The Ecstasy of Aloneness - Rainer Maria Rilke
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- As one of the greatest of the 20th century mystical poets, Rainer Maria Rilke’s ecstasy can be felt pouring through his peerless poetic searching. In this monologue, Richard creates a sacred space in which Rilke’s beautiful words are given centre stage. It is through his love of aloneness and space that Rilke rises to crescendos of celestial transport that powerfully anticipate a future collective awakening.

This was the deepest experience of Rilke I’ve ever streamed tears through. Thank you. This fed my soul
I have no understanding of how this found me today! Trusting the divine perhaps! I knew nothing of Rilke! Though clearly I did! You, your words, your guidance was indeed divinely crafted! I found myself pausing! Writing! Emotional! Liberated, just to name a few! I scribbled words as if they were not of me but knowing within they were always my words! Patiently waiting inside for me to open the bars, to set them free! Going within! Transcending & alchemizing the unknown languages that have always been ME! I could go on obviously as you have opened a door! A portal, the bars! I am the panther! I am the masculine & the feminine! Thank you! I don’t know who you are or where you’ve been or why now but thank you!
I feel a wave of sadness after listening to these. What a wonderful masterpiece especially "The Panther" part, I almost cried. Thanks for sharing your genius with us sir Rilke!
Dear Richard what a moving and deep gift it is to hear you bring forth the spirit of the poet and poem!!! Forces the gates of hearts open and gets us out of our busy minds !!! Thank you for your great service
This is so inspiring and moving. It's beyond words to describe the joy I feel inside when I find such great teachers of life. Both you, Richard, as well as Rilke (that I didn't know till now) are amazing people that spread the true knowledge and touch the untouchable.
This was great! I absolutely loved it! I was listening to you as I was walking through a snowy forest with noone around and it really resonated with me. It is great that there are still people like you around, even though they are rare to find. Sending love from Poland 💙
I keep coming back for your teachings Rainer. Thank you endlessly
Profound ! With much gratitude for your heart Richard Rudd 🙏
Your profound understanding of Rilke is pure inspiration for me, in that the contact I’d had with his poetry was rather limited, and in those days I had very little grounding in the poetic, and a terror of being alone. It seems things have changed in many ways. Thank you for your splendid insights and reading.🙏
Pure bliss. Thank you.
Beyond words ...touched deeply in the heart residing in the void...the nothingness and the all❤❤❤
I found Richard a couple of days ago talking about Shakespeare and so was led to this. I held my breath and gasped in equal measure and cried with the Panther. This was such an intense experience, I feel kind of drained now but so glad to have found him and Rainer. I don’t know what to say really except that I am so glad to have found this and I will read his books and listen to all of his work (both Richard’s and Rainer’s) I feel blessed to live in a time where I am privileged enough to have the means to experience this. Rainer is extraordinary. I found him so , you know I can’t even say, words just don’t do it. Beyond words really. Thank you Richard. I’m so grateful for this.
This was one of the most beautiful experiences, thank you for this♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏
So inspiring and powerful truth !
I feel your words , your messages , in my deep core of being , thank you create and sharing this wisdom ...
Poetry for me is the way to express thought and feeling in its pure state. How to convey your thoughts into words. The true state of understanding. Thank you the video.
There are two kinds of poets - Rilke and every other poet.
Those rear birds are called mystics.
Hafiz is one of the same kind.
Right on. Wish I could read in German and understand by his language
Rumi and Hafiz have entered the chat 🙌 Rilke et al the same ilk
I really wonder if such a humble man doesn't deserve praise beyond his own ambitions. He was really clearly just trying to sort his own life out, and occasionally found the means to cling to peace and comfort and find their inner core and meaning. All things slip, all art vanishes eventually. But to Rilke that was a good thing. There's something, for Rilke, immortal beyond his own individuality. Perhaps best to keep Rilke a member of your family, who you walk with to enjoy watching them as they categorize the flowers in alphabetical order with their wonderful Latin names.
I love it how you describe the German language ❤
With Gratitude.
That was sublime.
I'm going to buy Rilke's poems via the Stephen Mitchell translations...in life's dream! I've got a number of his translations.
Your Spirit brings the Daylight and gently opens flowers at different cycles on Earth.
Thank you very much.
Peace 🙏💐🕊️❤️
That was amazing ! Thank you so much. Your ability to animate his words and his passions and to bring them to life was so inspiring. I'm so grateful.
So at the end I heard you say see you in the next one and I’m not seeing the next one. I’ve been so touched by this series I’d be ecstatic to see it continue.
Thank you Richard for sharing!!
Lovely video, would love to hear about Miss Anaïs Nin!
Not what I expected, more of what i needed.thank you
A pleasure
I'm way more into prose than poetry but your way of describing your interest and admiration to Rilke is immensely impressive, made me want to explore his works
Please forgive my ignorance what is the difference between
Very profound. Thanks so much really🌱✨
Wowo. Wowow. Wow. Wow. Thank you.
What astounidingly good talk. Thank you.
I came to Rilke because I am doing a study of Borges and he says Rilke wrote "perfect" poetry. Coming from a Master like Borges, I had to look him up. And thanks for the Stephen Mitchell tip, I am going to buy his translations.
Glad you enjoyed it....
Beautiful. I was alone when I listened. I am in a room full of people.
🖤 really enjoyed it. Thanks
This is so beautiful. Thank you 💙💙💙
Eminently excellent overhead presentation
This was truly beautiful. Thank you for this. It would be wonderful to hear your thoughts on Fernando Pessoa and his poetry.
Thanks Igor...will check him out
I recently bought his book and was blown away by Fernando
Dear Friends,
yes, we can not learn Poetry but it's the Language of the heart !
In search of the own self people can do that !
I had written in different languages ...and it was the time few years back...I have written nothing since last 20 years !
This is the language of the Heart...above our Mental body ...It comes spontaneously !
Thanks for this ...Richard !

