I am in joy that I got here - to Mr. Scupira Channel. How gentle, how intelligent, how loving. Thank you to him and to the people who put this channel together. A warm thank-you.
Scupira? Haha

Btw, I love how Rupert so intently tries to explain and address each question.
So earnest and true...❤️
Rupert's way of explaining profound things so simply is pure genius!
I love this silent moments between the talks... it's so powerful
We create so many avatars. Sometimes they come in a voice of an angel, spirit, master or family member. A lady name Susan had an amazing near death experience. A man asked her who were those spirits that she saw? She responded those were all aspects of me, they were all me. 💛🌟
I had the same experience at work ten years ago. I was going about minding my own business when a customer approached and asked me something. When i looked at her i had an overwhealming feeling, knowing, experience that i am actually her. Looked away into another person and had the same feeling. I could hear it in my head excitement "omg it's all me, i must be super kind to everyone because it's all me"
I know it sounds like i was on crack or smth but i tell you i experienced how it feels like to be aware and knowing that you are every person around. It was very exciting and you get overwhealmed by great love for everyone. Just tells me it is possible to experience life through that state of consciousness while being human. Amazing. Anyway.. it dissipated shortly after. But this world would be a much better place if all of humanity experience each other in that same way always
Our individual selves are but aspects of infinite consciousness
Yes , I had the same experience 🙏💜
Rupert’s pauses are absolutely epic.
Beautiful question and explanation,makes me realize we are all so blessed to be here together.Thank u both!
This kid is so damn intelligent and charming
I love the look of pure compassion at the start..
Tony well like ram das says: he’s not saying anything we don’t already know
So our souls come from a small part of our parents and portions of another soul or other souls!
@Tony spot on
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 everyone doesn't have a soul that's why they cold hearted everyone has a spirit Doe. The soul comes from God through the parents it's an expression of God it's apart of God and intune with God
@@jameelisaac7122
I just remember jesus story
Revisited this again from 2 yrs prior and realize how beautiful it is and how loving Rupert can be.
He never fails to express how consciousness even comes into any situation.
Rupert as the knowledge has evolved in your whirlpools this can move to another dimension stored then we can be reborn again. I love the way you explain every thing.
Wow. I was thinking "How is he going to pull this one together." Fabulous answer! Thank you so much, Rupert, and the little boy, for the question.
A piece from an amazing new autobiography titled: Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within amzn.to/356Ia5W
Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave. The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration.
‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist. For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach into the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses.
To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment. The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing.
The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlie all spiritual and physical existence.
The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law which allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice verse. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists.
Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment of time than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents.
Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’. On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication. For example, the levels of difference could be compared to between making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, or producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always to respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything.
NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result from any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things in a conventional way - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need.
Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life - including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream - already exists within us. th-cam.com/video/NR5DdqjMxgA/w-d-xo.html

We speak in images, almost parables, because we don't have words for the reality.
the illusion of ego-mind-body beautifully explained by Rupert Spira
Is not the only honest answer to this question- We don't know?
This is a very new and different way to look at life. My old way was like the boy (Alexander), separate soul, karma, multiple past lives etc....and where did i come from. The reality is we’re not what we think we are in the classic individual way.
More and more I experience these words of being timeless and infinite, kind of like something growing and coming slowly into its own. Adya come to mind in him saying we can’t make this happen because it happens on its own. So many contradictions but in some sense, I understand.
💚Maravilhoso❤ Gratidão profunda e eterna 💙 Tão bom estar conhecendo você, Rupert💎
I think the right answer was, “Nobody knows for sure”
BUT from my perspective and experience I can testify that “I” am not my mind and I am not body. So that makes this “i” some what related to the soul or something foreign.
That was beautiful. Thank you, Rupert.
I just love this guy , gentle love.
I idolize Rupert!! ❤
I appreciate how Rupert isn’t pretending to channel some alien entity.
Absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much for this valuable information. Lots of love from an Australian 🇦🇺❤
I swear to God this kid asks the best and deepest and most pressing questions.
Yes. And he deserved a better answer, AND, Rupert has SO MANY better metaphors that he has used before. It is my opinion (limited as it may be) that Rupert knows so much better. I would like to hear from Rupert.

