Hi, Joe. Thanks for sharing. I was sober for a few days there but I relapsed today. My dealer had a new shipment come in and I couldn't resist. He said it would make me happy. He lied, again. Maybe I'll try a more trustworthy dealer?
Just came back to this one after several months, and what struck me was the transmission of love and compassion from you, Angelo. Maybe it was just that I was more tuned into presence this time and that’s what’s there when we let go of thought. Either way, I sometimes get blown away by the compassion with which you make these videos. More than instructions, they are clearly an act of love. ❤❤❤
One thing that I have found fascinating throughout this is how much more freedom there is not being bound in time and yet you can still plan. I find myself having to use my reminders app a lot but everything just flows so perfectly without resistance. It's hard to explain.
5:44 bro I don't think I ever asked to be put in the time game, so the present moment is really avoiding itself. I'd love to live there (not that I don't), but the gravitational pull of the mind is so big. I mean I experience the thing the attention sits on primarily and it sits in the mind. I feel this changing and there's an easier access to the present, like the more I sit there the more it's pronounced, but still
Thanks so much Angelo for uploading daily. It's like a knife that cuts the tether to the mind. The tether reconstitutes but is more and more frayed each day. Distractions (food, media, porn, tinder) all are seen through as simply not working. Why do I hold onto my pain when I know by letting go of it I will realise what I'm looking for? Why do I continue to make myself suffer when I know it's not necessary? I must still be getting something out of being a victim. Is it because I don't want to fully feel the pain? Is it because I'll have to let go of resentment? Is it because I'll have to let go of knowing and being right? What is it? Why create suffering for myself?
Am I addicted to suffering? Am I addicted to pain? Have I fully identified with my pain, whereby letting it go, feels like letting go of myself? What is it about myself that knows no pain? What is it about myself that does not suffer? Am I the pain? What is pain made of?
That's what a mentor told me: no conclusions. But then I talk with tony parsons and he seems to land at a conclusion. I'll call him tomorrow and ask him. Is there a conclusion? Is there a fucking tony parsons? Who am I asking? Lol. Genuinely grateful that my path hasn't included complete insanity. Feel for those people, they must be on the edge of their minds and instead of having someone help push them off the edge, they have an authority tell them they are insane. Tragic.
watching people ask you questions, is a nice exercise/passion to pause when the question is given. then to wait for the answer within me and let myself burn and burn and burn as a contraction in the chest area, feeling love first. then waiting for the answer to arise out of nothing. then playing your answer and then feeling the union feeling the oneness and learning more about myself and you
"Just let everything go on" is a good reminder. It's becoming obvious that trying to hold or create a story just slows whatever processing is going on. There's a tendency to avoid that now or at the very least it is obvious that I can slow it down by focusing too much in the meaning of the story and it's just like meh. Most are really meaningless now. The saying was true though, we are our worst enemy 😂
🙏♥️ The past is not piled up somewhere in storage, and the future is not waiting on shelves to be picked. So then where is this moment? Nowhere. My voice, my glancing, my body’s movements, the entirety of appearance…coming from and going nowhere.
It’s interesting because I often feel the same way about places as well. Yes, the things apparent before me may have shifted in appearance, but I haven’t really “gone” anywhere. I’ve always been right here and it’s always been right now.
It wasn't until I realized that EVERYTHING is addiction...that I was able to let go of all of mine...only to find "oh wait, I'm even addicted to letting go of addiction." That cyclical whatever...to me that is god.
You think about the past and future and understand them intellectually but you experience the present. The moment you think about the present, it becomes the past. The present is happening now, but what is now really? Is it this second? Is it half a second? You can keep reducing it to infinity and not get any closer. But you are there now and have always been and you feel it, just not with your mind or ego.
