Transcript
Hold us all this is Josh Dibbled of integratingpresence.
Com Walking on the English countryside now in June 2023 This is just a quick intro That I wanted to kind of preface this beautiful This is called a Dharma talk,
Dharma talk by Randy She sent me kind of privately and I've got it approved to publish now What makes this really unique is that she hasn't studied a lot of the formal teachings In a way most people have and therefore she doesn't have like the same kind of language But it points for pretty much the same thing and this is a great new angle.
I feel and of course it comes from Well self-discovery,
I would say I mean,
Of course she has some Exposure to formal teachings and text but not much so the language she uses is unique and My heart really leaped up when I heard this So this is a continuation Or an expansion on two videos.
She recently did on YouTube called Metaperspectives on energy and consciousness and Then on the depth of mindfulness and the practice of being harmless So check these out on her YouTube channels.
The last ones on the higher order density one Channel and then the first one Is in the how future communities if you just search Randy green with an eye on YouTube You'll find her three channels.
Just look for around June time 2023 to get the expanded perspective on these Sorry,
I'm a little winded from walking for a few hours.
So oh And one more thing I want to emphasize if someone's in a rough place Maybe it needs to be prefaced with an emphasis on care.
She does mention care I find that needs to be more emphasized in this in my personal opinion Especially to those going through challenging times when your message is like kind of insignificant and I don't mean Anything in the world.
I mean she uses a lot more heart filled language than that But this what notion that some people call emptiness It's kind of the more popular term for it But what is really the kind of flavor of that the essence of that is actually this Most people call it compassion and she mentions a few things.
She mentions care to me.
It's a deep heartfelt quality of care Kindness all the great heart qualities we can have so I just want to overemphasize that if someone's kind of bleak on their outlook on life especially Sargadatta Maharaj quote I love something like wisdom tells me I'm nothing Love tells me I'm everything between these two my life flows okay,
Sit back and enjoy this and see that it is at least in my opinion quite unique and really Touches deeply and profoundly and you'll get a new perspective way of viewing some of these teachings That will add on to those public talks and be even shorter and more direct in some senses The exercise I did which I coined the another exercise whether or not that's true As I said,
But I'll just repeat it a little bit with a little bit more expense Extensive explanation is that the the idea is that we via our five scanners Go in and interpret situations we process information we we we make our perspectives of these situations via our different forms of Conceptualizations lots of fancy words,
Right Of how we've interpreted the situation we build a kind of a sense of self within that situation where we either Explain what we did was right or wrong or how it relates to us or how we relate to the situation or other people And in that we get energetically entangled Via all of our thought processes our Interpretations and the type of energy we use in that interpretation and in these thought processes meaning that if we exercise Harmful behavior then that becomes the energy pattern in our emotional field if we exercise loving-kindness Then that that's type of energy that's built into our emotional field.
So the whole game is of course in mindfulness practices and in the both the the everyday lived Mindfulness and our observances of what we do and what we do not do and how we respond to these situations is the understanding of the Energetic Implications it has on our fields So that's the that's the true for me the true understanding of mindfulness is to understand.
These are the energetic consequences of our choices and the way we choose to respond and by that create that Chain of reactions that goes with the initial event and the way we choose to respond to it not our actions but the way we choose because it's the choice that instigates the The picking of energy our choice determines the type of energy that we're utilizing and then that leads to the actions that leads to the reactions that leads to the chain of Entrapments let's call it that instead of calling it karma so the whole point of the the exercise and the the dissolving of all of these rising and and Falling Dynamics as it is.
We know we understand when we go in and see everything as energy.
Then we also understand that all of these Choices and incidents and events and thoughts and processes and scandals and everything is just energy So if you put it to the meter perspective where we see everything as energy We also understand that that's not important for who and what we are because technically when we go into everything is pure energy There is no I that determines what's right and what's wrong.
