@nicowong2428 11 месяцев назад

i enjoyed the comment about "you can't just give up and let's see what happens". things seemed to not be working before and i heard some spiritual people say things like "when all hope is lost, one becomes enlightened" or "when one gives up, one becomes enlightened". i think that helped to an extent, but it also enabled a very very sticky "i give up", lazy, no-heart, no-effort attitude and identity structure to ALL OF LIFE for like 4+ months for me. also a strong belief, doubt, and skepticism in enlightenment was formed. only like in the last few days have i started to rid of it and gotten a huge rejuvenation in my energy and joy - Thanks to Angelo

@benkelley84 2 года назад

A great interview. And so paradoxical! She speaks of losing the egotistic me-centered way of living and also talks about being grateful, being curious, still feeling the pull of the ego centered self and wanting to explore what reality is! If there is no “I”, then Reality is simply exploring itself and Monica’s sense of consciousness is along for the ride.

@nicowong2428 11 месяцев назад

stil so valuable; "enlightenment", "buddha", "buddhism", "meditation", all these `spiritual` ideas became extremely strong fixations in my mind. not to mention, stream enterer, non-returner, arahat, boddhisatva, next life, past life, etc. merit and karma too with a lot of guilt and shame related to "good" and bad actions; and fear related to rebirth and hell like she said my mind was filled; went through a big heap of deconditioning like she said not to the mention, this whole idea of a "path" from point a to point b; or not being on the path vs being on the path (which started to really get enmeshed in right vs wrong, fear, guilt, shame, despair, etc.)

@kbshrink 2 года назад

Hi Angelo, this talk really resonated with me. My expectations were so far out, both for the awakening experience itself and for the effects I’d experience afterwards, that when it happened I downplayed it and told myself that couldn’t be it. However the identity shift and other realizations that I had continued. My point is those seeking to awaken really do need to throw away expectations as much as possible. Monika is great and down to earth and very wise!

@marilynhaverly570 2 года назад

I loved this conversation! I've been shedding the drive to "be productive" that I grew up with. It seemed to come from a deep sense of unworthiness and pain and the element of curiosity was totally missing. A few years ago I read A Curious Mind by Brian Grazer and I felt myself open in a way that was new and exciting. My Buddhist practice has encouraged the 'investigation' of experience in a helpful way for several years but a sense of heaviness can still be present and at times I've felt discouraged by my efforting. For me it can feed into an unhealthy way of questing for peace and connection. These days, I feel a oneness with people and nature very much like the description here. The very real sense that we're all one is at once liberating and also challenging. I do believe continued relaxed intentional curiosity will help me know how to be in this world.

I haven’t watched the video yet but I definitely relate to the title. Such a weird “thing” to realize that what I’ve gone around the world seeking is my very being and I’ve never not known this. I’ve never not been this and yet I was looking for…what? Haha Reality has literally been the very nose on my face (so to speak.) The difficulty for me is the apparent yo-yo “seeing” of such a simple fact. What even is “struggle” or “difficulty” when it’s just what’s actually here, wide open without boundaries, without friction? I really don’t know.

Although good to mention I admire her persistency and hard work. It’s the opposite for me! I know I just need to look closely! but instead I get easily distracted by more conceptual knowing, searching, and understanding! which I know it’s just my ego’s effort to escape the death and exposed truth…But anyway, I know when it’s supposed to happen it happens…what else is needed to do anyways?!

“Practice enlightenment” that clicked! This is a sweet, relatable funny account of her experience. Thank you and Monica so much for sharing this and trying to talk about it. It’s funny how you hear a tiny little thing and you’re not always sure what it was but this time it was the description you two tried to explain…”practice enlightenment” I know you’ve said it before but I heard it this time. It does feel very much like a dream at times. Somehow the visual view is instantly different BUT not from outside it’s instantly altered from inside-it immediately passes but it’s undeniable. Also for now, you two helped me understand and confirm I am ok with this “not seeking” thing per se. Even though I still meditate as often as I can because its where I first discovered where to look-it’s just like home for me for now. But now instead of coming out of my meditating time and white knuckling the job of adulting out in the world, I just go around asking myself can you let go of the selfing going on in this second? Just dozens of tiny little experiments during the day. That’s what I’m doing. It’s exciting and frustrating at times but wow. Thank you two!

@kknkkknk1 2 года назад

Hey Angelo, can you please expand on how the message of "non practice" might be unhelpful from someone who is identified with "not doing anything"?