@marom A You referring to yourself? How do you know this?
@@glynemartin I thought the same thing as you:)
marom A what do you mean by “they”? I’m not talking about kids in general, I’m talking about this specific boy. There is a number of videos on this channel where he asks very interesting questions. Have you seen those? I think it’s extraordinary for his age. And btw, most kids that age want to do the exact opposite of what you say (impress their teachers, parents, etc.). They rebel. If he weren’t interested, he would hate the fact that his parents dragged him to Satsang and sit there quietly, protesting and pouting through the whole session. Instead, he voluntarily engages in the Q&A session.
@marom A he sounds genuinely interested. His questions are well thought out. Why judge with no evidence?
honest answer is we don't know. this kind of question doesn't need answers. actually when this question disappears, we start living lives.
Thank you both Alexander and Rupert, very good question. Very good answer of course . You could also see it as waves coming up in the ocean, it goes down in the ocean and rises again but it is never the same wave, due to movements and currents deeper in the ocean. Still it is always the same water🌊💧
@Ruby Badilla thank you I am Aware, and Know, Feel and experience what you are talking about...
see my channel if you like th-cam.com/video/p1D3eHYRLTQ/w-d-xo.html, timeless face of God

God is your most innerself.. when you disappear you still remain... like if you are standing before a mirror and see yourself.. and the mirror breakes in 1000 peaces on the floor, you fall apart and disappear but still exist. one of the two is just imagination of the same Mind.. for the Joy of experiencing and discovering. As children play hide and seek and go home happy after playing. We are taken home as well after playing. so enjoy nothing else to do.. no free will but be aware of all creation. your own creation!
I love what you say...we are taken home after playing. I want to go home.
@@whatsinaname1667 🧡your simpel and true words touch my soul, I feel your longing, Every day it is the same game, duality is the only way to be home . But we start to play from home and never leave it..that's just the play of Maya (Mind) it is not real
Although It feels so real..I am more and more aware of that, in deep sleep it (mind) is gone . Just accept the play it is for fun
When you see that, you are home. Blessings to you 🍀🌺🙏
So our souls come from a small part of our parents and portions of another soul or other souls!
@@gabeheartz13saravia97 there exists only one soul, It is the Consciousness that is different, part of our parents part of our previous lifes., part of what we have learned... It grows, but the soul is only one, like one sun is visible in 100 pots of water .. you see 100 suns but only one sun exists ! One soul in 100 bodies still one soul.
When I dont know , I will say I dont know or not sure .
Exactly. I believe there are more authoritative sources on the subject of the soul, for instance information gathered by past life regressionists and research on near death experiences. Past life regressionist Michael Newton and others have indicated that souls actually choose the body they are going to be born into, as the young boy mentions.
I agree. Rupert is great on awareness, but that was pure waffle.
@joachim h
If there is one and only one thing that consciousness teaches us, it is that experiences have little to nothing to do with the nature of reality. Your senses continually lie to you about all kinds of things. False memories are a huge problem in courtrooms, which is why eyewitness testimony is some of the most useless evidence you can possibly obtain.
How many women in therapist offices have recounted incidences of being raped by their father in childhood when in fact no such thing happened. How many people will testify under hypnosis that they have been abducted by aliens and will go into great detail about the nature that's their spaceship, their appearance, how they communicate with each other and with humans, and certainly the majority if not all of them, are fabricated frauds by the mind.
The first step to truth is realizing that your mind is not worth jack schitt in getting you there.
@@joachimh3103 They are experiences of people connected to the demiurge brain. You can't believe your senses. Past regressions, past lives ect are not certain.
The curse of being a 'guru' I guess. You have to have an answer to everything or else ppl might start looking elsewhere.
An individual self or or soul travelling through the space time continuum is an illusion of the ego self because it is afraid of it's impermanent nature. ^^
Nobody knows what consciousness is in the first place. Such question can only truly be answered from a level higher than consciousness. Trying to answer such a question from the human level is only a mental construct.
So here is where the wise people are. Would love to meet him so we could discuss how, the measure of the ego is the measure of the abyss or unconsciousness we experience. The distance from God which is self when self is being self

