When False Is Recognized As Real, Suffering Begins

Eastern wisdom aims at self-discovery. Self-discovery leads to self-knowledge. The journey to self-discovery helps us to know what is existence and what is the world and who we are. When we recognize ignorance causes suffering because we are false that leads to a lot of challenges in daily life.
When we follow the path of Eastern wisdom, it helps us realize our wrong notions, and misconceptions, and awaken us to our real selves. The real self is pure consciousness of the nature of permanent peace, happiness, love truth, and wisdom. That is the highest meditative state, set by our masters. Listen, learn, contemplate, and reflect on the topics mentioned in the title, then practice regularly to move from ignorance to wisdom.

Transcript

This is done.

Yes.

So my friends,

Welcome again.

Real self,

That is our goal.

And the real self is gifted to us by the existence.

We always open gift,

You know,

When someone sends it.

But we have forgotten to open this gift.

Why?

Because we rely on the false eye.

We claim that the false eye is real.

What is the way to reclaim that real self?

You know,

So there are goals in life.

We have a desire.

So one desire for anything in the world is not present with us.

Now,

I don't have the money,

So the money will come from outside.

That is known as the desire fulfillment.

What about the real self?

It is already within us.

When we contemplate and reflect,

We find there is no reason to run in the world with anxiety,

Duality,

Conflict.

If we have conviction that this real self,

This peace and happiness is already gifted to us by the existence.

What do we are going to achieve?

We are going to achieve what we already have.

Are you getting it?

Desire for the real self.

And desire for money.

I don't have it,

So I have to earn.

Desire for clothes.

I have to go to the store to buy food.

I don't have.

Do you see the difference between the two desires?

From there,

The real journey of this Eastern wisdom begins.

Once this intellect and the mind has a conviction that this is already within me,

There is no reason.

And what I'm going to achieve by fulfilling the desires of the world?

Main goal is peace and happiness.

That is already within me.

You know,

This understanding comes step by step.

It is not a instant affair.

One guy,

Very well educated,

Software expert.

Indian guy went to a monk who had been working here in Intel for 25 years.

He's been a big guy.

Big guy means,

You know,

You have maybe a million dollars,

More than a million dollars.

You have a mansion.

So he went to the monk and he said,

You teach me and you teach me Gita.

So Gita has 700 verses.

Every verse is encrypted file.

It's a folder.

So to open it,

He said,

OK,

You have to spend another three years and I will teach you everything.

I don't have time.

I'm very busy.

OK,

Then I will pick up the last chapter,

The 18th chapter.

He said,

Master,

I don't have time.

I told you I'm extremely busy.

He was anxious.

He was frustrated by the response of the monk.

So 18th chapter will take a couple of weeks and after that you will know what the message of the Gita is.

I told you I don't have a time.

I have a next flight next week back to US.

So the master smiled.

He said,

OK,

Then what I will do,

I will pick up the 10 verses and that gives the summary.

That summarizes the message of the Gita.

We are always in a hurry.

Am I in a hurry?

You are always in a hurry.

So 10 verses,

10 verses will take about.

Guy said,

Why don't you understand?

OK,

I will teach you one verse.

No,

I don't have even time for one verse.

Can you teach me instantly?

Master said,

Yes.

From today,

Declare that you are not worthy of suffering.

That is the message of the Gita.

The guy who is already in anxiety,

Who is always running,

He is already suffering and he is not recognizing that he is suffering.

How he can get this message that you are not worthy of suffering?

Did you get it?

In stress,

I am searching peace.

That is the greatest ignorance we have.

And that is why,

That is why our message says So it says,

Lead me from the false to the truth,

To the real.

Lead me from the ignorance to knowledge.

Knowledge of what?

Self-knowledge.

We already know too much about the computer and other gadgets,

You know.

We already know too much about the computer and other gadgets,

You know.

We already know too much about the computer and other gadgets,

You know.

And we can find out the knowledge,

Information from the Google.

What exactly is the message of the Gita?

That as I am,

I am not worthy of suffering.

I am not made to suffer.

And that is why I have been asking you how many times you were upset since the last session.

Do you see that?

So,

So I said desire fulfillment.

I don't own,

I don't possess,

I don't have.

That is what the desire fulfillment is.

And the self-fulfillment which I already have,

Gifted to me by the existence.

For which I need a self-inquiry.

Why the master,

Did you reflect on this self-inquiry?

