This is the 3rd video of my 3-part series on meditation. If you haven't seen the first two videos, please watch those first. Links are in the description. P.S. If you watch this video and feel this is difficult for you, and if you want my help to dissolve mind identification completely, take action! Don't keep allowing your mind to obscure your peaceful nature. This doesn't have to be hard :) Book a call with me here and let's see how I can help you become completely free from mind identification and emotional suffering: personalmasteryquest.youcanbook.me/
"Do not enter meditation with demands and requests. Enter meditation to give yourself to it. It is the temple of the True Spirit within you to which you bring yourself. In your practice periods, then, be present and be still. Allow yourself to bathe in the luxury of emptiness. For the presence of God is first experienced as emptiness because it lacks movement, and then within this emptiness, you begin to feel the presence that permeates all things and gives all meaning in life. Practice stillness today so that you may know." Steps to Knowledge, The Book of Inner Knowing - Step 69: Today I will practice stillness.
This 3 part series is absolute gold ! You are amazing ! I finally understand why I keep failing even though I resolve to change each day. Gratitude 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sunny, you are a blessing. Thanks for this series on the beauty of meditation practice, and that actual practice that is the foundation for everything else. I have always done my practice once a day, I will try doing it twice a day. I am ready to incorporate Self Inquiry into my daily practice. I still struggle with overthinking it, and wanting it to be more complex than it is, that I must do it perfectly. This is something I struggle with in many aspects of my life. I feel that meditation is helping me let go of this, but, it is a journey. So happy that you have come into my journey🙏🏻
Hey Sunny, I don’t know why this is but your videos especially this one has really helped me to be better at meditating. Congratulations for doing such a great job. These are really helpful!
I have gone through an disorder but when I explore more about what ocd and how to free from these I started research and I find my most need video that observe your emotions these so powerful techniques is helping me to getting out and stop thoughts controlling me I am doing it from 3 months now and I feel very returning back to my self again thanks u 💕
I just love you so much sunny. You are so impactful. Thank you for everything you bring for us. It is so what I need right now. Your articulate description of mind and ego really helps.
Sunset is my time, too! I always look to the East at sunset. In winter the sky turns violet, in summer the reflected sunlight on the atmosphere to the East is divine.
Thank you, Sunny, for everything you do for us. I am practicing every day since about 7 months. I'm at the self enquiry part, but not sure if I ever get to the deepest center of self abidance. I notice everytime that I am pure awareness, but suddenly my mind pops up asking " Is that all to it?" Of course I catch that thought and go back to abidance, but even when not meditating I ask myself if I do it correctly and if there is more to it. I also don't experience any visions and pictures in front of my closed eyes like so many are talking about. Am I on the right path? I have no problem sitting still and clearing my mind and redirecting my focus back to self it-but this uncertainty if I need to do more or better does make me wonder. Thank you, Sunny, for all your wonderful teachings. You did actually help me heal from severe panic disorder and agoraphobia - without medication or psychological therapy. I'm extremely grateful 🙏💖.
The therapy waves track is great, I go off into space or outer space is in me. Finally your technique I can do. It's been very beneficial, sometimes I'm just gone. Wonderful. Thank you.
Great video series on meditation. I just realized that I cannot sit still for even a couple of minutes . My mind wonders in all the negative thoughts of the past. But one point is I do consistently one time a day for 15 to 20 minutes. Will start a fresh once again, keeping all your indicators in mind. Will give you feedback after couple of weeks. Thank you very much for these wonderful videos on basic/ correct way to meditate.🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍
Sunny, I know my mind has been subtly and obstinately trying to supercede my Being. I hope this time with your continuing incessant and heartfelt efforts through the Teachings and Interactions, that we may truely embody the Formless Being/Presence/Awareness/Consciousness through a dedicated regular Meditation Practice, and transcend much of the repeated Suffering our Identification with the Mind and Body create. We as Human Beings are fortunate in these Times, to have good Teachers as you Sunny, and others, shepherding us together, however difficult seems. to us. These three videos were very encouraging.
You are truly a blessing. Thank you so much for your amazing and very helpful videos, Sunny! 🙏 Can you do a video about how to be aware during everyday situations (when not meditating).
Sunny! I'm at a point in my meditation that I'm getting the feeling that "being" and "knowing" or "awareness" are one and the same """thing""". Not two aspects of one and the same thing, but actually exactly one and the same thing. What do you say? ❤🤔
