Since I was a little girl I felt a feeling of missing someone or of homesick. I was talking to God since childhood, through a journal. I am finaly on my way to waking up. The whole experience is extraordinary and out of this world. All I want is to go to God again. I miss that so much.
This video is 7 months ago and it is just so wild that I have been struggling all day trying to understand the meditation and what the purpose is, and this shows up. Thank you
My name is favio and I’m from California I Just want to say thank you so much for sharing this I’ve been at a weird place and almost feel like I’m losing my mind at times but this brought great comfort knowing that what I’ve been experiencing is not me going crazy but me figuring out where I’m supposed to go and it’s always in the direction of being a love,but you just reminded me to stay on track and trust the higher power leaving me the bread crumbs to follow THAANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUi hope we meet one day I would love to give you a hug brother keep doing what you’re doing :)
When you discussed the distinction between truth and perception, it brought to mind an analogy of a computer or smartphone. The applications and desktop interface represent what we perceive-simplified and user-friendly. In contrast, the motherboard and internal operating system, which remain out of sight, symbolize the underlying truth that’s far more complex and essential to the device’s function
For me, I experience my body as so unlimited. Every time I engage with it consciously I am amazed at the potential of the body. How so much of it can change. Fascia and the consciousness running through it. It's just absolutely divine.
I have definitely been shown this video because it is exactly what I need. I was feeling very overwhelmed in my spiritual journey and I just asked god and my team of light to give me a nudge of help. This video was exactly it.
Namaste, I will never forget that my initial reaction to the idea of being the Great Divine mystery was fear and not wanting to be That. More and more I'm working on acceptance to That which Is. Pointless to fear Truth and reality.
Thank you for sharing. You are right, I'm on the same journey and get frustrated but that is my human side and as you say I have to go within..... patience ❤
Thank you , your speak make me understand, what a hell is going on within me. I "m asked so many people, but nobody cound' t tell me about anything. I allways no, I need experiences, allthough my understanding can't rise. Allways inworth. Thank you ❤
Kabbalah involves the spiritual significance of number and letter symbols. It’s not confusing to me. The subconscious has access to the universe and beyond. Many of us have likely had spiritual experiences, and intuitive experiences beyond our body and conscious minds. A mother’s love for her children is eternal and beyond ego. I know because I have adult sons and a long term foster child who I could never stop loving. I agree there is a part of us that doesn’t want us to realize our potential and our full capacity.
Ben, how beautifully and eloquently explained, you really are a pure channel, thank you 🙏🏻 You literally popped up on my RUclips after I asked the divine for clear guidance, and you spoke about exactly that!!! Wow! Ben, I’ve been on a spiritual journey for over a decade and I simply can’t get enough of your videos! I look forward to learning more with you, thank you ☺️ xx
For a spur of the moment video this was so on point! Excellent job. I am so grateful and happy that I have discovered your channel a few days ago. I have been binge watching your videos. You come across so genuine and humble. Thank you Ben for putting yourself out there and wanting to help. Your channel is going to soar!
Thanks Ben, if I can add a few hints for peps new to trying to dig into their own truth, patience is sooo needed at the start before something more solid lands. It took me 5 decades of being atheist to dig the whole I'm in... I'm making a path out of it hopefully won't take 50years to get to the surface again. Be open like Ben said don't limit how you get messages they will come and be aware of how other teaching sits with you,don't give your power away to anything...books..guru's the truth is inside as Ben just said.
Thank you. This is very helpful for me. I was an atheist not long ago so I'm really trying to hear what the Universe is telling me...what a strange time to be a human...
@neilwill1394 nice response 😂🙏 That moron has now been blocked from the channel. They’ve lost the right to watch any of these videos (he’s spammed a few people today😅)
I am happy to have found you. Questions that I have been contemplating were answered & also, I believe what you are sharing. I've watched a few of your videos & am an avid fan. Thank you for doing this for us
I think you’re on the right track but I think it’s the other way around. In the beginning, the divine single source was alone. I think it created the physical world and the beings within it so that it could experience love, beauty, joy, fun, etc. Of course those emotions have opposites to define them. With that being said, I do think it’s important to understand that we are the divine experiencing itself in that way in order to have the proper perspective for those emotions and really appreciate them as intended. But I do think the purpose of this existence in this plane is to feel those emotions that could not exist when there was just the single source. The key is to not forget the we are that source and why we/it created this. When we forget we suffer because of our perceived limitations. So, in my opinion, the purpose of this experience is for the source to have experiences it could not have on its own but we must have that knowledge to not be trapped by it.