I am not saying others' inquiry.

I am saying self-inquiry.

That is the super,

Super,

Super psychology.

Moral psychology cannot beat,

Cannot meet.

So simple.

You cannot find anything like this.

Self-inquiry.

I have to filter out what is not self.

That is the way.

That is the way we use this self-inquiry,

We use the inquiry in everything.

You are driving me to your house.

I am lucky enough,

So you are driving me to your house.

And I say,

This is your house?

No,

No,

This is not.

This is not,

This is not,

This is.

That is the way of the self-inquiry.

That is the way of the self-inquiry.

So we have to understand those false notions we have created about who am I.

So now what happens?

So I have to,

I have to become aware the moment I wake up in the morning.

Mind unconsciously,

Instinctively,

Impulsively,

Habitually the moment I wake up,

I become aware of the world.

The mind gives a status of reality to the world.

Why I am not aware of the world as it is?

So what is the world?

There is a wall in the room,

In the space,

And the gadgets are lying there,

And the computer,

And the monitor,

And the honey,

As it is.

No superimposition.

Who superimposes I?

How?

Mind.

Which mind?

The mind that is,

That lives in ignorance.

Are you getting it?

Say yes,

Even if you are not getting it,

No problem.

We will get it,

That is the way of the knowledge.

Today we do not understand,

Tomorrow we will understand.

So the moment I give the reality status to this world,

Which is in constant flux,

Anything.

I see the body of a honey,

That is constantly changing,

Including this house,

This room,

This,

Everything is in constant flux.

But my mind says no.

Why no?

How it says no?

You are my love.

Come on,

Love is inside you.

So first superimposition,

First layer of ignorance,

So to say,

That I give a reality status to the world of people,

Place,

Time,

Relations,

Money.

My beauty,

When I see myself into the mirror.

My master used to say that,

How old are you?

So when I joined him,

I was 23,

24.

I said,

When you stand before the mirror,

See yourself after 60 years.

Ah,

Great beauty.

Grey beard,

Wrinkles in and around the eye.

Not able to walk properly or walking slowly.

Reality status.

I am not scaring you.

I know you will keep running the way you are running now.

What I have to do with you?

But understand the fact,

The truth.

So the first we give the reality status to the world.

How?

When you are marrying,

You know,

Next week,

I give marriage a status of reality.

I can give you a list of examples,

I am not going to.

Marry.

But keep on understanding the reality status cannot be given to the,

Neither to the marriage,

Not to the divorce.

Both are okay.

So the first superimposition that we give,

The reality status,

And then what?

The moment I give anything,

Any object,

Any person a reality status,

Mind divides and perceives.

Means,

Mind says,

Here you are,

Here I am.

Here you are beautiful and here I am with the beard.

I have already separated myself from you.

After giving the reality status.

Are you understanding?

It is happening here and now.

You need not to,

After the session you need not to practice.

It is happening here and now,

My friends.

It is happening here and now.

Somewhere deep inside the mind,

I see you are different from me.

I am different from you.

So reality status,

The separation that you are different from me,

You are separate from me,

So if you are good,

I would be,

I would love to be with you.

That gives me a joy,

Because I am searching for a joy.

So my mind,

After giving a reality status of you are bad,

I want to keep a distance from you.

So everything is playing in the mind.

And that mind is known as in delusion.

Delusion causes the ignorance.

Ignorance is the cause of the suffering.

Oh,

So you are also a delusion,

Why should I learn from you?

Ask that question.

Weird guy,

You are also a delusion,

You are also an ignorance.

Why should I learn from you?

That's why,

You know,

Sometimes I always say that science puts a hundred percent reasoning,

We put two hundred percent.

We don't want to evade any question that has a doubt.

So your master responds,

Yes,

I am also a delusion.

Eastern wisdom is an instrument of knowledge that removes the ignorance.

Guru or a teacher means guru,

Guru.

The word guru is a Sanskrit word,

It has two syllables,

Gu,

Ru.

What is the meaning?

Moving from ignorance to knowledge.

Moving from ignorance to knowledge.

It does not have a reality status,

But the knowledge and the truth has a reality status.

What is the condition in which you receive the knowledge,

When you have a sense of humility,

When you have a sense of receptivity.

This guy,

I told you the story.

No,

No,

You guy,

You teach me Gita just in,

Just in instantly.

When I'm already in anxiety,

I am suffering.

