What I find useful is to think " I am not a separate object in the universe - everything that happens does so inside me - there is only me." Then see what happens. Its like dreams, which are only projections of ourselves performing as all the characters in an internal theatre. Just don't say this to friends or family or you won't like what happens.
Non-duality is Oneness, Unity and Cooperation as in (Me and U) Duality is Divisiveness, Rivalry and Competition as in (Me against U) Non-duality is to be FOR another person, rather than AGAINST another person.
Al Blaze the problem is all your examples have an inherent dual nature to them. Non-duality is almost indescribable, because even the concepts of oneness/unity/cooperation imply the existence of a polar opposite concept, which is dualistic and defeats the entire purpose of describing Non-duality
i experienced nonduality as transferring my identification to the contents of my conscious experience which can be all that falls within the bounds of your visual field...
I did a retreat with Tony Parsons and experienced the awakening he talks about temporarily. It changed nothing for me. Eventually I did have another awakening which did change absolutely everything overnight. My life's never been the same since - it's amazing - it is awesome, it was the last thing I ever expected it would be - literally - the very last , the greatest paradigm shift anyone can have, and the truth that ends all searching and speculation about reality etc. that's my experience and everyone who's had this awakening will tell you the same thing. Being born again: if you really need to be set free, go to the Lord Jesus Christ. Don't worry about anything else - he is who he says he is and it is how he says it is. You'll see . God bless you in your inquiry soul seekers.
Seems to me that there is a person, and not a person; oneness and separateness; reality and illusion; time and timelessness… Everything and nothing happening together; a paradox from which there is no escape---at least while having a body.
יהוה I cant believe that you said thatIts loving.. its just very kind that you said that... YourselfGod... its really appreciated... you are an INCREDIBLY holy spirit.. You are talking about the NondualWhich is incredible... I cant handle these convos.. yet I can't run... I just cant envision what it will be like After.. but I guess the thing is.. this is no after.. its nondual.. which is why.. it doesnt really even begin
read nisargadatta maharaj or ramana maharshi if you want to know what non-duality is. the brain doesnt create conciousness, conciousness creates the brain. conciousness is the projector, the mind is the film, and the world is the image. as far as doership and choices, these are all word games, youre instructed to seek out the self with earnest self-enquiry. constant mindful attention on your "i-am-ness".
The vibration is the culmination of our intention within the form. Duality allows a field of action for our creativity to establish its potential. Duality is the existence of the options that are available to us and the motive force behind our conciousness. Non-duality is the expression of the condensation of our intention. It is our destiny to repair the rend that the spirit required to allow our descent into the material plane. Non-Duality is a state of being and not a state of mind.
Non-duality can be discovered in Samadhi. The experience, as I have had it, is that of a lucid dream. When experience and what is being experienced are merged into a single movement. When though and material order each other simultaneously. The universe is a mirror.
one day, feeling furstrated with the whole idea of non duality, I take a walk . As i was walking i kept asking my self what is this? what is going on? who am i ? slowly, everything there including me merged together into one reality. i could no longer see seprate objects; there was one frame. i got so excited, i wanted to rember the way back into this. i wanted to hold to it . soon, there was me there walking on a park trying to understand.
Non Duality mean One Truth, SELF,you cant have two truths,we are that Truth, And it cannot be described but it can be known. There is no seeker as Tony says,but the mind creates one, its called the ego mind made self, and its very difficult to let go of. How can you not be yourSELF ? SELF IN CAPS MEANS THE TRUTH not the mind made self,the person, which is just an idea based on conditioning. There is no person. You have always been the SELF, HERE NOW. Just needs recognising beyond the mind made self.BUT you have to do the practice, the work,Even Tony Parsons did years of practice,which somehow he seems to have forgotten and believed it was by walking in a park it happened.. On a rare occasion as with Ramana Maharshi and Eckhart Tolle LASTING realisation can be sudden and happen with no practice,but that is Gods grace and most likely the result of past lives spent in practice of some sort. I had an experience of Non duality suddenly aged about 8 ,which literally blew my mind for a few hours it was glorious beyond description, blissful,it took another sixty years to understand what had happened,in that long time period I had more sudden non dual experiences,again not knowing what they were It took the internet age on UA-cam to finally discover what had happened. Now there is just a peace for the most part,not blissful normally but in meditation it can get intense and I don't want o come back.......
