About my videos: These videos are a resource for anyone wishing to wake up from the dream of separation. Awakening, enlightenment, and liberation are becoming far more mainstream possibilities than they once were. There are many good teachers out there, and if you resonate with the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Rupert Spira, or Sadhguru, you might find resources here that address these deeper promptings to investigate your true nature.
Disclaimer: The information presented in these videos is not meant to diagnose or treat any psychiatric or medical illness. The inquiries presented herein are potent and can have powerful effects on the way you experience yourself and reality. If you feel you are at risk of harming yourself or others, these videos and practices may not be the best thing for you at the moment. Seek help wherever necessary which might include a hospital emergency department, a suicide helpline etc.
What stood in the way of my awakening finally dissolved in a situation where pure Being was the only thing to do. A week ago I sat beside the bed of my son in ICU. I found myself in situation that would be the nightmare of all mothers, but suddenly my usual identification with fear and doubt was nowhere to be found. I witnessed terrible suffering, yet I embodied huge clarity, presence and goodness. Strangely it was all just right.. I didn‘t recognize myself as the usual neurotic me. I was happy to be exactly where I needed. The environment was noisy and restless. I sat and watched my visual field go zero distance and hologram-like, all abstract. I‘d had these moments in meditation previously, but this continued for hours. Later, after being admitted home and recovering, my son commented on the energy of safety that was transmitted from me. This feeling of goodness has stayed, although Il get triggered by some stuff. A little intimidating experience is the zero distance that I can‘t unsee anymore. The glimpses of non dual were entertaining while meditation, but this isn‘t. Everything is falling to my face and I can‘t keep it at distance anymore. Nothing seems solid, rather boiling with energies. I expect I‘ll get used to this. Hope I get chance to talk to you soon Angelo!!
Beautiful, thanks for sharing

Profound times.
Wishing you both the very best.

How does that song go? “It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem; it’s me.”
Without realization, is shadow work endless?
My 44 yr old younger brother is has been admitted to the hospital. He has a hard time throughout his life and now his liver is failing him. He has jaundice, fluid in his lungs and stomach. Currently getting a blood transfusion, platelets etc. I want to drive down during and be with him. All he knows is his ego delusions. He’s told himself this whole time that he is healthy and unstoppable and will never quit drinking. Now close to the end I see he is so afraid. I want him to know that he’s not his story. That he’s not a failure and that it’s not his fault. I want him to Remember and to be able to let go of the painful story. Any advice on how to be with him? Thank you all and I Love you all
First of all ❤ to all of you. Second of all, you can’t make him see. We’ve all been there. There’s so much suffering but you can’t force someone to see the illusion of it all. Your brother is as infinite as you are. Just be there for him. Let your calm and loving prescence alone shine on him. In each moment you’ll know how to love him best. He is you. All stories are you. We’re all right here, now.
It sounds like his life has been structured around distracting himself from something that was too painful for him to deal with. I would approach with compassion to this wound in him and be available to him if there is anything he wants to share. As you indicate, helping to alleviate any sense of guilt, responsibility or shame, would be a gift to him. If you see through the self illusion in him and the self illusion in you, you can't make a wrong move. Trust and do as you are moved to do. God wishes to both of you.
You just did 🙏🏽🥹
Your presence 😢
Just being present, listening and loving him. If possible let go of doing or saying anything and notice any desire to change or fix whatever is happening. Unconditional Love is the greatest gift possible.
I get how difficult it is loving someone and watching them not love themselves. Please take care of yourself with tenderness and kindness now.🙏💖🤗
I recently realized that often, before thinking about something happening starts, there is a direct insight, we know what's its about, but we feel the need to reason about it. Now I don't need to think! Yes, I still think... 🤔 But it's not needed, and this is seen. 🤯
Thank you Angelo, right on time!!
Thank you 🙏 friend
what is the different between a reaction and a natural response to a situation? when to know to look into and process an emotion?
i love the attorney/client thing!!! that’s how i describe it too❤❤❤
it’s very very helpful Angelo.
Thank you so much 🙏❤️
Can you make a video about polarization/being polarized in the moment
Resistance 😌🙏💚
Insight and exploration, sure. But how about habits? Or as some might call them condition/karma?
my dear Angelo, is there a shortcut to awakening? Please... 🙏
not only does there not seem to be a shortcut, but even a longcut seems impossible!
❤

