I know one dog and her tortured past. I observed her in her new home. Although she improved a lot after years of living new life she never fully recovered from beeing terrified when seeing unknow man or hearing slaming door, window exct. I have been thinking like you, Suzanne, and I almost beat my self for beeing scared in life. I saw my self in that dog, when first time we stared at each other. Her green eyes penetrated my soul and suddenly I understood. I cryed deeply that moment and judgment for being illusory instantly transformed into self-respect for what I went through as a child. Today I distinguishe between illusion and condition.
I’m struggling with self worth and assumed it would just naturally return after I had done a certain amount of healing. I know my higher self has guided me to you this week Suzanne. I also know the truth of what you are saying, but it takes my mind a lot longer than others to process the information. The me screams out I’m stupid🤷♀️ So I will continue to listen to you, because all this fear needs to stop. So grateful to have you in my life, thank you❤️❤️❤️
thank you; i (self/mind) just had a "holy shit" moment when you all of a suddenly said "there is no separation" right after "you will never be able to experience when you are not there" which makes total sense and the mind's attention was decently concentrated on the sounds. (and in the middle, i used the "what is mu" koan to gather thought energy into concentration). i saw the "no separation" for like a split moment; or got way closer to it than i ever have before. i'm looking at your patreon now, looking to see more of this/'you'. i saw the october 15 meeting and that you're are doing frequent meetings. i've been waiting to meet you for so long. i am so incredibly happy right now. and how come it's so cheap!!! (ah i gotta maintain equanimity).
Hi Suzanne. When you’re in this state, then how do we live life. There is no arousal of wanting, ambition, desire to obtain something in the external world. Then what do we do? How do we live? What do we live for? I feel content and don’t feel like I need to do something extra or more than the bare minimum…only do what is necessary but nothing more or extravagant.
Thank you for the reminder of when I had the realization of this truth. Yes there's like a natural programmed tendency to push away negative unwanted feelings, yet all feelings, whether it is love, peace, fear, anxiety, frustration, and a need to feel in control, are all sensed within the boundless spacious peaceful nothingness that we are. Thank you. Your channel and topics you speak about is so relevant and resonate easily.
Yes, it is truly horrifying. I have lost myself, whatever that means anymore. I'm just going about one now at a now. Time doesn't even exist to me anymore. Dying before dying is something that I never thought I would experience, but I did, and I'm still not over the process of it, if that's what I can call it, but there isn't a name, a label, an identity to call what there is no explaining for. Most people will never understand anything you and I are saying. I am the I am of all that is and will ever be. There was never more to get, more to find, more to be, more to become. I am, I am already everything and nothing. We are all differently the same ◑
You don't even have any makeup on and yet that just makes you even more beautiful I really love who you are Thank you for being this incredible human that you are
My dear, let me apologize first but I really feel your turmoil! You've attained the state of pure awareness and that gives you a sense of what? Others in your shoes are blissful, regular Joes or gurus! So please, tell me briefly where you stand. Much appreciated! 🙏
It appears that the dropping of the veil of self, happens in its own time. You can fear it and put it off, but when you can accept it, doesn’t seem up to me. The only times I feel disintegrated as a self if when I listen to you. Everything sort of flattens out, and its just internal transmission of understanding. Hopefully you will continue speaking because there are so few reliable voices about this. Thank you!
I ran away too. I am very happy you did though, otherwise do you think you would have gotten to recording these beautiful and serene videos where you share this exquisite part of your consciousness freely. You don't exist, I don't exist, but I love you
For sure with living in the head as defense mechanism, not coming 'down' into body / "heart" to really Feel. I did it totally consciously from a young age and have been aware of Needing to allow it completely. I kinda call it "embodiment". Been having "existential" Fear and Dread. Have been losing 'Everything" but I care less and didn't realize How attached I was to things, altho part of me knew and was afraid. I've realized that I've always had resistance to being here, being a human being, so constant resistance pretty much. Altho I cannot find a Me when I look, I'm not free of it / doership. I appreciate your words about it only being energy. I think there's a lot of energy here (story, but ...) I try so hard (unconsciously) to control it. It feels like Panic Attack. Right now, I'm just into Facing it! Allowing it, it IS Hell tho! Oh, I definitely have Anger! Wasn't allowed to show emotions as a child, I agree with that (story). Anyway .... thanks.
Fear originate from the ego, they are just thoughts, but your body does not recognize it as "not real....." Hence your mental and physical body will react on this negative energy, bad health as a consequence. Your soul/the conscious observer is your guide here, just surrender to it.
If I had to describe this period in words, it would be "not fun". And by "not fun", I mean LITERAL DEATH would be preferable to the months of grief and terror as God forcefully shreds layer after layer of your sense of self, living in fear of each new horrifying truth just waiting to reveal itself (all variations of the same uncompromising truth) and then to see first hand that NOTHING EXISTS. And ironically, *that's* the GOOD news. And then at some point, it just sort of ends with no resolution.
