In The Ultimate Prayer There is no Me
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 бер 2024
- A woman asks Rupert if she is praying correctly when, in talking with God, she says, ‘I am a piece of you’, and ‘you are all of me’.
Rupert, assuring her she is correct, elaborates: ‘The two statements are from two different stages of understanding. The first statement, “I am a piece of you”, puts the ego or the separate self in the right relationship with God. In the second statement, “you are all of me”, the ego has dissolved. There is no room in God’s being for two beings, there’s just the all, or the one. The second statement annihilates the ego, leaving only God.
‘The first stage of understanding is beautiful - I am a piece of you or a part of you. But the second stage of understanding is more complete - you are all of me. In other words, I am not a piece or a fragment. But don’t worry about whether the words are accurate or not. It’s not important that our prayers are accurate, just that they are evocative.’

Father, to thee I offer my whole being
A vessel emptied of Self
Accept Lord this my emptiness
And so fill me with thy self. Thy light.
Thy love. Thy light.
Thy life. Thy light.
Thy love.
That these thy precious gifts
May overflow the chalice of my heart
And flow into the hearts
Of all those with whom
I come in contact this day
Revealing unto them
The beauty of thy joy and wholeness
And the serenity of thy peace
Which nothing can destroy
I learn so much from watching your videos, dear Rupert Spira. But mostly they return me straight to heaven. Thank you always ❤❤
The deepest part of you, is the deepest part of me, and in that unity we find our sovereignty.
Only the deepest part?
😊😊😊@@Austination316
Such a beautiful prayer Rupert!
Wow! Thank you! ❤
very nice feeling.
I am a piece of you and you are the whole of me. Wow. So beautiful ❤️
Beautiful and profound explanation from the noble lady in audience and the explanation Rupert - so beautiful 🙏
God is only external in thoughts.
I couldn't have said it any better
Such dearness ❤
So beautiful
So beautiful ❤️
This is Visistadvaita philosophy of Sri Ramanujacharya. Ego is part and God is whole. Ocean and wave analogy.
Anyone know -- what is the source of prayer he says at 4'18"?
Rupert sir I am struggling with a job problem. Please help me get the job. In the past I left one job and in my second job my owner asked me to resign.
4:17. 🙏 5:17
That‘s it❤
That is a beautiful prayer that lady came up with. I love it
In the greater the lesser is, in the lesser the greater is not.
🙏🙏🙏
Hey guys at first when I would ask the question “am I aware” my mind activity would stop immediately.. but now it’s literally ineffective.. can someone tell me what’s happening? Saying “I am” seems to work way better than
In my experience, words and pointers work for a while, it can take a new option to bring you back to presence. Whatever works, works ⚪
Acredito que faz parte do próprio processo. O que funciona melhor em cada momento pode variar...
You wore it out 😅 try a new one, i am only ever aware of my own consciousness. Then look around and behold ❤

Good day. Perhaps she is indicating the going on after annihilation. The return to creation with its language of duality. 'I witness separation on the rug of gartheredness' and 'separation exist on the lounge while gartheredness is the reality of the heart' said the masters.
*separation exist on the tounge*
Lay it off. Language is language, it is always poor translation. Just use your own words, that’s what he did. No more child play. If you want Reality, be real in your Humanhood. Words of duality are inevitable because you see dual everywhere. You see polarity everywhere, there are opposites. What do we know about opposites? I know nothing, why do you think you do? Ask God what opposites are. God is the I AM you don’t know. He will reveal Himself to you personally. Ask for God
A Me? that is part of this game / experience. The illusion of SELF. The Universe pretending to be SEPARATE from itself. There was never a you / self.
The wave is in fact the ocean.
You need a psychologist.
Does anyone know his full prayer at the end? It’s so beautiful….
🙏♾
First we pray to God as an idea. But then, when our ego gets hurt and doesn’t get its way, the childish ideas in our heads start to break down and we realize that God is the Reality of our Life, not an idea anymore. From that point on we stop believing because we _know_ God is. We have matured, we have become adults. There is no need to defend childish ideas anymore, we have become rooted in the Reality that is God.
For me When she says “I am a piece of you” in some way inadvertently is denying hers infinite nature
Rupert said this is the highest way the ego can say...
Not really, because you as the whole is who she is. It's sort of a palindrome. It's cute, beautiful
I am you and you are me, bits pieces and whole, one and the same thing
Infinite Nature doesn’t correct others. Infinite Nature loves and holds everyone together: we do not decide who is welcome or not. God holds all, including that which we define as all. Our I AM is nothing without His. Die in your sins, they are nothing because God loves you. Sin means forgetting He loves your personhood enough to bestow you all the awareness you seek.
"Don't focus on the correctness of the words."
Mr. Rupert really deals with the theological language people immersed in the language of the three Abrahamic religious traditions use so very well.

Do many people here pray daily?
Yes. I've been starting out the day, first thing with the serenity prayer & gratitude.
No. Prayer is a way of living.
I'm begining to do It again. And it's wonderful when I do it. It wakes me to 'I am'.
Yes. Always. Prayer is more effective than all of he jargon from these teachers. Ask the Source of Prayer to help you see what Consciousness is and you will find Peace. What you need is Something that is greater than you that knows the way. Help is always available. Come Home to your Being and ask for the Being who gave your Being. God that is.
Yes, silent prayer, I don't ask for anything, don't think or say anything, just abide in my true nature in silence.
Guys,anyone can help me of who is this "me"?
Rupert , bless me to wake up to BEING
🌠Yes , There Are NO t o w , Only One lnfinite Being lS 🤍 Thank Y🪷u for sharing🦋Rupert🙏
She’s a dear one seeking approval, but we can all learn from the ego
Ego is better than selling your personhood to someone who wants your money.
But what is that piece. That has not been explained by the teacher ie how did that piece derive. Clearly it must have derived as some kind of physical form due to there is an ego operating from it and that piece has a high relationship with a God which also has not been explained how a God derived.
I mean here is proof that the ego is just a send and receive message tool and not a self importance thing, a thing that teachers cannot explain what that thing is that is supposed to be detrimental.
That physical source within that formed to form the intelligent species will always remain seperate to you because that physical source was formed, not born.
Well the teacher got out of that one just by saying " stick with your prayer".
I mean, even Jesus knew there is no God because Jesus said, " I and the father are one". Hello!
There are many thinkers, yet There is only one doer.
No, there are many doers who do not listen to the Doer.
"It's not important that our prayers are accurate, it's important that they are evocative" ~ Rupert Spira 4:08
Rupert looks so badass with the beard 😆
I agree 😊😅❤
There are two. There is the Father above all in Heaven and the Child on Earth. You are a child until you see Father. Then you are Child. Father speaks. Father teaches. Be numb to these teachings of non-duality. They are destroying your Personhood. Come Home to the I AM naked and ask it to kill your I AM, because it is a concept. I AM that I AM is greater than individual awareness. Let go into God’s Grace and He will make your Humanhood shine.
Check out the woman giving Rupert the Benediction sign at the end 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Unbiblical
Things flow through us unconsciously…actually very consciously if the term is used correctly. He got the message. There are many messages coming to Rupert through women these days! The women take over when the Jnani is finally ready to go to sleep…
I'm sorry but it's just silly to call it prayer if you end in non-dualism and you are confusing the issues
Why shouldn't prayer end in non-duality?
@@craperhoe it should end in non duality but before that one is praying to oneself.
Prayer is always to that which is greater than You.