I've been able to understand all of these philosophical and spiritual concepts actually in the body level... Due to my high level of sensitivity, my extremely sensitive nervous system. Maybe this is my gift in this world? My purpose?
I used to think much as you about what our modern culture calls “synchronicities” but really anything in this dream of life can speak to us in some way. It’s like reading tea leaves, if you simply look around the room for some intuitional insight it will come to you through something, because it was God (or our Inner and Truer Self) who sent the desire or suggestion to do so at that time and place in the first place anyway.
❤🙏🏽Thanx for answering questions. I thought there was no answer. Turning 43 mother of 4 M20Y and now I want to divorce... I felt I was done and I needed to move to the next stage and this has been my 10Y or less journey of searching why I am such a loner and I am ok with it as it is difficult to mingle with other I always feel like I don't belong here! And I want to understand why? I'm definitely been guided...
Hi Ben! Thank you for your response to my question regarding why we need to meditate. I did some further searching and found some more answers that really resonated with me on this journey . I learned that, it’s important to strengthen our ‘Intuitive’ abilities. One way we can do this is by meditation. Continuously being lead on my path. Xox
For me, when I dance, I follow this force I can hear inside the body. When I do my intuitive somatic practice, the same thing but more like I'm orchestrating the symphony. I wonder if that's what the experiential truth of me is.
In regards to seeing recurring numbers, in my family, the numbers 23 and 28 have been "special" for a few generations. For example, all 4 of my mother's children were born on the 28th of different months and other important life events such as weddings, passings, moves etc... also all happened on the 23rd or 28th. When my mother passed away at the young age of 45, it seems this "tradition" was passed down to me but in my case, it is more than 23 and 28 but also a blend of those 3 numbers like 328, 283, 823 etc... My family members are aware of this and one day as my sister was accompanying me for eye surgery and while in the waiting room, I told her how for the past few days, the numbers were following me EVERYWHERE and it was a bit eerie. A few minutes later, we hear my name on the speaker telling me to proceed to room 23. "See?" I tell my sister. On the way back home, we stopped at a take out restaurant. When I was handed my number for pick up, I'm told that my number is 328. "Of course", I said. My sister was becoming a bit bewildered. Then a few minutes later at a road stop, I tell my sister to look at the telephone number inscribed on the commercial van in front of us which were all made up of 2-3 and 8. Once home, I asked my sister what time it was. It took her a few seconds for her to respond "it's 2:38". I'm still not sure what seeing those numbers means exactly even though I've always been a truth seeker. I've always explained it away as Life giving me a wink, as if Life was flirting with me.
Ben yesterday I started a journal , on the back of watching this video. My journal now contains gratitude in seeing your videos of late , and I write down some of your sayings. And quotes. I’m 61 live in Leicester and recovering at home from operations to remove nasty stuff from my body . Feel good right now and your videos have been a great help. Just a thought if you’d maybe think about making a video on how meditation can help in healing . I’ve watched lots of spiritual healing by Bruno groening and his circle of friends . He’s little known in England and I’ve found comfort and a real experience in his videos the last 12 months or so. Likewise now loving your videos. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the message & I’m glad the videos are helping you! I grew up in Leicester, a lot of my family are still there. I pray your operation was a success! Take a look at my ‘healing hand’ video, that may help. Also, healing has a vibration. Everything has a vibration in fact. Believe it or not, the sound of bees creates a healing vibration. Try finding a video on RUclips and playing it everyday. You never know what may come from it. Take care mate 🙏
@@bensmithreal thanks for prompt message back Ben. Big coincidence you grew up in Leicester , though have found as I meditate consistently now i find coincidences each day which intrigues me. I’ll definitely watch your healing video later today and continue to follow you. Fact is I watch a video of yours each morning before meditation, though I know watching a screen not best start to a day. Thanks for feedback and encouragement. I’ll continue to comment on each of your videos. Have a great day 🙏👍
Divine, I am, the all that is and all that will ever be☯️🧘..the wildlife and your environment are very good at showing you what you need to know without words 🐦🐦🐦. Thanks for the message.. Stephanie🕊️🕊️♾️
Love your videos. I’ve learnt so much from your channel on how to meditate properly. I see loads of repeating numbers lately. I’ve been on a mediumship self development for over 30 years and trying to get to a very good connection with facts and the essence of the spirit. I never know why I’m on this path are where it will take me but I do enjoy the journey. Keep up the great information videos 🙏🏻🧘
...Imagine having a full cup of coffee and you need to carry it to your desk, if you concentrate on not spilling it, you will. But if you just pick it up and pay it no mind, not a drop will be spilled... Not that i've mastered the non spill yet, i'm still working on not working on it.
