I live this talk! So down to earth and simple. No mystical mumbo jumbo just straight forward logical sensible life advice 🙏 i really hope kunal found some help and relief for his depression, its heart breaking to see somebody suffering like that he seems a nice gentle soul
The idea of destiny and worthless-ness of free will is certainly hard to accept. But this acceptance ultimately translates to the act of Surrender (which Ramesh ji also talks about here). What i understand is that Surrender is the way in which the sense of personal doer-ship dissolves and actions are done in a flow in which there is no conscious thought. The severe pain of psychological afflictions like depression is very genuine and i donot yet understand how spiritual insight can deal with that. I suffer from depression too, at times very powerful. What may be considered here is that Suicide is committed in a heightened state of Ego in which the Self pronounces that the pain is unbearable and inescapable. And if the Ego is to be completely dropped and surrendered, then the identification with forces of depression will cease. I admit that i struggle to internalize this beyond mere intellectual understanding. But in my mind, i keep returning to the idea of not identifying with my Ego.
@Cowzah I once suffered from depression as well and I think you are correct about the possibility that the depressive thought patterns can be dropped/surrendered. One day, it suddenly happened within me. Terrible spiraling thoughts about low worth, no hope, no answers and then, suddenly... a new thought came. "What if I just didn't desire anything anymore?" But it wasn't dropping the desire for life, it was more like dropping the mental story of my life. The story my ego was repeating about unmet desires and hopelessness was was just dropped, suddenly. It was like my consciousness just lost interest in the story of "myself" and dropped it.
I went through the same and this teaching works you just have to keep at it go as deep as you can, wisdom takes time to sink in the system, years, but you will have learnet the most precious thing inlife after you get it. do not make any effort, just go deep, also check other spiritualities to have a better understanding, be curious and it will come. Open the hand of thoughts, be aware of them slowly but surely; they are the cause of depression and pain in the body.
I feel the same way. I've been following these teachings as well as the "direct, non-dual" approach for years. I've been meditating (I think) for hours every day for 14 years. Yet I am now as depressed as I've ever been. I sleep as much as possible and have no inspiration or motivation to cook, clean, get a job, make friends, etc. I exercise physically which helps me to feel fairly good much of the time, but then the dark thoughts arise again. I thought it was clear that there was "no one" here and that free will was an illusion. Now I feel like I've been fooling myself all this time. I am just a person. I feel like the doer no matter how clearly I see intellectually that I am not. I think it's time for me to admit failure and just go back to living as if conditions could bring me satisfaction. I'm cooked.
I am not the doer; accept the certain fact that life is uncertainty; and go with flow: knowing and accepting this, and changing my attitude towards life and 'the other', brings peace. That is enlightenment! Thank you, Rameshji!
Its interesting because if u are not the doer, the experiencer, you separate yourself from the act. But all conflict has its root on separation/division. It feels like everything is ONE, and if thats so, how can we separate ourselves from the ONENESS? It feels like its the our EGO MIND that separates us from everything thats why suffering happens. If everything is the same, we will always BE everything, we are the actions, we are thoughts, we are the trees, we are the people around us, we are the world, we are CONSCIOUSNESS which gathers everything in existence.
Being sensitive will generate a field of presence in which you can observe through attention everything happening spontaneously. The more sensitive you are the more field will generate. Just be aware of that and watch everything with all your senses. That’s the real fate or realization and you don’t need spiritual hocus-pocus because that’s a natural state for human beings. Don’t think about just watch with all your senses.

