Before doing this meditation please make sure that you have taken time to practice the technique described in part 1.
In this series of guided meditations, it is important to have the correct relationship to the instructions in the guided meditation. The meditative technique of focusing on the breath must be understood as simply a way to divert energy from the mind, and to bring consciousness deep into the unconscious aspects of your being. The technique is not something to add to your mind or self structure. Any technique is a "thorn to remove a thorn", so you must be willing to let it go once it has served its purpose. As you move closer to Samadhi there is less mind, less technique, and less self, until there is a cessation of all activities of the self structure. This cessation of self is Samadhi, and in that stillness the dawning of wisdom or prajna is possible. Prajna is wisdom of the truth of who and what you are. It is not the sort of wisdom you learn or store in the limited mind, but it is directly realized when the mind becomes a servant to the unfathomable source, or the heart of your being.

I have caught glimpses of samadhi here and there only to have the ego pull me back into reactionary existence. It's okay. Just be still and observe. Listen and you will arrive. Hindrance becomes your teacher if observed. Thank you for sharing your journey.
The world needs to know this. This is a game changer for me and I have the utmost gratitude 🙏🏾 thank you friends
I've been practicing my meditation over these last few weeks and wow am I starting to see results. But now I finally understand how to observe my unconscious processes without trying to influence them. Before this I used to try and force every hindrance to go away. But no longer, I'm making progress. These guided sessions so far are really helping me. Thank you so much.
That's wonderful brother 😊😊❤️
Yes.
These meditations are just what I asked the universe to send me, I am so grateful.
Thank you ❤️
That's just Very AWESOME!😊
These meditation series are the best I have practiced so far. I am grateful for your contributions 🙏
No words to describe my gratitude! Our Universal Creator bless you! Namaste. Amen.
For the first time in my life I got explained the idea of grasping on the pleasure! Wow, mind blowing! Thank you!
Congratulations! Namastè
Thank you sooo much for all ur videos, no words can describe how much I grateful for u. Years of doing wrong Meditations, only by 30 mins you teach me how can meditation be 💚🙏🏻
I've found this so exciting! Meditating for 6 years and have always stumbled over the hindrances which has led to a lot of self doubt. My gratitude is immense!
Hello, Gregory! Do you mind exchanging some info with me? I have been meditation for 3 months, every single day for 1 hour. I have a few questions. You have been doing it for 6 years, maybe 7 noew.. I am sure you know much more about the process than me . Peace out. :-)
far and away the best and most helpful guided meditation in the whole web. thank you.🙏
Absolutely EXCELLENT !!!!! Trying for so long to get a good instructional on meditating and FINALLY here it is !!!!! Thank you
Appreciation from the depth of being for this gift of focused meditation. The exclusion of music in the background and perfectly timed inclusion of "guidance’" provides the idea condition to focus mind inward. Perception is shifting. Being aware of the contents in mind without self condemnation or self inflation is without doubt the way to be the clear, beaming light in the world I am here to be. 🙌✨✌️
Excellent explanation of the hindrances. I used to think that I wasn't meditating correctly because my mind gave me a lot of distractions. I now know that this is normal, and it's okay. Just come back to the breath or mantra.

