 I know this belongs to the high consciousness resources section..but i decided to post it here just so it accumulates more views.(So please mods ,keep it here ).

This is a MUST  read .this right here is the highest spirtual teaching you will ever come across. The collected works of Robert Adams.  He used to do Satsangs in california in the 90s . And his students have worded his speeches in a form of a book .

I garuntee you ..Its 1000+ pages but its worth it . If you read this your whole life will flip upside down ..down side up and your understanding of yourself and the answers to the big existential questions will be all finely and finally set to rest . You will have no questions left .

This man is the man in my profile picture btw .

Please download the PDF and read one speech at a time every night and I promise you by the end of it all you will be liberated .

Yeah, that works.

It's a lot of material to comb through before commenting on it meaningfully.

I know . It just gets deleted often after being uploaded by different YT channels. I'm not sure why maybe because his students wage a copyright issue or whatever.

I know it's more than 2000 pages . But it's extremely beneficial.  

BTW are you familiar with him Leo?

Not until now.

I skimmed the PDF and it's pretty standard enlightenment teachings, like dozens I've read before. I have grown sick of this sort of teaching since it gives no real understanding of Consciousness. But if it works for you, great.

Haha OK  whatever floats your boat .  the gist of this teaching though is around liberation from suffering not  understanding reality . So maybe you don't care about that .

 In his view understanding existence has nothing to do with awakening..which is about finding out the truth of what is here and now and not flying off into some ecstatic temporary experience that comes and goes. Truth cannot be something that comes and goes. And ok I know you disagree with this as well so i guess to each his own .

Well, that's a big mistake.

which is about finding out the truth of what is here and now

Truth requires understanding.

That's not the issue. The issue is lack of consciousness and understanding.

Quote

Truth cannot be something that comes and goes.

Everything that comes and goes is Truth, but there is way more to Awakening and God than that.

Don't assume that your guy comprehends God. He's parroting a lot of boilerplate nonduality, which he learned from following some other guy like himself without question, which you will now repeat. And on the chain of human spiritual ignorance goes. God is way more profound and advanced than all that.

But I appreciate you sharing this document. It has its place.

You are really funny  today .everyone has learned whatever they learned from some source outside themselves.  Besides your own awakenings..didnt you read spiritual material?  How come I'm speaking English right now when I'm indian ? Didn't i had to learn it from someone else ? Isnt that how all knowledge is derived?

For a liberated person like him ..god doesnt matter in the slightest.  What would understanding God do to you?  If it won't make you happy then really what good is it ?

and yes he was a devotee of Ramana Maharshi .he learned a  lot from him. Just like how you learned a lot from Peter Ralston .

The only way you will know is to know what it is that he was attempting to point to.but you seem closed minded and you don't want to give it a chance to read him  unlike me I can follow Robert's teachings without getting sidetracked by his personal teachings and ignore other spiritual teachings like yours .

There is no problem reading spiritual stuff. Some of that is necessary.

This misses the whole beauty of Awakening.

The difference is I went beyond all that.

I know things this guy could not imagine.

I did just read him to see the gist of it.

Nothing wrong with reading him.

@Leo Gura OK Leo I understand your perspective.  Thanks for the convo .🙏

[Vynce]

@Leo Gura By the way, have you ever actually explained, why you are biased towards truth? 
I mean it’s a pretty rare and strange bias. Especially since it doesn’t serve any survival bias. Not even that of a Guru. 

Do you even know the reason for yourself?

Because understanding existence is the only thing that has any importance.

@Leo Gura I feel the same way and It is hard to get why others don't experiencing It this way too. It doesnt make any sense to me why would you not dedícate your Life to truth.

Yeah, but epistemically, where does this importance for you come from?

Do you think it’s just in your genes, or can others tap into this importance as well? 

How many people out of a 100.000 you think are biased towards pure truth?

Because as Leo said truth can be dangerous. And it can even threaten your survival seriously. So is it worth? You don't know

It comes from a consciousness of the miracle that is existence.

Don't know.

Certainly genetics is a factor because a chimpanzee has no appreciation of existence. But I don't know about whether a typical human is lacking the genetics or is just so brainwashed and mindless.