And he was razor sharp. When I was in the hot seat and was so unclear and yet he asked questions in such a way to bring about true communication. Sat with him for 3 weeks, 21 years ago. An absolute blessings. Christ Ramesh.
@@michaelmcclure3383 What creation ? Exactly where the will of God applies. If there be no creation where the will of God will apply and on to whom ? Sir, Nagarjuna says, that it is impossible to know the higher truth without knowing the lower truth. So, first learn to swim before abandoning the boat.
@@michaelmcclure3383 I am not sure whether the teaching of Sh Ramesh is of Karmyoga. Because in my understanding karmayoga implies the voluntary action with no end result in sight, which is certainly not the case in his teaching. Moreover, for karmyoga there has to be an element of doership (in early phase), which completely misses in his teachings. Fact remains, and that is based on first hand individual experience, that mere knowledge does not remove the conditioning of mind or past habits. It can be concurred only through practice. As long as mind is under the influence of Gunas it will be bound to react according to its composition of Gunas. Without practice even if there is knowledge, the composition of Gunas can't be changed. So Bhakti or surrender is culmination of the Karmyoga or in other words bhakti/ surrender shall be incomplete unless it has passed though the path of Karmyoga.
@@michaelmcclure3383 The moment Krishna says that one has only right to act means that one is free to act. Who is free to act of course the ego, I. If one can't act why will he ask Arjuna to act ? Think ! The moment you lose the sense of doership or sense of I you become the Lord Krishna Himself. There remains no separation between Him and you. You are just narrating the final truth but the fact is that this state has to be acquired in order to realize which in turn passes from the sense of doership and finally becoming not a doer. Mere stating intellectually that I am not the doer will not do good.
@@michaelmcclure3383 You are right. The enlightened sages identify with the body but fully understand that they are not the doer. My point is that this realization of not being the doer is not an intellectual understanding. The sense of doership falls automatically if one pursues the path of Karmayoga as its culmination. Here lies the catch. You referred Raman Maharshi who got enlightenment in very early age but to make that understanding and realization seeps through his being and remain steady he practiced sadhana for decades. And this is what I am trying to highlight. Unless the mind becomes fully sattvic it will never be steady with the realization even if one happens to get.
Don't see what is brilliant or so clear in the conversation. The conversation only raises questions and answers none. A man can't live even for a moment without an action, and what one does depends on his/ her prakriti (Gunas) , which in turn is the result of his past and present lives/ karmas (samskaras), this in turn depends how one lives and acts every moment and the eagerness she/ he shows every moment in knowing himself and also the purpose of life. Polio was incurable sometimes before but not now and this was possible because the effort and the will of the mankind. You can't say that earlier God had the will to make human suffer through polio but now He has changed his mind and now He wishes that no one should suffer from this disease called polio. Moreover, will you tell me why someone suffer and some enjoys if one can't do good or bad ?
@chandankumar-lk9kr clear as a bell. It's between the words in the infinite gap between all perceptions, thoughts. Don't listen through your mind and you will be taken to direct experience where his meaning lies.
@@lynlavalight I fully agree. Truth can't be perceived by mind and therefore mind has to be transcended. But here lies, what I call the Sadhana, practice, nidhidhyasana etc. to bring mind under control and not think that mind will come under control if it is the will of the God. All spirituality in essence teaches how to control the mind or transcend this mind which obstruct us from seeing the truth.
First find peace, be in peace with youre highs and downs. In that peace you will find something called happyness. When you seek happyness the seeking of happyness itself will be the problem. Find peace, be in peace with youre hate, fear, pleasure etc. so that isnt importand what arises in you. Then there is peace
@@religionofpeace782 sorry iam german, i try my best. Sometimes its Not so easy, we write Happy, and then i think you write happyness because in German we Take Double for short, ness, but yeah, i think happines is the Thing you mean or i mean 😅
Are you really free? The most intense freedom I experienced Was when Jesus set met free. Try praying. Thinking that there is no God is some what like slavery. If there is something greater than pure truth and absolute love, then go and seek. But why seek for more of Jesus can give us everything we need.
@guitarszen at the same time you are the BODY which goes through the experience of illusion of free will, you are the SOUL which is free from the illusion of free will n simply witness the drama with complete acceptance (Surrendered to the will of GOD), You are the GOD who is FREE... -VEDANTA 🙏🙂
True Master ! How Sir ? Because, now you can say that the reason for your abject failure was not the lack of any effort on your part but God's will ? Or in his teaching you have got the license to sit idle and do nothing ?
You are completely right from your point of view and where you stand. My statement in the OP probably came from my Ego as well! It’s all play of thoughts anyways!
Depression is curable.... depression is our thoughts from the past... anxiety is from future....the power remains in now. Correcting the eating habits and swaying away from sugar and carbs ,eating veggies help... Long fasting work wonders..add b vitamins in the diet
Don't need to change your diet at all. Just change your mind by seeking the same non-dual path pointed at by people like Shankara and Buddah in the past.
- живот се састоји од жеља и могућности - ако лимитираш жеље на могућности увијек је живот лијеп - ако те савладају жеље а мало могућности увијек се пати - дакле - дешава се ма што но имамо вјеру тако да што би да би _ не бринеш него уживаш живот у вјери са вјером ослони се на вјеру ИСУСА на вјеровања добрих "великих људи и жена" _ *_"права молитва, чврста молитва кључ за све"_* _ угодан дан - сваки дан је задњи дан а многи од нас неће ни доживјети сутрашњи дан - хоће се казати живи сваки дан вјеру за вјечност и добро ће бити _ кад се бавиш промашеном вјером ни одоговора свих немаш - и тада доживљаваш живот као патњу _ како наћи циљ живота у вјери без циља - та не можеш јер га нема и онда живот и глуп изгледа _ што више тражиш све више пустоши срећеш - што се више питаш све мање одговора имаш
