This young man is SO refreshing. So much of the New Age teaching creates anxiety in the individual as to whether one has "transcended"....or not...rather than simply accepting that as "Love", we are in need of nothing when it comes to being something "more" than who we truly already are. Thank you Jeff Foster
A lot of new age teaching is very deluded and full of its own sense of self importance. What concerns me is the younger generation who are drawn in by it, and end up with the impression that the only way to deal with reality is to escape it and indulge in tales of “ascension”, “starseeds”, “indigo children” etc.
So many spiritual teachers label everything concerning our human nature as "negative", as well as "not true, not real, illusory"... basically your being mad, angry, jelous, as well as euphoric or in love is labeled as NEGATIVE emotions, whereas only what concerns the Soul, our Real Self, can be called TRUE and POSITIVE. This is extremely sad and descouraging. If this is so, you can't help but refuse your human nature and living in a constant state of repression, denial and frustration for everything you feel, think and do. Also, you fall into the lie that only Awakening, Enlightment will give you a Real, Positive and worth-living existence, so you refuse your existence as it is even more and just keep feeding your frustration and denial of your life. And the worst part is that it is really hard to get free from this kind of conditionings, because people often feel lost and put all their trust into these spiritual teachers that they consider a guidance, an authority.
I always feel better listening to you speak because I get to see the resistance I was in toward my experience that I wasn’t aware of. I like to gently hold my body with my hands, while breathing into my sensations without an agenda of trying to do anything about them. There’s a spaciousness that arises from within. I come out of a thinking experience and enter into a FEELING experience. When my mind is loud, deep slow breathing with my hands on my center brings me into my body sensations. Naturally, I start to feel a caring energy for myself.
Thank you truly Jeff, this video made me cry. A few years ago I watched your video about acceptance and realized that I'd been actually resisting, thinking I was doing my spiritual practice. And today I realize that I don't need to let go of(secretly trying to get rid of) my uncomfortable sensations. They are allowed already and true love, the open space has never ever left. Home is already here. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul !
Dude thank you so much- i don't know if you even read these but after years of searching your message has finally halted that inner incessant desire to be/do/become "more" i don't need to read those 74 books in my queue to "get it" - i don't even know how to correctly articulate this - I've just found peace - even if just for this moment - it's a peace that's eluded me for years - thanks man.
I think in this community, as well as the neuroscience community, mind refers to consciousness. Not to say that the brain does primarily unconscious work; but also mindful, conscious processes that incline us to refer to ourselves as 'I' and make a distinction between our bodies and our mind.
Finally someone told it as it truly is!I cant even talk to most of my "spuritual"friends about true feelings,even more if they are "low"..they dont want to be around someone with sad feelings cos maybe they will get affected by them😛..if "theyre"so enlighten why run away from them😇much love💞
Johnny Little You may want to look at Access Consciousness with Dr Dain Heer and Gary Douglas Life changer really endorses and accompanys what Jeffs saying
Yep there's a lot of misguided information in spiritual development that doesn't liberate only enslaves us into someone else beliefs conclusions and fixed points of view however seemingly spiritual The Cosmic joke is Everything is Spirit
That's for Sure it's exhausting I bought into the concept of "working on yourself"in a sincere desire for freedom only to be struck in a prison of depression God Oh to have had Jeffs awareness and deep insights. aah all is well don't need to wind myself up with So Much stuff LOL
so simple. thankyou Jeff. as a spiritual seeker for the past 20 years and still feeling stuck... I'm now... from this moment.. starting over again fresh and new. xo
With each moment we are all starting over fresh and new. Geoff keeps 'it' simple, the Way it should be. I'll let this presentation soak in. Blessings to all.
I am really with you on this, when you got stuck with something that you thought would be gone, and then see this video and realise how the mind make this awakening so complicated, and if I resist the feeling and I am angry it's because I didn't get IT right.
Very grateful to you for presenting this in such an accessible way friend Jeff. I work with many broken souls suffering from addiction who are stuck in self-imposed guilt and shame of the past and fear of the future. I do my best to present to them that feelings are something we have and not who we are - that attachment is the cause of our suffering. The analogy of ocean waves is one that presented to me along the way but even that seems somewhat finite. The analogy of thoughts and feelings as clouds isn't new to me either, however, experiencing ourselves as the sky into which the clouds exist never occurred to me and I feel it much more accurately describes the vastness of Self. Thank you for this gem and be assured that it will serve to comfort many souls. God Bless.