Hi Sunny, many thanks for your videos. I meditate regularly, but some days I don’t have any time to do a practice, because I am outside all day without ability to find silent place. When I come home I usually feel extremely tired and sharply fall asleep. I feel anxiety and fear about missing the practice…
I went to re watch this and saw I had accidentally disliked it some time ago. Sorry!!!! I listen to these on my phone while I work and I keep the phone in an apron while I work. I have accidentally disliked other videos but I thought I caught them all and fixed it. Again, sorry! I love your videos!!! Why, oh why can't we go back to more technology advanced flip phones ???😖😅😅😅😅 The days before butt dials too. Lol Have a great day everyone!! 💗💗💗💗
Hi Sunny, I have a quick question. I am doing 1st type of meditation for a while, so can I increase the number of times I am doing meditation like from 2 to four or five times a day for 30 minutes whenever I have this much of time. So 4 to 5 times a day for 30 minutes is okay ?
If you desire to yes that is fine. Ultimately it is not about increasing sit down meditation time. Even about an hour of sit down meditation is sufficient. Along with that, strive to live the teachings in day to day life. And bring meditativeness(awareness of being) to your entire day as much as possible.
Wanna stop your thoughts? Just mentally try to guess what your “next” thought will be and wait for it. You’ll be waiting forever for that next thought. Lol
I started my practice in the mornings at 530 as soon as I wake up and brush. I do it sitting down but I still continue to fall asleep in between. Should I change the time of the meditation to when I am a bit more awake or will it get better with practice . I have been doing it for only 3 days now
Thank you! 💕 I have a question about pains in body : when I choose breathing as an anchor, it's ok, my mind and body are becoming still quickly. When I choose attention to body, I am feeling more and more sensations, this increases and it is becoming painful. So of course I prefer to choose breathing as an anchor, but I don't understand why for the other option, it is becoming painful ?
Heyy..can u talk about all that what our texts (like bhagvad gita, garudpuran etc basically texts which asks us to worship our idea of God)say and those bhajans satsang mean....I mean what is the importance of it if it's all just the mind ( thought) playing tricks..then all these just end up to be vague or is my interpretation wrong towards it
Tried your great tips...still have an issue with not nodding off lol...even when sitting straight up. Focusing on my breathing relaxes me and my body so much and with the eyes closed I get that feeling of falling asleep...can you keep your eyes open and focus? I get about a good ten minutes and then I just want to take a nap :P
@@selfinquiryschool Thank you. So in that case we don't have to start with breath or body sensation as anchor always. When we are aware of being drifted in thoughts, we can drop it and stay in sense I am?
@@palanichidambaram Yes. Breath anchor is only for those who don't yet recognize I am. Once you "wake up" to the sense of being clearly, then that is the only anchor you need. Then it is simply a returning to yourself. Yourself is not an object. It is the only thing within the realm of experience which has no objective quality :)
Does anyone know whether tracking the amount of times you zone out during meditation as a means for tracking progress is going to interfere with the practice?
No don't bring your mind into this :) That is not needed. What is important however is that you keep practicing the pointer. Put all your interest and devotion into that alone
Hi I was very vague as to what I actually meant by tracking meditation I just wanna elaborate quickly. Hi I just wanna make sure you know exactly what I mean by tracking progress since I was very unclear as to what I meant. I’ve been reading about meditation and want to get started with it and I’m curious about the effect meditation has on your ability to stay in the present moment without drifting off into daydreaming or thinking without knowing that you’re thinking. And I considered running a little experiment where I meditate as usual but I’d have a pen and paper infront of me so that whenever id notice myself lost in thought I’d make a dash on the paper and add them up at the end of each meditation. Of course it will vary greatly from day to day and even week to week and won’t be very linear of an improvement so I wouldn’t be paying it any attention in the shorter timeframes but I would maybe take a 6 monthly or yearly average of my ability to stay present. It would be very simple to track as I would just dash a piece of paper in front of me without even the need to open my eyes. But this idea is far less important to me then the quality of the meditation so if you know any reason why the practice will be negatively effected by this I’ll just dismiss with the idea. As it’s far less important. The reason for this experiment is partially curiosity and is partially OCD about wanting to see some kind of results over the very long term
I have been meditating for a couple of years now and always thought that it is not working for me because I was looking for some experiences I guess that is a mistake. When that didn't happen I felt like i was wasting time and not working for me.
Hello. Thank you so much for these teachings. I find that I keep going to a mantra when I’m listening to the beats or the breath, while focusing on my body outline/hands. Is this ok? I deeply appreciate your insight. 💞✨🕊