Nothing is pre determined. Only acceptance will liberate us. Once we accept we are able to ride the waves of experiences. The knowing of being is happiness. common name is "i" In religious terms is god.
I am amused by all the comments from people offering their wisdom. This is reflective of how the ego makes one feel as if he is an expert or awakened. When you see what there is to see there is little to talk about or to prove to anyone else.
yes, another possibility to develop compassion, most beings have not arrived at the experience of a Ramesh and are only regurgitating, this in order to comfort their poor lack of esteem and to suffer a little less 🙏🙂
Society call his or her action.. But as all have free will but not control in results of action.. So.. Nothing of results, which society think his or her action.. Is actually his/ her action
While the philosophy is good, religion, Bhakti is good, it is also important to seek thetspy( cognitive behavioral therapy) along with medications. Depression is not imaginary, it’s like diabetes or hypertension. It involves neurotransmitters. I heard one gentleman here talk about depression. Please get help. Just like ur body needs vitamins, food, u have to seek help for depression!🙏
Great point! And that does not contradict what he’s saying here either. As I know you did not imply :-) Sometimes this human form needs help in order to feel better and continue to show compassion to others. However, I think the key is to just except that this is true. I myself suffer with bipolar and depression, and through these teachings and many others I recognize that I can’t feel sorry for myself, or will it away. I do what I can for my body because this is the reality in which I live. Everything is in God’s perfect will and I ask for that will every day. Sometimes minute by minute!
41:00 his conclusion is that unhappiness comes from rivalry. This is not true in my experience. I have no rivalries and the best intentions, yet I am not happy. Also he is wrong about genes. We 𝑑𝑜 have control over our genes. I think in this talk, especially with the person at 1:08:30 he makes the mistake of "for a man with a hammer, every problem looks like a nail". Totally not helpful for the guy, but I assume he gives answers/this talk to be of service. Anyway, he has some good points. For me, free will is a very good illusion and it doesnt help philosophizing about it - what's the point? Yes, God acts through us and yes we do have different possibilities of acting but this is also highly limited by a lot of factors. I like to think in terms of 'we have a certain degree 0 < x < 100 of free will', strictly not 0 and strictly not 100%, and even if it was 0 or 100: it doesnt matter.
I was about to amazed then I thought, his teaching is pure determinism and I don't know if I agree with him. I don't believe in God, or I question what is so called God ? Totality of pre determined rules ?
I don't believe in any god either but "god" is the ethno-geographical arrangement for "cosmic law" ... which is a force to be able to imagine and invent.... sexuality, for example and so many more wonders
Pain is exacerbated and prolonged by the label “ pain “. Thus: I am in pain. I think that the pain validates the me as real, and is therefore unconsciously propagated.
God first t will us to suffer. We all have consequences for the karmas we did in this life & several past lives. Hence we r born w certain genes, into certain families & certain conditions. Please get help for depression or for any other condition/ any troubles while also involved in Bhakthi, seeking forgiveness, seeking understanding. God will always help us with strength to bear the consequences of our karma as well as mitigate it. He will decrease a bad karma from a snake bite to an ant bite for example. When ur body & mind is not an ok e to deal w certain things, please care for it. Feed the body, mind & spirit. It’s not just mind & spirit alone. Take care of ur biological self too.
Indirect stoic philosophy, well, a lot of it is! And nihilism, the acceptance of the absurd, and meaninglessness and purposelessness! Hmmmmmm loved it, is love the right word....doesn't matter, doesn't matter at all!
We are eternal beings stuck in these bodies because we are supposed to improve life as we can see it for other lifeforms, including us. We evolved meta awareness for this end.
@MrPierrefeu as long as there's death and suffering at the hands of sociopaths that run the world, what in the name of Christ kind of joy might you have?
life is what you say it is no depression no chance of reaching enlightenment no chance of meeting Ramesh Balsekar the solution he gives to Kunal : to think of all those millions of suffering people who are in a worse situation than him is in fact, THE crucial question of time and eternally of any time, that Bouddha and so many others , Jesus had raised 2023 years ago the ability , or not, to put ourself in the shoes of others to see the other as another yourself when you are obsessed, hypnotised with your own suffering you cannot see the beauty, or the suffering of others : this is the challenge of compassion which is increasingly lacking in our societies of individualized and forceful productivism... especially excuse me, but among rich people I will not want to be displaced and clumsy but with the lovely companion that he has even I !!! which , who am I a pure saint like goat's yogurt detached from earthly circumstances... would like to be in his place ... even if there are not together , When Asia speaks, all the guys are "enlightened" ☺🙏🙏 😊 joking aside, from Kunal's body posture it would seem that you have anger to express, to channel and, according to the will of cosmic law... it is she who can help you emerge from your depression, using it because it is your vital energy, stuck prana, blocked, so hit the drums Kunal !!! Participate to the universe DANCE
As an Advaita master Ramesh is, I wonder why he did not talk about the the practice of deidentification from the pain and let the pain be the agent of awakening from identification of the animated corpse of dirt and water and guide this fellow's stand as the Witness of the pain etc..mind boggling to me really
Summary 1. Everything happens as per God’s Will. 2. Develop attitude towards life as well as others by understanding that you are not doer and so no human being should have guilt for one’s action and hatred for others for others action. 3. This will give you peace of mind and ultimately happiness. Continued……