What about sub-conscious things? For example, I recently had reflexology that caused something called a ‘healing crisis’... my body was purging itself and clearing itself of both physical and mental toxins stored that I had absolutely no idea about... these things had a negative label and stance automatically, according to my body/being without my mind labelling or being involved in any way, and unconsciously in a process of transmutation from the ‘bad’ to the ‘good’. So, as much as lies in the self-wills ability, we should aim for the obviously good. But we also shouldn’t judge or self-victimise the experience of the bad if it arises in our circumstance but learn and grow (which is mostly the reason for earth life experience). For we’re here in this experience of duality to experience this particular dualistic experience. Non-judgement is wonderful but I’ll always strive to bring heaven to earth if possible and destined.
Dear Jeff. Thank you for this video. The essence came at the end. "It doesn't mean that there is something wrong with you". Unluckily I grew up with a Dad that always blamed everyone else for his feelings. He also doomed everybody wrong whenever you thought or felt differently to him. So I became really good at hiding feelings, burying dreams and so on. This all lead to a major breakdown. I can no longer run from whats going on inside be just to please my Dad. But it's work, cause that feeling of "Something is wrong with Me" tends to be everywhere and often times goes unnoticed. Takes a lot of patience to dig through alll of it, a lot of understanding and a lot of just sitting and being with the whole chaos :-). Thank you for your words cuz not many people seem to be able to understand this. It's like the whole world is running from themselves.
360Clouds Hi, I just wanted to say that I feel your experience, and your words, and I love what you said, that it takes patience to sit and be with the chaos. That is so accurate. Sometimes it feels like it's all I can 'do ' and other times I worry 'life' is passing me by.
Very positive message! Thank you... spot on! You really explain things in a way I've never heard before. It definitely helped me to mellow out. I love how you broke down meditation into being something courageous. It is bravery to take on one's mind and what I try to hide from myself, which is why I get tired as opposed to looking deeper within... what am I so afraid of? Raw sensation in the body!!!! Lovely... true freedom is not a destination, it's our true nature! I just love this! AmaZzzing...
I can attest to this from personal experience, from both sides of the imaginary fence. I woke up only to be dragged back by my ego six months later. The intense anxiety i experienced became intense excitement and joy when i woke up. The sensation was identical, but my perception of it being pain had gone. Unfortunately this switched back literally overnight. Life became a living hell.
Relieved .I've been struggling with LOA concept and blaming myself for..well everything. Shaming seems to be prevalent in society, education and religion.i just want to say fuck it.I don't care.. I've battled long enough trying to be other than what's here.Ive felt a while now that positive and negative labels are different words for good and bad. Thank you.
People Are Crazy Now apply the LOA with just feeling and not labeling anything. Your struggling iz over. LOA will always match your vibe. If you just feel without labeling you’ll soon see how enjoyable all experiences of life become. This iz exactly what we all came here for even the less than pleasant things, in fact especially that iz what we came to experience because we are limitless, and those are not limitations they are just potentials. Don’t worry about manifesting just be alive, the universe already knows what you want. Just be, think, do, what feels good. Just feel your way through without resisting anything that feels less than good. Feel that too then once it’s done it will leave. The feelings just want to exist, they want to be, they already exist so trying to push up against them does nothing but make them hang around until they are accepted. You created them, they are your children, so love them and nourish them and let them be. When it’s time for them to fly the nest they will. Know that everything works out for you. How do you know? You’re still alive right? You still exist? Then everything has always worked out for you.
I let myself feel all feelings but I noticed if I don't bring love and light to my heart and body in meditation I feel heavy all the time. Love and light lifts me high. Now I am just thinking my crist mind and let my feelings and thoughts just come and go. Only observing them so they don't create feelings so much. Maybe my course of miracles studies show true but I really try to undertand Jeff teachings cause I love them.
prayer as I watch this video: - to awaken more deeply - to be continuously given insights and downloads that help and assist me - to unite and be with my twin-flame/soul-mate/true-love - to successfully thrive off my passions and talents - for a tribe of real friends - to be permanently healed on every level and in every way...
