This thing is never the same. Always fresh nuances, levels or views.
+R Hayman To the open eye, every moment is fresh, every arising is new. :-)
Joyful
Yes, the freedom is tangible. I woke up an older guy today, older than me, so OLD! LOL Anyway, he was in bed, in pajamas, in the middle of the day, which suggests to me that his health was not great. I had a strong sense that he would not be with us much longer.
As he woke up, you could see his body react to the weight of the character leaving him. It happened several times, as he got clearer and clearer. Beautiful man, who woke up very clearly after a lot of misfortune and a harrowing search. What a pleasure and honor is was to see him set free from the weight of his own imagination.
thank you Fred for this video,i love your saying 'there is only one thing going i loved it,love you Fred.
Love you too, Neena!
Hi Fred, since I recently "discovered" you, it's been a pleasure to practice mindfulness, bearing in mind that "I am this" and "I am that", i.e., everything around this unit here, including the unit itself, with or without language. Love to hear you!
Thank you, Anna! You and your baby are a perfect picture of love. You really make my heart smile.
Thanks for the suggestion to revisit this. It's a beautiful meditation!
+kathleen sutherland I'm pleased to hear that you have taken my suggestion. I hope many more will do so.
Thank you Fred for being the light that you are. I have been waiting for so long to hear these words. I also bought one of your books today "The Book Of Unknowing" Looking forward to reading it.
Ray F Thanks twice, Ray! I suspect you'll get a great deal out of "Unknowing." It's packed. :-)
Wow, so helpful and just beautiful. Lots of love and thanks, Fred!
John LaDeur Thank you, John!

I just feel like I'm seeing through everyone/everything/non sentient things. Through their eyes(which a lot don't have) or just being or not actually eyes but awareness. Seeing what our "self" considers growth when really nothing grows because it is and always was and always will be but I've been living believing this physical mass I am encumbered in defines me same with everymental thing in this brain of "mine" Just the beam of light or whatever that starts everything and seems to be everything. Like putting gas in a car to keep it going. To bad it's not magnified X 100 and constant.
+reeeisrubber Check to see if you're really encumbered by a body. That's not my experience. You're not contained in the body, the body is contained in you.
First of all thank you i enjoyed this a lot but one question came out of this meditation the being which we are is sensible but what is watching the sense of being what is that ? It has no location and it is not being i can’t find that one can you help me out ?
What do you think it is which is watching the sense of being, Mori?
@@FredDavisNonduality it must be me you us 😂
No tingling... how exactly to I go outside the body exactly? Didn’t get this at all
Forget the tingling. You know you're here, that you exist. Focus on that. Then watch it again.
I can feel the sense of being within my body. but it seems to end at the edge of my skin and the outside world.
+Nathan C Is that your skin? Are you sure there's an "outside world"?
Hi not Fred,
Been loving your videos.
Hoping you wouldn't mind some feedback on this one. Assuming not, here goes:
I know you were sitting with your eyes closed. But around 10:00 or so it started to feel less like a meditation and more like a lecture. Once you started telling us how it was with our 'sense of being' I guess we could either agree or not. Well, for me, I can't seem to relate to the phrase 'sense of being'. Sense of being what? The term I always use is 'awareness'. In that I know there is awareness. And it appears to be in relation to a 'body sense'. That is, I can feel my body's ... energy field? I can sense my limbs, torso, etc. Is one outside the other? I have no idea. And if you tell me how it is, I guess I shrug my shoulders and say "well, if you say so". Awareness doesn't seem localizable. Suppose I got into a really good book. Then there is awareness of the animated story, but any body sense seems to fade far into the background.

The term "sense of being" really worked for me after reading the Book of Undoing. It clarified what Nisargadatta was talking about when he said "stay in the I Am". Nisar also said "start with the one thing of which you can be sure, I AM". The tterm sense of being just works better for me, and in many cases where we use the term Awareness. Such is the insufficiency of words and their particular meaning to each person. I have now grown comfortable with these terms now, but it took a while.
HI Fred, I can't seem to feel the sense of being. I have tried lot's of meditation and breathing exercises but i get a complete bank-nothing.
If I put you in a sensory deprivation tank, where you're getting no input from your senses, wouldn't you still KNOW that you're alive? How would you KNOW? Wouldn't there be a FEELING of aliveness? This KNOWING-FEELING that you cannot fail to have this very moment as you're reading these words is that sense of being, that knowing that you're present, that you're here.
Hi, I have many many thoughts and often can not stop them but get lost in them. These thoughts are the only thing that tells me I'm alive. Even for medical examinations I find it impossible to talk bout how my body feels. I've thought about your sensory deprivation tank without success. Can you explain it in another way?
Come to satsang. I only do quick pointers here, and usually give those only once. Unlimited voices call out for the unit's limited attention--even though I am unlimited.
Don't try too hard man
You say, if I understand correctly, that Being is not aware of all the things playing out in the myriad universes (perspectives)...that it can only be aware of itself. If nothing can happen outside of Being (Awareness), isn't it, by definition, aware of these universes...even if it's just one big collective dream?
From a slightly more practical perspective, Awareness seems to be orchestrating everything so it must be aware of how things are playing out?
Which Being are you talking about that is unaware of an imaginary "other"?
Who wrote that comment?
Who wrote this one?

Ocillating less these days. I think the mind begins with many occilations, the ocillations of emotions, judgements, thoughts etc. Ta Hui called it all mind's discriminating consciousness. It is the ever judgemental mind, always in flux in a state of confusion. I think and hope the ocillation between dream state and clear is the last ocillation, then abiding. I think that is why it costs four hundred bucks lol
Who is it that's oscillating less?