And the master says,

You are not worthy of suffering.

How can I remove the tag that I am suffering from,

I am not worthy of suffering,

If I do not have a humility,

Receptivity to receive and retain the knowledge.

That is why it is taking time.

Do you have any doubts?

You're hiding your face in the beard,

I have a lot of doubts.

You see,

I remember something that you need to understand.

You have seen many Indian monks,

You know,

Who shave their head and also their beard.

It's a symbolic representation,

They have removed all the quantity of ignorance.

It cannot be quantified symbolically.

All the quantity of ignorance,

As many hairs they have on their head and the face.

Symbolic.

Everything is understood with reference to the real self.

My friends,

Self-inquiry is the way,

But before the self-inquiry,

I need to prepare myself so that I can receive and retain the knowledge.

The guy who said,

Teach everything 700 verses just in a minute.

I have to take a flight next week to US.

I have a solution for everything.

We are jack of all trades,

Master of none.

We,

You know,

I'm referring myself.

I'm not referring to you.

We are not worthy of suffering.

How you recognize you are not worthy of suffering?

We see ourselves into the mirror in the presence of the sunlight,

We forget the sunlight.

We don't remember it.

Or by default,

We switch on the light and then we see.

In the presence of the knowledge only,

I can recognize what is false.

Did you get an answer why we have to do this self-inquiry?

We are awakening to that knowledge.

What is knowledge?

It is awareness.

What is awareness?

It is consciousness.

It is awareness.

What is awareness?

It is consciousness.

We have already uncovered the three layers of a gift.

We are face to face.

The real self knows the real self.

The consciousness knows the consciousness.

That is the journey of the Eastern wisdom.

So we have been undertaking this journey and we have reached to understanding of sorrow and happiness.

How we experience the sorrow and happiness in our life.

So first I give a reality,

Status to the world outside,

To a person,

To an event,

To a location.

Oh,

This is my house.

Welcome to my house.

As if the house will chase me when I leave this planet.

That means it is my house.

That is the meaning of my house.

What is the other meaning?

So you see that,

You know,

With a smaller font size,

My,

And bigger font size house.

What is the meaning?

That I live in a mansion.

Mansion we say?

It's a bigger house,

Stephen?

Or you put maybe 50 font size,

My,

And bigger font size house.

Or you put maybe 50 font size of my,

After that house.

It means the same thing.

You have given reality,

Status to the house.

You put the condition.

Putting any condition on the world outside,

Including our relations,

Is going to result into the second step of the superimposition,

The false idea and the notion that you are separate.

Then you are my love,

You are my honey.

It doesn't mean that,

You know,

Today you go back to your,

To your honey and you say that I have realized what kind of a honey you are.

This has to be awakened inside my head.

I have to awaken to this knowledge.

Understand it clearly.

You know,

We are trying to find out joy and the sorrow,

Sorrow and the happiness.

You know,

Where I get it?

I love this monitor which,

From which I am giving you this.

And if this monitor stops working,

Then should I continue to love?

It is conditional.

What is that conditional?

What is that conditional?

It is from the best company.

Again,

You are moving in a wrong direction.

What is that conditional?

I just explained to you,

Reality,

Status and separate from it.

What is wrong condition?

I married to a billionaire.

I'm using the marriage just to,

For an example,

Because when I give a reality status and I see the separate and I'm searching the peace and happiness,

I married to a monitor,

I married to a person or I married to a situation or event.

I'm not looking for happiness.

I'm looking for a relationship.

I'm looking for a relationship.

I'm looking for a person or I married to a situation or event.

You did not wish me for my birthday.

Why I did not wish because one year is gone.

One year of your life is reduced.

It's better not to wish.

Your perception,

The way you perceive the life.

Why to get upset on small things in life?

We are not worthy of suffering.

That is the journey of the self-inquiry.

We are discussing where wins joy and the sorrow.

First,

Reality,

Status.

That is also a wrong notion.

Second,

Then I see that it is different from me.

That is also a wrong notion.

Because it is different and separate from me and you are,

Or anything outside where I have given a reality status is going to offer me peace and happiness,

But it does not lie in anything in the world outside because it is constantly in flux.

But because of the delusion,

I am seeking peace and happiness and result we already know.

So we are constantly suffering.

What is the suffering?

Suffering includes grief,

Anxiety,

Actually busy,

Reaction,

Duality,

Extreme tiredness,

And include all the 3000 illnesses,

Mental illnesses,

Emotional and mental illness,

Psychological illnesses,

As explained by our modern psychology.