I wish one of these people would give a straight answer here. From what I've seen from other people it's basically just not having a inner narrator. I was born without a narrator and didn't know other people had them until very recently.
good video, but what's non duality? for everyone interested in loosing the sense of self, or at least having a glimpse of such feeling, I can recommend "liberation unleashed", you could start to read the free pdf. Additionally, in my case helped that I started with the belief that there is no free will. I think it is much easier to see trough the illusion of free will, rather than jumping right onto the illusion of the self. (Therefore I can recommend Sam Harris.) no self no free will looking further into secular buddhism. enjoy and don't get lost in seeking.
there is a sense that there is one of me. so i am either the object writing this or i am the exeriencing of the writing. so, i must be prior to the object. and, what power is there in experiencing?
The question "what is non-duality?" is self refuting. If non-duality "is" something, even the color blue of the sky, then it is not something else, like the white clouds in the sky. Therefore there is duality in saying anything about non-duality. You would have been better off by asking the question and then presenting 9 minutes of black silence. But that would be boring.
Non duality is perfect Oneness. God created us perfect,there is only love all else is but illusion sickness, pain, death. the devil is an illusion in fact this world is holographic its an illusion, Only God exists everything else is a dream.
They're all beautiful. They're like lensens, like puzzle pieces, like perspectives. But only if I make them that. Also, when we talk of seeking and seekers, we make them into that. Ooooh, even when I write "we" I first diversify individual "you's" out of nowhere, then I reunify them to a mysterious community called "we" and stand there again, wondering, puzzled, what is that "I" again? :)
If you accept the thesis of non-duality one must also accept duality. You can not have one without the other. Rather, try thinking in terms of vibrational frequencies and how we exist in our relation to everything that was, that is and will always be.♾
Yeah, you are right. That is what I mean. Why become an observer, when you can do so much for yourself and humanity? And why have a conclusion already about how things are non-dual? Self-inquiry is finding out the truth, whatever the truth is. You cannot find true happiness flowing advaita. It is just a philosophy in which practitioners argue intellectually tp prove their point.
seems the practice of 'Non-duality' is an attempt to describe how all lifes things and beings are interconnected and shared as and within the universal life source field of consciousness. Which has all things and beings guided in doing all that they do via the influence of the actions, thought and words of all other lifes things and beings. , vi their vision of their intent (Intent is not something to do, it s something to see!!).
The whole thing is a paradox. Thinking like this makes people think there is something wrong with themselves when in reality there is nothing wrong or ever has been. These are nothing more than concepts that people introduce into other peoples minds. Whenever we feel incomplete we feel the need to reach out for something, to add something to ourselves or to bolster ourselves. Thinking something is wrong or missing is the source of all the problems in the world. The best thing a person can do is to drop the entire idea and just live their life knowing they are complete and whole within themselves and do what they know is good to do and don't do what they know is bad to do. That is all there is to it. You can read books and watch videos of people using circular logic for the rest of your life and never get anywhere. The whole idea is a wild goose chase. It is just something else to help people sell books and to make an easy living. They say what you really are is consciousness itself, well no shit like we already didn't know that. The only unconscious people are dead. If no one had ever made you think something was wrong with yourself you would never have had any problems to begin with. Just know you are okay no matter what and completely accept yourself. Run the charlatans out of business. Peace.
The vibratory component of our spoken words contains the complete oscillation of the reality that they subtend. Thus, the duality is entirely contained therein, and only your perceptive awareness limits your ability to conceive of and derive from it's presence.
tricky here (the mind is very good at it's game of seducing us) 'Advaita' can be used to avoid, deny, separate oneself by saying 'it's all illusion'. The true Advaita - Oneness imo is the full inclusiveness, the way 'God'-Source includes all that is.
Hi there, You probably meant Yoga instead of Advaita (non duality). Kundalini Yoga is a form of meditation which can give superhuman powers, but since the objective is self realization they do not demonstrate coz the powers mean nothing to them. There are other forms of yoga which do not give you these powers but you can still attain self realization. I hope that clears the confusion. Best wishes,
@IAm010110 concept: existence cannot be conceptualized becuase 'it' is prior to thought. therefore 'it is not an object nor subject to time. what is considered reality is actually the unreal. like a cartoon. flip the pages, characters change positions but nothing actually happens, all spontanious inclucding thought. thinking but no thinker. powerless witnessing. if no thought, identify the enemy.
