The recognition of Non Duality, Awakening and Enlightenment seems to be reaching critical mass worldwide. If you resonate with Adyashanti, Ekhart Tolle, Ram Dass, Angelo Dilullo, Alan Watts, Rupert Spira, Loch Kelly, Lisa Natoli, and Ken Wilbur, you just may find a home here as well.

Thank you Josh! This talk hit the nail on the head.
🙏❤️
This talk was amazing. Love how you get at patterns. Those really resonate. Thanks my friend.
Thank you for being here 🙏
Very helpful, thank you!
🙏
Comment for the algorithm 🐍
Synchronicity much lol. No but yeah you pointed right at it. Stuck right now in the "wanting to know that I know" part again. "Oh man I was doing so much better yesterday. Im so caught in mind. Blah blah blah." Just more resistance. More reasons to suffer. Wonderfully helpful message.
And we keep swimming!
This was really helpful. I experience constant chatter of worrying that I'm not working hard enough and feeling guilty for relaxing too much. I know it's an illusion and part of the game, yet I still identify with it. I think it is likely trauma. You did a great job at articulating the ineffable; It brought up sensations of derealization for me. Makes me sad to ponder that this experience is very real, yet very illusory.
Writing this out makes me realize it might be time to meditate 😅
I really appreciate this. Glad to know i am not alone.
So helpful. Thank you!❤
Just meditate, you will learn more from that than the summed input of all external sources.
There is no more potent pointing than self pointing
Interesting perspectives and observations. I think about how the polarity between two states reference each other to create each other's existence - to have darkness, you must have light, to have hatred you must have love, to have joy you must have suffering. Thank you for the good reminder to pull your consciousness back to the present moment of just being, instead of the trap that is comparisons, judgment, aversion, and attraction.
I had a weird experience this week where I hit a critical point. energy has been exploding through my body and I was left with a profound feeling of love and comfort. I’d walk past people and feel deeply connected with all. My body feels as though shifts are taking place. Although I am not a religious man and lacking spiritual knowledge, I feel I know this state for some reason.
A week later and although I’m still experiencing a clarity and stillness aswell as a subtle warmth like lava within my core. It has greatly reduced and the intense love has also levelled down. I want to surrender to it but I am fearful I am “loosing it” or scared I don’t understand something?
This video met me in the middle today. I was becoming lost in my need to know. Thanks my friend ❤️ help accepted 🙏❤️
Wow... great share!
Beautiful words, thank you.
🙏
So good

Taste.the biscuit. Taste the goodness of the biscuit. 😂

Wow, well articulated! Thank you! yeah, I've been doing some digging in the pain patterns, but am finding myself having a hard time accepting emotions and sensations... really frustrating. It's like it's a village in my head rioting to make me meet my immediate and intermediate needs, not digging in the patterns all day. I'd rather get it over with, but meeting a lot of resistance... I can barely hear the words, my body kind of blows up to a balloon. Journalling helps but it takes a loooong time to get the messages our. Any tips/guidance there would be much appreciated. My goal is to get to peace, free from (hindering amounts of) immediate suffering.
🙏
Hi Josh, when you say , “something seems to be consistent”
I get that-I consistently dread…
that’s all I know for sure right at this moment.
I don’t know what for sure but it’s there. Does that make sense? It doest to me haha 🙃
How do you know it's dread? What are the exact aspects of the sensations? Ask yourself if dread is an assumption, and what does simply breathing feel like.
Thoughts are not friends...
@@So-Awake- lol no they’re not! Ok I’ll check into that today. Thank you Josh
I read what you replied to another comment - that ‘thoughts are not friends’! Even to acknowledge that the present is perfect is also a thought, isn’t it? And what about thoughts that make me happy! Are they also not friends?
Hi! Wonderful! the present is perfect but what about the the fear the future ? That may be the future may not be as perfect as it is now? Plz clarify..thank you
The future is simply thought. It does not exist.
@@So-Awake- thank you. Well that takes balls of steel to really accept it as the truth. Just reading your reply, the self in me shivered with terror!
🙏🙏 🙏 ❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Hey, thanks for sharing this - Can you elaborate on what you mean by the sense of "no" buried within our patterns? I find identifying a pattern simple, but what does it look like to peel back layers? I find asking "why why why" just leads to circular bs to provide something satisfactory, but which seems potentially inauthentic.
There is a sense of rejecting reality as it is
Thisness is so confusing it's hard to know what to do with the apparent self
Nothing to do. Rest in stillness, and allow confusion to fall into just This...