Yes but the sensation comes from the thinking about things no matter whether we label it as negative or positive. There is also some empirical evidence that negative energy is a 'slower' vibration.
I just absolutely LOVE this. There is nothing more true. And the new age theories like loa frustrates me because if you feel realy deeply for yourself, you just cant get around the fact that its not true. These are my thoughts. Could not've said it better!!!! The only thing i still also Wanted to mention or ask...if you' ve had a painfull past...(wich is very difficult not to label because it is painfull, you feel it without words) it is true that these raw energies are telling you something about yourself....they teach you something. However trying to find out what, will not help you....only trough being it is that god speaks, or the i am or the universe, and thing fall into place. But thats very very hard when youre suffering from a deep and intens anxiety and ocd disorder. ( i know ....labels again) but just so you understand what im talking about. Wondering how you see this jeff? Thanks again 🙏🌺 love your energie.
Nothing to worry about regarding frequencies of energy. We are all being guided and activated in relationship to our own level of readiness to what we can and want to learn. Sometimes its good to vibe low, sometimes its good to vibe high. Its all perfect.
Hello Jeff, the point is that emotions create sensational waves that awareness experiences. It could be your own emotion or someone else's. Until sensational-awareness is strong to identify how and why it senses, ( not by the mind, but just knowing) nothing else is left but to surrender, this is not the way. Stronger awareness grows that is evolutionary, harmonizes emotion with sensation and experience peace of sensation that is love of enlightenment. In other words, power of awareness pacifies waves by holding active force of emotion and experiences true love, but weaker sensational-awareness is wilder waves, they do not move by themselves.
Oh God this is so liberating Oh Boy I wish I'd known this 25 years ago as,I've taken on board a whole bunch of stuff that took me on a journey and often going around in circles Likewise myself and others sincerely looking and dedicating ourselves to our specific paths.The more I listen to this man the more I see and perceive more freedom and liberation. Yes the mind is very powerful and can often lead us on a merry dance.But truly Being..now that's another level
The problem with us that we are always in the resistance mood, we are always judging, rejecting and denying these feelings when actually like you said, allow and accept 100% the feeling without judgment then we will experienced huge vastness inside us capable of holding any feeling.
Fear hate sadness happiness are the basis of all human emotions anything outside of that is something outside of ourselves. But you know what i want to be an amateur and connect to my body because i am so disconnected. No more psychiatry for me! Yassss...i struggle. God do i struggle.
it's amazing how we still impute the brain as being the maker of the human experience. the brain it's just an organ with some electromagnetic activity. you tell me where are the images or sound..!! Amazing ..SOMETHING else is doing it all through the brain..it 's been always under your nose ..what you are..WOW ..and so intimate..
All thought is just abstracts. Stories. The idea of God, a world, life, humanity, love, hate, good, evil, others, society. Raw sensation is an organic feeling. Children have it.
Thank you for this so beautiful totally resonating with this. Yes accept everything but what about when cortisol levels are high or when the adrenaline is pumping? Our body is telling us something & surely it's not a way to live running around in that state like most people are currently living..I would love to hear your view on this thank you.
Being manipulated is negative. Therefore that is a negative feeling that is imposed by someone else, just as being degraded or belittled is. While positivity can be found in knowing that someone is showing their true colors, that change life in ways where evolution and groth are perceived along a planned timeline of progression. This causes the circumstance of abandonment on many levels leaving efforts and feelings of trust to be placed as harmful pressures that create auctions within the body and world of those being manipulated and degraded. This affects the conscious mind in a negative way that promotes an unwanted and forced feeling of change for life and Circumstance. While these are feelings none the less, they do exist in a negative form because of the pain and toxin that is created. While this does not have to apply to the circumstance of 'forever', it places the pressure of Burden on the one that is on the receiving end of the manipulation degradation and essentially lie. That's like acid rain. Hail would be different. This changes the course of expectation based on weakness and failure of commitment by another. Whether that commitment is spoken or agreed-upon, does not matter once a perception is shared and Enlightenment is found through it initially. So there is an unnatural dysfunction that occurs naturally for one party and causes the toxin in the other party. Not everybody is into masochism, sorry.
