He never said trust no one. He said do not make relationships or people a source of your happiness, they do not always last, and we all know it's true.
one of the strongest arguments I read against solipsism is simply that there is so much that our 'individual' window is constantly surprised at or not aware of. At the very least that implies some sort of relative split between experience & experiencer. I am not saying such a split exists in absolute terms, but maybe more akin to what Rupert is calling 'limited' mind....
Does anyone else feel like, what's the point of being in relationships at all? What's the point of falling in love? If we always reach this conclusion, why tempts ourselves with something that doesn't exist.
@@cjayguga8795 There is no falling in love. We start from love and then in relation to our human experience, our goal is to investigate (realizing in our own experience that we are love or the One), communicate, share and celebrate love, the one infinite reality. Intimate relationship in one of the numerous ways a human being express its reality, God's infinite being. That is the purpose of relationship. We realize also that an intimate relationship is not a relationship between two people, it is a relationship of two people with God or more accurately the two people sacrifice themselves to God (the One) and their relationship is the fruit (the expression) of that sacrifice.
Understanding that 'What' we are transcends our worldly identities leads to profound peace. It does not change our essential nature as it has been the same all along; it just aligns our actions to this core realization and thus we become trustworthy to the eyes of others. I used to listen to this song sung by Dionne Warwick in my adolescence; it would bring tears of sadness in the body of a young woman imagining ways to 'not' get caught in this game. This is K D Lang's version.

Here is the correct lyrics. Apparently there is another song with the same name... (Theme From) Valley of the Dolls Dionne Warwick Gotta get off, gonna get Have to get off from this ride Gotta get hold, gonna get Need to get hold of my pride When did I get, where did I How was I caught in this game When will I know, where will I How will I think of my name When did I stop feeling sure, feeling safe And start wondering why, wondering why Is this a dream, am I here, where are you What's in back of the sky, why do we cry Gotta get off, gonna get Out of this merry-go-round Gotta get off, gonna get Need to get on where I'm bound When did I get, where did I Why am I lost as a lamb When will I know, where will I How will I learn who I am Is this a dream, am I here, where are you Tell me, when will I know, how will I know When will I know why
I've been knock unconscious and experienced a while where I wasn't there. where can I find something that is constant if awareness wasn't even there. the only thing I can comprehend as secure and everlasting is ground
U go there to Talk about the relationships and all of this videos end up saying connect with your consciousness is the only secure thing. (And all the spiritual teachers are happily married)What if this is another ego strategy to feel in power, ?!?
We find ourselves in the exact same criminal situation. The only difference seems to be the amount of time - it has been much longer for me. Still, the point I wanted to make is that the nature of what has been done to us is criminal no matter how positive we try to see things - it is illegal. Ultimately we want to live ... and we want to have a happy life. This criminal scheme is beyond nationality. Believe me, I went to Russia for 3 times hoping that on the other side of the world I would eventually be free from the persecution. It turned out that I was spied over there as well and by the same people who spy us now - the one world order is what this is. That is why I totally ignore politics today. It does not matter the country where we live; what matters is the mentality of the people especially the ones in power as those are the ones setting the rules for the ones down the ladder. I know it is difficult not to be able to count on the justice system to protect us; it is terrible actually. However, as I mentioned before, in 10 years nobody ever approached me in person or interfered with my personal life. People don't have the courage to approach another when they know that what they are doing is wrong - the cruel reality to be faced is, they have wanted to get rid of us though torture by turning us"disabled". Anyway, the point I am trying to make is, it is up to us what we do with our personal life in these circumstances. I rather do something interesting and adventurous than believe that I am condemned. We are not our thoughts but relatively speaking how we think makes all the difference. By the way, I get upset with misunderstandings between you and me especially because there is no direct communication. Still, we do what we can.
I like his explanations on trust in relationships but don't like his explanations on sollipsism. It is ultimately a belief or inference in my opinion. In my experience "my" awareness does have some boundaries, although they are not clear cut...I am not aware of what is currently happening in 99,9999999999999% of this world/universe so how can I state that my awareness has no limits?
The small 'I' can only know what is happening within the illusory boundary of its existence. Have you seen Rupert's 'Mary and Jane' analogy? It helps overcome this misconception.
A 6/10 for this bouquet. It has some unexpected elements and interesting juxtapositions but is poorly arranged. And the immature choice of ribbon to wrap the vase is a head scratcher.
Because they are natural and beautiful and ephemeral which is a wonderful thing and because consciousness loves flowers and beauty. Hence, flowers are an extension of consciousness' natural creativity. How does that sound?
saidas108 Sigh. I loved this video tonight as it was exactly what I needed to hear. I hope the inner message sticks. I really find that holding on to those, what I call, mystical and magical moments is not easy. Like holding a snowflake.
Truly good friendships are usually not authentic anyway. That's what also has to be thought about. Ultimately, one cannot even have total trust in thyself, or even God. Eg. Disappointments are likely to occur a lot. To accept disappointments, and to accept life is not really true, is half the battle. Eg. I say this, because God is a lie, and this fairytale life is a lie, and often what ppl really know and imagine about others, is a lie. Our past and future are also lies. As the past and future never actually happened. Life is merely a fleeting slide show of illusions, that make up this madness. Eg. Most of our lives are made up of guesswork, fantasizing and imagining, pretending to be what ppl think they should be like, and how others should be like, based on others opinions, who ppl don't really even know, yet alone know really exist. Acting on social conditioning, media influence, and conforming out of fear 😜. Therefore, how much is actually able to be trusted as our own reality, except for the common general things which we all share, that are there each day. That is what we can trust. And that is our true abundance, and path of least resistance. Eg. Such as ppl buying their fruit and vegetables from the market. I have never seen ppl at war in the fruit and vege section. People are always calm and considerate, because it's a shared affair that we can all relate to.
He`s wrong there. One cannot have awareness without a brain or a body. This is where he is carelessly treading into metaphysics invoking a ciruclar reasoning.
we can appreciate relationships more when we allow them "BE" as they are.
Rupert is the most authentic and geninue Human . He speaks from the present now and here ! Hence , there lies his ever present wisdom .
I love the way he speaks. How he pause and think before talk, theway he pronounce words, wow, he looks so wise....
Trust that which is always present, which is never changing......💖
Wow!
There’s nothing in this world that can be trusted....
The perennial understanding. Christ said it in many ways. Buddha the same. And Krishna. Putting real faith in anything in the world is pure madness.
The greatest teaching probably ever ^
Trust no one is a good teaching? dont think so...this guy is a nut job.
He never said trust no one. He said do not make relationships or people a source of your happiness, they do not always last, and we all know it's true.
@@MightyCrazy You completely misunderstood this teaching.
This leads me to invest myself and my life into God.
Dan Stark invest... what interest rate do you expect? How long do you want to play with thought objects?
The man is a poet!
I respect the honest sincerity
Awareness has no limits and infinite
We perceive ourselves on our experience
Thank you dear Rupert love! As to why he/they sit by flowers: for beauty....nature
great dialogue in the second half of the video. so eloquently structured
Thank you Rupert ! I appreciate all your messages :)
This man is a Genius So Wise insightful perceptive God I Love what he says Invest in what is Secure "Brilliant"😀