I have listened to all your videos with ZDogg and while it was interesting, I get a sense of nauseating heaviness about the process of awakening from you which I don’t like.. I prefer say David Bingham or BeSomethingWonderful.. as it’s less with the assumption, “this is / is going to be complicated and hard”.. a much lighter vibe
Different approaches work for different people
Lol that is so true. 2 minutes of listening to Angelo and I knew this is the guy, the pointer. Then- oh crap!! 😭@@SimplyAlwaysAwake

The only thing standing between awakening and me is me. (With apologies to Woody Allen.)
I cant say I had an awakening like Angelo describe it in his videos and book… but everytime he’s talking about shadow work, it feels like this is what I do everyday : my body is purging false beliefs, repressed emotions and so on. Of course, I get insights that come along with this, but not THE big one, that come along with the « honeymoon ». Is this happening to other too? Feeling like doing the work that is « supposed » to come after the initial awakening?
Yes exactly! I started on this path because I had an awakening. Then I had a one-month honeymoon and almost 5 years later I just recently started to feel that it's coming full circle. And the more I feel and see how my false sense of self was illusory, the more uncomfortable it gets when it comes back, so the more I am enticed to let go. 😊
I‘ve also done shadow work for years and it seemed endless. Yes. this is part of the awakening process and the path for many. But now as I‘ve experienced awakening I‘d say that the crucial factor is the identity shift. I used to identify with the pain body, trauma and suffering that was constantly there. Probably the shadow work will continue but it‘s different as the identity shifts. Have you had a major shift in identity?
I don't think I have. So many times, I thought I had a big shift, and I did have very significant insights, but when I got the next one, I realized the "shift" I had before wasn't that big 😂 but they are all so important and valuable.
@@RiikkaVuorijarvi-ni4rp Thaanks for this answer :) No, I did not have a major shift, nothing that is clear and undeniable. But I really love that you say that "It seemed endless". That's the same I feel... I get insights, and since 2-3 months, insights are almost coming everyday. It's deeper and deeper... but it seem right now that's there is no end to it haha ! I guess i"m just impatient... my ego wanna get rid of himself the fastest possible 🤣
@@Buddhishgirl Exactly !! Hey... I've just seen your name on a notification by email! Are you from Quebec too?
Do you think drifting towards thought is the same thing as drifting towards external validation?
💛
A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client.
It makes me think of the madness of all this. And the non-inevitability of every step of realizing awakening. I think now it is much more clear to me that it's completely possible to have an identity shift out of the typical persistent-stable-self perception, and to simultaneously really hate oneself.
Of course this sounds impossible in a sense, but what's become clear is that those two things are sorta in different layers... To have some underlying habits, beliefs and self-conceptions that are inherently destructive and self-limiting. Thus the value of shadow work.
I'm grateful in a sense that I get to keep going and developing, but that some of my friends, two of them in medical school, for example, died by suicide. For them, there is no road out.
❤️
Can you please speak more about how they fit together?
The hero's journey indeed. :)
Canada - 2:22AM We live as kids when we are kids and when we are old. In between we try to control when what we need to do is master the craft and relinquish the results by abandoning oneself to divinity by transcending the perception of our imagined limits
The problem is you just don't know. You don't know what places you're holding on, where, and even you don't know how to let go. But that's the thing, you'll never know. It's just a constant reiteration of realizing what has always been. And that these habits and pattern and suffering are just based upon a false belief of being a separate individual.
Thanks Angelo. I have a date with the divine later tonight. Hope you're doing well.
Ugh, this makes it all sound so difficult.
It’s not difficult. Here’s the koan:
What is the most simple thing in your experience right now?
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Breathing. I don't even have to think about that.
Now what?
@@sistergroup5368 but what is breathing?
