51:20 Does everything have consciousness? Not-knowing.
The heart of awareness. A meditative contemplation. What is solipsism?

22:10 What is our true body? Perception without localization.
35:59 Is a sage void of ambition and seemingly lazy? Do you get something new when you read Rumi's poetry? Freedom from victimhood. Does bliss (Ananda) shine through whatever is going on?
The fruit of spiritual understanding is happiness.
50:10 Relation between awakening to truth and esoteric stuff such as chakras, auras, kundalini and celestial beings. Do they have to do with self knowledge or are they part of the dream?

Video: Are emotions personal?

May 15, 2019

You lend your reality to all your dreams. All appearances borrow their reality from the one and only reality which is the reality of consciousness.
The reality of your experience is I-I/Consciousness.
Nothing in known outside of myself. Nothing exists outside of myself.
What is awareness?
Is there personal identification in having preferences? Preferences refer to the body mind but they do not refer to I/Consciousness.
The sweet sadness of separation and recollection of the love we celebrated.
I is everything. The reality of everything.
Celebrating the magical show of the universal Self. In order to celebrate this life you need to contemplate the reality of your experience.
False identification veils your true nature.
Noticing the I-thought and the tendency to pursue the I-thought.
Are all emotions personal? Do emotions indicate a lack of awareness?

Video: The direct path to happiness

May 15, 2019

Silence and guided meditation (I/Aware Presence) until 20:40
22:30 I feel separate from others since I cannot perceive or feel what others are perceiving or feeling. 
37:52: Fake it till you make it. The body mind is an object of your perception
42:16 Concerning the psycho emotional aspect of our experience, is it best for a truth seeker to turn to contemplation? Pursuing thoughts and sensations. Life is beautiful in presence. You block your permeability with your identity. Take the play seriously rather than yourself.
1:06:00 Freedom and Happiness. What do we mean by 'I'?
1:10:00 Is the felt sense of the body and object of perception?
1:13:00 Who meditates or seeks psychological help?

The direct path to happiness. Consciousness across time & space. Bodymind is an object of perception

Video: Thoughts and feelings do not define me

May 15, 2019

Silence until 4:15
4:18-21:40 Guided Meditation 
23:13 The experience of formless awareness, void of object/subject reveals more than the understanding of the Dharma 
31:35 Is it helpful for someone to know their own transparency? What is it that knows? 
35:26 The waking dream is consciousness play 
39:00 Identification with the body. The body is an appearance. You are not your car 
50;00 I/awareness is before the body. What is it that experiences? Does the body experience? 
56:50 Ignorance is a choice. The spinning top 
1:02;55 About: I am nothing and I am everything. Do I need to separate from form and then return to form? 
1:15:48 If I am identified with the body, of what good is it to say: I am not the doer? As a dream character, you are being dreamt. The ultimate dreamer is dreaming through you. There is no separate doer. There is only one doer and ultimately, there is no doer and no doing 
1:27 20 Engagement without identification. Fresh presence. The dream and the contemplation do not exclude each other. Attending, listening, watching from a place of stillness.
Non Duality: Am i defined by thoughts and feelings?

37:40 Your happiness increases when your faith is well placed....Non Dual contemplation: Objectifying the body. The forefeeling of truth. About faith.

Video: The full emptiness of being

May 15, 2019

1:55 Inquiry into feeling identified in the dream. For a truth lover, everything is an opportunity pointing to presence.
27:35 When you are relating out of the belief that you are a limited personal self, you are dissipating your energy.
45:50 Emotions come up, sometimes i see them and can be free from them and sometimes I cannot let go of anxiety.
1:06:30 When you fully awaken you go beyond love and hate and become silence (Robert Adams).

March 22, 2019

Any identity you hold onto, takes root into your psyche and limits your vastness.