I had to read,

You know,

Five,

Six hundred page book of abnormal psychology.

I started thinking that,

You know,

Whether these symptoms belongs to me or not,

You know.

I left it.

But I had to,

I had to qualify.

I did my masters in psychology,

But I said,

No,

No,

I'm not going to study.

It's enough.

I know what I have to do,

Even in counseling,

When I was doing in India.

You are studying,

You know,

All those symptoms every day.

I'm not moving,

You know,

I got a new camera,

So it uses artificial intelligence to move my body.

That is another delusion.

My friends understand it clearly.

The world that I have created in my mind,

Then I perceive and project the world for seeking peace and happiness,

Is the greatest ignorance,

Is the third layer,

The pouch in which the real self dwells.

I have to remove that cover.

I have to remove that cover.

When I see the real self,

It is not worthy of suffering.

When I see the pouch,

The first layer,

Second layer and the third layer,

This is what is the reality,

Status,

Separate,

Seeking peace and happiness.

The mind is searching for it,

Where it is not.

That is the greatest delusion and causes and less suffering.

Last question and then we will start our practice.

Honestly,

Tell me how long you want to suffer,

Even after knowing and understanding this.

Why I asked you,

If your mind is thinking after this session,

It is still thinking and gazing itself into the world,

You have already given a reality status and you have given my talk a false status,

Here and now.

Do you think that you will achieve permanent peace and happiness?

You are not cheating myself,

You are cheating yourself.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes,

My friends.

Close your eyes and being comfortable.

I have been using,

I think I explained to you more than 50 different times,

50 different ways to be comfortable.

Pick up anyone.

How much conviction you have,

What you have learned,

It depends on you.

You see,

It doesn't depend on me.

Moving the mind and the entire body from the crown of the head to the toes,

Physical awareness.

Moving to mental awareness of sensation,

Comfort and steadiness.

I am just summarizing.

And continue to move the mind within.

I told you move the mind within.

I told you moving the mind within has a different meaning.

I add those,

You know,

Guides in every session.

That makes every practice different.

If you are a seeker,

You can recognize it.

Why should I use the word if?

We all are seekers.

So after the sensation,

Comfort and steadiness,

The mind settles in the space and the space is awareness.

Whether you see space or darkness or emptiness,

Whatever you want to say.

I learned it up into the space,

The infinite space.

You know,

You see that you might have seen here in our country that people see space and emptiness and darkness.

They talk about it.

Being carefree,

Another obstacle enters into the mind with unwanted,

Unwelcome thoughts.

Where is our understanding?

Do you see the knowledge is revealed in the practice or you are doing a practice?

You know,

You add something more in every session.

Yes,

Because I have to develop a next topic.

Why?

To help you reach to that state.

So lane one,

Unwanted,

Unwelcome thoughts.

That is the mind,

One function of the mind.

Second function is the intellect.

Intellect is knowledge.

It is an observer.

It is a knower that you have unwanted,

Unwelcome thoughts.

You separate it.

The way previously the mind has separated and given the world a reality status.

But now you are simply aware.

Lane two is a knower,

Observer,

Seer of unwanted,

Unwelcome thoughts.

Entering into the mind.

Don't reclaim them that they are mine.

That is so simple.

So what is going to happen?

The mind jumps to the lane three.

Where is the lane three?

Calmness and peace.

How come?

I am not only separate,

Different from the world,

At the same time I am not the world.

What it means?

Again,

Understand knowledge.

It simply means I got a gift.

I am not a.

.

.

The gift is not a wrap.

First,

Outermost layer.

It is not a box.

It is deep inside.

Existence has never made a fun of us.

They have really sent a gift of the real self to all of us.

You know in Halloween we bring the blank boxes.

And now we will use the mantra,

Sarvesham swasthir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swasthir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swasthir bhavatu.

Let everyone be happy.

So my mind instantly refines and redefines the phrase that we have used,

Let everyone be happy.

It is the blessing from the existence who has gifted us the real self that I am simply remembering.

I am making it very easy.

That you simply remember that you are the real self of the nature of happiness.

What we remember?

I have a lot of stress.

I have a conflict with reaction with this guy.

I have a long list.

I know you can play with the long list.

And I can tell you this long list is pre-recorded DVD scattered in your mind is the cause of your ignorance.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

Let there be peace.