Yes just imagine they are clouds passing by in the sky ☁☁☁
Thank you. Your voice just shares such peace.
I love all your meditation videos ,they are very useful, but I don't know why I neglect them for months, and then I come back .
I've been doing this for years
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this precious treasure!
Thank you for sharing this meditation. It really felt like a new sensation.
I have prayed blessings upon you many times 🙏🏻. I revisit your meditation videos about once a quarter and I listen to your music every week. You are my guru.
NAMASKAR! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS...I CAN RELATE TO EACH KIND OF HINDRANCES YOU TALKED ABOUT IN THIS SESSION AND IT WOULD REALLY HELP ME BEING AWARE OF THE BREATH AND THE HINDRANCES AND THOUGHTS JUST LET IT GO BY ITSELF!
This really helped me a ton today. I was able to manage my health anxiety-induced panic attack for the first time within a matter of seconds. It usually takes me 15-30 mins sometimes even lasts for hours before I feel okay. Thank you.
So appreciated for the reaching, it means even a quantum jump for my meditation practice
Thank you so much for the clear explanations and instruction. I have learned so listening to this.
I found much of this already through my Dojo, Zazen, and the Go Rin no Sho. This verifies my path already tread upon.
Thank you very much for your guidance and so helpful. I’ve noticed lots of hindrances surfacing mostly at the start of practice. Will keep going. Namaste 🙏
OMG....another one that I have overlooked!!! Simplicity and profound.
.........in humble gratitude 🙏
Thank you
Thank you so much for this great explanation of the obstacles to meditation. Thank you for all of the meditiations and the movie. Shanti Shanti Shanti Om
Well done if you stuck it out to the end, I was convinced an hour had passed only to see it was only 27 mins. well, time like pain is subjective, I like to dedicate any positives accumulated from my meditations to all beings gaining perfect samadhi this is a good way of putting a gold seal on your experience.
Thank you, these meditations are amazing. Also, they wake up the unconscious and give vivid dreams at night
Gratitued for what you give ❤️🙏
Thank you so much for the guidance. I feel like your videos have enhanced my spiritual journey. I experienced an awakening some years back. But videos like yours helps me so much in the embodiment process. 🙏🏿
Thank you for this video. Very informative and helpful ! ❤
Of all the Awaken the World videos, this one is the one I watch most. I won't stop listening until I know what he's saying before he says it.
Most comprehensive & descriptive guided meditation I ever have followed in my journey of seeking inner self.
This is the most simplest & clearest way of practicing "Sathipatthana" mindfulness taught in Theravada Buddhism, as stated in the pristine Dhamma discourses of Lord Buddha the Greatest Scientist of the Universe.
Thank you very much for undertaking this hard work of guiding enthusiastic individuals like us along the path to true happiness. Cheers from Sri Lanka 🙏
I just started on this one. I needed something more advanced than what I had been using the last couple years. Thank you!

Same here, I have a severely painful rare neurological disease triggered by an accident that injured my spinal chord, left me disabled and in severe pain constantly, now I'm not walking , I have to really get into a comfortable way, as much as possible, and than focus on this and it actually helps my pain go way down, who knows, maybe we can heal

Por favor, es imposible poner en Español el video, voy a configuraciòn y esta desactivado la opciòn en otros idiomas, que me sugieren hacer para poder poner el idioma Español, las pàginas no responden, es una làstima.....gracias
Thank you from My heart🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰
I thank you from my heart for the great filming and also meditation help ❤🙏🏼❤ unfortunately I'm not so powerful in the English language that everything can be understood so there is no flow and more thinking.
Therefore, please allow me the question of whether in the near future translation is planned and possibly German will be there.
I wish you the best of my heart to your heart and greet you 🌞🙏🏼🌞
Deeply appreciate your work. One minor point is around 18 minutes, Thoughts may arise from visual, auditory or kinetic (arising from feelings) sources
Yes- vedana, the sensory layer that is referred to in the teaching, is different than auditory and visual thoughts. The 5 skandhas have meanings that connect to inner experience and this differs from the common idea of thought. Regardless of language, it is important to be able to keep consciousness on vedana, prior to the triggering of auditory and visual thoughts. This is how we change the habit pattern of the mind to reside in the moment without egoic preference.
Really helpful and awesome
Thank you Sir.

