Can direct experience be fully trusted? (Actuality video)

[ItO]

How can I be sure that direct experience or actuality is true ?

What if the direct experience is just something very subjective and biased and you cannot know truth directly. What if the truth is really outside of what I'm capable to directly perceive? What if truth can only be deduced or concluded by some kind of method?

What I'm really talking about is the materialist paradigm really. I'm at a stage that I don't know what is true, to the extent that I can't just "believe" my direct experience. Maybe the materialist view is somehow true after all, although I understand its limitations.

I understand really good all of the concepts. I'm never surprised to hear something in Leo's videos, I always know what is Leo trying to say. I'm aware that all of this is just more concepts and imagination. I'm aware that it is impossible to wrap a mind around it. I'm aware of all the "I"s here.. I'm not sure what am I trying to say or ask.. 

Just seems off, to trust my direct experience like that.. 
Probably I have way more work to do. 

The timing of the videos is always nice, just recently I've started to notice the difference that today's videos is talking about. Suddenly I've become way more quiet and relaxed. Can be very nice to just sit and look around my room for a long time, especially after a run. But what does it all lead to? Am I going to be more relaxed, content, wise, fulfilled? Will I gain more understanding? Is this leading to enlightenment? 

It looks like I can answer my questions myself all the time. This is what preventing me from posting my questions here, so I'm going to post now before it's too late.. 

How can we trust direct experience?

The only Truth is God Awareness.

Thought and Experience are fluxing Maya.  But even with Thought and Experience we can separate what's actually there versus what the Mind takes to be there.  

God is not Thought and Experience.  Leo seems to think that actual Experience without the illusion is God.  I don't think that myself.  God is not Experience.  God is Awareness knowing fully what it is, including knowing that it is not Maya.  God Awareness forgetting who He is and getting lost in Maya is Ego.

@ItO Don't trust anything.

Find what is truth.

Are your doubts truth?

Make the distinction in your direct experience between perception and the truth of whatever is in question.

All of what you mentioned are thoughts. Separate between thought/belief, and direct experience.  Start with “I was born”.
