    This is just how my guru has been instructing me! Now you've made it clear what's happening and why it's happening so fast. Again, you need to know how valuable a teacher you are to us, Forrest. Just the sound of your voice and demeanor is soothing and life-affirming to all of us. There is no one like you. Very grateful our paths were meant to cross in this incarnation-just the catalyst I needed to wrap things up!

    Dearest guruji! An analogy is the coin. When you look at the coin it looks non-dual then you examine each side and you discover its dual nature. It is of course one and the same! Thank you so very much! May the Blessings of our Mother shower over you and your family!

    You've helped me loosen my insistence on the spiritual journey being only comprised of non-duality. The trap is that it feels more scientific and therefore more appropriate in our modern time to only contemplate non-dual reality as opposed to any phenomenal spiritual experiences. That way we can regard any talk of energy, higher selves, different dimensions, etc as mumbo jumbo spiritual talk that doesn't have any merit. Meanwhile we can claim that the non-dual path is the only real one because it deals with ultimate reality and cannot be proven or disproven by phenomena. its a trap! Thank you so much Forrest as always.

      The irony is my non-dual contemplation has never been better now that I practice 'energetic' techniques and other dualistic practices! all attests to what you are teaching.

    yes, excellent talk. the nondual state and the dual state sort of co-create one another, so when you go from one to the other you are kind of climbing up a ladder to more reinforcing cocreation (best way i can fumble and explanation of how i see it.) thanks again, peace.

    God is infinite, same as the paths and I can say by my own experience some paths are shorter , Kriya is the fastest path to God ( higherself) . Ishta devata to me It is like the 4 proof in the beginning works when you progress you get to a higher truth,if you want to go beyond It is dual with form and formless but you have to start with form to feel comfortable and from there you can experience the infinite formless God 🙏. God bless you Forrest!!

    Pranam guruji 🙏.
    Its been a difficult challenge to unlean , brought up as hindu with many gods and which single one to pray was a challenging task.
    Realizing all gods leads to same made life easy.
    I think as long as life in this body stays I(ego) survival instincts exsit , duality exsit .
    The day maya is removed will we not realize everything in bhraman until then get the grace of all paramathmas .
    As swami rama once said "how will you know he or she or it is Jesus and if he come near you and wants to hug you will you recognize or run away ?" . Bhraman is everything and everyone.
    as lahari baba said there are two states shiva (non dual) and shikthi (duality in all beings and manifestations ) . Both same so we pray ardhanareshwar(half shiva half shakthi) and together we recognize as bhraman.
    May we all realize our true eternal nature of bhraman 🙏.
    Excuse my ignorance and bless gurudev. Pranam 🙏🙏🙏.

    Hey Boss, Debra here. It's been awhile! I'm not sure if you remember me, I sure remember you and your awesome teachings. I've been learning alot lately from all over the place and I'm enjoying it. My meditation practice has not gotten off the ground at all I'm afraid. I am still practicing HRV resonance tho. I understand how important it is. I'm learning as much as I can about energy and how our electromagnetic energy flows and its importance to flow without resistance. Do you know Dr. Sue Morter of the Morter Institute? I have been following her of late and I so enjoy her perspective and her Energy Codes! I have her book on the codes and I've been practicing her teachings. It took a little while before I started realizing change, now I see it has been quite significant. I was just wondering if you could give me any of your thoughts on her and her teachings? Or is this too open a platform for such a discussion?
    I missed you Boss, but I haven't forgotten anything you've taught me. It was great to watch your video with your truly specialized method of teaching, and your extraordinarily

    Hi Forest, maybe I'm going to sound like an utter beginner here but I do meditation once in awhile for about 15 to 20 minutes breathing in about 3 to 4 breaths per minute, sometimes meditation it's kind of bland and other times it's more relaxing and peaceful, I have watched a lot of your videos but I have yet to come close to anything called Bliss, I do have low-level to mid-level depression could that hamper Bliss? Just wondering because I do want to feel a little bit Bliss I think this would greatly benefit me

    • @ForrestKnutson
      @ForrestKnutson  3 роки тому

      Yes it would. So I'll give you two pieces of homework. First try out the timeline therapy walkthrough and see if you can eliminate that little bit of low level depression. We won't get rid of or radically change your life, but we can certainly feel better about it. Second, try out the guaranteed Bliss video. And remember that this body Bliss begins as almost as if it is a tickle just a tiny little thing. See if you can feel just a little inkling of that Bliss and don't look for anything big. And then keep practicing that guaranteed Bliss each day. Okay and here is the third piece of homework, try out the cute baby meditation and do that each day because it's going to strengthen your connection to the left amygdala which is where the very big Bliss is stored. Okay so now we have a 1 2 3 approach. 🙏😁

    Dear Guruji, I have loved the meditation path you have shown me. But I am confused. If my right side of brain is my higher self then what is Atman or Soul. As a hindu I have always believed in Atman/Soul and hope I can realise that through meditation. Please enlighten me about consciousness as well.