Such beautiful, marvellous meditations! I did a lot of meditation so far but your ones are insane. They are really formed compact,you just mention the main important facts and there is no expanding of the sentences till pluto. I really love your meditations!!!, (as far as I can give a feedback, because I have only meditated to the first two ones so far.) Thank you for all your work. I am going to spend some money soon :D Keep going!! Ps. And I love your concept that you are not interested in money and that you take your time for the next movie. Why hurry, when the quality would be suffering? Your attitude is awesome :)
I've been using these for my meditation for several weeks now and, today I find that YT has inserted a 3 minute video before start entitled, "Am I Going to Hell?" Punishment, I guess, for using an ad-blocker.
Thank you. SIR. NAMASTÉ. 🇵🇷 🇵🇷 🇵🇷
Samadhi to emptiness or total emptiness depends on one's kamma and vipaka.
Oh hello!!!
This really helped me understand the nature of my mind. wow.
@AwakenTheWorldFilm in what category of skandha would you place the convergence of nodes of knowledge into a higher order insight? In my experience of these moments, while some include auditory or visual thought, others appear as a congealing of bits of knowledge and sensations, which I have always classified as a thought, but maybe it's a perception? Interested to hear your take?
Great question. Vinnana (the 5th skandha) or what is sometimes referred to as consciousness is actually what could be called higher mind or higher wisdom. When consciousness is disentangled from lower mind, it is free to operate as non-physical, in the akashic realm which is a sort of cosmic mind. Part of insight practice is to forge a bridge between higher and lower mind, which is a subtle layer of self. In Samkhya it is the wisdom body, vijnanamayakosha. Note the "maya" in this term. This is still part of the self structure. This is not the same as annata that is realized with the cessation of the skandhas, or the realization of the emptiness of self.
AwakenTheWorldFilm Ah, thanks for that explanation! That makes sense regarding insight, as it seems to be a derivative of typical thoughts but itself a higher order function using those thoughts as substrate.
And yes I am aware that anatta and sunyata are each two phenomenonally different realizations in and of themselves, thanks for qualifying that for folks who may have been pondering about that! I really appreciated the meditation, my practice had been in a plateau prior to watching, and the descriptions and reminders in this guided meditation initiated some lines of inquiry that have helped it to steadily deepen since. 🙏🕉☸
I couldn't bear the pain more than 55 minutes 😢
Are u ok??
you soon realize how hard it is to sit still on a chair eyes closed, and just breathe and listen to everything with no judgment. because of simply conditioning of the mind to constantly be stimulated. The mind is a monkey chitchatting all the time. We were brought up to believe that thinking is the way to solve our problems - believing that if you think harder, you will come up with a solution to solve your problem. Instead i think its the opposite. Do not do anything. Let the thoughts past and go- simply watch. Do not give energy into them,- relax and let nature take over- let your intuition take over
This is excellent. Thank you for sharing. Where can I find a link to the fractal image in this video? Thanks!
As soon as you stop speaking I fall asleep
(I) kept wondering what I was “surrendering” or who I was “surrendering” to. Then I figured it out, but then I forgot again. To abide with the breath....
any chance we can have an estimate regarding when part samadhi part 2 coming out? will there be a part 3 or 4?
warmaxxx yes there is a chance buddy
Part 2 out now!
Thank You for these videos. What would you call it when I can see in my mind's eye/3rd eye, Geometric golden(etc. colors) forming? I've also seen random people and places whom I don't know, while always observing without any expectations, attachment nor controlling. In self-hypnose I've seen some future visions, and past lives happenings, mostly traumatic, but also people and places from different countries and centuries. I've been able to feel what they felt. I have premonitory dreams sometimes, so I write them all up in my dream diary. I can also sleep while being aware of everything around me. Thank You for your time and response to those Geometric formations. Aho 🙏
Letting everything be as it is. When I practice non-dual “stuff” I get completely PISSED OFF, depressed and feel futile and ennui. Or like breaking things. Pretty extreme feelings and miserable, utter emptiness. Not during the meditation but all day until I move on to another form of meditation or chanting or prayer eventually when I feel like I can’t go on. My preference is not suffering!! Which this brings me! 😂 is this my old wiring dying? I’m so depressed.
i need subtitle. in indonesia or at least english
May I have the Text Format of these amazing series please? My intension is to translate them into Persian language and upload it here for people who speaks persian😊