It would be a good idea to see past the belief and identification with the seperate personal self, aka 'me'. It is illusory. The seperate personal self aka the 'ego' believes it is real and believes it has it's owm individual free will. In actuality there is only the larger SELF, Source, Absolute, God, or whatever name you prefer. In this physical manifestation we simply serve as mechanisms of the Totality. The Totality, SELF, etc is ONE. It is not seperate and it is our true nature or essence.
We draw illusory lines that do not exist, in reality there is no division between 'matter' and 'non-matter.' Reality is one indivisible whole. And there is nothing relative to the whole(nothing exists outside of it). Thus,'Nothing' is infinate. As for conciousness,as i said it is merely accumilated sensory data(neurophysical activity in the brain). It is conditioned through your 5 senses. your sensory experiences is your conciousness. You looking at this PC screen IS your conciousness.
I pronounce it add, vay (as in may or way), tuh (as in tub)... add-vay-tuh. I think empirical non-dualism is just as much a relative, subjective hallucination as rational dualism. They're just two ways of reflecting/projecting reality that go hand in hand. That's right, reality is both a reflection, and a projection, and reflecting doesn't necessarily precede projecting, like objectivists are inclined to suppose. In a way, DIVIDING experience into non-dualism and dualism is also dualism, and (un)helpful.
Yes and No Does not the so called 'consciousness' choose? One is assuming the illusory doer as no choice but I am consciousness and not the illusory ego and therefore I choose...
Yes and No Doesn't so called 'consciousness' choose? One is assuming that the illusory doer has no choice but 'I am' consciousness (or just 'am') and not the illusory ego and therefore I choose...
That which is obscured by the mind of its true nature is non-dual. That which is known by the mind is dual. Looking at itself through its own mind posture Consciousness in its own non-dual existence appears to itself as a multitude of entities.
Agreed that the cosmos is expressing itself through the form. One can not be identified with anything as one do not exist. Consciousness exists. Brain exists. Neurons exist. Blood exists. Body exists. You?Consciousness IS. Brain thinks. Consciousness IS. Brain is servant. Consciousness ALWAYS IS no matter what.Consciousness IS. It is not identified with anything. It just IS.
I see a lot of confusion in the comment section about the true essence behind this message. Which is funny because they're all me so they should know the truth. But I suppose that is all part of the illusion trying to pull me back into the game.
God is reality and God performs miracles. If you devote your life to a philosophy in which you become only a watcher, then what power have you. God has given you all power, to act, to perform miracles, to heal the sick, to become healthy, to get the best woman you want. Here and now. Yes, Advaita is just a philosophy, where they twist every word to mean all is one. Howmany people have truly realized advaita? Their minds are full of concepts,
There is no Self. The body is not you, the mind is not you, the perception of these things is not you. There is no You. The mind is secret and private to nothing, other than itself. Your body lives itself. The mind thinks itself. You can look for yourself. There is no doing, on do. Life lives itself.
God is a concept too. He is only real to the individual if they believe he exists. If God is reality, Prove it. Where is God? In the bible God is stated to have said," I am that i am." The one! Meaning not two. If god is everything then there is no you. You would be god and so would a tree, etc. Religion is an illusion of the mind, 'like everything else.'
Unfortunately I'm so egoic, that what I experience is real enough for me, so sayings like "that car doesn't exist" or "nobody feels headache" are even more unreal then my experience of car or headache. I really believe that (non-existent) Parson is liberated, and those words are true from her perspective, but he is giving pearls to pigs. Anyhow, if those pearls are coming from the right "place", they may have some 'nobodying' influence. Sorry my English. watch?v=4KXidr0z1RY
What is NOW? If NOW is used in the way we have commonly agreed to use it then NOW is ALL and there is no "prior" to ALL because there is no prior to NOW. Only the transparent authentication and illumination of that which is by that which is. And not even that.
non-duality is not something that just "happens". there can be no "happening" because you already are it. you are awareness which means you are everything. so spiritual seekers stop searching because there was nothing to look for in the first place.
you guys need to look into some quantum physics... and the double slit experiment... there is a need for consciousness... in order for anything to exist at all...