A past which eludes any attempt to reconstitute it, a future untouchable by anything but conjecture, and a present which is perfectly like a snowflake upon landing on warmth - the present dies every nanosecond and so cannot be held. Where is time or duration?
Question: in the video The Mystery of Tibetan Monks' Paranormal Abilities: Unparalleled Skills and Secrets of Practice, Pengcuozaxi travels miles instantly. Is he using the knowledge that time is an illusion to accomplish this rapid traveling skill?
How should I quiten my mind when thoughts keep coming through out the day, sometimes without I realizing that I am engaged in my thoughts? Only after few minutes of engagement in the psychological drama that I notice this is all thought. This then carries into the daily meditation.
Can you give pointers to dealing with severe physical pain that's happening in the now? I try just being with the sensations, no label, but sometimes there is such an overwhelming experience of suffering in those moments that all this aversion arises and there is a desperation to get out of that overwhelm asap. And then there is some guilt that I feel the need for pain medication...but if I don't take it when it's that extreme then I am bedridden and cannot even do basic survival care. Can you please soeak to this level of living with Chronic or Acute physical pain in the Here and Now. Thanks for all you give and do here. Blessings ❤
Hi Angelo, a question for you - As you are in the world (or not) on non dual, what are your thoughts on UFOs? Surely they just cannot be there? Thanks.
i'm getting more shortsighted since my last birthday. They say it's because the lens in my eye gets stiffer with age. Makes sense kinda. Nah just concepts dreamt up by the venal spectacles industry!
I thought I knew what inquiry was. But I was asking the question in order to get something. To achieve enlightenment. Now I just don't know what's going on, so there's the question. What is this? Really, what is this?
"the crack pipe of time" 😂🤣 Classic! Gotta start using that one. In the future 😉. Yeah, the future isn't something I think about a lot, but I do love to create alternate timelines - what if I did X instead of Y, how would my life be different. Perhaps not a crack pipe, but more a heroine syringe? :)
Hi, I'm also a Joe, this intrigued me but as a bus driver I'm so entrenched in the concept of time I struggle to let it go. Is there any way I can fulfill my working commitments and not get lost in this illusion? This triggered a subtle shift in me so thank you.
And yet, events seem to unfold in a causal chain. Is this also an illusion? It seems fundamental, but I was also sure at one time that I was a separate entity:)
Angelo, you have said before that sometimes a big loss is needed to wake up. I've been asking the universe to help me with awakening for I don't know how long and I've received word a few days ago that something I shouldn't have done at work is being reviewed and there's a possibility of me losing my job. Is it really necessary for me to go through a big loss like this again, I don't want it to happen like this.
Everything always happens in the Now. Your experiences did happen, but not in the past. It was the "present" when you experienced them. 🚫 🕑 Everything (physical and non-physical) is in a state of change [growth and decay], except for the I AM sense. We all experience the same I Am sense. This sense is the true Self: unlimited, unchanging, eternal consciousness. 🧘♂️ ➡️Thou art that.⬅️ Behind the conceptual self (persona), is the authentic you: still, silent awareness. You are what you are seeking. ⚫️ Hope this helps. 🙏
Seems like a nice enough guy, but I want to know what to do when my silly time addicted mortage company starts screaming that my payments are 6 months overdue and that they're kicking me out to the street. Tell them its all an illusion?? 🤓
If that’s happening, it is not happening in time, it’s happening right now, where everything happens. If it’s theoretical then it’s a thought and not actually happening. But the thought is appearing now, not in time.
I'm extremely confused, you say time doesn't exist yet to understand the words in this video I need the illusion of time, this video took you some time to film, the reading is taking the illusion of time. If this is an illusion too how can there be truth in it? If you're saying it within the illusion. If you don't believe in the existence of time, why do you have videos talking about "stages"? If there's no path. No others, who are you talking to? How can you function as a person and why would you?