@@birgit8996 About 6 years. Started at age 19 when I was first introduced to the concept of Enlightenment. Kicked into overdrive over a year ago when the "dissolution" began.

There is no one here until you have to service your biology . Actually I can sympathize, I came to this state as a result of my experience with 5-Me0 DMT . An energetic singularity , an astounding state of being . After the brain chemistry begins to equilibrate and the sense of individualization returns there is much consider . My final analysis is a surrender to my electrochemical circumstances , the knowledge of my experience and to experience the moment as it arises . To breathe deeply and settle into metabolism.
Suzanne u are Amazing ❤️ How do I release trapped energy in the body if I have no memories and don't know where it is. The only memories I have are the ones I told myself or other people told me. I used to think this was a curse but I can see as a blessing as it never happened to begin with. Also I can see my built in reactions around my kids, family but I see it after and punish myself for not seeing it before the reaction. It's like i'm 'stuck on a merry go round I can see the truth but can't get off 🤷
Not sure I would agree with your idea (min 22:52) that animals can go thru a terrifying experience and just move on… I know a cat who was attacked by a black cat as a youngster and was terrified of black cats of his life- Or dogs who are afraid of males only because they were mistreated by males. There is also the story of crows recognizing the face of specific humans who attacked them and going after them. Animals build a story around what the dream is like just like we do. What is probably more likely is that they are not as attached to their “self” as we are and have a better chance chance of dropping it and living in Reality.
Animals can still carry a past trauma of abuse in the body. Some life events can be very shocking for humans, like going to war, and some of the terifying events can be trapped somewhere in the organism. Isn't it?
The person needs the structure of its story to ground it and help it feel safe because the "me" or person is a story. But when attachment to the story releases without any desire to create a new story, the raw core emotions of terror, loss, despair came up. But every emotion (even terror and despair) is still pure innocent boundless energy, it is innocently being terror, just as it is innocently being peace . Even the story of "I'm a suffering me because I was terribly abused" is more grounding to the person. Otherwise this is pure unbridled energetic expression vulnerable, raw & bubbling out of control with no sense of time, therefore no hope that it will eventually get better.
I'm not sure about wild animals, but in my experience with having a lot of dogs over the years, they do have a keen memory for when, where and how a "trauma" took place and seem want to avoid that in the "future" . For example, I had a dog who loved car rides until at 8 years old, I had to drive him 3 hours to the vet when he had a bad infection between his legs. He was in too much pain to lie down.. And on the way there was a bad thunderstorm, and later fireworks, both of which he was terrified of. For the rest of his life, he shook in the car and would never lie down again. I'm sure it's not exactly the same, I doubt he was suffering from the idea "I shouldn't be afraid". I think captive and farm animals also may react the same to traumas, and behave in ways that seem neurotic, but maybe not with added sense that "this shouldn't be happening to ME"
Ah yes I was referring to wild animals. I'm not sure what's happening with pets. It might be that they are more exposed to the 'me' energy and mirroring happens. This is all story... the unreal appearing as real at the same time... but now that you say that I do remember my family dog being a bit depressed, maybe it was the environment. I can't say anything for sure.
I wonder if the difference between wild animals and pets is that pets are in relationship with humans and become kind of selves through that process. They learn the routines of the household, the place and times of food-giving and attention, learn their names, certain words like 'walk' etc.
We are living two entities, the energy clustered changed to mass, body and mind, and the energy which is not visible, our soul. Your body and mind is the "do er" your soul is the conscious observer. They are both energy, the body and mind manifest the soul on this Planet, the physical world. The soul should dance ( and lead ) with the body and mind . Death does not exist, you can not loose "your" life since you are it.
Hi Suzanne i'm allready following a bit of time these understandings/teachings. Ive in my mind lots of concepts 'how this' needs to work. And in my head im already enlightened😃(with so much info ive gatered now.) But it are still concepts. Im going tomorrow starting meditating and lets see if i can go out of my head, because with all those stored information in my head i'm not getting it i think. What u recommend? meditation everyday good option, to come to the eventually truth?
Hey Mike. Nothing is needed for already this. There's nowhere to get to, cause this unconditional wholeness is already the case. Meditation can happen and it's not right or wrong but it won't get you to liberation because no-one becomes enlightened, liberated or awakens. There is only complete freedom already. This message isn't really a 'how-to.' But again, meditation and other practices can be apparently helpful for the sense of 'me.' The 'me' can't get to already this but it'll keep trying. The 'me' is part of this perfection. This wholeness appearing separate. Can't get closer or further away from this.
Of course the body is programmed to crave pleasure and shirk pain. It must be so to survive. Why else would a child (of any species) stick to the mother's side, because it feels good to do so and viceversa. Why else would any of us avoid danger?
There are no practices necessary because this is already liberation appearing as asking that question. But if practicing something happens then that too is unconditional freedom appearing as that. There's nothing you can do or not do to make this happen because it is already the case. This can be frustrating for the person but this is it, this is already it.