"Nothing your mind knows is reliable."
Does that include stepping of a 12 story building? Actually serious about this question
Can you imagine anything more beautiful natural than flowers?
Space for the Soul yes, flowers in their natural habitat.
6:28 wow I replayed this part over a few times. Powerful.
Thank you!

Well if you look at many spiritual teachers they seem to have come to that conclusion.
It's a part of the ride we call existance.

Valley of the Dolls
MARINA
In the valley of the dolls we sleep, we sleep
Got a hole inside of me, of me
Born with a void, hard to destroy with love or hope
Built with a heart, broken from the start and now
I die slow
In the valley of the dolls, we sleep
Got a hole inside of me
Living with identities
That do not belong to me
In my life, I got this far
Now I'm ready for the last hoorah
Dying like a shooting star
In the valley
In the valley
In the valley
Pick a personality for free
When you feel like nobody, body
Born with a void, hard to destroy with love or hope
Built with a heart, broken from the start and now
I die slow
In the valley of the dolls, we sleep
Got a hole inside of me
Living with identities
That do not belong to me
In my life, I got this far
Now I'm ready for the last hoorah
Dying like a shooting star
In the valley
In the valley
In the valley
Back to zero, here we go again, again
Racing down into oblivion
Back to zero, here we go
I can feel it coming to the end
The end
In the valley of the dolls, we sleep
Got a hole inside of me
Living with identities
That do not belong to me
In my life, I got this far
Now I'm ready for the last hoorah
Dying like a shooting star
In the valley
In the valley
In the valley
In the valley
In the valley
Perfect thank you 🙏

(Theme From) Valley of the Dolls
Dionne Warwick
Gotta get off, gonna get
Have to get off from this ride
Gotta get hold, gonna get
Need to get hold of my pride
When did I get, where did I
How was I caught in this game
When will I know, where will I
How will I think of my name
When did I stop feeling sure, feeling safe
And start wondering why, wondering why
Is this a dream, am I here, where are you
What's in back of the sky, why do we cry
Gotta get off, gonna get
Out of this merry-go-round
Gotta get off, gonna get
Need to get on where I'm bound
When did I get, where did I
Why am I lost as a lamb
When will I know, where will I
How will I learn who I am
Is this a dream, am I here, where are you
Tell me, when will I know, how will I know
When will I know why
Brilliance! 😎
the only way to build trust....is to trust someone
Thank You💚
Thank you......
purely awesome
I am laughing at my years of believing the litter mind...wow

What was it that knows 'you' weren't there? If you know 'you' weren't there, obviously something must've been there to know that.
Guess you’ve never experienced an earth quake
What has never left you? Eye. Right or left?
aye

the headless way also has some good pointers
Rupert has never really properly refuted solipsism from direct experience, Francis Lucille does a much better job
As a matter of fact, (almost) pink elephants do exist 😉. Anyway, thank you for your profound teachings. 🙏

Has anyone ever figured out why these people always have to sit next to some flowers?
perhaps flowers as symbol of Beauty of Consciouness that All is :)
Yes. In a word...ambience.
Flowers are trustworthy and represent presence • peace
Because they are natural and beautiful and ephemeral which is a wonderful thing and because consciousness loves flowers and beauty. Hence, flowers are an extension of consciousness' natural creativity. How does that sound?

Does your mind know this to be true?
Yes I think the mind can see shoes, what's buggin me is the flowers..... why are they there? Is it mother's day
This guy needs a younger model