Even Physicists are saying freewill is an illusion. I think the Superpower that has created the Universe, has already scripted every bit of action that goes on in it and created beings like us only to act out the Script.
Are there two bodies and minds? One automatic - biological with its own instinctual- gene logic and one conditioned - programmed by social environment? Is that what the master says?
No, life is NOT a prison. You are free my friend, you god and you (god) created this place, not as prison. But as an experience we can say, not to imprison itself (maybe it has been like/looking like that, the past, couple of 1000s years.) BUT IT IS NOT FACT.

Does it feel like heaven for them? Maybe for the Predator, maybe it really enjoys it, maybe not. And definitely not for the pray, yet, the moment later, relaxing with its kids, can feel like fulfillment/heaven for that animal. And living in the consciousness of Pray Predator, is not nice or aka Fight or Flight. Yet we have the ability to turn into light and love right here and right now. We have, i have at least 0 ideas what will happen when my body dies. So why not enjoy and appreciate everything as a gift? Instead of living in the fear, or worry that you are in a prison? You are not ^ You are life itself, experiencing life itself from your avatar ^ What you do with it or not, is ur choice. Didnt Shiva live in bliss most of the time? (Cant remember) How can bliss and prison be one? The recognition that you are not the body nor the mind, free's your awareness, according to them, ur are now free from coming back, becouse you realize you were never really the one here. There is no one inside your body. There is no one here, yet, the one that manifest as the observer, is the same observer behind all things. From nothing to what looks like something. Yet no separation, the body is ur buddy and its part of your experience. But its not you. You dont have to do anything really