Hey rupert love you boy love you, god bless you darling.
A good example of the "I-Magi-Nation" at work.
The actual answer is " you" didnt come from anywhere. The words " come" , " from" and " anywhere " are just constructs from the IMagiNation of the mind. The mind creates illusions. Refer to eternity, and the mind immediately " thinks" of an enormously long time. I think therefor I am, becomes I am ,therefor I think. But now my thoughts are knowingly produced " from" consciousness ie , consciously. Awakening had no start or finish. No time involved.
I-magik-nation?
"The actual answer is " you" didnt come from anywhere. The words " come" , " from" and " anywhere " are just constructs from the IMagiNation of the mind." Exactly.
The child evokes a very interesting response from Rupert: do we choose to come to this world through our parents, or are we compelled under karma? And aren’t there accidents or coincident? The action of 2 whirlpools and infinite ripples make or shape who we are, makes it impossible to trace each factor or source. What we choose is affected by our karma. Our choice and karma including collective karma of humanity or sentient beings, all merge together as to be indistinguishable.
So where did the first whirlpool of first human on earth come from? From the remnants of the whirlpool of our ape like ancestors? Then where did their whirlpools come from?
There were never something like first man and the first woman in the world. Nor the first child. We’re experiencing the everlasting NOW. You’re confused with something that is called the version of the world as we know it.
Trust Rupert to take such an intense, powerful, passionate and wonderful experience and make it sterile with his words.
Do you still hold that opinion?
In me this is reminiscent of The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh.
👍👌
It seems more like a mix of Traducianism and reincarnation
Observe a wise person answer a question. They pause to consider the question in depth and to formulate an answer that will speak to the questioner. Watch an ideologue. They will be impatient for the question to end so they can dogmatically espouse their ideology -- almost without consideration of the question or the needs of the questioner.
This kid ALWAYS makes Rupert think long and hard before answering...
Wish we could see him. Rare are those with this much interest at a young age.
he copying Jiddu Krishnamurti
We haven’t selected those as parents but as entities of our actual reality not our sensed reality .
And how do we know this. Are u sure it’s right ? Or just feels like it sounds right
The ocean is consciousness, the whirlpool is Alexander manifest,
Alexander is the name of the whirlpool and Alexander is the nameless ocean
There *are* coincidences, just not "random" ones, or rather not "casual", not outside consciousness. Synchronicities is another good term.
So how come so many ppl remember choosing their parents etc?!
Because he's incorrect with some of what he'd saying. You know it, I know it. One day he will know it.
Rupert explains this stuff better than anyone and in this one he adds some humor lol
Yes, thats why i really like him
Give that kid his own show. Way too smart so young.🧘🏽♂️
By the way, you choose. Best you can.😇
Awesome question
That's why people had to come up with non-existing concepts like souls to explain these things to a child. What the kid was asking was how his consciousness came about. Essentially this was what he referred to as his "soul" or "reincarnation". But these things highly likely don't exist. Cats give birth to kittens and dogs to puppies and so forth. It's like asking where their awareness came from, did it reincarnate into them as well. Well no, the circumstances became right for those life-forms to exist hence they came about. A fused cell with genetic material from both parents, started growing and awareness of things came about when a brain started forming and became functional. That's how life and consciousness began
Im so happy and thankful what is happening here
What & how is it happening, through that in which we do not know?🤔
Thank You sooo Much Thank You to share The Truth, The Explanation of our "situation/reality"
(The Dreaming state of The Lone Sleeping Titan managed by A.I.) 🙂
The world of dreams "around me" is created by me, through me, in me, based on my emotions, perceptions, thoughts, etc...
I Long to Know MySelf I am
MySelf at Peace
Thank You sooo Much Thank You