***** Tarzan must have been Enlightend,he hadn't a clue to who he was, even if he was a he,had no language ,quite happy swinging from tree to tree until he was enticed into the "civilised world", given a name,with expectations,responsiblities,worrys,I bet he wished he was back in the jungle, freedom.I think the most important clue to non duality is realising you as a person is just a memory, a story, a programme on the hard drive,called brain. Whats left if the story is seen to be just a recording? most of it other peoples recordings that the brain has stored on top of yours.....A massive film/sound library of knowlege that has buried the innocence of no one ,knowing nothing..being nothing..... no questions, if theres no one there,there are no questions. no seeking,just Being.
***** The DS experiment proves there is a connection between the observer and observed. It doesn't prove arisings don't exist if we don't know them- a simple proof is germs- they can get you whether you see them or not.
Deep sleep is a biological function,it needs no observer,as the brain is not conscious in deep sleep the idea of a person doesn't arise. But on awakening and remembering we are a person and that we had a good nights dreamless sleep,proves it did happen.We feel refreshed and energetic. The joke is, seekers are trying to achieve this "no person" state of consciousness whilst awake,to become enlightened. If one thinks one is a person/ego seeking to get rid of itself,it is doomed to fail,we only are reinforcing the person ideas existance. Normally one only is aware one thinks it is a person in night dreams or daily awakeness. I conclude from what a lot of non duel teachers say and from my own awakening experiences that Enlightenment or Liberation happens by itself,by Grace/accident Saying that it does help if one can at least logically work out we are not the body mind person idea, because they are changing all the time. Whats constant is the awareness of these things. So if "we" are just awareness or No -thing,then is no person, no seeker to be Enlightened. The path to Enlightenment is a dead end,its a myth, waste of time money and effort. But listening to non dual teachings--- innocently ---whilst performing a simple physical task seems beneficial to me as one is more relaxed in listening.It goes in deep somewhere. P.S. The ego wont like this......mine actually shouted out in a loud thought, when I was enjoying a walk on the sands,that these Non duality teachers were all lying! so loud in my head it made me jump,I was upset at the time but gradually came back to No-thing awareness,but it comes and goes , to be honest. One day ego will be gone forever, shut the door on your way out, good riddance.
First person : Look at that mountain, it's beautiful. Second person : Look at that mountain, it's made up of a combination of elements. Third person : just looking at the "mountain".
I have seen and I see the where, what, when, how and why of me. Do you know why and accept all that you do? Non-duality does nt exist. Practicing it is to further entrench within fear, pain and suffering. duality is being confused with duelity and non distinct/separate.
The search for the truth of this, is inseparable from the feeling of separation. Any truth you hang on to is exactly what is making you feel like you dont get it yet or that your not free or whatever. just made my first vid check it out! "nonduality and belief"
Shankar the source of Advaita was ordered by Shree Vishnu in the Padma Puranic history of the universe. Lord Vishnu asked that lord Shiva hide His personality and teach that the world is illusion in order to bewilder the materialistic minds. Thus came as a Brahmin Shankar in Kali yuga to teach non-Vedic science of Brahman, completely plagarizing Mahayana Buddhism. However, there is an eternal personal Controller. Surrendering to that One Supreme Person confers grace which reveals the absolute.
nuttymanyelismate. You asked "If God is reality, prove it. Where is God?" So I ask, does reality have a location? Is reality something that can be pointed at? Or is reality both the pointer and the thing being pointed at? You then said "Religion is an illusion of the mind, like everything else." So then I ask, if everything is an illusion, what is it an illusion of? Even if you say that all is illusion, you are implying that there is a fundamental truth behind all illusion.
"Reflexive9" You've missed the point to such such an extent that i don't even know where to begin. Tony actually allows people to call him on his house phone (free of charge obviously) to discuss anything you want. His message isn't people-friendly, surely if he was constructing some sort of philosophy soley with the purpose to make money, this would be the last one he'd choose! Sounds more like you just don't like the message, so are trying to attack the messenger.
wow, it's the grand High Priest of FUTILITY himself, tony parsons ! if there's nothing to do, nothing to get and nobody to know it, why does he bother to open is mouth at all ? what's the sensible response to hearing his message? never to give him even one more second of your attention? after hearing it once, why do people STILL waste their time chasing his wonderful message of Futilty?
