    It's like in tough moments, like when I hear sad or disturbing news, and I zoom out and remind myself that "me", or the person I'm feeling sad about is not the body and then i feel like an eagle soaring above everything, just observing... that's what looking in from outside the bubble feels like. I'm so glad you explained that first we have to see what we are not... that part about being outside the bubble and not all of it had me pondering... but it's all clear now! Deepest gratitude Terry 🙏

    The bubble exercise for me is awesome.
    It occured to me one day while i was considering the exerice of the analogy of the modern TV monitor images being everything we can know about and we being the screen it plays on which is independent and uneffected by all that occurs then it hit me; imagine that the activity instead of being 2D ir now 3D and is all around our view point yet we are still the independent /uneffected screen it plays on.

    Terry, I watched this video 4 or 5 times. It is a great pictorial demonstration in order to understand "what you are not." It is the same as the headless/faceless pointer by Harding. However at this point, first intellectually and then energetically or instinctually I feel that I have gone as far as I can and exhausted all exertions through meditation which might be painful. I certainly have a sense of deep "knowing" there is "something" on the other side of the "door, glass, or fabric" (the "veil" of sense of separation). Yet there is no "other side," it is just like waking up from a sleeping dream. In mediation, going deeply into the present instant moment or "nowness," aggressively negating the future and the past, exerting into nothingness, and kept asking "what is this" or "what is it" and kept staying in the "quietness," "nothingness." Some times, I feel running though the door, running through glass, ripping through the fabric of separation. Some times I point at my faceless (without a mirror) and aggressively demand "what am I." I feel like a bad ass detective interrogating a seemingly "person" with a light shining on it, but then when the light is moved away from the seemingly "person," the "person" disappears. The light shines upon unreal things. When there is no light, you cannot see the unreal things. But the blank screen (the unknowable and unseen) is "alive," loving and caring. There is no "where" to go. Consciousness or awareness cannot or do not go any where because there is no "where." Just like empty space cannot go any where because there is no "where" or location in empty space. There is no getting "there" too. It is already here and now. Again, these are just words. Thank you.🙏

    If we are the overall awareness ‘observing’ everything, why is my experience limited to what is seen, felt, etc from the location of this body?

      Where would you expect to experience it from?

    • @rosskirkpatrick467
      @rosskirkpatrick467 Рік тому

      So has awareness localised itself into all these humans? Can ‘we’ ever experience ourself from an un localised perspective?

    • @TerrenceStephens
      @TerrenceStephens  Рік тому +1

      @@rosskirkpatrick467 Yes indeed, location is based on mind and consciousness, being conscious of, it’s mind that divides and creates seeming location (thoughts). Consciousness and mind creates seeming duality, you cannot have mind without consciousness, however consciousness without mind is nondual and consciousness has no location. Consciousness is therefore that that is being sought which is ridiculous for it needs not be sought, the problem is the idea that personal self is conscious and it simply isn’t, personal self is a construct of mind only, a story, idea, label or concept, can a concept be conscious?

    • @rosskirkpatrick467
      @rosskirkpatrick467 Рік тому

      Thanks Terry. Everything I read there I feel like I agree with it 100%. I know it makes sense and I get that the ‘me’ is very simply just an idea believed in, but I think I maybe haven’t seen this clearly enough and I sense that the ‘me’ is scared (obviously) to let fully go, if that makes sense. Plus I have issues with pain and sensations in the body which are hindering this.
      I think I may need to get a 1-1 arranged with you.