People only ask this question to feed the ego mind i would guess. Did i choose my life? Am responsible for me? Was i smart enough to choose this Body and so on. Thoughts?
In a spiritual context who/what questions are answerable, why/how questions are much harder and require a degree of belief based faith which isn't unnecessary true. For example reincarnation, souls, oversoul, God and the motives associated with these beliefs are largely faith based.
Hey J :) understanding of consciousness based reality answers that easily
that whirlpool reminds me of vritti
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vritti
Vritti, literally "whirlpool", is a technical term in yoga meant to indicate that the contents of mental awareness
are disturbances in the medium of consciousness. ... The classical definition of yoga as stated in the Yoga Sutras
is to calm the waves and return, or reunite (yoga = union) mind to its calm state, or samadhi.
Beautiful! And, those remnants (Vasanas) from past lives are not accompanied by an individual soul, because there are no individuals - only infinite Consciousness. "Just as space seems to be divided owing to the presence of pots, etc., so also the appearance of division occurs in Brahman owing to the presence of [body/minds]." Shankaracharya - 'Brahma Sutra Bhasya'
That makes total sense
What happens to the souls of people who kill rape or molested?
Is God going to punish them or their souls? Please reply 🙏
Some powerful psychedelics can give you an understanding of these esoteric mechanisms of reality through experience but it will not bring lasting peace and some knowledge is forbidden and breaks the finite mind.
Bernardo Kastrup also brilliantly uses whirlpool analogy in his book "Why Materialism is Baloney?".
Well, great minds think alike.
chaostarr In another video Rupert credits the whirlpool idea to “his friend Bernardo Kastrup”
@@mikem3779 I didn't know that, thank you.
And Bernardo Kastrup may be expanding on Alan Watts (another great mind). The whirlpool analogy shows up in more than one of Watts' lectures.
@Ruby Badilla Thank you, Ruby. Your explanations coincide with my understanding of Roger Castillo's beautiful teachings.
We're pure spiritual essence in reality, but the mechanical human nature, and its illusory contrived sense of a separate self, fills up the inner space, which originally is designed to be used, for receptive and developing spiritual nature, which can never be supplied by the human of itself, it must come from the cosmic external forces only!
Everything I perceive in Christian doctrine does not need the concept of soul.
We need the body, we need the resurrection of the dead, we need Heaven, but I don't know where we'll need a soul, or what that is.
You need a comfort blanket while believing 'Lord of the Rings'
Question was: does Rupert believe in individual sole/mind concept which travels after body dies and takes form again.
The voice asking the question sounds so precious.
Reincarnation, is wherein previous incarnate affinities, are integrated into, and become aspects of each successive incarnation, or constrictions of consciousness and awareness for the experiential process. The "choice" within duality, as an aspect of the dual experience, is always an either/or proposition, which presents itself "moment" to "moment." There really is only one choice... that of choosing life.
Loved how he explained this x
That is a truly beautiful quote.
So beautiful, but how does he know all of this? I would just say 'We don't really know'.
Thank you! I was asking myself the same question: How does he know all of this?
By channeling infos
Go deep into the nature of experience and you will know that all his answers come from a very simple knowing. Probably our very complex way of thinking projects itself on what he says, making it seem that he knows more information than we do, which he doesn't. His thinking is way simpler, he lets himself speak from that spontaneous simplicity, making it seem like he knows more information. All is metaphorical and circles around that which cannot be spoken, but is very simple in itself.
If people truly want to know what he is talking about, they have to allow themselves to dive deep into that place of not thinking, but knowing. Thinking is the problem here. Thinkers will not get this.
@@Sydebern holy shit, I was ducking up this whole time, thank you for this info! 🙏
Thank u.
Fabulous explanation. X
You're asking questions that no human can answer, this man is in the dark as much as the rest of us. It will all be revealed upon our death, or not.
Beautiful 🙏
Thank you
In stream of river of consciousness... how & where is the empty illuminating field localized... ?
The two earthly parental whirlpools collide to make an earthly whirlpool and it can hold a whirlpool from the whole universal knowledge which is always expanding.
6:37 How anyone legitimately says anything about the mystery of the soul? I like to know where this hypothesis or assumption has come from? Appreciate your comment on some sources. Thanks
I am currently reading Plotinus, he is amazing!
What is being born into the linear finite world is consciousness. It is consciousness that allows us to experience, learn and evolve. Consciousness is life.
Thanks guys ❤️