@SimplyAlwaysAwake 2 года назад

if you have a genaral avoidant tone in life then non-practice will just endorse your tendency to avoid the discomfort of discovery of what actually makes you suffer

@birgit8996 2 года назад

The funny thing is that there is nothing that knows what is happening... it just happens... and there is also a knowledge that cannot be put into words. It's like knowing something about yourself. Everything happens... just this. Also the thought that comes up.....why at all, one tries to explain what is right now....which basically just is. Who recognizes this and what is surprised about it? It's like self-knowledge as what is.

@swhite8381 2 года назад

The awakening experience here appears to deepen further and further . I see that what I really am is actually more like what I originally thought was the background of everything. I originally saw that everything was just happening and also saw that there is no individual inside the body but for a long time the energy of being SOMETHING was still strong. So I could see there was actually no one but I still operated as an individual, I felt individual. And then out of the blue I will just have a deepening of the seeing of emptiness , or of the aliveness of consciousness . I can’t even explain but maybe other people will be able to relate . Having profound realizations but if you say the realization out loud it’s the exact same information you realized already, just deeper 😆 I feel like awakening never ends does it? I wouldnt want it to end . And also it’s so intricate. You can have so many profound realizations about so many different things . So just when you think you’re fully awake you are shown that no, no you aren’t 😆

@subject_5056h 2 года назад

Interesting. Sometimes I wonder whether I am looking for something I already realize, which would be such a joke. I also tried the breath meditation for some time but never liked it because it was so mechanical, so artificial. Later I discovered Ramana and asked myself who I am, but thanks to you I realized this method is also kinda lost on me because I already know I am not this body and these thoughts. I've been aware of my awareness for as long as I can remember. This makes me feel kinda cheated by the whole Spiritual Industrial Complex. I'm just looking for a way out of this deep suffering and disillusion with life. Did a lot of shadow work over the past years, it's amazing to see all the conditioned shit bubbling up. Don't know where it leads to but I just let it all happen. Life pushes me in this direction very clearly, but it's such a hard and painful place to be in. Sometimes I literally feel like I am in eternal hell.

@SimplyAlwaysAwake 2 года назад

I’m guessing that initial shift hasn’t occurred for you yet, but I can’t be sure. However it’s an important insight to realize it’s not the big payoff the ego has been looking for, because that endless seeking (even if spiritual) is largely (but not exclusively) the cause of suffering. The shadow work will pay off for sure but a shift in identity is critical (seeing unequivocally that you are not what you take yourself to be). :)

@subject_5056h 2 года назад

@@SimplyAlwaysAwake Thank you so much. I realize the endless seeking and expectations are causing the suffering, but my mind just cannot let go of it. I have not realized the shift yet. But I think I may have had a glimpse when I woke up one morning about two years ago. I hugged my wife as per usual but this time it felt like I was hugging myself. Everything had this quality about it that it felt like me. I felt extremely relaxed, where usually I feel always so contracted. Everything felt so light and refreshing. Lasted only about an hour.

Thanks so much for this video. I find myself in it. The only thing I find kinda confusing is Monica describing her inquiry asking "what is mu? Who is thinking?" and waiting for something happening. Thats exactely what I am doing every day. So, just to be sure that I didn´t get anything wrong out of your videos on self inquiry, is this not right?: Ask "who or where am I" an see what comes up. Maybe there is a thougt, okay, let it go. Then ask again who am I? And so on? Until it gets somehow "silent" and then rest there...? Many thanks in advance :-)

@SimplyAlwaysAwake 2 года назад

Yes that is good approach but it’s critical to also recognize in those moments the subtle thought “I am resting here” “I am waiting” etc. In my book the chapter on awakening describes a somewhat different approach in regards to thoughts, this is a bit more incisive when it comes to penetrating thoughts.

Even though I know there’s so much more to “this” the bottom line is, I love them and I wanna help them experience the pain of life without all the suffering. The more I grow , learn, heal and experience this…the more I can help. 1:01:04 yes! It is bizarre. Love you guys and really loved this conversation. ❤

Doc! Thank you for all your videos, they help me not feel crazy 🦄 Wondering if you have made a video about the very real hazards of everyday life functions while blissed out. For instance, I'll be taking out the trash, enjoying the morning trees and birds. Then a panic thought comes in and asks, "are you wearing pants" 😂 Or when driving, remembering that you gotta drive safe. Etc... Time doesn't exist, so getting to work on time is sticky. Thanks in advance for any insight. 🙏💐🤘💕🥂🫶🏼