You are each the meaning of your own life. Because the only everlasting thing is you with yourself. That's why meaning in life is comprised of individual testaments.
I been watching a few of your videos now I had a really strange dream today other than chasing to catch up with a woman that I felt was a friend but don't know her in reality we were chatting happily when I looked down and I was holding a blue dragon fly then I see like loads coming out the ground in swarms by peoples houses it was strange but comforting then I woke up
Hello Ben. I came across you today and yes thats my spirt guides directing me to you. I believe 100% of what you are explaining. I’ve experienced the books, the numbers, the experience of talking with God and getting answers in ways that could have only come from God. It’s been a beautiful journey discovering all of this through prayer and divine signs reconfirming things. I’ve never done the meditation to experience the other realms. My question though is why do I need to, as a human meditate and experience all of these realms when I know they already exist? Why can’t I just continue to seek God (Devine) and work on loving my neighbour as myself and seeking to only desire God not anything of this world? Then hopefully reach higher realms. Would love your perspective. I thank my angels for directing me to you.🙏🏼
This is a great question! Meditation is a key to God. It’s not the only route, but it is a deep dive into God. In a sense, it is a period of single-minded dedicated communion with the Divine. This is very powerful and brings about a deeper connection and experience of God. The realms you speak of aren’t really important, some people will experience them, but not many. In any case, during meditation we expand our consciousness - we move beyond this human consciousness and begin to delve into higher states. The goal is really to experience the totality of God and actually merge back. I hope this helps you on your journey 🙏
I just wanted to share that when you mentioned the numbers, I looked at the clock and it was 4:44. My mind just tried to downplay it of course. Am just one regular person that bumped into all These things and it's been mind blowing and so confusing. The deeper I try to go into this the more confusing it gets so I wanna accept the 4:44 as a comfirmation despite my mind telling me that am delusional. Thank you for this video.
Amazing video! You’ve once again said exactly what I’ve been thinking recently. You’ve been a welcome calm voice in a recent season of turmoil, and you should know you’re doing amazing work with these videos!
Great video and content! There is an audible humm throughout the video, probably an harmonic of 60hz, may be microphone, mixer or computer related, so you know. Thanks.
If i cut off my arm , then my other arm, then my legs, then my body, then my neck, then my ears then my teeth, then my nose, then my eyes, then my hair........there : I .....still am : ok , just need to cut the mind off now 😊- great video Ben - thank you 🙏
Understand and agree with everything you’re saying, Ben. I do wonder why we chose to come from the divine realm to the physical realm in order to realise our divinity though? That part has always confused me. Is it so that we become even higher consciousness than we were before we came to earth? Coz ‘God’ is still evolving? Is it to raise the consciousness of matter? - even though matter is a manifestation of consciousness in the first place 🤔. Would love to hear your thoughts on this, mate! 🙏🏻
My thoughts too… why would the divine / universe have a need to create entities (our higher selves/souls) that need to go through this process to achieve the divine? What’s the bigger purpose of creating this/having this phenomenon even exist? Eg: if we are all the divine, is the divine fragmented and in doing so is hoping to put itself together? Again for what purpose? Shower thoughts…
Ben how do I know that the Ego which distracts me from going within is not simply trying to keep me on the track of living this particular physical existence that is my pre planned life experience? I sometimes wonder if my interest in meditation is actually avoiding day to day situations that are uncomfortable or make me unhappy.
That’s a great question. In a way, the ego is trying to keep you involved in this physical existence. The reason for this is because whilst IT is sustained by this worldly life. However, as you start to realise more and more who you are, the ego is no longer needed, so it fights for its existence.
Thanks Ben your reply is appreciated - however where does leaving the Ego behind leave unresolved relationship issues, to move away from the Ego seems to lose the option to resolve them Ego to Ego if that makes sense, maybe learning lessons the hard way but perhaps more authentically. Sorry about the ongoing questions but you are working in a very interesting area
@@bensmithreal apologies, I feel somewhat attached to my own personality and likewise the personalities of many individuals in my life, will moving away from our Egos mean we leave our personalities behind too?
