    03:25 Potentially one of the most accurate insights I have ever heard as to why people, [me included] consistently attract things unwanted in opposition to things desired. That fake 'layer' that is the imitation 'home place' that hides the deeper, authentic layer of the true self. Elegant and sublime as always Mr Spira.

    I'd really love for Rupert's video about the queen to come back online. Taking it down serves no purpose except hiding his views/experiences. No one is perfect here, we all have beliefs that have been ingrained in our minds. Showing Rupert as a normal human serves humanity better than portraying him as an all knowing perfect being.
    Too often spiritual leaders are being shown in this way. I think it's time to humanize them. Time for them to show their weaknesses, their imperfections. It's so hard to find spiritual leaders who don't have a narrative or a perfect public image to preserve. Most act as if their mind/ego doesn't have a place in them anymore... and I'm simply not buying that.
    Rupert, use my feedback as you please, it has no ill intention. I also absolutely accept I could be wrong. I love you brother, and I thank you for the many qualities of your being that you share with us.
    So anyway, here's the message I left on the queen's video, I was editing it just as the video was deleted:
    "It's sad how so many people still adore the most powerful. Slaves defending the enslavers.
    Knowing oneself and spirituality aren't only about nonduality realization. There's work to be done in this 3D dual world, and the first thing in the list is pointing at the monsters who have been working hard for centuries to keep humanity in misery. Seeing Rupert doing the complete opposite is disheartening and signals how far we still are from being free. Free from the duality of our minds, but also free from the chains of a system designed to create suffering, maintained by a few families such as the queen's.
    I can understand an analysis about the symbolism of the monarchy, there's lots to talk about in that regard, but Rupert you've gone far beyond that. You literally said: "in her actions as much as her words she demonstrated the qualities that must be the foundation of a society that wishes to live in peace within itself, with its neighbors and with the environment".
    As humanity, I wish us to awaken from this long slumber we're in. Not just with pretty words and metaphors (very much needed), but also with loving action to rid ourselves from these parasites".

      It’s a little distasteful and disturbing if he made a video praising her. Sure she was a frail old woman and did a job that she was forced into really. But what she represented- colonisation, enslavement, domination of indigenous peoples, violence is not what one could call very ‘spiritual’. As for her family and friends (J.Savile amongst other despicable humans), my comments are best left unsaid. Rupert I really think you should stay out of this one. I didn’t hate the Queen nor did I wish her dead. She was what she was, the last vestiges of a dying empire.

    Psychology should at least investigate the nature of the mind, for the mind is the origin of understanding where sensations, feelings, emotions and perceptions arise, a step further is consciousness which is the source of the mind. I hope that one day this will happen in science.

      @@LinguisticLifeform I agree about the materialism belief system being incompatible with truth, but science in and of itself is not a materialist belief system, if it is in search of truth, which is what ideal science represents. Material reductionism is not science. It is a belief system. Regarding your second point about diverse ways: The underlying themes of the pursuit of truth can be categorized, so all the diversity can fit under one umbrella. By analogy, the field of nutrition states that people need nutrients. Of course, that is very individualized and can change over time for the same person. Do we need to create a new field for each nutrient or can we just call the field nutritional science and then address each person as needed?

    @davidalbro2009 11 місяців тому

    I don't think Rupert is correct about the higher emotions of love, peace, and joy. If awareness has different qualities, then we aren't describing awareness. Awareness is unchanging. It is in the movement of the mind that we feel love, joy, hope, happiness, irritation, anger, fear, depression. These are all levels of how much we shut off pure awareness.
    If I showed you a flute, but you had never seen a flute before, and I asked you what sound it made, then you would have no idea. The flute is very real, but you need something else to know its sound. You need breath for the perfectly still flute to have sound.
    Just as a flute needs breath in order to know its sound, awareness needs mind in order to perceive its characteristics. Without mind, awareness is pure stillness.
    This is highly consistent with Rupert's teachings on awareness, yet he contradicts himself frequently.
    This is why there seems to be different types of love. There is the type of love that promotes unity, kindness, gentleness, and peace. Then there is the type of love that is perfect allowance, the love that allows wars, rape, and torture just as it allows feeding the poor, helping the impoverished, and healing the sick. How can the love that promotes kindness also allow torture?
    Those do not go together. The reason they don't go together because one is love in its essence. This is awareness. The other is love in action. The reason these two states of love seem so contradictory is because one experiences itself as love and one experiences itself becoming love.
    Awareness is love as being. Mind is love becoming. Mind is the concept of not being love. But everything IS love, and thus mind is forever, gloriously, becoming love and it understands deeper and deeper.

    • @davidalbro2009
      @davidalbro2009 11 місяців тому

      This is also how and why you can have to different yet eternal states of being (for a lacks of better words). There is static love which is inherently eternal and then there is becoming love which derives its being from static love (awareness) because it's whole purpose is to know and see and experience static awareness.
      This is why "becoming aware" and "raising your consciousness" is synonymous with knowing god or becoming spiritual. That is exactly what mind is doing, becoming aware of God!
      And this is what the Bible describes when Luke says "in [The Father] I live and breath and have my being" and when Jesus said "I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”
      How does Rupert not know this?

    • @davidalbro2009
      @davidalbro2009 11 місяців тому

      AND this is why mind is portrayed as the Son and awareness as the Father. The Son comes from the Father in their relationship and all the fruits that the Son experiences in becoming the Father come from the Father because they ARE the Father.

    • @FalseCogs
      @FalseCogs 2 роки тому +1

      You seem to be talking about _attraction_ and _aversion,_ which are the primary poles of valence. These in themselves are not the cause of psychological suffering. Rather, their egoic counterparts, _attachment_ and _resistance,_ are where things get _personal._ The terms themselves may overlap, but there is an important difference: _identifying_ with the objects or ideas in question. That is, when we say, "x represents me and mine, while y represents the enemy", _this_ is when the ego comes in. If we identify with certain things or phenomena, we then feel pain when those elements are lacking. Likewise, we feel pain in the presence of the unwanted. Moreover, the very thought of losing or lacking the object of attachment brings suffering. Similarly, the thought of the object of resistance brings feelings of uneasiness or even anger. The key distinction here is the involvement of the ego, which is all about identity and separation.

      @@jonathanross812 Some concepts lack well-defined or at least well-known terminology. I imagine there are better ways to describe and delineate these ideas, but then we might run into unfamiliar terminology, which may be a problem when teaching the general public. I agree that the terms are often used in ways that disagree with other usages. But this problem exists across all sorts of fields. Each community has its own interpretations and connotations for terms used by other communities.
      If you are suggesting the language is _intentionally_ misleading, I will have to disagree. From a neurological standpoint, the aim of spiritual awakening is to shift from the logical, egoic, division-centric left hemisphere to the holistic, intuitive right hemisphere. This is an oversimplification, but it gives the gist. To allow walking away from the logic system, we have to reach the intuition system, which is inherently tricky and not necessarily logical. Conventional language may not be well fit, hence the weirdness.
      Where the ego comes in is that its nature is heavy on logic. When the ego -- that is, social self-preservation -- is riled up, it generally riles up the logic system. This is why calming the ego by embracing oneness and interconnection helps with liberation. It allows the logic system to relax, which allows the holistic, intuition system to shine. Humans in general are quite social, hence being egocentric. Modern society pushes it overboard by creating massive competition, with pervasive messages of insufficiency. This creates a lot of dissonance and hence suffering.
