The World Is a Dream Inside the Mind - Non duality with Terrence

- Опубліковано 17 лис 2024
- The human being’s world is in here, (the mind). The seeming pseudo ‘me’ is in the mind also. Think of it like this. At night, dreaming starts to occur. Some version of ‘you’ arises and mountains, hills, buildings, cars and stuff appear. Is there actually anything there to be experienced? When you wake up in the morning, the dreamed world and character disappear. They’re not real. Upon awakening, this 'me' character disappears - Terrence

You're welcome 🙏
The Truth shall know the Truth and make itself free from you! 💥
Wonderful. One insight after another, all revealing the absence of what we have thought we were.
lovely ...
Thank You for these sharing's Terry.
2 see the dream as a dream is not a problem...just turn urself around and see where the last day ...hours are gone...are just a memory and memory is thought and thought is empty void. Though when u deep asleep in the dream and believe the dream is real u not get it...maybe when a nightmare appears or more...u will wake up...doesn't matter if day or night dreams actually.
Thanks 4 loading up those beautyful talks ♡
I can see why the label of dream, although description labels aren't easy in these cases. To me it seems more like a program game. (Having been both a dreamer and a gamer). That said, it seems like this gamer character is trying to wake up the player behind it.
You get points for even attempting to describe these things in a public forum. 💥
As an aside, i just now listened to a well known non-duality type speaker use the phrase that if a person thinks they know they couldn't be further from knowing. I find those sayings a type of belief game to re-direct a person from ever knowing the truth, because they will be set up with a belief that they can't know.
Similar to that old saying, " he who knows doesn't say and he who says doesn't know." That phrase is another re-direction to get one from knowing, as if knowing can't be attained.
So it was refreshing to listen to your words right after that other guys. 💥

😂😉🙏
👍
Enjoyed the intro in this 😊 not heard that before.
Thsnk you Terry for these videos. They are so clear and powerful. Can you help with a sticky point for me when you say "nothing happened". I was trying to o apply it certain situations but found it hard to realise that my mind had created these situations. If that's making any sense ❤
That would require a one on one 😁🙏
@@TerrenceStephens thank you. Yes please 🙏🏻. I'll be in touch 🙂
The me is a verb not an object and it claims each thought with a "historical self" placed at the front from the back it seems
Hi...fully understand your pointing's but id love to know if i do so please let me know if im right in what im saying:
^^^^^ on a personal level we identify with ourselves that we are the ones experiencing the mind but its not its actually
just consciousness conscious of something... its a dream so we dissolve on a identity level because we ourselves our face our body our mind the world
are quite simply forms within consciousness that is primary and everything else is an object or a story!!
thanks for your help man
Yes this is true 😁🙏
An idea can want something for itself. An idea can be afraid of losing something. An idea can know it's going to be around tomorrow. Apparently.
Sounds like a great idea 🤣🙏
@@TerrenceStephens I knew my comment would sound foolish. I just had to say it, because it's what this feels like.
@@MajorCulturalDivide All story within story within story, The story is only a story about the story within the story. When can a story actually experience anything?😀🙏
@@TerrenceStephens Maybe when the story creates miserable feelings in the body. And then some "thing" wants to get away from the feelings.
@@MajorCulturalDivide The apparent miserable things in the body are not separate from thoughts, in other words the apparent things are 100% dependent on the miserable thoughts to then be considered miserable things, the things in this case may be a sense of contraction in the body, that thought then labels anxiety, a sense of isolation/ separateness, the sensation doesn’t become a thing until thoughts label them as such. It’s not that the sensation is a miserable sensation and then the mind steps in and labels it a miserable sensation, it’s the opposite in fact, the thoughts first create a miserable story about something happening in the body which creates a sensation in the body which is identified as a miserable sensation, the thoughts and sensation arise almost simultaneously which is why it can be difficult to identify which comes first the sensation or the thoughts, it’s usually the thoughts unless of course there is pain in the body in which case the sensation/pain arises first followed by a story about the pain. In the case of anxiety not bought on by fear or threat, this could simply be the idea of separation/isolation which is thought generated and then experienced in the body as a sensation the thoughts label anxiety …
True...never knew why they not get oneness...is so obviously ...truly.
TERRY, IN REALITY WE R ONLY LOVE LIGHT ALMIGHTY BEINGS= PURE DELIGHTFUL PERFECTION...MAKING A WEIRDO DARK DENSE MATTER DREAM EXPERIENCE HERE IN THE INTELLECT MIND AND I TELL U WHAT ...I TAKE THIS MF DOWN❤AUM❤LOL
"Nothing happened.." what is the definition of something happening? If two people both observe a car accident and tells a mostly similar story about it, how can it be said that "nothing happened".... maybe I'm lost in translation, so many of these sayings become consepts themselves..
if two people in a dream agree on the circumstances which occur, did something *actually* happen? Same thing here.
@@krovvyyarbles Its all just perseption...change it...and the dream scenery does to.
I have a question: when you talk about amnésia and say that i would forget about the seeming me and still existe, somehow are you saying that this that lasts IS the real?
Yes, now come to see that this is not the personal self 😊
Thanks Terry! Another blast of fucking dynamite! The dream analogy never fails! Very helpful...
The false self is a superimposition (A phantom), blinded by itself via the experience of duality unawares of being ascribed to a pseudo pretext (Thus the assumed and azoomed adaptation of who a person takes them self to be), this is because acquiring the world illicitly also alters it’s optics. It is strung in the heart and projecting the Trinity, so contraction of energy can compound a person into believing it is them which feel anguish.
Colossians 3:3 ► For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.
So there must be a:
Seeing that you were dead [al-Baqarah 2:28]
He who is forgetful of the Self, mistaking the physical body for it. Ramana Maharshi

Is the world real?
So a genius can work out the dead?
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. Albert Einstein.

The Self looks like the world. But this is just an illusion. The Self is everywhere. One. Still. Free. Perfect. The witness of all things, Awareness Without action, clinging or desire. (1.12) yogananda.com.au/upa/Ashtavakra_gita/Ashtavakra_Gita00quotes.html
I very clearly see that which has been born and I also know that I am not that which is born, and that is why I am totally fearless. Nisargadatta Maharaj

There is only one thing: The world is not created in the mind, in the same way that the dream is not made in the dream character mind. The world is created in consciousness mind, right?
Indeed 🙏