Jeff I can't help but try and think about how your teachings can be psychologically explained. While I know that it need not be done for the sake of life, but I feel it gives more context and the mind something to chew on. As far as I can articulate, it seems that yours teachings are permission giving. That is, your messages give the mind permission to feel as it feels and see as it sees, reducing the associated judgement with that moment of feeling or seeing. This seems to be a subconscious 'transformation' or neurological change. I realise the articulation is not needed for the 'shift' but I like trying to mesh modern psychological/neuroscience explanations with 'spiritual' ones. I see a lot of misunderstandings between them where I think it could be articulated much better . Would love your take on this, I.e. Is it possible to explain your message psychologically?
I understand what Jeff is saying here but aren’t the emotions/raw energy that appear in our bodies due to what the mind is telling us about a certain person/situation? Yes it’s ok to feel anxiety but isn’t it only there due to what we’re ‘thinking’ about a certain situation?? Would love to hear any thoughts on this 🙏
Francis Bennett talks like this "there is place in your heart already allowing that what is. Go and find that place in you." I've found that advice very effective.
We label and identify with not only "low vibrational" feels, but also feelings of contractions and expansions. Struggling with contraction only reinforces and maintains the feeling of contraction - which would normally pass quickly. Identifying with it - i.e. it is me that is contracted - then reinforces another fiction - a “me”. Then struggling with it maintains a “me” who struggles. And around and around it goes. www.engagednonduality.com/i-struggle-with-feeling-contracted-wonder-if-there-is-something-there-to-unravel/
He's not saying LOA isn't real, and no LOA teaching I've come across has said that what you want to attract will allow you to arrive at this destination that is free from concern and problems. He's saying not to shame where you are, which is consistent with a lot of LOA teachers I've come across. What's different is the labeling and I agree with that. Every label from "bird" to "negative" to "couch" etc is a useless label that doesn't do a good job representing what the truth of that collection of energy is if you remove a subjective oberver. He's urging you to understand where you are, embrace where you are, and from my experience these energies are able to pass. To me, this is the best method to allow yourself to pass energies that we would label as "high vibration" or energies that are consistent with attracting certain things. You always must honor and embrace exactly where you are.
The response of the mind which labels and judges the sensations is automatic. Then how can a human be free from the judgements that the mind creates? What needs to be done voluntarily?
I get what you mean but these 'raw sensations' matter... They live marks in your emotional body. It's not because we decide that pain is not negative that it stops hurting. Stress for ex is proven to cause physical health issues. So, in that sense, some sensations or emotions are more negative than others, assuming we want to remain alive and healthy.
I always thought that thoughts trigger emotions. In a way that "emotions appear when body reacts to certain thoughts" which we then judge and try to run away from. Would the body produce chemicals for "negative" emotion if the mind was fine with situation? Probably not or? I mean unless you count the conditioning of the body, then it makes sense. Am I wrong to think that? Or were you trying to make a distiction between emotions and feelings?
Great question. I feel that thoughts do create emotions however our response to the emotions shifts the energy about it. We can observe the thoughts and emotions without attaching it to an identity...attaching it to the of story 'this is who I am!' And hold every thought and emotion with kindness or compassion instead meeting it with resistance of this need to change, be fixed, be healed to simply allowing it to be what it is...energy flowing on the present moment🙏❤🙏
Actually in absolute level, it’s true there is no good or bad, neither neutral. But it is okey to see things in a concept, relative concept to go begond concept. Karma is relative concept coz it teaches us about good and bad. But we can use this concept to go beyond. So does not mean all the wisdom being thought is not important. But at the end, everything is comes from the mind including all the teaching, do not let imprison in the concept.
Its wierd that when i feel some sensation in my body i feel like i have to label it as tension or something else /i suppose really its just energy till we put a name to it .great vid thanks
Thank you Jeff, i love what i heard from your video. But before the mind label sensations, is there an awareness of it ? I mean, for example, if i'm in the midst of a car accident, there is an intelligence other than the mind, (the mind is completely shut) and there is something else who will guide me between through the bad and the good of this fatal situation, preventing me of any harmful decisions. If i feel sadness in myself, without labeling it, i can't talk about happiness while living it. So without labeling good or bad, high or low, there is sensations who are anything except being comfortable to live for example ?