@JTmedia01 Yes, I DO love your quote. I believe... if you can call it that.. that you're very correct. check my videos if yah want. "Adam", I am that "IS"
Nothing is witnessed because nothing is happening. In order for there to be a witness you are in effect saying there are "two" and thus non-duality is contradicted. As I said, only the transparent authentication and illumination of that which is by that which is. And not even that.
look at the tree, foot, and house now and then look again in 100 yrs. all changed. what recognizes that must be timeless or there could be reference point. seeing but no seer. what appears as reality is actually the unreal. like a cartoon. turn the pages, the cat changes positions, but nothing actually happens.
What I find useful is to think " I am not a separate object in the universe - everything that happens does so inside me - there is only me." Then see what happens.
Its like dreams, which are only projections of ourselves performing as all the characters in an internal theatre.
Just don't say this to friends or family or you won't like what happens.

It is an absolutely mystery. There are no words to describe it.
Consciousness becomes what it has as its object.
The substratum of all thoughts is the changeless Self ever in repose.

@IAm010110 concept: existence cannot be conceptualized becuase 'it' is prior to thought. therefore 'it is not an object nor subject to time.
what is considered reality is actually the unreal. like a cartoon. flip the pages, characters change positions but nothing actually happens, all spontanious inclucding thought. thinking but no thinker. powerless witnessing.
if no thought, identify the enemy.
illusions of duality. its not real in the sense we think it is but i would agree with you
It would be a good idea to see past the belief and identification with the seperate personal self, aka 'me'. It is illusory. The seperate personal self aka the 'ego' believes it is real and believes it has it's owm individual free will. In actuality there is only the larger SELF, Source, Absolute, God, or whatever name you prefer. In this physical manifestation we simply serve as mechanisms of the Totality. The Totality, SELF, etc is ONE. It is not seperate and it is our true nature or essence.
We draw illusory lines that do not exist, in reality there is no division between 'matter' and 'non-matter.' Reality is one indivisible whole. And there is nothing relative to the whole(nothing exists outside of it). Thus,'Nothing' is infinate.
As for conciousness,as i said it is merely accumilated sensory data(neurophysical activity in the brain). It is conditioned through your 5 senses. your sensory experiences is your conciousness. You looking at this PC screen IS your conciousness.
I pronounce it add, vay (as in may or way), tuh (as in tub)... add-vay-tuh.
I think empirical non-dualism is just as much a relative, subjective hallucination as rational dualism. They're just two ways of reflecting/projecting reality that go hand in hand. That's right, reality is both a reflection, and a projection, and reflecting doesn't necessarily precede projecting, like objectivists are inclined to suppose. In a way, DIVIDING experience into non-dualism and dualism is also dualism, and (un)helpful.
Perhaps, judging by your name, you should investigate the interaction of duality and non-duality through the medium of chiaroscuro? ;)
Yes and No
Does not the so called 'consciousness' choose? One is assuming the illusory doer as no choice but I am consciousness and not the illusory ego and therefore I choose...
The real question is what is the non-duality of duality and non-duality?
NON DUALITY INCLUDES DUALITY AND PARADOX
yes
Yes and No
Doesn't so called 'consciousness' choose? One is assuming that the illusory doer has no choice but 'I am' consciousness (or just 'am') and not the illusory ego and therefore I choose...
That which is obscured by the mind of its true nature is non-dual. That which is known by the mind is dual. Looking at itself through its own mind posture Consciousness in its own non-dual existence appears to itself as a multitude of entities.
Agreed that the cosmos is expressing itself through the form. One can not be identified with anything as one do not exist. Consciousness exists. Brain exists. Neurons exist. Blood exists. Body exists. You?Consciousness IS. Brain thinks. Consciousness IS. Brain is servant. Consciousness ALWAYS IS no matter what.Consciousness IS. It is not identified with anything. It just IS.