A piece from an amazing new autobiography titled: Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within amzn.to/356Ia5W
Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave. The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration.
‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist. For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach into the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses.
To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment. The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing.
The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlie all spiritual and physical existence.
The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law which allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice verse. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists.
Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment of time than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents.
Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’. On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication. For example, the levels of difference could be compared to between making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, or producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always to respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything.
NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result from any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things in a conventional way - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need.
Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life - including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream - already exists within us. th-cam.com/video/NR5DdqjMxgA/w-d-xo.html

While I have agreed with this man’s influential messages from the universal source of consciousness previously I do not agree that he has gained this particular knowledge from universal consciousness honestly. We do as entity by truth select our lives and the reality of it as a individual Spector of universal consciousness. We have both selected therefore our birthing parents and anticipated not only our path but also it’s demise. We are encouraged by the consciousness to explore that which should be gained as a witness to our simulated reality .
For those of you who feel that the inquiry was not fully answered, consider this
short video of his, which adds deeper understanding on the subject:

So, during the climax of a successful self-enquiry (''who am I?'') why can I still observe the world (sensory perception) throughout?, this being that Rupert claims the world is observed through the mind (a thought) which ive allegedly, albeit momentarily, collapsed into its source ('awareness) therefore, again, why can I still observe phenomena during self - enquiry? Thanks
Kimberley Carpenter In the climax of a successful self-enquiry only the distinction between you and the world (i.e. duality) dissolves. Rupert often uses the analogy of lucid dreaming and calls the self-awakened state “lucid waking”. There are still bodies and sense perceptions and objects to begin with, but you no longer identify with any of these and instead realize your identity is the eternal subject, independent of any phenomena. Eventually, this subject can then be realized as all there is. You are the dreamer that gives reality to everything in your consciousness. However, as long as this body lives, there can only be lucid waking, i.e. being still in the dream called reality but being aware of the fact that you are dreaming. What is born must die. The spiritual ego death is just the realization that you are dreaming. Physical death then means waking up from that dream.
@@depressionbeard9882 i don't know, some people, myself included report a total dissolution of body/world awareness and a realization of formless eternal being, or total void. But then appearances return and there's that seemless not twoness. So amounts to much the same thing, only i felt it made it completely clear that awareness can be without form, but form can't be without awareness, or the end of fear of dissolution/death.
I've had a few realizations prior to that, starting at 5 years old haha.. but nothing seemed to touch the whole terror of non existence till that point. There was some subtle clinging to existing as form.
But everyone is wired differently.
Ramana Maharshi once said,” The world is an illusion. There is only Brahman. Brahman is the world.” This incredibly profound statement embraces the paradox of being One yet at the same time experiencing ‘many’.
I would humbly suggest that your ‘climax of self-enquiry’ while noteworthy is just a first step into a much much deeper place.
Kimberley Carpenter you still have a body which is marvelously capable of simultaneously maintaining both inner cognition of unbounded consciousness and outer perception of finite: mind, body, environment.
@@depressionbeard9882 Yes, but if via thought (the mind) objects are seen, and I'm now momentarily thoughtless via self-enquiry, why would I see anything at that moment?! - You'd expect a timeless spaceless 'period' resembling the deep-sleep 'state' (said to be pure awareness) at some point in the self-enquiry, right? Maybe that actually happens and my mind is unaware, as it is in deep-sleep?.. ''hmmmmmmmm.....'' x

It is us,... we are it, It (Ie) Consiousness is everywhere & everything!
Ace; I've got a whirlpool refrigerator!!