Hi Ben. Really excellent video. You just popped up on my RUclips feed just when I needed a wise voice - thank you. You remind me very much of my old friend Pete Smith (from Leicester), who has a son called Ben ...?
Hi Ben. My name's Ian McPherson. I worked with your dad (who always raised the vibe with his great sense of humour) and I did martial arts with him for a while.
You are so amazing to present this video unscripted ! Just curious - when you seek within what kind of answers did you get? I know I’m not phrasing this question right. Trying to find out .. how to know that I’m getting the right answers from the right place within.
Thank you😌 For me it often comes as a ‘knowing’. Sometimes though, I ask for guidance and then the answers come later, through a conversation or book etc. The purity that the question comes from also makes a big difference. Your experience may be different, but there only one way to know 😌
Hi Ben, as a new subscriber I’m really getting into your channel. Just letting you know I mentioned you to Chad, who has a channel called Open Your Reality. I’ve followed his channel for over 5 years. I think you’d enjoy his material covering all sorts of topics from spirituality to the Mandela Effect and the universe in general. As the name suggests, he’s a very open minded and genuine person, exploring everything about who we are. I think he reached out to you, possibly for a live chat. Kind regards, Davide
lovely video, my partner always say what is the point to life why bother with anything, I also say it is not to work 9-5 40 hours a week, I believe it is to have experiences and create wonderful memories to take back with you, better to pass on saying I lived a good life, than pass on with loads unfulfilled dreams and regrets
V'been struggling with severe depression for a couple of years now & i know exactly what was eating me up -EXISTENTIAL CRISIS !!....I live in Africa-Kenya & such things are considered heresy to even think of.... i have always wondered why everyone was soo calm & composed while the have no clue who,what they are !!.... You sir just posted this video at the right time.... i remember just yesterday trying to follow your astral projection guide i wanted to exit solely to know what you just posted today..... I would love to have your social media handles sir if you dont mind...🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for another great video! I like to think of it as this: ‘we are all soul fragments of God / IAM consciousness going through a unique human experience, and our purpose is to wake up and realize who we really are… to journey our way back to God, and to learn unconditional love. For ourselves and others. We need contrast to help us wake up. 😊 I appreciate you using the word God and divine. It seems when people wake up to this they aren’t offended by such terms.
Thank you for this video. I’m new to your channel and felt guided to this video tonight. I’m relatively new to meditation as well. I “know” I’m divine and my experiential moments of that have felt isolating in this world. What do you recommend to overcome that feeling and approach it with more hope and motivation?
Hi Ben, I only discovered you today and I like your content. I have been learning to meditate for a year now and often feel like I'm moving through a subterranean landscape, seeing rocks and boulders pass by. Once it was a country lane...it vanished instantly unless I remain totally calm. Can you explain what might be happening to me? Jane
Many great ideas and concepts here that resonate strongly with my experience going back to the mid-70s! FWIW, if you haven't already, it might be interesting to check out Thomas Campbell's trilogy: My Big TOE (Theory of Everything). He has developed a framework built on straightforward metaphors which addresses these same ideas, access to which involves deep meditation and OOBEs that have informed his ideas over the course of (now) half a century. It's a long read, but primarily due to the meticulous manner in which his model and theory are built, literally from two basic assumptions, to describe much of what you're discussing here. Highly recommended if you haven't checked it out.
One level of our purpose is remembering who we really are but there must be more than just that… there’s a reason we came here to incarnate. Lessons we need to learn. Then there’s the problem of karma. More questions. 😂
Hello Ben, Hope you can help me. I started meditation 3 months back. I enjoyed every small change in me till last 2 weeks. Not sure what happened in my meditation my response to others are not good.. I see I’m hurting them .. like responding with anger or blaming them. I wasn’t like that. Do you think I’m doing anything wrong? I’m keeping myself positive and clam all time but this is worrying me a bit.
