Thank you Collette, you've said it in a way that makes it easy to understand. All anyone has to do is practise this until the thoughts lose there power over you. ❤
Poetry Nancy Boy Glenny Penny is double dipping, and without any hint of shame, or evinced evidence of either protocol or pursuant proprieties! So I have read a total of three actual book length poems (depending on what counts as such... a slippery slope indeed!) but considering myself the best fit to judge such things here in the dystopian daymare, I think that David Jones' (for you Dunning-Kruger types, hanging around smoking outside the laundromats here in "Smartville," it's NOT the one from the Monkees!), "The Anathamata" is about as good as it gets! I will admit that Edwin Arlington Robinson's "Amaranth," which is easily as close as any book I have ever read comes to simulating the actual dream state in prose, and even much more so than The Bard's great "Midsummer Night's Dream" frolic, although the latter is of course a play, technically, rather than a poem (though I wouldn't want to be the "untamed shrew" calling Shakespeare "too prosaic!"), as is my main girl Edna Millay's brilliant, "Conversation At Midnight," which, while she calls it a poem, is absolutely configured as a play (not that I wish either to try to school my "patron saint of verse" on what is, and isn't poetry!)... But Jones' "Anathemata" (London, 1952), is the best beyond question, the "Ne Plus Ultra," the "Ring Pass Naught!" How many poems have a 34 page footnoted introduction, that is more brilliant, and more subtly hilarious, than the next ten books you've ever read? Jones only ever published two books, 1937's "In Parenthesis," a WWI era (ostensible) novel, set in France, and basically also a very dreamlike (or at least bleary!) period memoir/pastiche, that nonetheless persists curiously in one's memory, and then "The Anathemata," in 1952, which is nominally/apparently "set" in a curious amalgam of Greco-Roman, Arthurian, and Scandinavian mixed milieus, slightly unstuck in time, but that also somehow manages to include the ice age, and the entire +/- 250,000 year history of "modern humanity," and then home again, not quite in time for tea! Not at all an "easy read" (and why should it be?), it will often take prisoners, but their fate is usually unclear! Were they lost at sea, or marooned on a far off archipelago? And where are the terrible tithing tribes, still lost... or found? If you don't "get" why the following snippet, from the introduction, is subtle and humorous, it might not be the envivifying cold draught for you, just sayin'... "Like the elder boy in 'The Prioresses Tale,' who knew well the necessity and significance of the hymn, 'Alma Redemptoris Mater,' I too might say: 'I can no more expounde in this matere I lerne song, I can but smal grammere.'" And this is my book report... "I liked this book because it was interesting! There were many big words, but the nice librarian lady, Ms. Whiteman, showed me how to look them up in the Mirriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, and then it was real fun!" -- The End
I’m waking up from sleep to prepare leaving for Thanksgiving diner with family. Of course, my ‘critical factory’ (thoughts) was a thing to move from. I watched this, and a few other, videos by you yesterday, and chose this one to aid my awareness. It worked. 🕊️🙏🏻💕
@@Keyfer62 yes, absolutely. In the realm of consciousness, thoughts come and go, and its our engagement with them that colors them as positive or negative. We can observe them without judgment, allowing them to be part of the field of experience.
ÒK in theory and I teach this too. But, the subconscious and nervous systems involuntarily kick in. People cannot immediately dismiss years of conditioning.😊
@@utualan oh yes for sure. That’s why I’m saying to have a look rested down in being as much as possible. It’s not about dismissing or denying. It’s about exploring the experience field. That is great that you are able to help people with this😊👍🏼
Suppose you could dream a dream again but this time you KNOW you are dreaming. Would the same (number of) thoughts be there or would there be a massive drop in the number of thoughts because the ego (95% of our thoughts) is seen as illusory?
Hi Collette, In your video you talked about sensing an alert awake intelligence. I don't disagree but doesn't this setup duality? Who is sensing an intelligence apart from you?
@@gregcrandell8325 Hi, yes there is only one thing here and that one thing is experiencing itself. So anything that appears I it,is it. There really is just experience. But no individual experiencer, even the experience of an individual is it. 🤪
@@collettewhiteman Thank you for your response. I currently have many moments throughout the day of no thinking. Only once so far experiencing a presence that brought me into total peace. I guess I need to stay longer and go deeper.
Ma'am As I already realised my true nature and thoughts are not mine(since a week ) thoughts are creating experiences of losing true nature. Thoughts are always putting me , forcing me in seeking true nature. But I am not interested in all these tricks. I am clearly knowing that thoughts are creating experience of losing.
@@venkateshwarlumundrathi-qx4iq Yes just see these type of thoughts as neutral invitations to experience. They have pull without us choosing to identify with them as being ours. We don’t have to push them away, just be disinterested.
@collettewhiteman Ma'am I am feeling sticky at this particular thought which is always saying , shouting as "Thoughts are yours". This shows that thoughts always want an identity , a person to which it belongs.
@@venkateshwarlumundrathi-qx4iq There is the potential to give thoughts more authority than they have. You are the one infinite being expressing uniquely. Thoughts appear in you and are like waves moving in the ocean. We can focus on the deep surrendered depths of self or the dancing waves. 🌊
@@collettewhiteman ma'am once awakening (self realisation )happens from the idea of a me(thought disidentification )is it reversible or irreversible process? Again today I am identifying with thoughts.
@ you have recognised the truth of your being and now it’s to stabilise that recognition. By returning again and again to the truth of what’s actually here, in direct experience. Rather than what’s happening wanting to dance through the conditioned sense of a self.
All is energy. When this is seen and felt causeless smiles and chuckles appear and all is Peace, Love, Joy and Happiness!!

Some thoughts are negative, depressing and destructive and some are positive, uplifting and constructive.

Suppose you could dream a dream again but this time you KNOW you are dreaming.
Would the same (number of) thoughts be there or would there be a massive drop in the number of thoughts because the ego (95% of our thoughts) is seen as illusory?
So if you still have thousands of idle thoughts a day, are you aware or still dreaming (that you are aware)?