Thank you Rupert
I have a few questions i dont understand.
Why does our multiverse have cycles?
are we all humans eventually going to evolutionize wether or not we are good or evil?
so all the bad people will have to keep reencarnating until they evolutionize?
I dont understand.
I dont have to worry about the Other cycles?
the look on ur mask at the begining iS no thing short of PRICELESS...
Good question!
I believe we generated our souls from our brains or bodies from the moment we are born or conceived
This man speaks out pure speculation. He simply does not know!
I would have to agree with you...It's unfortunate because the data won't show this type of thing as being the case, therefore we must rely on what's in the heart ! What does the heart tell you to be the case? Consiousness is where it's at though..as far as studying & research!👌
Esoteric Fitness The I-Magi-Nation at work.
The actual answer is " you" didnt come from anywhere. The words " come" , " from" and " anywhere " are just constructs from the IMagiNation of the mind. The mind creates illusions. Refer to eternity, and the mind immediately " thinks" of an enormously long time. I think therefor I am, becomes I am ,therefor I think. But now my thoughts are knowingly produced " from" consciousness, consciously. Awakening had no start of finish. No time involved.
@@aphysique
NonDuality is a wunderful tool to simply realize the self but NOT the ultimate truth. Because the self in itself is NOT the ultimate truth.
Every Spiritual Master who claims to have realized the ultimate truth as the Self should be asked, from where the whole manifested world, the human mind and consequently its thoughts, emotions and desires comes from?
If he replies that everything is manifested out of the self then he should be asked, if this is truly his experience?
If he says yes, he should be asked if he CONSCIOUSLY invented e.g. the frog or created the sun?
If he says yes, well then is is a fraud! And if he says "no I didn't CONSCIOUSLY invented nor created anything" then ask him what "higher force" did so, that he is not aware of? And why on earth he claims to have realized the ultimate truth?
@Pike Fisherman Are you implying that non duality is a fraud or those who espouse the principles involved?
@Pike Fisherman My spiritual unfolding comes through me not to me. Nothing " new age " about that. Just more people have evolved to that stage and the powers of religious dictatorship is diminishing. The "Power Of Synchronicity" is more applicable. Now is always now.
I love this man

"To My Friends
Dear friends, I say friends here
In the larger sense of the word:
Wife, sister, associates, relatives,
Schoolmates, men and women,
Persons seen only once
Or frequented all my life:
Provided that between us, for at least a moment,
Was drawn a segment,
A well-defined chord.
I speak for you, companions on a journey
Dense, not devoid of effort,
And also for you who have lost
The soul, the spirit, the wish to live;
Or nobody or somebody, or perhaps only one, or you
Who are reading me: remember the time
Before the wax hardened,
When each of us was like a seal.
Each of us carries the imprint
Of a friend met along the way;
In each the trace of each.
For good or evil
In wisdom or in folly
Everyone stamped by each.
Now that the time presses urgently,
And the tasks are finished,
To all of you the modest wish
That autumn will be long and mild."