But if the purpose and journey is to get back to that unity, why did the Divine ever fragment itself in the first place? And doesn't the variety of things create interest? If we were just one amorphous unity, wouldn't that be dull? Is the goal to be both an individual and aware of unity and connection at the same time? 🤔
Thank you This felt like it was for me. I feel like the Universe is trying to send me a message that I'm not getting :( I will try meditation again, I haven't had much luck with it. At first I saw the same number everywhere, but now I am seeing multiple numbers repeating over and over again (11, 22, 33, 55) , and number sequences (like 2345 or 404, 525, 626). Everywhere. All day long. On top of that I feel like I can see the air? I realize this sounds crazy. I'm not sure how to describe it, it's like there is a unified field of very tiny pin pricks of millions of colors ontop of everything and they are moving...or vibrating maybe? Does anyone have any experience with this? Sometimes it's very intense and other times it goes unnoticed...
Ahh I’m so pleased for you. If I could offer any advice - if you do try meditation again, be sure to go in with a good amount of effort and intent. You won’t get much unless you put in a lot. Generally in life, anything that’s worth it’s salt takes effort - you won’t get a quick fix, but if you make it part of your life, it will transform it - that I can say. Best of luck with your journey🙏
I personally don’t. It might be easier in the moment, but you will gain more in the long run if you can learn to pull your awareness away from external noises & distractions.
Since I was a little girl I felt a feeling of missing someone or of homesick. I was talking to God since childhood, through a journal. I am finaly on my way to waking up. The whole experience is extraordinary and out of this world. All I want is to go to God again. I miss that so much.
Hey there dear comment reader, let me tell you that YOU CAN DO THIS ❤. It is not easy but wow 🎉 it is worth it!

I have now watched a number of your videos and so far for me this is your most compelling one. Thank you. ❤
the purpose of life is to experience what we are not
This came up at a time when I’m in the midst of my spiritual awakening. Thank you 🤩❤
For me, I experience my body as so unlimited. Every time I engage with it consciously I am amazed at the potential of the body. How so much of it can change. Fascia and the consciousness running through it. It's just absolutely divine.
I have only just found you Ben and I am so happy I have done. My experiences with Sathya Sai Baba and Mother Meera over the years changed my Life …….
Thank you for calling this beautiful and being a truthseeker like me. I feel so seen.
I have definitely been shown this video because it is exactly what I need. I was feeling very overwhelmed in my spiritual journey and I just asked god and my team of light to give me a nudge of help. This video was exactly it.
Namaste, I will never forget that my initial reaction to the idea of being the Great Divine mystery was fear and not wanting to be That. More and more I'm working on acceptance to That which Is. Pointless to fear Truth and reality.

Thank you Ben…
You spread the light well :-)
I am confident this channel will grow for you…. Great work!
A much needed message. Thank you Ben and always feel at peace whenever i listen to you. 🙏
Iv always known there is more , thank you God for helping me ❤
Feels like 2 steps forward 3 back.
Feel the opposite. Imagine the opposite 🤷♀️ 🪄
Thank you for sharing. You are right, I'm on the same journey and get frustrated but that is my human side and as you say I have to go within..... patience ❤
There is a point during growth when a person feels a need to expel everything he has learned. After he is empty, he can begin to grow again.
Yup
And thank you lovely soul Ben ❤😊
Thank you , your speak make me understand, what a hell is going on within me. I "m asked so many people, but nobody cound' t tell me about anything.
I allways no, I need experiences, allthough my understanding can't rise. Allways inworth.
Thank you ❤

That’s lovely to hear 😌🙏

Once home, I asked my sister what time it was. It took her a few seconds for her to respond "it's 2:38". I'm still not sure what seeing those numbers means exactly even though I've always been a truth seeker. I've always explained it away as Life giving me a wink, as if Life was flirting with me.