There's just energy there's just a rise and fall of different forms of energies and Then the next step of that exercise is to go in to be absorbed in the understanding of this is just energy fluctuating energy that shifts form That comes in different ways and and we can write with it or against it or not at all And then once we begin to understand these dynamics then we go in and and do the same with our scandals and in that Dissolving of the scandals which we understand the tools of perception tools of interpretation tools of how we conceptualize things All used to build a structure around what we perceive to be Us as a being as a living being as someone who exists Within this reality field and once we understand that Then we dissolve the scandals and the sense of self within the scandals and the ideas and the entanglement It leads to that ties us to our choices because our choices is made from an idea of this is me This is this is important to me and with that understanding that we say well,
This is important to me We also understand that that me is Not really a valid structure in the terms of Energy that fluctuation changes form because with that we also understand as I always say that our I or me is a tool similar as the scanners and With that understanding we can dissolve that tool we can remove that tool we can for a period of time just be Energy and that where we go into the body understand the body's not really either the everything is not real in the manner of that it it is exist eternally and Whatever we come down to is that the only thing that really exists eternally are the cycles of energy the Calpus It is the different realms.
It is the construction of the cosmology itself It's not the beings that are in it they are an expression of different forms of energy different experience expression of different forms of consciousness and as we go into that understand we also understand our Fleeting moment in time that we are just like the wind that we are Not important that what we cling on to is not important that the relationships We have are not important that what we find to be our Creations are not important what we what we have expressed is not important either since everything is just energy when it comes down to it and In the understand that we don't really know what consciousness is other than we can see it expressed in different forms and different Variations how it interacts with energy and by that understanding of this Whatever that is the dynamics the energies that creates these transformative processes.
That's the best way I would go in and express consciousness is that it has the ability to work with energy and create transformative processes From where we get new opportunities to develop different forms of Hoist those fields Perception levels or whatever it is Which we again understand is just another cycle that has a beginning that has an ending that rises up and ceases to exist And with that also saying well is the consciousness as we understand in a prevailing consciousness there's the same as you go through all of these cycles of existence arising and falling and Calpas and Cycles of energy and what have you and we also understand in that Where we just become fluent energy and we also go into the understanding of being fluent Consciousness as an awareness that observes the rise and fall We also understand that that in itself is also something that really has no origin that really has no Eternity to it because that's changeable as well So the whole point of that exercise is to go through all of our concepts of where we think That this is me or this is the eternal essence of me or this is something that is important or this is something that has a position or this is something that matters and go into the exercise where we realize that None of it is important.
None of it matters.
None of it is something that gives us the the Self-identification points where we can justify our existence because we understand that in essence We are not in control of our existence in essence that our existence is not Determined by what we do and what we do not do so the whole exercise is releasing all of these chords of energy That we have created to puff ourself up to be something that's important to puff ourself up to be something that is more significant than others and Once we understand that we are absolutely insignificant That we do not matter in the great scheme of things We also understand that because we don't matter then we also have that sense of How can we go in and say okay since I don't matter and I'm significant Then why is important for me to take the responsibility of my choices if I'm really not Significant if I really don't matter as a fleeting moment in time as a leaf in the wind as a feather That just floats on the behalf of the wind and whatever's going on around me Why is that important to understand that a feather can weigh a ton?
Because the actions of the feather wherever it goes can have these ramifications that you know The ripple effect as in the butterfly effect that this is important that even though I do not matter It is still important for me to be responsible for my actions and my The way I perceive energy the way I work with energy and that's a bit of a conundrum I've not got any answers for right now.
The only thing I can say is that when I touch That weird conundrum that weird Dichotomy of Non-importance and at the same time taking a huge responsibility for the understanding that even though I am not important There is still an importance in how I utilize energy even though I'm a completely insignificant What it does is that it activates my heart field in a very profound deep Caring Love And For me,
That's that's the that's the another exercise where you go through all of these where you move from the significance of the head and How the mind constantly tells us why we are important Into the understanding the mind understands It's not important that we are not important and nothing exists forever and thereby.
There's no need to uphold the importance of Creating all of these ideas or why we should be or should not be the eternal self and all of these kind of things that Goes with the mind the mind is the master of the ego and go into the insignificance of being absolutely humble and nothing Nothing but a feather but that feather has this beauty in it and And That feather is light and that feather follows the flows of the energy of the world and with that I Can't explain it why it does that to me It's not something I do but when I connect to the feather and the feeling of being the feather and being is insignificant then my heart goes completely into an enormously high vibrational rate that gives this feeling of complete and utter kindness and complete and utter Love is not the right word,
But it is this humongous huge heart that gives the true understanding of Existence and what existence should be all about