May there be peace for all.

So again you see the language does not convey the knowledge hidden into it.

And what is the knowledge?

Peace is my essential nature.

And that is what I am looking in everything in the world outside.

Leaving aside the delusion of sorrow and happiness that we discussed today.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

Sarvesham swathir bhavatu.

What is the meaning?

Let there be completeness in me.

Completeness in all.

But why we say this?

Today what we discussed when we give anything a reality status we separate and then we start searching peace and happiness.

Why?

Because I feel limited in myself.

Desire means I made myself so crazy,

So small.

Even if I possess a billion dollars and still I feel I am reduced to not.

I am so limited.

You see that you cheated me,

You deceived me.

I loved you so much.

You see that?

Limitedness.

You are caught in ignorance.

That is why the master says,

Let me see that real self is complete and whole in itself.

All the different religions they talk in at the very surface level.

Holiness and wholeness.

We know it correctly.

Sarvesham mangalam bhavatu.

Sarvesham mangalam bhavatu.

Sarvesham mangalam bhavatu.

Let there be auspiciousness for all.

Auspiciousness,

Why?

Existence has manifested this word.

Inauspiciousness,

To remain inauspiciousness all the time.

That is what we are searching.

My friends,

Contemplation and reflection is required.

And now is the time,

Look inside the forehead in the space,

Look inside the forehead in the space,

Start gently Om Shanti into the space and start breathing.

Make sure in gentle breathing into the chest.

Expansion and contraction of the chest should be there.

Short breath,

Gentle breath.

And it is a quick and a fast breath.

Because the lower lobes of the lungs are smaller.

Keep on,

Continue.

The journey continues unabated.

No stopping in between.

If you stop in between,

Recognize the mind in ignorance is creating an obstacle not to follow the journey.

With a caveat that you don't have to follow the journey.

That you don't have any challenges of the heart.

And even if you have challenges,

I think in this group there are no challenges.

So keep on.

And stop it,

Recognize and accept the changes or the experiences they have.

It may,

Your experiences may include some vision and the colors and the flowers and the tingling,

Numbness and the expansion of the body.

Let it happen.

Don't crave for it.

It is not there simply,

Emptiness is there better.

Now we will go for the second breathing into the valley.

Keep on doing the Om Shanti inside the forehead.

You expand your valley and squeeze your valley with every inhalation and exhalation.

Here the science cannot explain.

We say it is the energy,

The life force moves the valley in and out.

We help our mind to rise in awareness.

Oh,

Is that so?

Yes.

Because below the belly button there are all the three chakras represents the center of survival,

The center of extreme desire for seeking happiness and the center of greed.

So we bypass those.

How?

That is what we are doing.

Continue with the body living in the state of sensation,

Comfort and steadiness.

If it does not remain on a given day,

It is okay.

You recognize it.

It will happen.

And stop this,

Do nothing.

So the moment you stop this kind of breathing you are aware of the changes that is taking place.

You experience.

You are going within.

You know normally in our country we practice meditation with a beautiful music and etc.

Etc.

Your mind is kept outside.

How can you achieve success?

How can you move into the higher meditation?

Now keep on doing Om Shanti inside the forehead in this time.

You are breathing long,

Deep and hissing and gazing both the belly and the chest.

You inhale.

Belly expands,

Follows the rib cage.

You exhale.

The belly squeezes and the rib cage.

Longer,

Deeper,

Deeper.

Longer,

Deeper and hissing.

With the hissing sound that keeps your awareness intact.

There is a reason.

This hissing sound has a particular name of the breathing practice.

And that I saw instead of using that name,

You know people have again the wrong notion.

That's why I am not using it.

Hissing sound.

Continue.

Now stop this.

Do nothing.

Awareness recognized.

And accept the changes that is happening now.

In that state you start breathing deep,

Silent and slow.

Extremely deep,

Totally silent and slow.

As you inhale,

Move the mind from the center of the head to the tailbone.

And while exhaling move the mind from the tailbone.

To the center of the head and the spine.

Two things.

Third point of awareness as you inhale.

The mind starts moving from the center,

Top of the head,

In the spine.

Singing mentally.

Om Shanti.

And the Shanti ends at the tailbone.

While exhaling the Om begins at the tailbone.

Shanti ends at the top of the head.

This practice in Tantra is known as the Nyaasa.

Now leave that.