Ben yesterday I started a journal , on the back of watching this video. My journal now contains gratitude in seeing your videos of late , and I write down some of your sayings. And quotes. I’m 61 live in Leicester and recovering at home from operations to remove nasty stuff from my body . Feel good right now and your videos have been a great help. Just a thought if you’d maybe think about making a video on how meditation can help in healing . I’ve watched lots of spiritual healing by Bruno groening and his circle of friends . He’s little known in England and I’ve found comfort and a real experience in his videos the last 12 months or so. Likewise now loving your videos. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the message & I’m glad the videos are helping you! I grew up in Leicester, a lot of my family are still there. I pray your operation was a success! Take a look at my ‘healing hand’ video, that may help. Also, healing has a vibration. Everything has a vibration in fact. Believe it or not, the sound of bees creates a healing vibration. Try finding a video on RUclips and playing it everyday. You never know what may come from it. Take care mate 🙏
@@bensmithreal thanks for prompt message back Ben. Big coincidence you grew up in Leicester , though have found as I meditate consistently now i find coincidences each day which intrigues me. I’ll definitely watch your healing video later today and continue to follow you. Fact is I watch a video of yours each morning before meditation, though I know watching a screen not best start to a day. Thanks for feedback and encouragement. I’ll continue to comment on each of your videos. Have a great day 🙏👍
Nice one Ben. I love the way to explain things. Thank you ❤
Divine, I am, the all that is and all that will ever be☯️🧘..the wildlife and your environment are very good at showing you what you need to know without words 🐦🐦🐦. Thanks for the message.. Stephanie🕊️🕊️♾️
Thank you 🙏🙏
Love your videos. I’ve learnt so much from your channel on how to meditate properly. I see loads of repeating numbers lately. I’ve been on a mediumship self development for over 30 years and trying to get to a very good connection with facts and the essence of the spirit. I never know why I’m on this path are where it will take me but I do enjoy the journey. Keep up the great information videos 🙏🏻🧘
Thank you🙏 Happy for you - keep on exploring!
...Imagine having a full cup of coffee and you need to carry it to your desk, if you concentrate on not spilling it, you will. But if you just pick it up and pay it no mind, not a drop will be spilled... Not that i've mastered the non spill yet, i'm still working on not working on it.
You are each the meaning of your own life. Because the only everlasting thing is you with yourself. That's why meaning in life is comprised of individual testaments.
The 111 or 1111 really makes you SEE or saying “hey time to wake up!”
Thank you for this video!!🙏
I been watching a few of your videos now I had a really strange dream today other than chasing to catch up with a woman that I felt was a friend but don't know her in reality we were chatting happily when I looked down and I was holding a blue dragon fly then I see like loads coming out the ground in swarms by peoples houses it was strange but comforting then I woke up
Hello Ben. I came across you today and yes thats my spirt guides directing me to you. I believe 100% of what you are explaining. I’ve experienced the books, the numbers, the experience of talking with God and getting answers in ways that could have only come from God. It’s been a beautiful journey discovering all of this through prayer and divine signs reconfirming things. I’ve never done the meditation to experience the other realms. My question though is why do I need to, as a human meditate and experience all of these realms when I know they already exist? Why can’t I just continue to seek God (Devine) and work on loving my neighbour as myself and seeking to only desire God not anything of this world? Then hopefully reach higher realms. Would love your perspective. I thank my angels for directing me to you.🙏🏼
This is a great question! Meditation is a key to God. It’s not the only route, but it is a deep dive into God. In a sense, it is a period of single-minded dedicated communion with the Divine. This is very powerful and brings about a deeper connection and experience of God. The realms you speak of aren’t really important, some people will experience them, but not many. In any case, during meditation we expand our consciousness - we move beyond this human consciousness and begin to delve into higher states. The goal is really to experience the totality of God and actually merge back.
I hope this helps you on your journey 🙏
Experience = awareness, deeper deeper deeprr
PEACE = Present and Easy Awareness of the Current Experience
I love your videos. Thank you so much. ❤🇨🇦
Ahh I glad they are landing for you, thanks!💙🙏
Lookin fresh, bro! :)
Man, I just want to thank you for these videos. That isn't a strong enough conveyance, but it'll have to do. :)
There's no higher gratitude than gratitude.
Namaste
I just wanted to share that when you mentioned the numbers, I looked at the clock and it was 4:44. My mind just tried to downplay it of course. Am just one regular person that bumped into all These things and it's been mind blowing and so confusing. The deeper I try to go into this the more confusing it gets so I wanna accept the 4:44 as a comfirmation despite my mind telling me that am delusional. Thank you for this video.
Amazing video! You’ve once again said exactly what I’ve been thinking recently. You’ve been a welcome calm voice in a recent season of turmoil, and you should know you’re doing amazing work with these videos!
So please the videos are helpful🙏
Thank you, I appreciate your clarity
Thank you 😊
Great video and content! There is an audible humm throughout the video, probably an harmonic of 60hz, may be microphone, mixer or computer related, so you know. Thanks.
Thank you for this, my normal mic is out of action at the moment but I appreciate the heads up!
Wow this was a excellent video that helped me on my spiritual journey
Happy to hear this 🙏
If i cut off my arm , then my other arm, then my legs, then my body, then my neck, then my ears then my teeth, then my nose, then my eyes, then my hair........there : I .....still am : ok , just need to cut the mind off now 😊- great video Ben - thank you 🙏
Love your content!
