Yes, that's exactly what Emerson is doing, helping people to tap into what's already and always the case. In my opinion normie probably refers to someone religious or purely scientific. You know the people who think we are nuts. I have heard other nondual speakers (who also use Emerson's approach) say, that more and more people are somehow coming for one on one's, who have no background in spirituality as such. ie the line of questioning is effective in getting most people to see through the illusionary nature of mind, and thus the sense of a separate me. But you right, the lines are blurring with the normie definition, because for example so many people are trying psychedelics these days etc. The one question of Emerson in particular that I like are the Inbetween questions: What's between doing and not doing, what's between acceptance and rejection, what's between empty and not empty, what's between mind and no mind etc. (He has loads of one on one sessions on his channel, pretty cool to watch minds popping.)

@Carl-Richard lets say a normie was curious about this nonduality stuff, which inquiry questions would you use to let them see through the illusion of the sense of a separate me ?

Not so sure about that, who else have you seen working in this specific way with people ? The way that he is sharing this (lifting the veil of language) is actually allowing normies to 'get it' as well. Thats quite revolutionary me thinks. Did you watch the full 5min clip ?

Watch minute 6 to around minute 11, of the video in the OP. That was the main intention with this thread. Emerson has somehow found a way to make this stuff accessible for normies as well.

All words were made up by someone we never met concepts already empty.

Beautiful

Right now, all spirituality concepts just feel like stories.

Exactly. I'll just shut up now😄

Pretty cool stuff, he tells a story where a cab driver asked what he did, so they started chatting about his youtube channel etc, dude 'got it' right there. He's found a way to make this accessible even to normies🙂

Thanks, you too, took some time for integration😊 found something interesting in the mean time, (see post in spirituality section titled "radical nonduality 2.0) Blessings to you, i wanna say sister, but that would make you sound like a nun😄

Aha, no gap, no distance, no knower

This sounds exactly like Jim

@James123 Why don't you like the word Infinity ?

Feels like all knowledge collapses

So, that's a bit of a joke, isn't it ?

Doesn't it become something when it manifests as physicality