This young man is SO refreshing. So much of the New Age teaching creates anxiety in the individual as to whether one has "transcended"....or not...rather than simply accepting that as "Love", we are in need of nothing when it comes to being something "more" than who we truly already are. Thank you Jeff Foster

Yes, the FLAW of attraction has done a lot of damage causing spiritual by pass or self blame for not feeling happy & positive all the time.
I’ve always known this yet I never trusted it for my self. Thank you for echoing my conscience who I ignored for 43 years.
Thank you truly Jeff, this video made me cry. A few years ago I watched your video about acceptance and realized that I'd been actually resisting, thinking I was doing my spiritual practice.

"the mind is always looking for an enemy" so true
AXharoth assuming there is a mind...
I think in this community, as well as the neuroscience community, mind refers to consciousness. Not to say that the brain does primarily unconscious work; but also mindful, conscious processes that incline us to refer to ourselves as 'I' and make a distinction between our bodies and our mind.
This is quite possibly the most beautiful, elegant way to describe this awareness. Thank you for another great video.
Finally someone told it as it truly is!I cant even talk to most of my "spuritual"friends about true feelings,even more if they are "low"..they dont want to be around someone with sad feelings cos maybe they will get affected by them😛..if "theyre"so enlighten why run away from them😇much love💞
So glad you did a video on this Jeff. Long time in waiting because as you know the spiritual world is loaded w/this good/bad paradigm.

so simple. thankyou Jeff. as a spiritual seeker for the past 20 years and still feeling stuck... I'm now... from this moment.. starting over again fresh and new. xo
With each moment we are all starting over fresh and new. Geoff keeps 'it' simple, the Way it should be. I'll let this presentation soak in. Blessings to all.
hi jenny, one recommendation for you, conversation with god book 1,2 and 3 , read it only if it comes from within
Why are you a spiritual seeker?
I am really with you on this, when you got stuck with something that you thought would be gone, and then see this video and realise how the mind make this awakening so complicated, and if I resist the feeling and I am angry it's because I didn't get IT right.
Very grateful to you for presenting this in such an accessible way friend Jeff.

I find your teachings so freeing - I can feel more freedom as I listen to you - thank you :)
Thank you for sharing your perspective. Feels good in the body
All my spiritual seeking put me back there where I started. Funny..,

Tidings of Comfort & Joy...this is the Good News ! Thanks, Jeff!
Great greater one of the Greatest perspective... . That was actually very very inclusive way of thinking.. the most inclusive one I've ever heard 🔥🔥
Yes. Absolutely true. These "feelings" are valid. They are speaking to us of some truth or another.
"ALL feelings are valid" at 14:07
Thank you for sharing
Epic video Jeff. Please continue sharing your essence through videos!
This resonates so deeply. Thank you Jeff
Thank you Jeff, wonderful words as always. A happy Christmas to you

Thank you so much for your output. Truly grateful
True ,all is true,the mind comes in the way
I’ve been where you have been and thank you for letting me know that I am not alone 🌺
Love you Jeff. True words coming from you❤❤ It is saving me
Thank you Jeff I love you unconditionally
You're so wise n intelligent... Cool job dude.. really love your wisdom.. u liberate me
Hello Jeff, the point is that emotions create sensational waves that awareness experiences. It could be your own emotion or someone else's. Until sensational-awareness is strong to identify how and why it senses, ( not by the mind, but just knowing) nothing else is left but to surrender, this is not the way. Stronger awareness grows that is evolutionary, harmonizes emotion with sensation and experience peace of sensation that is love of enlightenment. In other words, power of awareness pacifies waves by holding active force of emotion and experiences true love, but weaker sensational-awareness is wilder waves, they do not move by themselves.
Oh God this is so liberating Oh Boy I wish I'd known this 25 years ago as,I've taken on board a whole bunch of stuff that took me on a journey and often going around in circles Likewise myself and others sincerely looking and dedicating ourselves to our specific paths.The more I listen to this man the more I see and perceive more freedom and liberation. Yes the mind is very powerful and can often lead us on a merry dance.But truly Being..now that's another level
I totally agree with you Jeff. What a wonderfully fresh way to look at our emotions. Making anything into an enemy paradoxically strengthens it!