I think you might find the Law of One channeling a worth read
Thank you 🙏
Understand and agree with everything you’re saying, Ben. I do wonder why we chose to come from the divine realm to the physical realm in order to realise our divinity though? That part has always confused me. Is it so that we become even higher consciousness than we were before we came to earth? Coz ‘God’ is still evolving? Is it to raise the consciousness of matter? - even though matter is a manifestation of consciousness in the first place 🤔. Would love to hear your thoughts on this, mate! 🙏🏻
My thoughts too… why would the divine / universe have a need to create entities (our higher selves/souls) that need to go through this process to achieve the divine? What’s the bigger purpose of creating this/having this phenomenon even exist? Eg: if we are all the divine, is the divine fragmented and in doing so is hoping to put itself together? Again for what purpose? Shower thoughts…
Ben what about terrible experiences?
Having difficulties going inward. Thanks for the vid !
In what way?🙏
Ben how do I know that the Ego which distracts me from going within is not simply trying to keep me on the track of living this particular physical existence that is my pre planned life experience? I sometimes wonder if my interest in meditation is actually avoiding day to day situations that are uncomfortable or make me unhappy.
That’s a great question. In a way, the ego is trying to keep you involved in this physical existence. The reason for this is because whilst IT is sustained by this worldly life. However, as you start to realise more and more who you are, the ego is no longer needed, so it fights for its existence.
Thanks Ben your reply is appreciated - however where does leaving the Ego behind leave unresolved relationship issues, to move away from the Ego seems to lose the option to resolve them Ego to Ego if that makes sense, maybe learning lessons the hard way but perhaps more authentically. Sorry about the ongoing questions but you are working in a very interesting area
You’ll have to make that question a little clearer for me if you can🙏
@@bensmithreal apologies, I feel somewhat attached to my own personality and likewise the personalities of many individuals in my life, will moving away from our Egos mean we leave our personalities behind too?
Hi Ben. Really excellent video. You just popped up on my RUclips feed just when I needed a wise voice - thank you. You remind me very much of my old friend Pete Smith (from Leicester), who has a son called Ben ...?
How funny, yes, that’s my dad. May I ask what your name is, I’m sure he’d love to know. Thanks🙏
Hi Ben. My name's Ian McPherson. I worked with your dad (who always raised the vibe with his great sense of humour) and I did martial arts with him for a while.
Great talk. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
The closer we get to experiencing it, the question arises, to what do we do with this experience and new understanding. How do we help others
It seems that people generally don't look within for answers because all of our cultural conditioning has directed us to look without
Just recently came across your channel....good work ! ☺
Much appreciated, thank you🙏
Do you ever talk about the entities that keep us in this fallen soultrap matrix and why? The ones Jesus told us we wrestle against
I've been wondering why I can't go deeper in my meditations.
You are so amazing to present this video unscripted ! Just curious - when you seek within what kind of answers did you get? I know I’m not phrasing this question right. Trying to find out .. how to know that I’m getting the right answers from the right place within.
Thank you😌
For me it often comes as a ‘knowing’. Sometimes though, I ask for guidance and then the answers come later, through a conversation or book etc. The purity that the question comes from also makes a big difference. Your experience may be different, but there only one way to know 😌
Great video thank you
Thank you!
Hi Ben, as a new subscriber I’m really getting into your channel. Just letting you know I mentioned you to Chad, who has a channel called Open Your Reality. I’ve followed his channel for over 5 years. I think you’d enjoy his material covering all sorts of topics from spirituality to the Mandela Effect and the universe in general. As the name suggests, he’s a very open minded and genuine person, exploring everything about who we are. I think he reached out to you, possibly for a live chat. Kind regards, Davide
Davide, thank you for this, we have been in contact and have arranged an interview next week🙏
@@bensmithreal my pleasure, Ben, looking forward to it
lovely video, my partner always say what is the point to life why bother with anything, I also say it is not to work 9-5 40 hours a week, I believe it is to have experiences and create wonderful memories to take back with you, better to pass on saying I lived a good life, than pass on with loads unfulfilled dreams and regrets
Great point!🙏
I want to ask questions
pls sir what is your opinion about reiki?
