Thank you Michael. This is “the” most exquisite explanation of how we are to bring an end to our egos. If we took this one teaching of yours to heart you would have accomplished your mission. Thank you for your faithfulness to your mission. We
I’m truely convinced that Michael is the speaking voice of Sri Bhagavan 😇 This video is gold 🙏🏼 I pray my SadGuru Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda that one day I MUST become a great devotee like Michael 🙏🏼
Sri Ramana Maharishi teachings are very clearly and simply explained by You. Feel that Sri Ramana Maharishi is speaking through you. Thank you Thank you. My Pranams to You. Om namo Bhagavathe Sri Arunachala Ramanaya
Thank you Michaelji. Even though our real nature is God, we perceive ourselves as the Ego. Hence, we as Ego, need to pray or cry out to God or Self to shower His Grace and reveal Himself. That constant Bhava or pleading is required to Love Him and remain continuously in His thought in the mind to prevent it from going outside towards the world and push it inwards towards Him. Bhagavan said Bhakthi is the mother of Jnana. In Nan Yar, Bhagavan says repeating 'I' will take you to the place where 'I' rises. Or investigating from where I rises, will assist. So I keep contemplating that my Guru Bhagavan is shining in my heart as I and bequeath Him to swallow my Ego and shine forth and reveal Himself. Is this the Love or Ichashakthi to turn within you mentioned? Please advise. Om Namo Bhagavathe Sri Arunachala Ramanaya!

Michael is really only saying one thing - Turn Within. Until you do this, you will not experience the clarity of yourSelf, in which all your questions will be answered. 🙏
@@dannathan5482Hello, My comment is not meant to be derogatory. After listening to Michael for a couple years now, I realized what he is feverishly trying to express to all devotees…Turn Within. This is the only way you can experience the teachings of Sri Ramana. The pertinent question is, will you follow Michael’s lead? 🙏
Pure Awareness in sleep is just a pointer and not reality for your real being is inexpressible in words. Awareness in sleep metaphor is not to be taken literally. Pure awareness cannot be described.
I think we feel sad when our relative dies bz we don't know what we are. It is lack of love we given to died person when he was alive. We can only pray for him. Everbody dies for his best. In spiritual sense nobody dies reborn is certain for ego.
It seems we are more awake in sleep than when we are awake during day. Everything upside down. Waking is sleeping, sleeping, waking? Is pure awareness truly Self or rather no-self? I cannot see how pure awareness could have an "I".
The dream is assumed to be a dream, based on what we call the waking state. We assume the waking state is not a dream. But that does not mean it is a dream. To say that it is a dream is another assumption. Also, upon waking up from sleep, we have a sense that there were parts of sleep when we were not dreaming. But that could just be a residual sense in the bodybrain of the duration of total sleep time as compared to the dream time of sleep. Looking inward at awareness seems to be comprised of flashes of awareness in very recent retrospect. Like a half of a second ago. It's not direct/ immediate awareness of awareness. Although it seems that way.
On the question how to turn within, let me just say that I have found great guidance in the instructions from Michael Langford via his awareness watching awareness instruction. You can find it in book form or UA-cam. Michael James himself has said it could very well benefit many people. It would be great if Michael James could talk about this approach also. I have seen him comment on it in his blog
Can pure awareness be described as the witness and/or pure subjectivity? is pure awareness Atman? Swami atmananda udasin says awareness is the purist foremost expression (modification) of conciousness, Atman is one and the same as Brahman in essence? so there an individual I which is ego then there is the I prior to the individual I (aham aham) the (I-I), pure awareness, then the self- Brahman where there is no more I?
In one of the question, somebody has asked to elaborate or explain on Navratri is nearby preps Shalini & answer Michael James have gotten to earlier part of that question can it be elaborated? Explained the next time?
Pure awareness is after nirvikalpasamadhi when all is one and you see the karma moving in Wax like the riksho ask you to jump on his bike while someone tells you in your back that you have to go here and there while y turn around and do what you have been told realising that y are not breathing and having no heartbeat. Supercouncious stage. After having nirvikalpasamadhi.
@@Iiisgracebestill it's still complicated or let say difficult to detach from believes. I had some sort of idea circling around his answer I just liked, but was unable neither to quest him nor answer. My ego (or not my, i have no ego, right?) is stunned through me but stll survives. "The force is strong with him " :). i can't reply nothing so far. Thanks both for your attention, there's nothing around me i can relay on, only these videos trying to grasp.
@@nikibotev5478 the force, lol, is strong in all & so it arises. We’ve come to believe in this life, where the idea of my ego is I am is in reality existing, Michael’s videos are a way to hear more about arunachala and bhagavan who oneself is already perfect awareness. cx
@johnmcdonald260Thank you! This'll take awhile. ,,Only 1 self" I've missed. And what's than destruction of ego (1!), which obviously will last forever, out of time?
Everything nameless and formless is nothing. The desire, lusting knowledge seeking, intellect, will, mind body i-thought I am, is false knowledge an other, I am exists cx

Infinite Love and compassion is Buddha Nature. Ramana is also A Buddha Purusha.
pure awarenes is not to be aware of live but be live

Longing for love is the reason for all...love contains all...love is all♥️🙏
Yes and awareness will reveal that to us if we are ready to awake

did u mean ,,the most direct path to eternal bliss?
@@nikibotev5478 correct
1:14:22as ego the body is aware of its surroundings and other thing. Identifying I am with the human experience is acknowledging ego’s existence. cx

1 ego many persons. If in my dream someone fall asleep which ego disappears cause there's only 1? I'm confused.
So you've understood the ego then john have you? Youve claimed its not complicated!! cx
Ego is duality and I doesn’t exist. In his dream he see others. When she wakes more people are seen. The I amness is happening only in this dream. cx