Thank you for again uploading this of guru ji ❤
Of fine, but will you tell me why are you so elated. Have you found who you are or have you discovered the secret of creation ?
@@michaelmcclure3383 What creation ? Exactly where the will of God applies. If there be no creation where the will of God will apply and on to whom ? Sir, Nagarjuna says, that it is impossible to know the higher truth without knowing the lower truth. So, first learn to swim before abandoning the boat.
@@michaelmcclure3383 I am not sure whether the teaching of Sh Ramesh is of Karmyoga. Because in my understanding karmayoga implies the voluntary action with no end result in sight, which is certainly not the case in his teaching. Moreover, for karmyoga there has to be an element of doership (in early phase), which completely misses in his teachings. Fact remains, and that is based on first hand individual experience, that mere knowledge does not remove the conditioning of mind or past habits. It can be concurred only through practice. As long as mind is under the influence of Gunas it will be bound to react according to its composition of Gunas. Without practice even if there is knowledge, the composition of Gunas can't be changed. So Bhakti or surrender is culmination of the Karmyoga or in other words bhakti/ surrender shall be incomplete unless it has passed though the path of Karmyoga.
@@michaelmcclure3383 The moment Krishna says that one has only right to act means that one is free to act. Who is free to act of course the ego, I. If one can't act why will he ask Arjuna to act ? Think !
The moment you lose the sense of doership or sense of I you become the Lord Krishna Himself. There remains no separation between Him and you. You are just narrating the final truth but the fact is that this state has to be acquired in order to realize which in turn passes from the sense of doership and finally becoming not a doer. Mere stating intellectually that I am not the doer will not do good.
@@michaelmcclure3383 You are right. The enlightened sages identify with the body but fully understand that they are not the doer. My point is that this realization of not being the doer is not an intellectual understanding. The sense of doership falls automatically if one pursues the path of Karmayoga as its culmination. Here lies the catch. You referred Raman Maharshi who got enlightenment in very early age but to make that understanding and realization seeps through his being and remain steady he practiced sadhana for decades. And this is what I am trying to highlight. Unless the mind becomes fully sattvic it will never be steady with the realization even if one happens to get.
Brilliant! Clarity. Thank you.
Don't see what is brilliant or so clear in the conversation. The conversation only raises questions and answers none. A man can't live even for a moment without an action, and what one does depends on his/ her prakriti (Gunas) , which in turn is the result of his past and present lives/ karmas (samskaras), this in turn depends how one lives and acts every moment and the eagerness she/ he shows every moment in knowing himself and also the purpose of life. Polio was incurable sometimes before but not now and this was possible because the effort and the will of the mankind. You can't say that earlier God had the will to make human suffer through polio but now He has changed his mind and now He wishes that no one should suffer from this disease called polio. Moreover, will you tell me why someone suffer and some enjoys if one can't do good or bad ?
@chandankumar-lk9kr clear as a bell. It's between the words in the infinite gap between all perceptions, thoughts. Don't listen through your mind and you will be taken to direct experience where his meaning lies.
@@lynlavalight I fully agree. Truth can't be perceived by mind and therefore mind has to be transcended. But here lies, what I call the Sadhana, practice, nidhidhyasana etc. to bring mind under control and not think that mind will come under control if it is the will of the God. All spirituality in essence teaches how to control the mind or transcend this mind which obstruct us from seeing the truth.
First find peace, be in peace with youre highs and downs. In that peace you will find something called happyness. When you seek happyness the seeking of happyness itself will be the problem. Find peace, be in peace with youre hate, fear, pleasure etc. so that isnt importand what arises in you. Then there is peace
What is happyness? Never heard of this word before

He was the master.
A master
Rameshji speak from round @2:30+ @5:49 IMP MSG/Q!!!!
wonderful questions.
so so true!
Kunal does not seems to be convinced, hope he is alive & happy.
He's not at all hypocrite, n he's very simple n to the point sharing his understandings, concepts.... , again by the will of God! 🙂🙏
Are you really free? The most intense freedom I experienced Was when Jesus set met free. Try praying. Thinking that there is no God is some what like slavery. If there is something greater than pure truth and absolute love, then go and seek. But why seek for more of Jesus can give us everything we need.
@guitarszen at the same time
you are the BODY which goes through the experience of illusion of free will,
you are the SOUL which is free from the illusion of free will n simply witness the drama with complete acceptance (Surrendered to the will of GOD),
You are the GOD who is FREE...