I’ve been toking on the time doobie all day. Thanks for the intervention.

Looking out
For who’s looking in
…or did I get that backwards? 🤭
Ahhh this one is a banger. So powerful!! I think it deserves a spot in your greatest hits!! ❤
Eternity is like an open field on a calm summer day. Time is like the grass in that field.

This is the single most powerful thing i have become awake too.
❤ Maybe my favorite Angelo video ever! (and of course how absurd this statement seems in light of the content) 😉

Ashley, yesterday I did a "no time" day, and it was so beautiful. Amazing how life unfolded and still "lifed."

Just keep at it and look into your own experience for the answers, but don't conclude!
That's what a mentor told me: no conclusions. But then I talk with tony parsons and he seems to land at a conclusion. I'll call him tomorrow and ask him. Is there a conclusion?

We’re taught time 🫢
🙌 this is it, just this. Thank you so much Angelo
❤Love these effective workshops! So powerful!!
Soooo good “why would we want to avoid this”… still noticing how “un-present” I am, tyvm Angelo ❤
Wow. This is very powerful pointer to the present moment. Thank you very much, Angelo
I am greatful for your existence Angelo, Thank you...
This is phenomenal ❤
This was extraordinarily triggering. Thank you.
"the crack pipe of time" that was too funny man hahaha, burst out laughing in a parking lot 😂
It’s interesting because I often feel the same way about places as well. Yes, the things apparent before me may have shifted in appearance, but I haven’t really “gone” anywhere. I’ve always been right here and it’s always been right now.
Brilliant clarity as always🙏❤️
Now I can't stop thinking about the "crack pipe of time" joke!😂
😆
so speechless, return to the innocence. thank you for uploading and the videos, its so refreshing, loving and mesmerising like the moment.
Absolutely love this pointing, so much clarity. The thought is not the experience has been my Cohan these last few days.
Beautiful reminder... a keeper for sure. 💙Thank you precious one 🙏
Thanks!
Thank YOU!!
It just became so clear. Since there is no such thing as a future this very moment is constantly being refreshed 😆
yes!
So what we are is this eternal moment?
thank you for the direct pointing
This is beautiful, thank you ❤
great pointing
thank you Angelo 🙏❤️
Wow, I see it. So simple
How long is the shortest moment? How short is the longest moments? Just how many moments are there?
one of your best my friend
It wasn't until I realized that EVERYTHING is addiction...that I was able to let go of all of mine...only to find "oh wait, I'm even addicted to letting go of addiction." That cyclical whatever...to me that is god.

The past, the present and the future all walked into a bar. It was tense.

"I understand this reference"
A past which eludes any attempt to reconstitute it, a future untouchable by anything but conjecture, and a present which is perfectly like a snowflake upon landing on warmth - the present dies every nanosecond and so cannot be held. Where is time or duration?
Thank you for such authentic transmission. The chosen words too are golden. "Crack pot of time" - what a poetic expression.💝💖💝💓💜🤎💚🧡💖💗💝
When you say the past is imagined and made up do you mean it actually never happened or just that it is imagined in this moment?
Question: in the video The Mystery of Tibetan Monks' Paranormal Abilities: Unparalleled Skills and Secrets of Practice, Pengcuozaxi travels miles instantly. Is he using the knowledge that time is an illusion to accomplish this rapid traveling skill?
When do I experience the past ? Now....

this was profound, thank you Angelo. Loved the background music - can you point me to the artist?
Hi Angelo, a question for you -
As you are in the world (or not) on non dual, what are your thoughts on UFOs? Surely they just cannot be there? Thanks.
i'm getting more shortsighted since my last birthday. They say it's because the lens in my eye gets stiffer with age. Makes sense kinda. Nah just concepts dreamt up by the venal spectacles industry!
This came just in "time"
Which is more addictive? Time or taint?
This is such a trip. Drowning in my own unconscious suffering. But I am that, there's nothing drowning. What the heck? What is going on?
I thought I knew what inquiry was. But I was asking the question in order to get something. To achieve enlightenment. Now I just don't know what's going on, so there's the question. What is this? Really, what is this?
Great Questions!
I can't want enlightenment. That's impossible. Enlightenment is a concept. I have no idea what enlightenment is, so how could I want it?
I don't even want truth anymore. I don't know what I want.
I like thyme tho :/
Sage advice there

When you say take care of everything, what do you mean?
I'd love to look into whether time exists or not, but I can't find any time.

Put the crackpipe of time down😂😂😂😂😂😂❤yaas
And yet, events seem to unfold in a causal chain. Is this also an illusion? It seems fundamental, but I was also sure at one time that I was a separate entity:)
So the perception of change requires thought. But change happens anyway. So what is it perceived as without thought? Serious question.

a big loss is not necessary but take life as it comes

So it's possible to see through the time illusion and sit in the timeless present moment and never believe the illusion again?
Shoot, I gotta run I'm late
Damn boiii 🔥
This video is so timely…😂😂 …jk…it’s really this simple ❤
Crack pipe of time😂True words brother!
You got that right!
If the past wasn't true ,then dosent this mean being here now isn't real its like saying the thoughts of the past are not real 😢so confused
The thoughts are as real as any appearance. When do they exist?
So how to explain change? We’re certainly not the same physically as when we were born.