Thank you for showing us the way to this beautiful teaching 🌻 😊
Thank u .tears...I'm so tired of suffering...the ringing or buzz in my ears, my head, has been calling me to be still...
Sunset is my time, too! I always look to the East at sunset. In winter the sky turns violet, in summer the reflected sunlight on the atmosphere to the East is divine.
This is the best meditation guide I’ve
heard. Very detailed and well-explained for beginners. Thank you, Sunny 🙏
Thank you, happy to hear it helped you🙏🏽
You clarified my questions on how to meditate. I was not finding the answers. Thank you very much, I'll try to meditate

thanks bro. Jesus bless you

Great series 🙂
Happy it helped you!
Hi sunny is silence better more direct etc than theta waves or does it not matter. Or maybe some silence some theta waves. ?
I went to re watch this and saw I had accidentally disliked it some time ago. Sorry!!!! I listen to these on my phone while I work and I keep the phone in an apron while I work. I have accidentally disliked other videos but I thought I caught them all and fixed it.
Again, sorry! I love your videos!!!
Why, oh why can't we go back to more technology advanced flip phones ???😖😅😅😅😅
The days before butt dials too. Lol
Have a great day everyone!! 💗💗💗💗

Hi Sunny ! I don't see the Theta wave link you are talking about. I'm very interested if still available. Thank you !
It's down there. Take a close look. 😊😊
What do you think about song meditation
Wanna stop your thoughts? Just mentally try to guess what your “next” thought will be and wait for it. You’ll be waiting forever for that next thought. Lol
😂 makes sense
I tune into the sound in my head..in my ears...a buzz type sound ..I just listen to it and barely breathe
I use pure theta waves binaural beats. I prefer a wave beat because it doesn't sound like music, which is too distracting to me. Is this bad?
Have a question; how much of the Upanishads or the Mahavakyas have played in your spiritual life?
I started my practice in the mornings at 530 as soon as I wake up and brush. I do it sitting down but I still continue to fall asleep in between. Should I change the time of the meditation to when I am a bit more awake or will it get better with practice . I have been doing it for only 3 days now
Yes do it when more awake
@@selfinquiryschool thank you so much
what if one asked you, “so is the goal emotionlessness?” , how may u respond?
I would say no:)
I would say no:)
Thank you! 💕

Don’t be so affected by the pain. That which resists it is mind. Observe that and let that be

How to sit bro during meditation
🙏thank you

If I can come to this video free of my thoughts about meditation then I don't need meditation. ha ha

Yes interpretation is wrong. Practice what you understand and do not criticize what you may fail to understand 🙂❤️
@@selfinquiryschool True..my bad..we end up putting labels like vague on things that we don't understand..it's just lack of knowledge..thanks a lot ❤️
Tried your great tips...still have an issue with not nodding off lol...even when sitting straight up. Focusing on my breathing relaxes me and my body so much and with the eyes closed I get that feeling of falling asleep...can you keep your eyes open and focus? I get about a good ten minutes and then I just want to take a nap :P
Just remain consistent regardless. Don’t fight against it and interpret it so much. It will fall off
@@selfinquiryschool thanks!
Can we use IAM as anchor - the sense I am as an anchor?
Yes ultimately that is what Self inquiry is. Mentioned in step 2 of this video