Poetry is life, you can't study it - well said. I agree
I am looking for the englisch Version of Nachtfall und Sternenhimmel . Can anybody help me out ?
What's the violin piece called in the background?

utopianism which was built on poor knowledge of history and philosophy, and literature
I don’t understand - - you spend five minutes speaking of the power of words, the places that words take us…But you don’t seem to trust in the magic and power of words enough to not feel a need to enhance them with music- The kind of music that is supposed to make us feel a certain way. Yes it’s beautiful music, but it undercuts what you’re saying about words. It seems you don’t really trust the words you’re saying about words :-)
I couldn't disagree more
Totally agree. Especially, for me, the fact he does not read the poem with any exhibition of knowledge as to how the music requires his reading to be in confluence/dissonance to the music justify it being there at all.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you from the bottom of my soul; Rilke, Tarkovsky, Coltrane, Clarice Lispector and so many others are huge part of myself. How I recognize my values and duties as a human being inside this confused, chaotic and cruel World. We are all plowing our souls daily to be a better person, learning every day. Where living goes beyond any understanding. The universe is with us.
My divine love to you who are reading this. ❤
🤍
First time listening to content on this channel. This was a profound reading of Rilke's work/soul. I finished my first read through of Letters to a Young Poet last night, I've never felt so connected to someone's words before, each verse like a mirror showing the unfiltered me to myself, like someone flinging open the windows in my room and letting in the light to both illuminate and cast shadows upon me as I search for myself through this phase of depression and mania and unable to find the words to explain my experience.
Really enjoyed this. Cello arrangements were just magical!
Evocative
Can I ask for the name of this cello music?
Yes, whenever I read poetry, I feel like strongly searching for my own self...
Same grl
This really speaks to heart, thank you for creating this work of art. I feel the frequency in every cell and all the spaces in between. Connecting to the silence of ecstasy. I was only introduced to Rilke today, and am totally enthralled by his work.
Beginning in March, imbibing the Gene Keys through many videos, my profile, The 64 Gene Keys, the Seven Seals; the Delta and now the Venus Sequence Deep Dive, reaches a crescendo with the Ecstatics. Their reassurance is of not being wrong and mad but of being misunderstood for unshared insights and understanding. Frustration and irritation of a sea of ordinariness born from barren imaginations is beginning to wane as self-love and adoration builds. Relief. Even happiness. "All shall be well and all shall be well and all manner of things shall be well." (Julain of Norwich)
So glad I found this! It"s right up my alley.
Love Rilke!
I feel like I can’t thank you enough for this experience. Also, mentioning Machado really resonated.
Cesar Chavez?
One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life!!! Thank you Richard 💜🙏
@@gene_keys I have been!! Thank you so kindly!!!! 😊💝⚘
This was incredible. Deep gratitude for your powerful words and delivery, along with the music!🙏 You have made Rilke come even more alive for me, after decades of loving his poetry, and an intensive recent (ongoing) book group study of Daniel Polikoff's 'soul biography' about him.
thanks Diana
I loved how you spoke of Rilke up until the moment that you started to recite the poetry, and I advise kind sir, to find a quiet place in yourself, and not try to read for the external…… only then you create this higher vibration through quietness rather than ego and trying to Put the sound of the meaning of the word into the way you recite, Rilke needs not that……only then will you actually be able to recite Rilke.
Every molecules,atoms quarts pulled me during meditation with your voice and his poetry towards what which is couldn't come in words yet not ......
Nothing in manifested world could bring even a glimps to what is indiscribable ,reach to a say of Rumi "the language of good is slilence and others is a poor translation ".thanks to you and all signs of manifestation.
Lovely. At times, I didn’t know the difference between Rilke’s poetry and Rudd’s ✨💜✨
wow Richard, that's all me. I do not know how to explain it. I will simply say that it held me deeply and extensively. It has taken me hours to hear everything and I printed his letters to read better (my native language is Spanish).
I even consulted the profile of this man, whom until yesterday I did not know, but our profiles have nothing in common. I know they are collective things, but how can the connection be so intense and precise? I was looking at 15, 12, 11, 24 and 44 .... Even with the Panther...While reading I remembered that day years ago. I never wanted to go to the zoo, a shaman from Germany forced me and the catharsis that I felt in front of that panther shook me enormously. I couldn't stop crying deep and so full of life at the same time ... And while I was listening to you, I was thinking of the words in my head to relate it... But you told it.
Huge thanks from my heart and the wound that lives in it.
so beautiful! brought me closer to poetry and into life again.
Thanks from heart!
Profound, touching, transformative. Such a blessing! Thank you 🙏🤍🍯
This video is so liberating. Thankyou tons for this.

