Love this pointing! So paradoxical, negating and affirming. It seems to mess w defenses and sidestep them, leading nowhere but somewhere beyond the known. Shades of how Milton Erickson did hypnosis. Thx!
This without concepts. "Morpheus : The pill you took is part of a trace program. It's designed to disrupt your input/output carrier signal so we can pinpoint your location. Neo : What does that mean? Cypher : It means fasten your seat belt Dorothy, 'cause Kansas is going bye-bye."
The reason this might be slippery and hard to grasp is that we often start the looking process from the wrong place. We feel like a person trying grasp reality. This is sort of like a movie character trying to touch the TV screen. If you instead start the looking from the position of beingness/consciousness/reality it will be way more natural and easy. You're not a person in reality, you are reality and the person is inside you.
There’s nothing to hold onto - not even the fact that there’s nothing to hold on to. It’s funny how we try and try to see what you mean, but it happens when it happens 🤷♂️ I was watching this video and thinking… okay I know I’m not thoughts, but I still have to go to work. And it was seen… it was like the last little piece of ingrained behaviour that was obscuring the fact that there is nothing happening in the first place hahaha ❤
You're what has been there all these years. You can actually sense it, kind of?. But it's ungraspable because it isn't actually anything you can grasp or really sense. When you try, you won't find it. Don't feel for it. Just be still. Just be. That's it. It's nothing and it's everything. Don't look for anything. Just....be. (It's the easiest fucking thing in the world, once you get it... But it's the hardest to figure out because you REALLY have to get out of your head. Just. Be.
Yes! I feel this motion of dipping my toe into the world of thought to uphold the ego selfs need to be. Looking into the mirror of the world every grasping of the ego is revealed. Then falling back into the “Rest” that can’t be described, there are no mirrors there..
I was sobbing the other day after watching a non duality video. There are so many out there putting so much energy into waking up “others”. It must be all that is left to do after this is seen. Source trying to wake itself from the dream again and again and again. What a game… beautiful ❤ Self to Self, thank you 🙏🏻
What a relief to know I won’t lose the floor if I fall 🙂 I used to believe I only have it when I’m present, alert. I would mad at myself whenever I realized I lost in thoughts 😡… Heard people refer to what Jesus said “I’m a movement and a rest.” Now I got a taste what it means. Thanks Angelo 🙏 💜
After several watchings of this, and several listenings with eyes closed, I believe you are pointing to the core of *everyone's* being, before the sense of "I": /the background upon which existence is perceived/. We are ALL that innocent, blank, emptiness that preceeds thought or experience. I feel I can almost touch it, yet it is ever elusive. I'll never get there, yet it is my core essence. 💠 Paradoxical indeed.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake I don't know what's wrong. I feel like I should enjoy getting a ♥️, and a confirmative response from you. But, I don't. 😶 I only feel a deep sense of despair and hollowness. I can't feel joy in my heart anymore, like someone I deeply care about (wife, kids, a parent, a pet) is dying, or something is leaving me, or my favorite material item is gone forever.😭 I can't stop sobbing. I am surrounded by my family who says they love me, but I can't feel it - I only feel a profound misery; a deep DEEP sorrow; or despondency. 😫 Again: I don't know what's happening, I can't shake it off, like I'm dead inside. 💀
@@infinitenothingness not sure if you’ve ever had depression in the past but it’s something to consider. I would recommend emotion work. And/or doing what you can to deeply feel the sadness in raw form in the body. Notice how the interpretations arise about what is or is not there and see that they aren’t necessarily the same/connected to the sensation of pure sadness. Often we are holding sone distance but don’t realize it.
@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Interesting. I sincerely appreciate the candid response and advice. 🙏 I don't believe it is depression, but it is entirely possible. I seem to feel a bit better after a long session of deep meditation and stillness this afternoon 🧘♂️. I was able to directly confront the feelings and allow them to rise and truly feel into them, searching for a direct cause, but unable to pin point any causal relationship. I, honestly, believe it may be the ego fighting to survive as it knows it is losing a battle with the pure essence of being/awareness - as I approach the truth of what I am, precisely. 🤔 🙇♀️ Namaste 🕉
@@infinitenothingness I appreciate that exploration. You’re doing great work. This is not easy work but you have the capacity. Just keep at it and approach it with compassion ❤️
Question: What happens when Dr. D dreams? Does he retain the awakened state? In some form of lucid dreaming? Or does he drift in the ebb and flow of the dreaming? Sort of unaware like most of us? I’m curious.
Yes but... IT...what Is...the Field..... has to submit to the Rest, Me spirit cannot be independent. How does the coexistence shift so as to function smoothly the sense is like an anchor... like being in a cage. Is that sensible? I do feel free but on a chain.
Angelo - is 'resting between thoughts" or "consciousness without thoughts" similar to waking from fainting or sleep, when you can see a point of light, but have no thoughts until something comes on line and you actually wake up? It seems like I'm going from just being alive to actually knowing I'm alive. Is that the place to stay? It can feel like I'm a baby in a womb just floating and only hearing muffled sounds, like I'm under water.
Yes this sounds right. Always a little hard to tell. The key ios to be alert for any background thoughts or perceptions that still might be lingering :)

I forgot. Feeling every feeling I've ever felt all over again.

The"texture" of "this" is clarity. Not a forceful or solid substance-like state of mind or being. The clarity is like "still water flowing" 🖐

Curious about the nonduality video...who knows, maybe If I watch that video, maybe then I will get it.
I think you are right about that.

“it’s an act of rest”,,,,well said. The struggle to name what IS has frustration littered with comedy. A very pressing paradox indeed~~
Thankyou, with love ❤️
Noble Rest: Silence and the compassion of true allowance. ❤️🔥👨🚀💀🕳

I’m curious.
It’s hard to describe the noticing or tasting of the indescribable.
Effortless surrender ⚫️
Yes but...

hrm. Reserve the light. let go. Trim the wick before the candle is lit by you. 💛
In this way of pointing the fear of being tethered is not what you are, it's neither tethered nor untethered :))
A phrase of Heidegger comes to mind -
“Openness to the mystery.”
Oh that’s good! Hadn’t heard that
When I say "my awareness", what does "my" refer to?
I'm curious: why do you repeat the audio twice with different backgrounds?
Per request
