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.
Self Realization isn't an escape from life but a release of the attachments which bind one to a concept of life. Without an intent to honestly explore the fear, pain and narrative of one's accumulative sense of self all one does is continue the avoidance of what is. And what is never needed to be cloaked by reactivity. That reactivity was just an attempt to protect oneself. True intimacy with what one truly is is a process of unlearning and uncovering. Be patient and kind to yourself. Make friends with silence. It has been mistaken as the place where fear resides. It is not. It is where one can find clarity and peace. And yes there is no need for workarounds when you begin to trust the benevolence of that which has always been there.
Well said
Beautiful, reassuring invitation. Thank you :-)
When I feel resistance I immediately want to “psychosnalize” what I am feeling and why I am feeling it. I have found that’s my way of escaping it and making myself really miserable. “If I can just figure it out…then I can fix it”. 😳 Letting myself just feel the feelings is actually so much easier but definitely not what I default to. It’s hard to catch myself but I’m getting better at it.
Good insight!
I know this sooo well, too. Endless reflections, analysing.. .seeking for "control" in the world of mind🙄🧐. And not sensing, what truly "is". Have had this insight..but still stepping in the same "trap". Hight ime to leave the "known"...😳
1. become aware of it and feel it in the body
2. accept that it is there
3. question it once you’ve found the root. do i need to change this?
Listening to this had an aha that Addictions are Resistance to what is.
I want to comment, I dunno what to say, I feel the power of words, I notice resistance so badly I want to give myself an uppercut. These latest talks are pulling the rug out big time, I just want to reiterate gratitude from this soul 😊❤
thank you for this,Angelo...speaks right to my fear in the gut right now...
1- Do I feel resistance ? Feel it so closely that you are it
2- Can i accept the fact fully that some resistance is there ? 6:58
3- Do I have to resist at all ? 8:50
So grateful. Angelo is speaking right to the edge of where I’ve brought myself over the past 10 years.
That is literally word for word what I feel as well ❤
Just incredible pointing! The timing of this is truly perfect. 😊
Totally convinced that Angelo is reading minds 😛😛😛🤣🤣🤣 lol Thank you for all this great info 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
So pertinent. I’m sick with a pretty miserable cold and have been lamenting that “ I don’t want to be sick”. So this was the perfect exercise to look at this whiny resistance. I’m here and I gotta go through this and yet the resistance makes it all the more miserable. I’m still sick but at least I’m a bit more accepting of the situation. Thanks Angelo.
Thank you for this. I know it's all true intellectually but I struggle with it deeply. As a teacher and an artist, I feel resistance towards triggers from so many disparate angles such as classroom management and interactions with students, career disappointments, frustration with supervisors and curricula, etc. It's very hard to practice this from all facets at once.
Just remember there's only one illusion to be exposed, however many triggers and trajectories. ;=)
it's good that you see different aspects of this struggle. That means you can systematically deal with one angle after another. I am sure that this technique only takes a couple minutes when you have adjusted yourself to it through practice.
A powerful approach with broad yet specific applications. Very valuable, worth re-listening to a couple times for me.
This one needs its own playlist.🙏🏼You spoke to me tonight as I experience the worst resistance I’ve ever had. Thank you 🤍
Shit yes! I agree. The latest are next level, painful but know it this out the gate weirdness is ok. ❤ 😊
You’re welcome ☺️
HUGH HUGH HUGH HUGH. Did I mention this is HUGH! Tough work with indescribable results. Smoother than butter……. Absolutely can not be intellectualized. ❤❤❤
Exactly what I need. This is where I've been stuck. Thank you.
Wow what a lightness I felt during step 3. Almost as if all the resistance is just a joke! Could you make more videos / guided meditations on tuning into this resistance?
I can’t follow the steps but I can feel what you are transmitting with all of my being. It is so stunningly beautiful. I’m so confused. And so unable to express myself. Nothing makes sense but everything is so close.
I love you with all my heart.
I have a job to go to tomorrow and I’m really not sure how that’s going to go. My brain is not clear. My heart is though and some part of my mind is.