The problem with us that we are always in the resistance mood, we are always judging, rejecting and denying these feelings when actually like you said, allow and accept 100% the feeling without judgment then we will experienced huge vastness inside us capable of holding any feeling.
Love you Jeff! This is so freeing! Haha, even hilarious!
Jeff thank you so much you are great!!!
Thanks GOD for this guy!!! Thank you Jeff
Thank you Jeff, it's hard for me not to see you as a very important perssone in my life. a master ? Paradox :-)
as always on the point
Fear hate sadness happiness are the basis of all human emotions anything outside of that is something outside of ourselves. But you know what i want to be an amateur and connect to my body because i am so disconnected. No more psychiatry for me! Yassss...i struggle. God do i struggle.
Why can't I meet a man like you, Jeff (in real life)!? Thanks for your amazing help.
Thank you for this video...it has touched me. 🌺❤️🦋
it's amazing how we still impute the brain as being the maker of the human experience. the brain it's just an organ with some electromagnetic activity. you tell me where are the images or sound..!! Amazing ..SOMETHING else is doing it all through the brain..it 's been always under your nose ..what you are..WOW ..and so intimate..
All thought is just abstracts. Stories. The idea of God, a world, life, humanity, love, hate, good, evil, others, society.
Raw sensation is an organic feeling. Children have it.
A truly inspirational video.
Cool Video....The real meaning of being cool
Excellent. Simple Truth
Thank you for this so beautiful totally resonating with this. Yes accept everything but what about when cortisol levels are high or when the adrenaline is pumping? Our body is telling us something & surely it's not a way to live running around in that state like most people are currently living..I would love to hear your view on this thank you.
I'm feeling positive because I share my birthday with you 😁
so much enlightment TY
Its hard when your anger/temper has taken you to scary places
Beautiful 🙏🏽
How do you “know” energy comes into the body? How do you know it comes first before the mind?
Being manipulated is negative.
Therefore that is a negative feeling that is imposed by someone else, just as being degraded or belittled is.
While positivity can be found in knowing that someone is showing their true colors, that change life in ways where evolution and groth are perceived along a planned timeline of progression.
This causes the circumstance of abandonment on many levels leaving efforts and feelings of trust to be placed as harmful pressures that create auctions within the body and world of those being manipulated and degraded.
This affects the conscious mind in a negative way that promotes an unwanted and forced feeling of change for life and Circumstance.
While these are feelings none the less, they do exist in a negative form because of the pain and toxin that is created.
While this does not have to apply to the circumstance of 'forever', it places the pressure of Burden on the one that is on the receiving end of the manipulation degradation and essentially lie.
That's like acid rain.
Hail would be different.
This changes the course of expectation based on weakness and failure of commitment by another.
Whether that commitment is spoken or agreed-upon, does not matter once a perception is shared and Enlightenment is found through it initially.
So there is an unnatural dysfunction that occurs naturally for one party and causes the toxin in the other party.
Not everybody is into masochism, sorry.
Beautiful ❤️. Thank you
Great stuff. Thanks!
A feeling is ENERGY
Nailed 'it' Geoff.
Thank you, Jeff. Beautifully put :-)
AT LAST!!! I am so sick of people promoting concepts that just end up making people feel worse
Thank you so much for this ❤️❤️
Jeff I can't help but try and think about how your teachings can be psychologically explained. While I know that it need not be done for the sake of life, but I feel it gives more context and the mind something to chew on. As far as I can articulate, it seems that yours teachings are permission giving. That is, your messages give the mind permission to feel as it feels and see as it sees, reducing the associated judgement with that moment of feeling or seeing. This seems to be a subconscious 'transformation' or neurological change. I realise the articulation is not needed for the 'shift' but I like trying to mesh modern psychological/neuroscience explanations with 'spiritual' ones. I see a lot of misunderstandings between them where I think it could be articulated much better . Would love your take on this, I.e. Is it possible to explain your message psychologically?
Bless him....so helpful compared to the New Age nonsense of avoiding LOW-FREQUENCY emotions...so much ignorance sold for wisdom.