I see a lot of confusion in the comment section about the true essence behind this message. Which is funny because they're all me so they should know the truth. But I suppose that is all part of the illusion trying to pull me back into the game.
what witnesses the 'i don't believe that?' we don't live in existence , we are existence. all nameable comes and goes but I don't.
God is reality and God performs miracles. If you devote your life to a philosophy in which you become only a watcher, then what power have you. God has given you all power, to act, to perform miracles, to heal the sick, to become healthy, to get the best woman you want. Here and now. Yes, Advaita is just a philosophy, where they twist every word to mean all is one. Howmany people have truly realized advaita? Their minds are full of concepts,
There is no Self.
The body is not you, the mind is not you, the perception of these things is not you. There is no You.
The mind is secret and private to nothing, other than itself.
Your body lives itself. The mind thinks itself. You can look for yourself. There is no doing, on do.
Life lives itself.
I'll tell that to the tax office
Sounds like you are talking about the OM.
God is a concept too. He is only real to the individual if they believe he exists.
If God is reality, Prove it. Where is God?
In the bible God is stated to have said," I am that i am." The one! Meaning not two.
If god is everything then there is no you. You would be god and so would a tree, etc.
Religion is an illusion of the mind, 'like everything else.'
Non duality is. . . Boggling my mind?
Unfortunately I'm so egoic, that what I experience is real enough for me, so sayings like "that car doesn't exist" or "nobody feels headache" are even more unreal then my experience of car or headache. I really believe that (non-existent) Parson is liberated, and those words are true from her perspective, but he is giving pearls to pigs. Anyhow, if those pearls are coming from the right "place", they may have some 'nobodying' influence. Sorry my English.

What is NOW? If NOW is used in the way we have commonly agreed to use it then NOW is ALL and there is no "prior" to ALL because there is no prior to NOW. Only the transparent authentication and illumination of that which is by that which is. And not even that.
did anyone else notice his eyes ? ??
Nonduality is a word with infinitly small meaning
non-duality is not something that just "happens". there can be no "happening" because you already are it. you are awareness which means you are everything. so spiritual seekers stop searching because there was nothing to look for in the first place.
you guys need to look into some quantum physics... and the double slit experiment... there is a need for consciousness... in order for anything to exist at all...
***** Tarzan must have been Enlightend,he hadn't a clue to who he was, even if he was a he,had no language ,quite happy swinging from tree to tree until he was enticed into the "civilised world", given a name,with expectations,responsiblities,worrys,I bet he wished he was back in the jungle, freedom.I think the most important clue to non duality is realising you as a person is just a memory, a story, a programme on the hard drive,called brain. Whats left if the story is seen to be just a recording? most of it other peoples recordings that the brain has stored on top of yours.....A massive film/sound library of knowlege that has buried the innocence of no one ,knowing nothing..being nothing..... no questions, if theres no one there,there are no questions. no seeking,just Being.
***** The DS experiment proves there is a connection between the observer and observed. It doesn't prove arisings don't exist if we don't know them- a simple proof is germs- they can get you whether you see them or not.
Deep sleep is a biological function,it needs no observer,as the brain is not conscious in deep sleep the idea of a person doesn't arise.
But on awakening and remembering we are a person and that we had a good nights dreamless sleep,proves it did happen.We feel refreshed and energetic.
The joke is, seekers are trying to achieve this "no person" state of consciousness whilst awake,to become enlightened.
If one thinks one is a person/ego seeking to get rid of itself,it is doomed to fail,we only are reinforcing the person ideas existance.
Normally one only is aware one thinks it is a person in night dreams or daily awakeness.
I conclude from what a lot of non duel teachers say and from my own awakening experiences that Enlightenment or Liberation happens by itself,by Grace/accident
Saying that it does help if one can at least logically work out we are not the body mind person idea, because they are changing all the time.
Whats constant is the awareness of these things.
So if "we" are just awareness or No -thing,then is no person, no seeker to be Enlightened.
The path to Enlightenment is a dead end,its a myth, waste of time money and effort.
But listening to non dual teachings--- innocently ---whilst performing a simple physical task seems beneficial to me as one is more relaxed in listening.It goes in deep somewhere.