V'been struggling with severe depression for a couple of years now & i know exactly what was eating me up -EXISTENTIAL CRISIS !!....I live in Africa-Kenya & such things are considered heresy to even think of.... i have always wondered why everyone was soo calm & composed while the have no clue who,what they are !!.... You sir just posted this video at the right time.... i remember just yesterday trying to follow your astral projection guide i wanted to exit solely to know what you just posted today..... I would love to have your social media handles sir if you dont mind...🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you, my instagram is in the bio of this video😌🙏
Only those touched by a deeper connection to the Universal Soul has thoughts and core yearnings like you are having now. Welcome to the family man.
As a divine consciousness why do we come to this realm when we could remain in our higher consciousness infinitely?
Thank you for another great video! I like to think of it as this: ‘we are all soul fragments of God / IAM consciousness going through a unique human experience, and our purpose is to wake up and realize who we really are… to journey our way back to God, and to learn unconditional love. For ourselves and others. We need contrast to help us wake up. 😊 I appreciate you using the word God and divine. It seems when people wake up to this they aren’t offended by such terms.
Totally agree with you 🙏😌
Thank you for this video. I’m new to your channel and felt guided to this video tonight. I’m relatively new to meditation as well. I “know” I’m divine and my experiential moments of that have felt isolating in this world. What do you recommend to overcome that feeling and approach it with more hope and motivation?
For me that something else is experienced most deeply IN my body, not separate from it. Is that really strange? Does anyone else have this experience?
Thank you, Ben. I've been seeing numbers for over 10 years. But I thought what was going on . Why. Am i being stupid here? Ha, so now i know . ❤
👍
What if we are also the body but to understand that we need to go through the process of elimination and then return back to it?
Hi Ben, I only discovered you today and I like your content. I have been learning to meditate for a year now and often feel like I'm moving through a subterranean landscape, seeing rocks and boulders pass by. Once it was a country lane...it vanished instantly unless I remain totally calm. Can you explain what might be happening to me? Jane
Many great ideas and concepts here that resonate strongly with my experience going back to the mid-70s! FWIW, if you haven't already, it might be interesting to check out Thomas Campbell's trilogy: My Big TOE (Theory of Everything). He has developed a framework built on straightforward metaphors which addresses these same ideas, access to which involves deep meditation and OOBEs that have informed his ideas over the course of (now) half a century. It's a long read, but primarily due to the meticulous manner in which his model and theory are built, literally from two basic assumptions, to describe much of what you're discussing here. Highly recommended if you haven't checked it out.
When I let go of everything... what is left? What still lives?
One level of our purpose is remembering who we really are but there must be more than just that… there’s a reason we came here to incarnate. Lessons we need to learn. Then there’s the problem of karma. More questions. 😂
Hello Ben,
Hope you can help me.
I started meditation 3 months back. I enjoyed every small change in me till last 2 weeks. Not sure what happened in my meditation my response to others are not good.. I see I’m hurting them .. like responding with anger or blaming them. I wasn’t like that. Do you think I’m doing anything wrong? I’m keeping myself positive and clam all time but this is worrying me a bit.
But if the purpose and journey is to get back to that unity, why did the Divine ever fragment itself in the first place? And doesn't the variety of things create interest? If we were just one amorphous unity, wouldn't that be dull? Is the goal to be both an individual and aware of unity and connection at the same time? 🤔
Thank you This felt like it was for me. I feel like the Universe is trying to send me a message that I'm not getting :( I will try meditation again, I haven't had much luck with it. At first I saw the same number everywhere, but now I am seeing multiple numbers repeating over and over again (11, 22, 33, 55) , and number sequences (like 2345 or 404, 525, 626). Everywhere. All day long. On top of that I feel like I can see the air? I realize this sounds crazy. I'm not sure how to describe it, it's like there is a unified field of very tiny pin pricks of millions of colors ontop of everything and they are moving...or vibrating maybe? Does anyone have any experience with this? Sometimes it's very intense and other times it goes unnoticed...
Ahh I’m so pleased for you. If I could offer any advice - if you do try meditation again, be sure to go in with a good amount of effort and intent. You won’t get much unless you put in a lot. Generally in life, anything that’s worth it’s salt takes effort - you won’t get a quick fix, but if you make it part of your life, it will transform it - that I can say. Best of luck with your journey🙏
Hi Ben id like to know your view on using earplugs in Meditation ?
I personally don’t. It might be easier in the moment, but you will gain more in the long run if you can learn to pull your awareness away from external noises & distractions.
