It's also in "Letting Go" and "Transcending the levels of consciousness".

@TruthSoldier The deepest insights are not necessarily translated into the best teachings. It can still show the communication skills of the teacher just not it's usefulness.

@Vibroverse You, as in the human being want other neighbours but God's will is that you have the neighbours you have. That might change of course but until it does all there is is to let go of your desire to have other neighbours and surrender to God's will.

No problem. ? What you said made sense. I just haven't heard it that way before.

So fear is afraid to not be afraid because that will be the death of you and fear is afraid of death?

@RMQualtrough Nice introspecting going on. ? In which ways are these interpretations and resistances stopped?

@Dulinho Beautiful! ?

Why is that?

Just continue your practice and the realization will stabilize after a while.

The single most influencing teacher. Definitely Adyashanti. 2nd most is Gangaji.

@Salvijus Really interesting discussion you brewed up here. Would you say that pain and suffering is the same thing or do you differentiate the two? And Is there a difference between a bodily fear i.e when falling and fear that occurs when thinking of a snake?

@thenondualtankie What if you knew that you someday had to go under the boulder and sometimes you start thinking of going under the boulder and each time you start to feel fear about it. What then would happen if you avoid going under the boulder?

@Consilience Thank you for taking time to write this. I do feel the same way that it can become a big trap for many people. The ego can easily hide within the neo advaita message and thus creating a huge blind spot. This could be a projection. Of course you have to look for yourself to see if that is the case.

@Endangered-EGO You do that which feels true intuitively and meet the resistances that the mind/body is creating about doing those things.

Ignorance

It's impossible to reach enlightenment because it's a figment of our imagination.

@liliacvine Have you noticed how we can't change our experience and that resisting it is futile?

What is there to say about it anyway

@Nadosa Thank you for sharing your story and sorry your going through such a rough time. Awakening is no joke. It sure brings out every little drop of suffering in us until there's nothing left. Isn't it funny how we can go from being totally emerged in the suffering to clarity and seeing it as a delusion in an instance? Sometimes we can get stuck in a place inbetween delusion and clarity where we see the delusions as delusions yet we resist/supress them because they are to painful to see fully. Which make them persist. When we let them run it's course without trying to manipulate them the energy which they are based on starts to fall away. Have you tried to journal about this? This can be a tool for this energy to express itself fully without any suppressing/resisting happening.

It's good for finding good parking places if you ask Adyashanti. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGKWnv2mDbU

@RMQualtrough ? The "enlightened" self is also let go of. The enlightened identity is not yet enlightenment.

@WokeBloke Everything in your experience can divided into seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting, smelling and thought. SEEING of the sentence takes place. Recognition of what the sentence means and what to respond. (THOUGHT) THOUGHT can appear as sound. Self talk (THOUGHT) can often have a sound like quality. Can also be in form of pictures or a movie. Can speaking happen without THOUGHT. Can HEARING take place without the mind trying to interpret it? I urge you to explore this. ? Said as sound (HEARING) or within the mind (THOUGHT).

Truth has no agenda so being truthful and honest can be a really powerful practice. Truth is already here. This moment is Truth so my advice is to start examining what it consist of That's good. It's a powerful realisation to realize you don't know anything. Something that might be worth examining is the energy of needing and wanting to know the truth, truth is already here so what is there really to know about it?

@Someone here Illusion is simply something appearing to be something that it is not. A mirage appears to be an oasis in the desert but it's only a mirage of an oasis. There seems to be a separate self called @Someone here but it was only identification to the sense perceptions. There seems to be a car but it just is without any definitions. These mirages appears within reality as reality and when reality wakes up they are seen for what they are, mirages.

Hm kinda sounds like a script doesn't it? ? Creator and creating is a duality. The creator is an illusion.