🙏🏼
The resistance seems to cling to form vs. formlessness. Cling to certainty. Not having the rug of form pulled out from under one's feet. Yet there is no form in your mind yet the resistance feels so real
Thank you for your service Angelo!
What happens when i feel resistance to doing things (almost anything) almost all the time? It's a constant struggle against life and activities. Been like this for a couple years, i thought it was just unmotivation and a desire (and habit) to spend time only doing stimulating activities (phone, games, music, etc.), But i feel it's deeper than this
It's good to see this, but just know even though it seems like constant it is often a handful of triggers that seem to solidify. Get to those triggers :) Use this process and be pt then let me know how it goes !
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake thanks angelo :)
Wow this was my question 😂 Thank you for asking it and thank you Angelo for the response ❤
Expectations, that’s a good one. Thank you.
🤯😱 ohh woo …. wow… okay lots of visceral reactions coming up crazy 🤢🤢🤢!!!! This is great 😃😃😃!!!! A new landscape to explore woohoo 🥳
I needed this do badly. Thank you.
Thank you.
you have striked with gold again!
Thanks Angelo, very helpful and clear. Feel like I'm slowly being reduced to rubble, destroyed even; i feel totally seen, unmasked even... and in some way it's Ok, even though it's very very uncomfortable.....****
I used to think almost the whole of my life, certainly from about the age of 2/ 3 years old, emotionally , I believed, "Life is/was against me" and about 3 moths ago ( I'm almost 70) I glimpsed that actually the opposite was, is, true; that its me who is against life, and this video shows, endorses for me how much I lived, and live out of that belief--( Life is against me) making that belief 'true'.. Somewhere or other Life knows truly, deeply , fundamentally, that Life isn't against me and this is a clear way of exploring that belief richly,
Thanks, j
You’re very welcome! You’re not alone, most of the human population functions that way and it goes unnoticed largely except for the side effects (violence in various forms).
But you’re entering a miraculous zone where years don’t matter so much, the more you give yourself to this natural process the more the rewards of being unguarded will be revealed. 😊
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake thank you Angelo, very much appreciate your reply... I felt exhausted, shaky, shocked, all well, feels a bit like ground zero, all OK, many thanks, j ,
@@lalitavajra6078 yes it’s all ok. Always ok to ground, take a bath, walk in nature, pet animals, listen to music. Walk barefoot and pay attention to those sensations etc
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake thank you :)
Thank you Angelo, very helpful :)
The methods you transmite are Simply working.
🙏🙏🙏
my fav...trust experience not a story 🙏when goes with it sincerly, you are Here, Simply at Home🙏and full of gratitude
Thank you Angelo and Violet 🫂❤️🌹😊
Extremely useful, thorough and detailed instructions. Thank you 🙏🏼 Practice, practice, practice 🙏🏼
Glad it was helpful!
I sooo thought this was going to be about resistance to COLD plunging! 😄A lot of this totally applies, though! That might be an advanced version of getting through resistance since most people have a strong aversion to the idea of cold immersion. An apt metaphor, at any rate. I never would have believed I'd enjoy it as a daily practice as much as I do. Kitaro Waga is a good teacher....
Gratitude. 🙏
Gratitude.
thank you
Push and pull. Mind wants to push and pull
❤Thank you!!! This has been my “practice” for a couple years now feeling the resistance one after the other, but “shame” appears to be a theme for me coming up so much with different styles 😊 is there an end to this? Do we have to be done with all the resistance before fully realized?
Before fully realized there's no one anymore resisting, there's just a fleeting resistance arising in consciousness. I think just by entering stream entry/having first awakening helps a lot in resistance but i still I didn't get to that state
@@simonsanchezkumrich8489 Thank you so much, that make sense no “self” to resist…
There is an end to resistance yes. Shame is a very important area to investigate :) It will soften for sure :)
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Thank you 🙏
Thoughts around Intimate relationships are the "stickiest" types of thoughts for me. The hardest part is letting go of controlling outcomes in that dimension. Logically I know "I" can't control any if it. Still a struggle though :/
Thanks again Angelo! I need some guidance however. When I truly focus on my inner body, what starts out as general restlessness quickly evolves into a cute anxiety and it becomes so uncomfortable, I have to stop and distract myself. I know this is where I need to be and am determined to continue. Any words of advice?
