Seeing God In Others
by Yair Sagy
As the year draws to a close, our focus often turns to time—marking endings, beginnings, and the passage in between. But what lies beyond time? In this meditation, we explore the timeless realm, a space where the cycles of minutes and years dissolve into an eternal now. It’s in this infinite stillness, free from conditions or boundaries, that we experience the fullness of being—where nothing exists, and yet everything is present. Join us in discovering the freedom and beauty of moving beyond the constraints of time. In this session, you’ll connect with a state of profound presence and completeness, a celebration of existence unbound by clocks or calendars. Step into the infinite and uncover the truth of timelessness within.

So welcome again everybody and let's start.
And the subject that I chosen to focus on today is called recognizing the other as God or recognizing God in the other,
Doesn't matter how you say it.
And before we go into meditation about it we have to clarify a few things.
So first of all when we say God,
Yes so God is a word that people have many connection and association with.
So just to clarify that when I say God what I mean is infinity,
Is all there is,
That's what I mean.
So that's first of all.
Now from my understanding the only way to see somebody as all there is is to see yourself as all there is and to understand or to get it in a direct perception that you all there is and the other all there is is the same all there is.
And this requires a lot of awareness and commitment,
Okay,
Because all the reality that we're living in is actually not contradicting it but suggesting a reality of duality that is me and the world,
Me and myself.
So if we want to see other as everything,
We must see myself as everything otherwise it's impossible.
Otherwise it's another thought that I see somebody else as a divine expression or expression of the divine.
So it's a thought.
A thought is not really an experience because thought changes.
But when you have direct experience of that then it's so powerful that you don't forget it and it's become real,
Completely real.
So let's first of all emphasize the meditation to make sure that we ourselves can realize and feel that we are everything.
You can call it God,
You can call it pure consciousness,
Whatever word we give it because it's beyond words.
When we go very deep,
Very deep into this state of being,
It's obvious really because that's the reality,
That's the truth.
There is no other truth because it's just like this.
It's like when you look at the Sun,
You see the Sun.
It's just like this.
When you look at the wall,
You see the wall.
It's just like this.
So when you are in a way cleansing all the level or the layers of the mind,
Not through psychological inquiring or something like this,
But through going deep and deeper and deeper into I'm not this and I'm not that and I'm not this and I'm not that.
So who am I?
And then there is no really word to answer because there is no word.
So that silence is who we are and that silence is not the silence of not speaking,
It's the silence of before the words because it's where the words are born from,
That silence.
So this is who we are,
This silence and that is before everything and it is after everything and it's always is.
When you are experiencing this being,
So when you look at somebody else,
Obviously you cannot not see that it's exactly as you,
But it's not only a person,
It's the whole creation.
It doesn't matter if it's a star,
A dog,
A human being or a plant.
It's all the same or a cup of tea.
It doesn't matter because it's all one energy that has infinite manifestations.
So the work is really to connect to that no-thing being or no-mind being.
It doesn't mean that the mind stopped functioning,
But it means that we stop identifying with the mind.
That's really what it means.
Okay?
So it's still doing its things and you know when we'll start to do into the course that I said we're gonna start soon.
So that's exactly will be the focus to learn to pay attention to all the subtlety of the mind that us as a human being we continue to in a way experience it although we realize that we are not that.
But it doesn't mean that the mind stopped being,
Doing its habit,
Habitual kind of talking,
Habitual trying to pull into the ego.
All its habitual things continue but to a lesser extent and we are less affected by it or less taking it seriously or less pull back into its drama.
This is really what's happening.
Okay?
So enlightenment doesn't mean that we are not affected by the mind or the mind stop working or the mind stop presenting its a conditioned existence.
But it means that we are not so bothered by it or if we are bothered by it we can pay attention to the pain that that's illusion created in us and we can dissolve it.
But there's much more space to move in the infinite,
In infinity.
Much more space.
Okay so let's dedicate this meditation to acknowledge exactly that.
Let's just pay attention.
Let's see what's going on.
And most important is to pay attention to the fact that we pay attention.
Yeah?
Meaning to start to separate immediately the subject and the object.
Yeah?
The one or the place from which we paying attention and what we paying attention to.
But not identify again with the what we see.
Yeah?
So it's not my breathing is short.
Yeah?
There's a shortness of breath in my being or in being.
There is maybe sadness.
There's sadness in being.
There's maybe happiness and love.
Whatever we find.
Yeah?
We don't attach into it.
We observing because we are the space.
So let's pay attention and really emphasize that space in which things are manifesting.
Yeah?
Let's really try to identify that space which we are.
Not what's in the space but the actual space.
Again people might have different views.
Not views but different experiences.
I can only share what I'm experiencing.
Maybe I hope it's useful for you.
So for me I'm recognizing the space when I'm bringing my awareness let's say from the area of the third eye into what we call the heart center.
Okay?