@@owrah2198 you are right 🙏🙂
Any update on Kunar ?
True master!
True Master ! How Sir ? Because, now you can say that the reason for your abject failure was not the lack of any effort on your part but God's will ? Or in his teaching you have got the license to sit idle and do nothing ?
You are completely right from your point of view and where you stand. My statement in the OP probably came from my Ego as well! It’s all play of thoughts anyways!
There is no failing nor success only a concept within the ego ' God is in you and outside of uou '

Depression is curable.... depression is our thoughts from the past... anxiety is from future....the power remains in now.
Correcting the eating habits and swaying away from sugar and carbs ,eating veggies help... Long fasting work wonders..add b vitamins in the diet
Don't need to change your diet at all. Just change your mind by seeking the same non-dual path pointed at by people like Shankara and Buddah in the past.
B-Vitamins are for brain health and i take them by myself. Very good.
Brain and mind are two different things. What you said works for the brain. The Mind needs different nutrition called spirituality
Multivitamin works for the brain. Have twice a day. Amla ka juice is also good for the brain. Have it only once. ESP in the morning before sunrise.

Brilliant!💜
Nothing is pre determined. Only acceptance will liberate us. Once we accept we are able to ride the waves of experiences. The knowing of being is happiness. common name is "i" In religious terms is god.
We must do better in this time to have elevation next life time,the spirit lives on if we allow God's will.
I am amused by all the comments from people offering their wisdom. This is reflective of how the ego makes one feel as if he is an expert or awakened. When you see what there is to see there is little to talk about or to prove to anyone else.
I'm amused by the people actually listening to this guy.
And ur doing the same thing they are by calling them out on it inferencing that you have a higher spiritual perspective
@@Bhagavan_Josiahhaha funny!
@@jasonbourne4784don’t worry it’s not their free will to choose. Haha.
yes, another possibility to develop compassion, most beings have not arrived at the experience of a Ramesh and are only regurgitating, this in order to comfort their poor lack of esteem and to suffer a little less 🙏🙂
Y E S
Nice ..
sending love to Kunal
So everything randomly predetermined …and i should accept it¿how is it accepting power
Society call his or her action..
But as all have free will but not control in results of action..
So..
Nothing of results, which society think his or her action.. Is actually his/ her action

In Bhagavat Geeta Shri Krishna says to aquire 16 Divine qualities. Daivi Gunas. Please 🙏 respond to this question
While the philosophy is good, religion, Bhakti is good, it is also important to seek thetspy( cognitive behavioral therapy) along with medications.
Depression is not imaginary, it’s like diabetes or hypertension. It involves neurotransmitters. I heard one gentleman here talk about depression. Please get help.
Just like ur body needs vitamins, food, u have to seek help for depression!🙏
Great point! And that does not contradict what he’s saying here either. As I know you did not imply :-)
Sometimes this human form needs help in order to feel better and continue to show compassion to others. However, I think the key is to just except that this is true. I myself suffer with bipolar and depression, and through these teachings and many others I recognize that I can’t feel sorry for myself, or will it away. I do what I can for my body because this is the reality in which I live.
Everything is in God’s perfect will and I ask for that will every day. Sometimes minute by minute!
41:00 his conclusion is that unhappiness comes from rivalry. This is not true in my experience. I have no rivalries and the best intentions, yet I am not happy.
Also he is wrong about genes. We 𝑑𝑜 have control over our genes. I think in this talk, especially with the person at 1:08:30 he makes the mistake of "for a man with a hammer, every problem looks like a nail". Totally not helpful for the guy, but I assume he gives answers/this talk to be of service. Anyway, he has some good points. For me, free will is a very good illusion and it doesnt help philosophizing about it - what's the point? Yes, God acts through us and yes we do have different possibilities of acting but this is also highly limited by a lot of factors. I like to think in terms of 'we have a certain degree 0 < x < 100 of free will', strictly not 0 and strictly not 100%, and even if it was 0 or 100: it doesnt matter.
the question is not to believe in free will or not, but to know why we don't do what we would like to do
❤❤🙏
I was about to amazed then I thought, his teaching is pure determinism and I don't know if I agree with him. I don't believe in God, or I question what is so called God ? Totality of pre determined rules ?
I don't believe in any god either but "god" is the ethno-geographical arrangement for "cosmic law" ... which is a force to be able to imagine and invent.... sexuality, for example and so many more wonders
@@basourdi Hımmm I wouldn't call it as law but yeah I think I get it. 🙏🏻
Pain is exacerbated and prolonged by the label “ pain “. Thus: I am in pain. I think that the pain validates the me as real, and is therefore unconsciously propagated.
Wonderful
But you cannot will it unless God wills: for, behold, God is indeed all-seeing, wise Quran 76:30
God first t will us to suffer. We all have consequences for the karmas we did in this life & several past lives. Hence we r born w certain genes, into certain families & certain conditions. Please get help for depression or for any other condition/ any troubles while also involved in Bhakthi, seeking forgiveness, seeking understanding. God will always help us with strength to bear the consequences of our karma as well as mitigate it. He will decrease a bad karma from a snake bite to an ant bite for example. When ur body & mind is not an ok e to deal w certain things, please care for it. Feed the body, mind & spirit. It’s not just mind & spirit alone. Take care of ur biological self too.
Finally! Found the real master Oogway ❤
Even tho I agree to an extent such videos are dangerous!! Yes life is imprisonment but one must try to befriend life than to surrender like a fool.