Thank you for making this. So beautiful.
Wie viel Zärtlichkeit, wie viel natürliche Bewegung! How much tenderness, how much natural movement! DANKE. Ich verneige mich. Deep bow.
That was beautiful thank you so much!
utopianism, which was built on poor knowledge of history and philosophy, and literature-, this is not my opinion, this is my evidence of poor knowledge, as if from a well-educated person..

That was fantastic! Thank you RR and RMR
Wow. Thanks for this video. So succinctly and eloquently described
This was a surreal experience! I'm sure no listener could thank you enough.
I don't like stupid things from weakly developed people..
Ahh, there are many types of genes: poets, yes, and other guys in love with their own ordinary voice, Levis, and Wranglers…
amazing....there are no words to express the depth this reached into my essence. thank you. magical 🦋
I’m new to Rilke. Looking forward to the journey.
He just keeps talking about himself instead of about Rilke
Great voice and lovely pronunciation! Thanks a lot.
Thanks vm but how I wish it was done without that rather loud music.
The subtitles are not consistent with the oral presentation.
This a crazy title , Rilke wasn’t lonely
What a treasure you've given!
Gratitude ❤️
A deep thank you from me. 😌✨🤍🙏🏾
Brave and quiet I stay
Richard thank you. You are changing my life. Rilke is changing my life and holding me during my deepest aloneness, I feel.
Pausing before we get into his poetry to first listen to him in his native tongue. Thank you thank you, thank you 🙏🏼
Poetress Here, where are you?
Exquisite
So beautiful....Thank you
Thank you brother
Celebrating the awe in my tears as I discover this “old friend”. Thank you Richard for bringing him to life for those of us who didn’t know this ecstasy.
Eurydice is pronounced with an "s", not a "ch". Other than that, absolutely wonderful and very in spirit of Rilke's poetry... mediation.
Thanks for setting me right there. I think I must have caught that from someone else! I forget who....
I think you may be incorrect. I’m sure Richard knows how to pronounce it
How dare that heavy rain have perfect timing! I'm a very childish poet who aspires to maintain that childish wonderland of self for as long i can. I'm learning now to rest assured at its continuation even as it slips into my subconscious rhythm and pulse of life. Your words and narrative have done a wonderful job of silenting my troublesome inner monologue to sing in unison with your words, and feel them and understand them.
Thank you for your readings, your thoughts and feelings, and your candor. I can feel a very loving genuine self, and you've brought me a comfort to experience Rilke with you.
Unless of course, I'm overstating things, and should force a little chuckle so as to say, "Oh no, of course i didn't mean any of that" and spill into the awkward cult of irony that consumes my generation.
Anyways, thanks! :)
Pure beauty in all its richness. I’ve been blessed by this and I thank you for your passion that awakens us further into our passions. I am so in love with your sharing, expression and outpouring of grace through your experience of these profound beings. I ruminate rapturously in this living experience of The Ecstatics.
Lovely, that was awesome. It wasn’t raining here when I listened now I know my Relationship better and what it is with Poetry that attracts me. I got the Essence and I am confident. TY Bro
You are a Great Teacher ....
Much gratitude for the poems selected, for the depth of analysis and power in the reading!
I feel like I'm being hypnotised more than meditating. Any change can stick to the poet?
I can hear Nietzsche and Heidegger talking here, too.
Thank you, this is so profound.....It touched my heart.....
Excellent! Thank you.
you must change your life