Are there some audio podcasts of Jeff anyone know of?Id like to hear him while Riding to work..Alan Watts has been a blessing too.
Exactly my Dear Jeff
I understand what Jeff is saying here but aren’t the emotions/raw energy that appear in our bodies due to what the mind is telling us about a certain person/situation? Yes it’s ok to feel anxiety but isn’t it only there due to what we’re ‘thinking’ about a certain situation?? Would love to hear any thoughts on this 🙏
Thank you Jeff!!
A child is free...I’m growing up to be a child again! 😃😇🌅🏞 Thanks!
"Raw sensations" at 6:47

Be as God created you free in your essence and spirit
I think Yoga is good for body sensations without labelling the feeling and sensations
Francis Bennett talks like this "there is place in your heart already allowing that what is. Go and find that place in you." I've found that advice very effective.
We label and identify with not only "low vibrational" feels, but also feelings of contractions and expansions. Struggling with contraction only reinforces and maintains the feeling of contraction - which would normally pass quickly. Identifying with it - i.e. it is me that is contracted - then reinforces another fiction - a “me”. Then struggling with it maintains a “me” who struggles. And around and around it goes. www.engagednonduality.com/i-struggle-with-feeling-contracted-wonder-if-there-is-something-there-to-unravel/
He's not saying LOA isn't real, and no LOA teaching I've come across has said that what you want to attract will allow you to arrive at this destination that is free from concern and problems. He's saying not to shame where you are, which is consistent with a lot of LOA teachers I've come across. What's different is the labeling and I agree with that. Every label from "bird" to "negative" to "couch" etc is a useless label that doesn't do a good job representing what the truth of that collection of energy is if you remove a subjective oberver. He's urging you to understand where you are, embrace where you are, and from my experience these energies are able to pass. To me, this is the best method to allow yourself to pass energies that we would label as "high vibration" or energies that are consistent with attracting certain things. You always must honor and embrace exactly where you are.
The response of the mind which labels and judges the sensations is automatic. Then how can a human be free from the judgements that the mind creates? What needs to be done voluntarily?
I get what you mean but these 'raw sensations' matter... They live marks in your emotional body. It's not because we decide that pain is not negative that it stops hurting. Stress for ex is proven to cause physical health issues. So, in that sense, some sensations or emotions are more negative than others, assuming we want to remain alive and healthy.
I always thought that thoughts trigger emotions. In a way that "emotions appear when body reacts to certain thoughts" which we then judge and try to run away from. Would the body produce chemicals for "negative" emotion if the mind was fine with situation? Probably not or? I mean unless you count the conditioning of the body, then it makes sense. Am I wrong to think that? Or were you trying to make a distiction between emotions and feelings?
Great question. I feel that thoughts do create emotions however our response to the emotions shifts the energy about it. We can observe the thoughts and emotions without attaching it to an identity...attaching it to the of story 'this is who I am!' And hold every thought and emotion with kindness or compassion instead meeting it with resistance of this need to change, be fixed, be healed to simply allowing it to be what it is...energy flowing on the present moment🙏❤🙏
Actually in absolute level, it’s true there is no good or bad, neither neutral. But it is okey to see things in a concept, relative concept to go begond concept. Karma is relative concept coz it teaches us about good and bad. But we can use this concept to go beyond. So does not mean all the wisdom being thought is not important. But at the end, everything is comes from the mind including all the teaching, do not let imprison in the concept.
Very nicely explained. Thank you.
Thank you
Its wierd that when i feel some sensation in my body i feel like i have to label it as tension or something else /i suppose really its just energy till we put a name to it .great vid thanks
It is not a myth, there are a natural hierarchy of frequencied. However, Jeff have a good point. Taken to far, tho.
Thank you Jeff, i love what i heard from your video. But before the mind label sensations, is there an awareness of it ? I mean, for example, if i'm in the midst of a car accident, there is an intelligence other than the mind, (the mind is completely shut) and there is something else who will guide me between through the bad and the good of this fatal situation, preventing me of any harmful decisions. If i feel sadness in myself, without labeling it, i can't talk about happiness while living it. So without labeling good or bad, high or low, there is sensations who are anything except being comfortable to live for example ?
So true!
An interesting point of view
Love this
