About my videos: These videos are a resource for anyone wishing to wake up from the dream of separation. Awakening, enlightenment, and liberation are becoming far more mainstream possibilities than they once were. There are many good teachers out there, and if you resonate with the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Rupert Spira, or Sadhguru, you might find resources here that address these deeper promptings to investigate your true nature.
Disclaimer: The information presented in these videos is not meant to diagnose or treat any psychiatric or medical illness. The inquiries presented herein are potent and can have powerful effects on the way you experience yourself and reality. If you feel you are at risk of harming yourself or others, these videos and practices may not be the best thing for you at the moment. Seek help wherever necessary which might include a hospital emergency department, a suicide helpline etc.
The best shift was when I realized I don't have to keep climbing to mountain and finding the next foot hold and the next foothold and I can just let go of the search for the peak and just slide down into the land of milk and honey
😍🥛🍯🥳
Very helpful. So much so, I can almost realize it. 😊
I really like what you mention at the end:
"As the mind, heart and body calm
there has to be a maturing and a turn toward what is,
instead of a turn away from what's not"
Thank you! ☺
Welcome
Outstanding talk. Words cut right through the noise.
"This intimacy without cause" ❤️
I loved hearing this. My instincts recently led me to the importance of working on thoughts and reactivity.
Last month I zoomed with Josh and spoke about the ubiquitous 'vanishings,' which draw attention to something that is not an object. He suggested "What's vanishing?" as an inquiry there and that was helpful.
Non duel glitches (or short circuits) of numerous kinds are regular and predictable now, and I love noticing them. It's helpful and deeply peaceful. But the reactivity was waving its muscly arms at me and yelling "Hey! Over here!" 😅
deeply peaceful indeed!
6 gates or senses receive energy: Retina, Eardrum, Olfactory, Tongue, Skin (heat), proprioceptive system and vestibular system the Sense of balance versus gravitational vectors, your position in space is a sense. most people skip this gate it is so close to you.
Can you say that another way?
Several ways to bond with your sense of balance. The first simple way is to close your eyes or be blind. blind people move their head back and forth to feel the fluid move inside their head to find the gravity vector, to keep upright. Just watch Stevie Wonder orient himself in space constantly nodding his head. Second your whole body is filled with nerves to sense the fluidity of your muscles, which are like water balloons. You can feel this by simply moving your hands and arms back and forth or up and down. you can feel the lower G's when you throw your hands up at the top and the increased G's when you stop them from falling at the bottom. Wave your hand up and down ten times in 6 seconds and feel the lightness and heaviness in the flesh (the water). the blood settles in your hands if you do it hard enough. once you feel it.. you can feel it all the time...gravity is pulling your flesh and bones down in every motion you do. you have become aware. Or 50 LSD trips.
"The lover that never leaves you" ❤
The Observing, the Observer, and that Observed, are One.
I love your little chuckles... it's like the kid who found and ate all the Easter eggs 😂 A good indication that you're having a good time
Sometimes I talk too much instead of staying humble but it's helped me realize that I had more beliefs formulate around my experiences. I've even started to wonder why I gave more precedent to empiricism over rationalism. Maybe it's doubt, maybe it's thought, I don't know. Which one is the greater, which magnification of the cosmos is the most important. I guess it's all relative until it's not.
Thank you 🙏
Thank you, truly helpful 😊
This video is SO helpful. Wow! Thank you Angelo. Gonna listen a few more times and let it soak in. 🙏🏼
Welcome
How beautifully stated. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Question: Angelo when I am absorbed in the visualfield and I am looking at objects they move about and disappear but there are always two images of the same objects. Also when absorbed in looking at a wall, a floor, a grass field they become two dimension am I on the right track or am I deluding myself. Thanks ❤
Things I Wrote Down After Meditating/Inquiry This Morning; Thought I’d Share as it plays in to the video in some ways...
-What does the texture of ‘me’ (identification) feel like? Is it the texture or feeling of going through the mind (thought)? And how does the texture of non-attached awareness FEEL in comparison?
This I refine, refine, refine-through curiosity... I watch my mind misinterpret small discomforts in my body in real time. No point in passing these things through the judgements and concepts in the mind... The body knows no concept. It has not read books. The body speaks only as a raw nerve can. The raw nerve, on its own, is unable to produce a reaction without the mind. So, I stay there as long as I can.
-Does most of my existence REALLY have to amount to a 'love (hate) affair' with the next thought? A thought that smugly tells me-this, this impression (inclination, apparition, assumption)-is how it is? Do we have to spend a whole lifetime running around in these circles, responding to this lusty spook? When is enough enough? I am watching this happen in me.
-A sensation happens in the body, and then the mind names it. It names it and tells a subtly inferred story about it with compelling certainty. It names everything wrong. Everything. It loves it's short-sightedness. I acknowledge this naming and ‘story-making,’ then throw it out, repetitively. I stay curious. Curiosity seems to be the scaffolding that keeps me in this clear space, keeps me engaged. Without curiosity, it seems I don’t have a direction.