Then the mind immediately is finding a lot of space.
A lot of space.
Okay?
And then I know that this is actually a portal.
It's not it yet.
But through that portal in the center of the chest the mind and the heart will expand more and more and more into that infinite space.
Okay?
So let's bring the mind into the center of the chest.
But this but is very very important.
And we acknowledging as we do it that we are not this little person.
Yeah?
So this center of the chest is in the physical body but the awareness is that I'm infinite.
Okay?
So the mind is touching a point in the center of the chest that allows us to feel actually that we are infinite space.
Another image is if you go to a sauna and you want it to be a bit more hot you put water on the rocks.
Yeah?
And then the steam goes.
That's the image or the sensation when you in a way pour the energy of the mind on the center of the chest and then the heart expands it to infinity.
So this is the space.
Infinite space.
Mind and heart infinitely expanded.
Good.
So now when we have this expansion being kind of acknowledged we can start to look at what in the space which we are because maybe some of the things that are in the space are not comfortable.
Yeah?
Maybe you we had a difficult thought or a difficult encounter or anything that we're facing that is not easy.
So although the space is very very nice and infinite inside the space maybe there is sadness,
Maybe there is anger,
Maybe there is some discontent or physical discomfort.
Things that are not comfortable for us as human being.
Okay?
But we can help a lot by harmonizing those things so the physicality or the humanness of our existence will start to synchronize even more with the infinite boundless being which we are.
And then we're going to feel very very well.
So what we do for that we focus on whatever bothers us,
Whatever makes us feel uncomfortable right now and we're inviting that area either it's emotion,
Physical discomfort,
Psychological discomfort to synchronize with the heart.
To synchronize with the infinite space which we are.
Always remember who you are.
So although the tendency is always to identify the person that's the huge transformation we're going through that we're moving from this defaulted identity into different identity.
I'm infinity as a human being.
Okay?
So to help more the nervous system synchronize with that infinite blissful being which is available for us let's pay attention to vibration.
Okay?
So just as infinity while being conscious as infinity pay attention as well to vibration in your body.
Anywhere or maybe everywhere whatever is easier for you to perceive and then invite vibration to synchronize with the infinite being which you are.
Let's invite the mental activity to synchronize again with the infinite space which we are.
So you might feel some tension from thinking in your brain,
In your head.
Again you are not that thought,
You're not that sensation,
It's in you.
In your infinite being it manifests.
And then you're calling that sensation to synchronize with the infinite being which you are.
And now let's specifically invite the whole front of our body like it's a layer yeah and go from left to right or right to left the whole front of front of our body to synchronize with infinity especially if you feel vibration if you see vibration yeah if you see colors whatever you see that is a bit agitated invited to synchronize with infinity which you are.
Okay?
Let's move on the front to the middle of the body again transverse from left to right right to left yeah and then we're inviting the middle of our body to synchronize with all there is.
And then the same let's do with the back of our body yes so it's the back but it's also the back of the arms the back of the legs so it's like a transverse layer all along the back of the body that we inviting to synchronize with the whole creation always remember that your mind your awareness is the purest energy there is okay so we expanding this purest energy there is awareness to the whole creation and then we're inviting whatever we choose to synchronize with that yeah but if we pulling this awareness and kind of locking it on to something small in the body we creating a lot of tension so as much as possible we keeping always awareness infinite okay in order to see life or somebody else as divine being the heart must be activated so let's now invite the heart chakra to open up completely and to shine like the most beautiful beautiful Sun from the center of your body into the whole creation so by the heart expanding the whole creation illuminates with such a bright powerful light and as you allow that to manifest allow your heart to experience love hence the whole creation transformed into an ocean of love wonderful now when we feel synchronize when we feel that we are all there is that our body is infinite our mind is infinite our heart is infinite our whole being is all there is from that place let's connect with our mind to somebody else somebody that we love dearly and as we're being with this person they just imagine that we are embracing that person and that infinite being which we are in a way melt this person to the same quality yes so we transforming into two beings of light of love that really what connects us is love and the love is not our love is the love of creation it doesn't matter anything external there's only love in our exchange let's add another dear person to that to that unity that we feel with the first person we chosen and we're just adding them into that field of love and now let's try and to invite somebody that we have some and difficulty with that we have some maybe disagreement or even like negative exchange as we do that please don't bring the story and again shrink your existence into the little person stays the ocean of love and just see that that person its essence is exactly the same as yours and like this if possible maybe we can visualize all humanity and the same essence of love with endless manifestation of body shape or way of being etc ok so just to summarize that in order to see somebody else as expression of God or divine expression you must see yourself like this and in order to see yourself like this in a way you have to dissolve in the truth of who you are which is already all there is and in order to do that normally we have to do some process of synchronizing our human existence with that which we are anyway and much love to everybody and thank you for joining so blessing for everybody have a beautiful evening or morning wherever you are