Do you have this in writing ?
Great answer
Rupert: _"This damn kid again!"_
Does it mean that soul/atman that reincarnates throughout many lives doesn't exist?
How can we explain the memories of past lives of different people? There are even evident proofs of past events that these people convey.
And again, many religions base their whole philosophies on the concept of soul.
Yet, i don't know what's true, i'm just curious
Hey Olan... good observation. After you die, the dream continues.. it would be much easier to understand everything when you see in what way and why consiousness is the only reality there is.. if you want me to explain it step by step so you could understand it, i would do it.. here..
@Love of music Hello Dear, I would love to hear your thoughts on dream consciousness has and how it continues. My understanding so far is that Soul/Mind/our identity is like a cloud in the sky (consciousness) nobody personally owns it, it's of consciousness. I believe that the cloud/ the content stays there in consciousness eternally as a new cloud is born out of it but the original cloud never disperses. My analogy could be way off but I would love to hear other people analogies. Thanks.
@@fingrad96 Hey Pete :) actually my take on this is very much the same. I love your analogy of clouds... there is an element in experience which causes confution when we try to disclose what is actually taking place. That element is reality. So this is my take on - reality: somehow i came to see that the only thing that can possibly exist at all, is consciousness. An awareness. The nature of awareness is to witness and cause a motion of experience. Even when there is nothing to experience, awareness is there. If there could be an absence of awareness .....well..... my mind cannot go there and find anything to depict that. Let's just say that an absence of consciousness can not occur due to what it is, its own nature. Experience is its motion. It experiences everything all at once. It has no location, no duration, no beginning or end. It is the only thing there can be. We can say it experiences itself. So, it is the experience of consciousness that i am. And everything that goes on, is simply experiences of consciousness... birds, flowers, metal, water, ghosts, souls, individual separate sense of being, countless realms... they are all impressions and animations which are real because of experiencing. The raw witness is their reality. That is how they could also be viewed as illusions.. which they are not due to the simple fact of sanity. They are real and are only images in consciousness.. this is where you get into the mechanics of perception..
I know we talk of the same thing using different words.. as i said, i totally share your viewpoint... :)) xx
@@malabuha thank you. That's a very crystal clear explanation. All the concepts and illusions are there, they are present, suffering and pleasure. Taking a seat as a consciousness and looking at everything from that perspective does help does psychologically. It's lovely how lnvested we get in the play of the consciousness. But maybe that's how the dream was designed to be. Have been on this non dual journey for about 4 years now. It definitely has given me a freedom of a kind that is eternal, no fear anymore. Life has become a process of fulfilling the needs of this body, my family. Just like a mother looks after a child, that's how I've started perceiveing myself. With innocence, tenderly nurturing myself, just as I'm a child and I consciousness(mother) has to take care of. It creates duality I know... But living this way definitely has brought a peace and balance of kind. I wish everyone had. Thanks for replying. It's really heartwarming to know there are people, who have found themselves too.
@@fingrad96 absolutely... you make so much sense. Finding a way to experience life in a pleasent peaceful way and nothing beyond that is really neccessary. Sometimes the experience is not very comfortable, and that's when one takes the consciousness seat. Because all types of feelings will keep rising up. Everything is included and part of experience. When you say we get invested in happenings of life.. that investment is also part of experience. I make a fool of myself and feel ashamed afterwards is also part of experience. I try to avoid seeing experience as dream bc there is no other reality appart from this one and every sentient being deserves to experience love and acceptance from others, which can get dissentsized by misunderstanding that a dream is something fictional and all the players in it are illusion.. that could explain why investement is neccessary. Idk.. thanks for chatting with me, i appreciate it very much :)
Wow. Just wow.
For the first time, I have to say...I BELIEVE. the question was not answered ❗️
Time does not exist in the universe as we experience it on earth where our movement around the sun determines our intellectual understanding of time and space. For consciousness there is no before or after or now. Lives are not experienced linearly. Years, days, minutes mean nothing. Therefore there are no linear experiences such as choices, decisions regarding this life then the next for consciousness.
I like him very much but I disagree with his statement, I firmly believe that there is a separate soul and it choses to incarnate in particular occasions!
Of course you do because the ego refuses to believe in its own dissolution, this fear in the ego is the basis of all religions....let me be for ever and ever, it doesn't work that way. There is no evidence for a soul.
@@albundy9597 no evidence for no soul. Put your ego away and let others have their opinions.
Think he was a bit out of his depth on that one
❤️❤️❤️❤️
His thinking is another illusion.
