Thoughts are usually such a problem in our lives.
This is obviously the case for most of us who have never learn;'t what the mind is or why it functions the way it does.
Meditation is usually created as a means to an end, yet so many of us don't even know what meditation is.
Many teachers say they know and have an intellectual idea about it but they actually haven't really experienced it. If they had they wouldn't be teaching a practice.
This video is designed to help you out a little more than a typical meditation video.
Hope it resonates.
If I want to create wind I usually eat lots of pinto beans.
Haha, Ronney noooo 😂
Oh my goodness, I’ve just realised I’m discontented, I’ve been “unhappy” because I’m waiting to be enlightened! I have a good life, good family, enough money for my needs and wants, etc. But I realise my “dissatisfaction’ or not settling into my life is because I’ve believed I’ll only be ‘happy’ when I become enlightened. It’s a bit like when I had been in my career for 11 years and someone was talking about careers and I said I’m only doing HR Until I get my career. She said, but isn’t HR your career! Of course it was! No wonder my ‘soul’ was feeling uncontented with my ‘life’. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
The mind is always trying to get to happiness…this made me realize the goal of even the most redundant of thoughts…thank you for this reminder. 💜
My pleasure and thank you for your comment Adriane 🙏🫶
Hey I don’t usually comment, but I have to say-after watching this, I went through your channel and watched like eight of your videos. You made something ‘click’ for me, it was very much needed.
Please keep posting your wisdom. Can’t thank you enough.
Wow. Thank you so much for this comment, Lauren. this really means a lot!! I can promise the posting! But I can’t always promise the wisdom 😉
Can I ask if there is anything that resonated specifically? Then I can make sure I always improve my videos based on the loving people that cross my way 🙏
@@sajafendelI think you’ve mentioned this before in one of your videos, but as a fellow overthinker, your videos condense the insane about of nuance/information that’s available in this community about these topics. It’s like you’ve been in my brain and can distill the unnecessarily complex ‘add-ons’ from what’s actually important, and your videos are fantastic reminders. You’ve mentioned that this is what you wanna do with your content, and yeah just wanna let you know-that’s exactly what you’re doing.
I’m not sure if it’s from this video, but something I’ve been personally struggling with is marrying these two concepts in spirituality: desires are part of your human conditioning and should be renounced, or desires are a call to one’s life purpose (nihilism versus absurdism basically). I haven’t been able to answer this in my own life, and kinda had the thought ‘well if I don’t desire anything, why not just roll over and die? Chilling in wholeness is neat, but like, I could do this dead.’
I meant it humorously, but I think you said almost the same thing verbatim. I have yet to have anything addressing issues in spirituality exactly like this, and do it super simply. Bunch of pieces just fell into place for me.
Also your videos helped me realize how much I’m accidentally forcing things in my attempts to let things go. Negative emotion pops up, I’m super identified and attached to letting it go properly-so my nervous system hangs onto it for dear life haha. Don’t have an answer for this one yet, but awareness is the first step to everything I guess. My biggest issue in controlling the external has been my attempts to control myself, if that makes sense. You’re helping me sort that out.
Anyway, thank you for your wonderful content, I’ll be watching for as long as you’ll be posting haha.
I liked how you kept it simple and also your analogy of thoughts being like the wind was new to me 👌
I appreciate it bro I’m glad you liked it! Yes man it’s quite interesting I realised it when I was watching an incense burn one day and it was this perfect straight line without any wind it almost looked solid and then a little gust came and it waved almost in sync with what I was thinking and it just hit me that is the exact relationship between pure consciousness and thought, they are inherently one stream of consciousness contracted in on itself by itself. Then I applied the wind metaphor came after because it was easier to explain haha! But that’s the origin.
This is great because it's a struggle for all especially when you begin. But very well explained and definitely looking forward to the follow up content.
Thanks Robert I’m glad you think so 🙏👌
I love your content, delivering so much peace. The community is great too.
Thank you for all your support brother 🙏
Wow man, I’ve been looking for content like this for such a long time.