-How do I remain in this non-attached state outside of meditation? That is where I am at...Distraction intertwines with my passions, and before I know it, I’m lost, running away from myself online....the ‘outside' world-still proves to be such a challenge, a relentless training ground, an endless source of cascading assumptions, always trying to sneak in when I’m not looking.... I feel that I CAN do it; because it's only thought that says I can't,.
..Undaunted; I use my suffering (everyone's suffering) as fuel to relentlessly sink down, following no one...no one else can show me. . I see this is all happening in me, and from here I begin to feel much much more clear and !!! CONNECTED.!!!!! And I am ok with not understanding this..
Thanks for allowing me to spew; all the best to everyone out there.
Wow, it’s as if I’m reading through my own journal. This is so surreal, listening to you speak through your writing. Thanks for sharing! Beautiful insights and yeah, the inquisitive curiosity aspect of inquiry is the driving catalyst - it’s that intuitive impulse sparking the whole thing into being and it’s a natural easing in. The mind will want to wrangle itself into a “final resting place”… a quasi non-attached awareness, as though that somehow is an exalted state of being, separate from everyday ordinary consciousness. Any interpretative mental analysis about it is all mental, and there’s nothing inherent within our daily experience of being alive, that we have to “work for.” It’s free and easy to just be as you already always are. All that struggle is of the mind, and thoughts are fine as they are. They’re not a problem and never were. Just the beliefs around thoughts created the idea of it being problematic. It’s just expressions of sentience, the activity of thinking. Like an added sense perception, it serves a purpose in conventional living, being able to think creatively so as to innovate ideas into new areas of development and invention. Beautiful working mind/higher mind. Use it as the tool it is. But, recognize that what you are is not encapsulated by anything the mind conjures up by way of explanation. 🌞
I see Angelo recommend on his latest vid (to a user named Stargirl) a link to something relating to Hsin Hsin Ming’s “Verses on the Faith Mind,” which you can also contemplate, and let sink in…
Rock solid wisdom
Beautiful
❤❤❤
good one, Angelo! thank you - always
Is there a difference between being identified with thoughts and reacting to (ie believing) thoughts?
Being thought-identified is pre first shift, but reacting to thoughts can still happen during the shadow work phase, is this correct? What’s the difference?
Ty for this video! Super super helpful.
Thanks for frustrating the shit out of me♥. Just when it seems i'm getting somewhere you show me how much hasn't been seen yet. Not many teachers I listen to talk about the zero distance reality. Maybe my sub conscience has been avoiding it or waiting for grace to intervene. It will be the main focus going forward. Thanks Brother🙏
❤
I used to tell myself and others that you normalized the impossible. I didn't realize it was deliberate.
Swaha is a statement that all ritualistic sacrificial acts end with where something is offered to gods, proclaiming them to accept it. I would think surrendering the self is the ultimate offering. It is the last Swaha.
7:02 yep that's what's happening here
The concept this mind keeps creating is that of an only child pretending an imaginary world because it doesn't have anyone to play with.
Speaking of the Heart Sutra: I'm confused! Angelo, you're often pointing to the primacy of the sense fields. Yet the sutra says: "no eye, ear, nose, tongue... no color, sound, smell, taste... etc." It seems to be pointing beyond the senses, as if we are to "go completely beyond" the senses as well. Can you please clarify the relationship between your emphasis on the senses vs. the message of the Heart Sutra? Thank you! 🙏
The same. And Angelo is pointing to something Subtle here anyways. In that place of subtlety you won't be able to make mental distinctions thoroughly. It'll just feel like it's just getting more and mroe deeper.
The senses will take you beyond the senses.
Seeing without eyes, hearing without ears, smelling without nose, tasting without buds ❤❤❤
"A fool believes what he thinks, not what he sees. The wise man believes what he sees, not what he thinks." Zen saying
Stupid question but I don’t feel the world like I do with my body. I can feel my skin, sweat, aches but not someone else body or other things
@buffy… the experience is not an illusion. The sense that it happens to a me, self or I, is. 😮
🎯👍🙏
❤️🔥🫶🏻
Dual keys… lol
I had the anatta realization but don’t feel I’ve reached liberation. 😶
Went back to your book to review your definitions/descriptions of liberation and they are very clear. Yeah, I’m not quite there yet. There are periods of complete immersion and then periods of being back in the mind matrix. But I found that with each of the major shifts, there is a period of integration/clarification that follows.
Have I met you in person (I apologize but I often don’t know people by username even if I know them by face/name)
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake We’ve never met, no.
wait, are all my reactions automatically being cancelled. did i say something wrong?
I’ve noticed that if you include any swear words or adult language, your comment won’t post on this channel. So edit those out if you used them lol.
@@stargirl9551sugar & carbs may as well be swear words 😅
Not sure
