogy very helpful but couldn't quite relate it to this statement (awareness not knowing objects). When the dreamer becomes lucid at night, and wakes up into it's own dream it realizes everything is made of itself (awareness) but it is still experiencing a multiplicity and diversity of objects through the dreamed character, but now knows the reality of the objects are made of itself, awareness. So my understanding is that awareness does know objects, but knows them as itself. Is that correct? Or am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :)
Awareness/myself doesn't know objects because there is no differentiation in myself. We can 'go to' ourselves and know this in direct experience. Objects only come into apparent being through the perceiving faculty (the five senses). The five senses cannot be the reality because if there were, lets say, eight senses, then the apparent objects would look very different. In seeing through the veil of the senses we see and understand that the multiplicity and diversity is only apparent. Apparent objects and a world are still appearing but we know their reality as a fabrication. As Rupert says Maya remains but ignorance goes. If you want to chat further you can find me on facebook?
Rupert, or anyone, here is my problem. Everything Rupert says about experience, thoughts, feelings and perceptions makes perfect sense. It is clear, and to me, cannot be otherwise. This is exactly how the human mind seems to work. I experience exactly what Rupert says. That is my awareness of my body, my thoughts and all my perceptions of everything have to be a "modulation" or some kind of change happening in my consciousness. Agreed... No problem! My problem is when this experience, my experience, is seen in terms of the world I live in. Rupert seem to say this personal experience of mine is representative of reality of the world. He says "matter" or the inner and outer world does not exist. This is where I have a real problem. In some way I thought of this as a child... my feelings then were the same as now after hearing Rupert. As a student studying science my feelings were also the same. So, why do you Rupert say my personal awareness or experience is representative of all reality. To me, non-duality can only mean that my experience is non-duel. To me this changes nothing about the nature of the real world. This is not so much a statement, but as a question on inquiry. I would like someone to explain what I am not seeing here. I would like for Rupert to address this a bit more. Perhaps he does and I am just missing it. What am I missing, or where am I confused? I would love to know!
I'm not sure if I understand your question. A simple model of reality would be.......there is awareness and within awareness all apparent things arise as the dynamic energy of this awareness and so are inseparable. All arisings are equal as awareness and arise, abide and dissolve leaving no trace. Abiding as myself, I am prior to the thought 'I' am. The thought 'I' am is an arising which dissolves without a trace. I don't know a simpler model but not sure if it addresses your problem. Feel free to come back to me if we can proceed further. 🙏
Hi Alan, Thanks for your response. I really did not expect that but it is very welcome.If I can just take your answer and try to analyze what you say step by step it might be helpful for me and perhaps for you to understand my problem and perhaps give an answer I can understand more fully.I'm not sure if I understand your question. I GUESS MY QUESTION IS WHY DOES MY AWARENESS OF THE WORLD CHANGE THE WORLD? THIS SEEMS TO BE MY QUESTION AND PROBLEM. A simple model of reality would be.......there is awareness and within awareness all apparent things arise as the dynamic energy of this awareness and so are inseparable. YES, I SEE THAT MY AWARENESS IS INSEPERABLE FROM MY EXPERIANCE OF ANYTHING. I UNDERSTAND THAT I AM ONLY IN CONTACT AND AWARE OF MY AWARENESS OR MY AWARE-CONSTRUCTION OF REALITY.... NOT REALITY ITSELF! All arisings are equal as awareness and arise, abide and dissolve leaving no trace. YES, I SEE THIS AS THE PROCESS OF MY EXPERIANCE/AWARENESS. IT COMES AND GOES AWAY. IT MOVES FROM ONE OBJECT TO ANOTHER. THE OBJECT I EXPERINACE IS THE MY AWARENESS OF THAT OBJECT. Abiding as myself, I am prior to the thought 'I' am. THIS I AM NOT SURE OF. I THINK YOU ARE SAYING HERE THAT MY AWARENESS EXISTS EVEN THOUGH I MAY NOT BE AWARE OF MYSELF. AGAIN MY AWARENESS EXISTS PRIOR TO AN OBJECT OF AWARENESS.The thought 'I' am is an arising which dissolves without a trace. HERE I CAN ONLY THINK THAT THE AWARENESS OF MY EXISTENCE IS NOT DEPENDENT ON BEING AWARE OF MYSELF IN ANY PARTICULAR MOMENT. I GUESS I CAN ALSO SAY YOU ARE SAYING THAT "ABIDING" (AWARENESS ALONE) IS EXISTENT PRIOR TO ANY THOUGHT, PERCEPTION, OR FEELING. I don't know a simpler model but not sure if it addresses your problem. Feel free to come back to me if we can proceed further. 🙏Alan … I don't know if my capitalizations were helpful, but these are my thoughts as I read your answer, line by line. And I know this is quite tedious. If you can direct me to a Rupert U-tube that explores these questions it might help. Thank you for taking the time to answer... again it is appreciated, Bob (Robert)
Yes. I see this is my issue and problem in understanding. I am talking about personal awareness and knowing and you and Rupert are talking universal awareness and knowing. To go there I have to give more thought, or further exploration of experience. Thank you for your time and comments they are very helpful. Bob (Robert)

The Nameless...
There will be times
Of devastation,
At times, exhilaration,
Somewhere in between
The nitemare and the dream,
Yet, through among it all,
The Truth remains the same,
Nothing ever touches,
That, which has no name...
.........💗 .......
So clear inquiry 😊😊All my Gratitude for such a clarity 🙏 ✨️ ❤️ 🙌 😊
Deepest understanding made easy❤