We are moving at a very subtler,

Subtler level.

Now we will involve the mind in the semi-active practice.

That is visualize the triangle in the cave of your heart.

Om Shanti.

Shanti you know,

Every time you move the mind in a triangle,

Clockwise and anti-clockwise.

Dropping Om Shanti.

Om Shanti.

Om is nothing but the real Self.

It is a pure consciousness.

Take it that way.

Shanti means peace.

You already know it.

Self.

I see the real Self.

Unwrapping all the three layers.

And Shanti means wow.

This is the peace here and happiness here.

So when you are able to recognize the sync is complete.

Moving the mind,

Pushing the mind at the center of the triangle deep inside the cave of your heart.

Singing mentally Om.

Now it is the reverse.

That is the key.

What is the reverse?

Now Om is pushing the mind inside.

Mind seemingly stops and you drop the Shanti.

You have a conscious self absorption.

Where is it?

Ah,

It is an objectless state.

Objectless state.

What it means?

That is what I explained differently in today's talk.

All the objects are gone.

Object belongs to the world.

So then what is left?

Only the subjective reality.

That is one aspect we want to reach there by this triangle step.

Which is almost a passive step.

A passive step means it is all about the knowledge and awareness.

Do you see the way I see?

So the moment you discover unwanted and welcome thoughts has broken that state of absorption.

You can follow the same on the triangle and then sink and then moving inside into that state.

And now leave this Om Shanti on the 16 fingers.

And what exactly is unique in that step?

You don't touch the 16 points on the fingers by the thumb physically.

But everything is happening in the mind.

The mind is totally absorbed.

Recognizing the mind's eye,

Mind's touch,

Mind's ear,

Mind's tongue.

Everything is 10 steps.

What happens?

Just do it and we will talk about that.

Everything is happening in the mind.

So the objective world appears too far.

Mind is not interested.

Then what happens?

That only you can tell me.

While sharing your experiences.

Shanti Shanti Shanti Bring your mind on the right hand.

Your mind on the left hand.

Lift your both palms.

Place it on your eyes.

Open the eyes inside the palms.

Know your experiences.

We will share our experiences.

Why we keep this segment here?

Because everyone shares their experiences.

Some people cannot really express but they have the same experience.

Others have varieties.

So it gives a deeper insight.

How are you Steven?

Good,

Thank you.

The lesson for me today started off very restless.

And uncomfortable physically.

Then when you used the term in telling the story about not worthy of suffering.

It was like the switch went off and lane 1 completely disappeared.

I went into lane 2 and applied all the knowledge and all the lessons and principles that we learned.

By the time it got down to the start of the meditation.

I was just cruising in lane 3 the entire time.

There was nothing.

I heard you when you started that chant of Om Shanti again.

It went through like,

Am I going to be able to get out of this?

Because I am loving where I am at right now.

It's a beautiful,

Beautiful way of narrating the experience.

You see that?

Have you all heard we are not worthy of suffering?

Why are you asking?

My ears are intact.

I heard it.

So we all received the knowledge.

See how this Eastern wisdom works.

How this?

But I received the knowledge.

Did I retain the knowledge?

Did the mind has any objection to it?

Or the mind smoothly says,

Let me say this knowledge deep inside.

What is that knowledge?

That is real self.

This is what he explained in his own words.

And I am explaining based on the principles.

How are you Brandy?

Good morning.

Thank you.

I didn't want to come out either.

Beautiful.

Very beautiful.

You see that when the knowledge is realized.

So now the knowledge is realized in today's practice,

Today's journey,

Today's talk,

Etc.

Whatever you say.

What is the next step?

Whether this knowledge is settled fully or not.

When it is settled,

What it is known as?

It is known as awakening.

How are you Terry?

I'm good.

I didn't pause.

As soon as I have a thought,

I recognize it.

It's the same thing.

So the only thing is that I guess I got hung up on.

To be honest.

I never can really feel that I can find my heart's sensor.

I didn't really want to admit that.

But now I am admitting it.

I did find it.

Yes.

And I can see the triangle.

I just feel like I need more time.

Because I never usually.

I usually feel like I want more time to be in that part of it.

But I'm not.

I'm not stressing about it.

I'm just kind of exploring that area.

That exploring is the self-inquiry.

We should never leave that self-inquiry.

That is the first thing.

And the second thing that is clear.

Admitting,

You know,

This is what I want to do.