Yes when you with in that way and start to feel the anxiety ask yourself what beliefs are operating about the experience.
Please clarify this. Do i have to keep recreating triggering thoughts? I can find a thought that comes with very minor resistance or body tension but it quickly leaves. There is just sensations. Also is the sense of a self in the head something to deconstruct in this manner? Thank you..
Resist politicians 🤣🤣 if that doesn't show you resistance is futile, maybe you need more Star Trek. 🙃🙏
😂😂
How is it that feeling and allowing resistance often or mostly feels natural, and sensations can be allowed, but then some core issue comes along, and you'll find any excuse not to feel it? Narrative's so loud it's hard to get under.
Are you saying that we can inherit the world ?
Disidentyfying with mind is rather a process which takes time ? Or rather like boom. Cuz now I am feeling the emotions staying present in knowing that im not my mind crying because some emotions come. Then im happy and again something comes to the surface and I cry again like im dissolving past or something
Im leasing from power of now and new earth mostly, Just bought your book recently but I feel fear after Reading some sentences like you mentioned haha
It can be both for sure.
💗💗💗
Does this also apply to resisting resistance? Is there such a thing of double resistance? Example: I express, my partner resists or rejects my expression, and then I resist their resistance. What a trap!!!
I’m still trying to figure out the definition of “resistance”. Is it being annoyed, irritated, aggravated, ticked off? Is that the definition of resistance?
I wouldn’t worry too much about the definition but rather the “feel” of it. Also it may sound bad but before awakening we often have no idea how much resistance there actually is. For me it suddenly became obvious that most of what I considered to be feeling normal was actually a plot of resistance. When that discomfort dropped I was very surprised by how much was there. There was still a lot to work through later but a huge amount dropped.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake So it’s almost like a protection or a defensiveness of your identity?
@@josephschulz5256 yes something like that. Tho it doesn’t appear that way overtly, it appears more like struggling with life, driving with the brakes on. In popular vernacular you could say anxiety, fear, depression, neurosis etc etc
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Thanks Angelo, well said!
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake thanks
What am I not resisting???? 😮
😂
How about:when I say ,,Yes,,my Yes îs Yes, and when I say No my No îs No!!?
Can you talk about not accepting one's body? I tend to want to work out to change my physique rather than to take care of it.
🙏
what is resistance in this context? aversion?
Does resistance = tension in the body?
I don't see why the third step is needed. If one accepts the resistance it will disappear, since resistance is nonacceptance
What is this all about? What should we do here on this planet? Just work till retirement? Why is there so much non sense in this world?
Im in psychiatry right now btw and being prepared for work life. Im not crazy, i was just misunderstood by my mother, who thought im talking nosense when i tried to explain her what spirituality/ nonduality is about. Actually i think shes crazy, but thats just hiting a wall, as i told her: If im crazy you are too
Oh ya. What all these people said. This one is a clicker!
When you know... ...well, not so much _know_ because you're not supposed to draw conclusions from what I am about to convey... ...I also do not want to say _experience_ bc there are no objects to experience and there are no experiencers...
...just *be* without tugging or pushing... ...but also w/out being absent or inactive... ... don't try to grasp, fathom or process anything... ...rather immerse the non-rational part of your brain into.....
blah blah blah BLAH BLAH 🙄
Dude, please. I love philosophy, but this is *not it* imho 🤕
It's not philosophy, you don't get it, and the one trying to get it is illusory, how funny is that
@@simonsanchezkumrich8489
No, you are *pretending* to _get it_
Be honest with yourself.
This isn't philosophy it's about direct experience :)
Excellent! This video is so helpful! I love the bottom line. I can get tangled in technique.Thank you for mentioning in losing "nothing", there is everything. :))
You are so welcome!