Why does the word 'I' come up in the words spoken? And 'we', and 'it'? There is a lack of stability here. Sometimes it's 'I', sometimes it's 'the me', sometimes it's 'the apparent me'; what use is this? What use is this for the world? I wish you well :)
Sometimes there can seem to be a sense of instability but it's happening to no-one. There's no real knowing of why this is happening. It just simply is. There are many concepts about the reason why and that's all part of the mystery play of life, part of the story. It's all unknown.
Freedom is already the case. Without the sense of 'me' it's seen by no-one that there was only freedom. That the 'me' was freedom itself appearing separate, seemingly on a journey to wholeness... That was all an illusion, a dream. Freedom is just this. There was ever only just this. Simply this.
@@suzanne-chang Thank you for your response - but I am still puzzled by the use of the word "freedom" here - the word "freedom" is used by many in non-duality - but i don't understand how there can be freedom without it pointing to someone receiving or experiencing the freedom ? Does this mean that nonexistence is freedom? It's hard for me to see how this could be true - this word "freedom" is a stumbling block for me - it sounds like the opposite of being bound - so wouldn't the nondual message be "neither free nor bound" (?) ( (I realize the word "freedom" has been a loaded one for me for a long time (in re: to nonduality) - Thank you again.
@@bobbilurie2121 hello bobbi , i feal what you are saying... for me i think is something that is reveled when the mind " disolves " it has this melt down ... i hade a glimpss of pure contemplation and just flow for days , pure stilness, no though, but after this everything just arise like before, the thing that change is how i percive emotions and thoughts, now is like i can "see them " and I am not being pull into them, I can see my patterns like an " corrupt flow " and some how consciously i break the pattern, let say anger , i just let it be in my body and in my awareness let it "burn" until it ends, and i see some effects in the body , more in the upper part ... i see flashes of light, like the sun light , instant sparks, sometimes is red, or orange... i am speaking from my own understanding that when you have clarity is freedom, when you question your motive and desires and you go to the roots of your own corrupt self. From my understanding there is no such thing as achivement of something...do not compare yourself with someone else and see your own life that revels to you as your way to clarity and simplicity, see what it wants to show to you and you will discover that authenticity that want to express trought your body , trought your point of awareness. So yeah...just words, dual non dual...just f... all and see it in your current situation. I wish you all the best
You are wrong about the animals not caring trauma, through their life.... Probably you mean accidental traumas... what most animals suffer from is systematic traumas. You can observe this perfectly in farming animals or pets, who have been through abuse and neglect... I've met even a goat with sever depression! I will strongly advice every so called non dual teacher, to stick to their direct teachings without offering "help" and "wisdom"... please know your limits without confusing people!

Going towards the pain, feeling the pain, living with the pain actually liberates me from the ego. I feel like I am in a tunnel of energy.

@@suzanne-chang Thank you for your response - but I am still puzzled by the use of the word "freedom" here - the word "freedom" is used by many in non-duality - but i don't understand how there can be freedom without it pointing to someone receiving or experiencing the freedom ? Does this mean that nonexistence is freedom? It's hard for me to see how this could be true - this word "freedom" is a stumbling block for me - it sounds like the opposite of being bound - so wouldn't the nondual message be "neither free nor bound" (?) ( (I realize the word "freedom" has been a loaded one for me for a long time (in re: to nonduality) - Thank you again.
@@bobbilurie2121 hello bobbi , i feal what you are saying... for me i think is something that is reveled when the mind " disolves " it has this melt down ... i hade a glimpss of pure contemplation and just flow for days , pure stilness, no though, but after this everything just arise like before, the thing that change is how i percive emotions and thoughts, now is like i can "see them " and I am not being pull into them, I can see my patterns like an " corrupt flow " and some how consciously i break the pattern, let say anger , i just let it be in my body and in my awareness let it "burn" until it ends, and i see some effects in the body , more in the upper part ... i see flashes of light, like the sun light , instant sparks, sometimes is red, or orange... i am speaking from my own understanding that when you have clarity is freedom, when you question your motive and desires and you go to the roots of your own corrupt self.
From my understanding there is no such thing as achivement of something...do not compare yourself with someone else and see your own life that revels to you as your way to clarity and simplicity, see what it wants to show to you and you will discover that authenticity that want to express trought your body , trought your point of awareness.
So yeah...just words, dual non dual...just f... all and see it in your current situation.
I wish you all the best

So why are humans different? Is it not a gift?
Huh?
You are wrong about the animals not caring trauma, through their life.... Probably you mean accidental traumas... what most animals suffer from is systematic traumas. You can observe this perfectly in farming animals or pets, who have been through abuse and neglect... I've met even a goat with sever depression! I will strongly advice every so called non dual teacher, to
stick to their direct teachings without offering "help" and "wisdom"... please know your limits without confusing people!
Don’t swear.) That f… word doesn’t suit you at all sweetheart.) I understand that there’s no one saying that word :) but still doesn’t suit your face.)
Sounds like you're trying real hard to get out that 500 word essay . So hard to understand what you're trying to say here sweetie.