LIFE IS A PRIVELEGE ACTUALLY.
We are eternal beings stuck in these bodies because we are supposed to improve life as we can see it for other lifeforms, including us. We evolved meta awareness for this end.
we are supposed to improve joy
@MrPierrefeu as long as there's death and suffering at the hands of sociopaths that run the world, what in the name of Christ kind of joy might you have?
Is he byrd
life is what you say it is
no depression no chance of reaching enlightenment no chance of meeting Ramesh Balsekar
the solution he gives to Kunal : to think of all those millions of suffering people who are in a worse situation than him is in fact, THE crucial question of time and eternally of any time,
that Bouddha and so many others
, Jesus had raised 2023 years ago
the ability , or not, to put ourself in the shoes of others
to see the other as another yourself
when you are obsessed, hypnotised with your own suffering you cannot see the beauty, or the suffering of others :
this is the challenge of compassion
which is increasingly lacking in our societies of individualized and forceful productivism... especially excuse me, but among rich people
I will not want to be displaced and clumsy but with the lovely companion that he has even I !!!
which , who am I a pure saint like goat's yogurt detached from earthly circumstances... would like to be in his place
... even if there are not together ,
When Asia speaks, all the guys are "enlightened"
☺🙏🙏 😊
joking aside, from Kunal's body posture it would seem that you have anger to express, to channel and, according to the will of cosmic law... it is she who can help you emerge from your depression, using it because it is your vital energy, stuck prana, blocked,
so hit the drums Kunal !!!

I'm not boggled. This guy is fake.
Why use philosophy when you can explain in simpler way of psychology which they also don't seem to understand?

symposium on delusions
Summary 1. Everything happens as per God’s Will. 2. Develop attitude towards life as well as others by understanding that you are not doer and so no human being should have guilt for one’s action and hatred for others for others action. 3. This will give you peace of mind and ultimately happiness. Continued……

This means we are puppets in God’s hand.
Even Physicists are saying freewill is an illusion. I think the Superpower that has created the Universe, has already scripted every bit of action that goes on in it and created beings like us only to act out the Script.
it can be very relaxing 🙂
@@basourdiIt can work either ways.
Yes and the ultimate god might be enslaved to its own essence too
Are there two bodies and minds? One automatic - biological with its own instinctual- gene logic and one conditioned - programmed by social environment? Is that what the master says?

If what he is saying is true with that much certainty, then there's no room for invention and innovation.
if you say it
No, life is NOT a prison.
You are free my friend, you god and you (god) created this place, not as prison. But as an experience we can say, not to imprison itself (maybe it has been like/looking like that, the past, couple of 1000s years.)

Does it feel like heaven for them? Maybe for the Predator, maybe it really enjoys it, maybe not. And definitely not for the pray, yet, the moment later, relaxing with its kids, can feel like fulfillment/heaven for that animal.
And living in the consciousness of Pray Predator, is not nice or aka Fight or Flight. Yet we have the ability to turn into light and love right here and right now.