P.S. The ego wont like this......mine actually shouted out in a loud thought, when I was enjoying a walk on the sands,that these Non duality teachers were all lying! so loud in my head it made me jump,I was upset at the time but gradually came back to No-thing awareness,but it comes and goes , to be honest.
One day ego will be gone forever, shut the door on your way out, good riddance.
There is no prior to NOW. Wait, who said that?
First person : Look at that mountain, it's beautiful.
Second person : Look at that mountain, it's made up of a combination of elements.
Third person : just looking at the "mountain".
Until we die searching for the unexplained seems hopeless even though it can be interesting
I have seen and I see the where, what, when, how and why of me. Do you know why and accept all that you do?
Non-duality does nt exist. Practicing it is to further entrench within fear, pain and suffering. duality is being confused with duelity and non distinct/separate.
The narrator must be - Clair Parsons
Duality is imagined.
Guys, do not kid yourself with advaita. You were not meant to be a powerless observer. You should ACT.
The search for the truth of this, is inseparable from the feeling of separation. Any truth you hang on to is exactly what is making you feel like you dont get it yet or that your not free or whatever. just made my first vid check it out! "nonduality and belief"
what exists cannot be conceptuaalized because it is prior to all, including thought. the end
@lollolllolllll It's either/or in this case, actually.
Yahweh!
Interesting how everybody that talks about non-duality is English... at least as far as I saw here on youtube.... :)
Shankar the source of Advaita was ordered by Shree Vishnu in the Padma Puranic history of the universe. Lord Vishnu asked that lord Shiva hide His personality and teach that the world is illusion in order to bewilder the materialistic minds. Thus came as a Brahmin Shankar in Kali yuga to teach non-Vedic science of Brahman, completely plagarizing Mahayana Buddhism. However, there is an eternal personal Controller. Surrendering to that One Supreme Person confers grace which reveals the absolute.
nuttymanyelismate. You asked "If God is reality, prove it. Where is God?" So I ask, does reality have a location? Is reality something that can be pointed at? Or is reality both the pointer and the thing being pointed at? You then said "Religion is an illusion of the mind, like everything else." So then I ask, if everything is an illusion, what is it an illusion of? Even if you say that all is illusion, you are implying that there is a fundamental truth behind all illusion.
"Reflexive9"
You've missed the point to such such an extent that i don't even know where to begin.
Tony actually allows people to call him on his house phone (free of charge obviously) to discuss anything you want.
His message isn't people-friendly, surely if he was constructing some sort of philosophy soley with the purpose to make money, this would be the last one he'd choose!
Sounds more like you just don't like the message, so are trying to attack the messenger.
Why don't you describe what duality means before getting into non-duality.
wow, it's the grand High Priest of FUTILITY himself, tony parsons ! if there's nothing to do, nothing to get and nobody to know it, why does he bother to open is mouth at all ? what's the sensible response to hearing his message? never to give him even one more second of your attention? after hearing it once, why do people STILL waste their time chasing his wonderful message of Futilty?
NON DUALITY INCLUDES DUALITY AND PARODOX
Who are these folks trying to convince?
@JTmedia01 Yes, I DO love your quote. I believe... if you can call it that.. that you're very correct.
check my videos if yah want.
"Adam", I am that "IS"
Smoke some dimethyltryptamine and you might just "feel" or even "hear" it...whatever it is 🤣
It isn't "it" but it's definitely more interesting than our usual experience of "it".
Nothing is witnessed because nothing is happening. In order for there to be a witness you are in effect saying there are "two" and thus non-duality is contradicted. As I said, only the transparent authentication and illumination of that which is by that which is. And not even that.
I am that ? or I am that !
look at the tree, foot, and house now and then look again in 100 yrs. all changed. what recognizes that must be timeless or there could be reference point. seeing but no seer.
what appears as reality is actually the unreal. like a cartoon. turn the pages, the cat changes positions, but nothing actually happens.
You just dont understand Advaita. Advaita is thousands of years old. It is not a miracle, it is reality.
who should ask this question dear?
who should ask any question?
aint no questions
just
this.
Who would speak about it?
Wouldn't there just BE speaking about it? And that is allowed?
Tony Parsons, Richard silvestre.. The rest are confusion
Thank you. A new and different explanation of the truth that makes sense on truthcontest dot com
These "interviews" sound like a Gadhafi speech...