And this I don't want to do.

So when you admit.

That explains how my mind is working.

It has nothing to do with the likes and dislikes.

Understand,

This is the talk today.

Reality status separate from me.

So hence I pursue to experience peace and happiness.

That state of the mind needs to be dropped.

And that is what you do.

What you explain today in a different way.

That is why our master says a consistent,

Regular.

Journey to this will help us to reach there.

Now we will go to Sam.

Yeah,

I am.

With the seasonal allergy.

Okay.

But work through it.

And I felt,

You know,

An interesting.

Expansive and lengthening of my body.

Good.

During the meditation today.

That is good.

How do I explain that?

How do I explain this?

Now see what he said.

I was challenged by the body due to physical.

Due to the allergy.

My mind unconsciously has given already a reality status to the body.

That is constantly changing.

And I am seeking body.

You remain comfortable.

That is what the entire thought is.

I am not saying don't take care.

Care everything the best possible way.

But don't give a reality status.

Are you getting it?

This is what happens and this is the delusion.

But then the second part what had happened?

It was more expensive.

Why it was more expensive?

You left that delusion.

Mind.

Mind left that delusion in the meditation.

It went into that state of objectless state.

And from the objectless state.

It became totally expensive unlimited.

Is that unlimited real self present here and now?

Yes,

It is present here and now.

When you recognize it,

That is what is awakening.

Not a bit deep.

So we are like three people.

How are you,

Christina?

Good morning.

Thank you.

I felt very heavy at the beginning.

And by the end I felt light and also did not want to come out.

Good.

Good.

This heaviness pertains to the two layers of our existence.

One is known as the life force.

Acting differently on the physical body.

So sometimes we feel heaviness.

Sometimes we feel lightness.

And there was a moment of transcending that.

That was your new experience.

It's a beautiful way.

How are you?

And then we will go to Anastasia.

Thank you,

Sir.

I am good.

It's like that mind became almost quiet.

And it's like that I am more in presence than in my thoughts.

It was very calm.

Yes.

That is another way to explain.

You see that,

You know,

You have,

You might have read,

You might have encountered different teachers.

Someone says it is totally objectless.

Others say I have a beautiful experience.

Heart says that you should follow this approach.

These different approaches are based on the experiences.

The principles are the same.

That we need to understand clearly.

Otherwise what will happen?

As Weber explained in a very simple way.

And then Weber could start thinking,

You know,

Look at this girl.

She has a beautiful face.

She has a beautiful experience.

And I don't have.

I start the comparison.

Why I start the comparison?

Reason is today's talk.

Go deep.

You have to receive and retain the knowledge.

I give a reality status.

I give a reality status to the vision and the colors.

And then.

I am searching the same vision and colors in every practice of meditation.

And that is there the problem comes.

Yes,

We have two people.

How are you Anastasia?

I'm good.

Today I had a little bit different practice as usual.

Because usually I see darkness.

And today I saw a lot of white color.

Everything was white.

And the window was open.

And there were children and dogs and people.

And it was interesting how I felt deep.

Nowhere there.

But the outside world existed far away from me.

And I have noticed that the deeper I go in this journey.

Sometimes I get scared.

Like my fears.

My mind brings a fear.

And then I thought.

Who am I afraid of?

Am I afraid of myself?

I'm here on the cushion.

Everything is okay.

And I'm calm and comfortable.

It's like I'm afraid of being happy.

Something like that.

Yeah,

Yeah.

You see that her experiences tells totally a different type of story.

That I'm able to separate myself from the children,

The dogs and other stuff.

So what it means by separating?

Are they not separate?

They are already separate.

Are you not,

You know,

Physically?

Are you not physically?

You know,

Physically,

Are you not separate from me?

Yes,

I'm separate.

Then what happens?

The noise,

Children.

Why it disturbs me?

Today's talk will answer you.

I have given a reality status.

Understand it clearly,

My friend.

My dad is crazy.

I have given dad a reality status.

Dad is just a name in the form.

How are you,

Sangeeta?

How are you,

Sangeeta?

I'm fine,

Sir.

Ah,

She felt that it has just started and it is just finished.

That is another way.

What it means?

That is why the masters in Eastern wisdom says,

It's a timeless movement.

You have transcended the time.

That is how we need to understand these practices.

Beautiful.

Thank you very much for tolerating me and we will meet again.

Thank you.

Thank you,

Sir.

Namaste.
