Knowing the Self only in 'pure' behavior is of no more value than knowing the Self in deep sleep.
🙏
Thank you michaeL.
A great reminder.
🙏
Michael say im watching a movie, or driving a car - how would i in the midst of this activity "attend to mySelf"?
Would it be something like ask myself who is the one driving? What happens (or is supposed to happen) after i ask this question?
Do you know how to put your attention on your I Am?
Nobody is binge watching nor reading fiction.... the biggest fiction is to think that something is happening for someone.
@@johnmcdonald260 not only the "neo advaita crowd" ... in the Guru Vachaka Kovai, Sri Muriganar says"Although Guru Ramana taught various doctrines
according to the level of understanding of those who
came to Him, we heard from Him that ‘Ajata’ alone is truly His own experience. Thus should you know" (v 100)
Sadhu Om: ‘Ajata’ is the knowledge that nothing - neither the world, soul nor God - ever comes into existence, and that ‘That
Which Is’ ever exists as IT is.
Gvk 101. "It is this same ‘Ajata’ that Sri Krishna revealed to Arjuna in an early Chapter [two] of the Gita, and know that it was only because of the latter’s bewilderment and inability to grasp the Truth, that other doctrines
were then taught in the remaining sixteen chapters"
Ajata was defined by the sage Gaudapada centuries ago, in the Mandukya Karikas " III-48. No individual soul was born. It has no cause (from birth). (That being the case), the highest Truth is that nothing is born (ajata vada)"🙏
@@johnmcdonald260 why do you insist on telling people to identify with the ego??
We are not the ego, the ego is illusionary, a phantom.
Please stop.
If you think and identify as ego, the first to rise from the self, will you ever be free of ego ? cx

@John McDonald decided to remove all of his post from this discussion.
As a result only half of the conversation remains available to read.
@john McDonald made some bold claims in his deleted posts which is why the posts I posted read the way that they do.
A comment was made that pointed out that, in reading only the one side of the conversation, it appears I have a smug and patronising manner
The posts have not been deleted, and remain because I stand by the comments, although the word usage and writing style could be improved upon… maybe 🤔😂🥰cx
@@johnmcdonald260 enquire who you are. Once you know who you are then you will not see others. Stop seeing yourself as a person on a body with a mind and you will stop seeing others. Focus on the I thought, continue the self enquiry cx
@@Iiisgracebestill Self-enquiry is surly needed.
@@johnmcdonald260 the proper practice of self enquiry...
focus on the
I thought , to locate oneself, to realise that we are awareness everything with a form is false and that only the formless is real.