What a genius analogy you gave about consciousness & thoughts.
It’s true - humans are waking up to endlessly create thoughts that is actually what causes them to suffer. If they eliminate thought, their reality in its pure naked form becomes apparent. And we’ve become so extremely conditioned in living so ignorantly dialled into thinking that we don’t realise happiness escapes as a result of how we USE ourselves. Our mind and how we direct it.
Hey my friend I'm really glad you like the video and the ideas behind it. Thank you for the support! It really means a lot on a new channel.
I would agree we are endlessly creating thoughts, however I don't believe thinking is a problem, I believe it's only a problem when the thinking is on behalf of lack, fear or limitation. If you mean endless thoughts based on that then yes I completely agree! It is also useful to calm the actual thinking process to recognise what is "beneath" - which is not really beneath - but actually what thoughts are made of. If you take my wind analogy all the way, we see that if thoughts are a movement of consciousness, then thinking is in fact still Being, pure consciousness, and there is therefore no distraction from meditation.
Anyway, Have a great day :)

Great! I’m so grateful for the opportunity to learn this content. Feeling like I’m supposed to be doing different work, or feeling like I am meant to be living in a different place was creating such a heavy suffering in my life. It wasn’t helping anything-In the past couple of weeks since I have been in your community, I am much more astute at the office, and loving at the place that I do currently live. Not because I am content with either of those things, but out of love for myself. This content is so juicy. Unfree and when a suffering thought comes in, I see it right away for what it is and put it in the garbage pile 😂
This is incredible Leah! I’m so happy these beautiful shifts are happening. Thank you for sharing this! 🌅💚
You’re wonderful ! Love your channel !❤️
Thank you Sofia I really appreciate your comment 🙏🌅
This was a great video man! Very insightful and exactly what I needed to hear to get me back into meditation. Subscribed and anticipating the next video!
I’m glad you found it insightful my friend. I appreciate the support and comment, I’ll look forward to providing even more value in future 🙏👊
Anything in particular that you resonated with so I can be sure to improve my content?
@@sajafendel your analogies are really effective. It can be easy to overdo them but I thought the wind one in particular was very helpful. Idk, usually videos like this sound like annoying guru shit to me but I can tell you are being authentic. Just keep being yourself brother, and people will see that and show up for it.
@@wadecarefully Hahaha I know what you mean. Thanks for the valuable feedback my friend. I will continue to do so :)

Well, that was clearly and well explained! Also, nice to see that your words align with your presence, which is not that common here in youtube. Happy for you 🙏🙏🙏😊
Glad you enjoyed my friend :)
Rightious service ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the comment 🙏
very well said
Appreciate it man! Anything stand out in particular that you’ve noticed your experience?
Sounds like Advaita Vedanta
I heard similar ideas while watching lectures by Swami Sarvapriyananda like ones about consciousness
Yes this is Advaita. Although I came through a different path and found advaita later.
❤❤❤
Saja, hi, I never comment on videos, but you mentioned near the end of this video that you were going to make another video on how to think and feel from awareness! I can not see that video on your channel. Could you link me to that video ! I'd love to see how one could do that! Although I know it's not a doing! Always love! Kevin
I’ll create it soon. I think I forgot to make it! 🙏
Thanks, saja! I'd really appreciate that! You're a wonderful human being for all this! It's a beautiful place you have created here! Thanks for making the video! In advance, obviously! 🙏
Saja, Your comments are insightful and powerful enough. You do not need to use the F word. I know it is just to exclaim point, but as a viewer I find the F word inappropriate and not fitting to the high quality of your discussion.
Yes conditioning from my rough past, it will fade out 😉 thanks for sharing 🙏 I appreciate your words.
why do you feel the need to judge? Rumi said, There is a field out beyond wrong doing and right doing, I’ll meet you there. When you lay down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about.
@@kevinmcmillan33 Rumi expressed his views and preferences, just as I did. Your comment is a judgment itself. Turn around and look within.
