JIM CARREY | Characters, Comedy, and Existence | TIFF Long Take 

Me too. I found the "teacher" and message that I think Jim was referencing in the talk (about what depression really is). It is a really profound: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KPx0nN6aQj0.html

Yeeeeah you say all!

That's the media for you🤷‍♂️

Yeah these guys are idiots. They can’t keep up with jim. They don’t even get some of his jokes.

so go look for it!

i want just the same

I would totally listen to that!

same good idea

Jacob Verbrugh That would be epic.

As much as I truly love Burr, it would be equally as interesting in my opinion to rather turn that into: Bill Burr needs a Jim Carrey-style Ego death, psychedelic experience and then just talks about his daily thoughts/opinions through the newly refined and polished lens of perceptive Truth, etc. .. Y'know, Talking about how when we truly boil down the essences of the human condition, that we're all ocean consciousness and single-celled organisms acting as the actual Universe that is experiencing itself through ethereal nature of both Time and Space. etc. I'd listen!

Yes, that deep rest from the character we've been playing..... Heavy.

Is that why breaking bad is over?

@@noahachremhuh?

I agree. Ive heard it said that depression is the soul's rebellion against the life offered to you

dc2010ist he actually just came out with a book :) it’s co-written with his close friend Dana Vachon called Memoirs and Misinformation!

I believe Jim’s thoughts are closely aligned with much of Eastern philosophy. The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle is a wonderful, very readable text that I would highly recommend. It has taught me more than I can put in words about how to deal with my own suffering I have experienced through life.

He got much of this kind of wisdom from a book written by Eckhart Tolle, called "the Power of Now." You can even search on youtube where Carrey talks on the podium at one of Tolle's events.

Hm, I like the idea of 'you're so busy pressing down all your anger and pain which you think you have no right to have that life becomes unbearable/too much' better. Deep rest, okay, but only if you stop pressing down, let it come up and out, own it, move on. It's a decision to pull yourself out of the mire. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Peace!

15:10

That was the segment on the RU-vid shorts that got me here! On point!

Thank you for this x

Yea no this doesn't apply to everyone.

He needs a podcast where he can just talk. I love his pseudo spiritual take on life in general. I could listen to him talk for days. This is one guy who hasn't sold out to the cultic-Hollywood machine.

You should check out his interviews on the Howard Stern Show. Howard is one of the best interviewers I've ever heard, and he provides a relaxed environment where you really get to know Jim Carrey. He has been very spiritual for a long time now.

My thoughts exactly, OP. He's a brilliant guy who can make you laugh and also make you cry. I hope he's around for generations to come..

I totally agree with you Andreas! Thank you!

@Cody Lakin hello

Yes. Jim is so intelligent, so deep

Read his book!

Reading their books is a great way to get to know their inner psyche

@@jimcarrey9032 this is either a deranged fan or a low key channel of his he watches from 👀🤣

So in other words, he's depressed. I was hoping someone else caught that.

Fun Times Many of us are depressed, old souls especially get very easily depressed

Yeah, but no, that’s not what depression is; that’s what a depressed person may say. I hope he gets better help than a fake “spiritual friend.”

@@livingashtree1942 For sure. I don’t think Fun Times was putting him down. But if a depressed person who’s been sold on dissociative disorder as a lifestyle recommends following what depression tells him, that’s not a recommendation anyone should take. How many regular people can even afford to walk away from their lives so they can just lie around all the time? One tip: the body, in order to maintain its health and strength, must move. That’s how the body is constructed. So to lie around being depressed is literally self-destructive. But hey, nothing’s real (to quote John Lennon under the influence of drugs and a questionable guru, something he renounced later); so to Jim, it’s ok to just lie there. Note that real yogis teach a many-branched tree of yogic practices, including physical exercise.

@@funtimes8296 nope he’s not

@Victory Mansions Hello Thanks for your lovely comment and support much love

@@jimcarrey9032 haha wtf

His high level of awareness combined with his charisma allows him to elevate any room he's in

The guy is so fluid with it, too. You can tell how natural, real, and unafraid he is. Or rather how much acceptance he has come to, of everything. It can look crazy when not to the level he is yet, but also looks as freeing as ever. To the point where a complete "Fuck it, man" is meant so honestly, sincerely, and caringly.

@@jimcarrey9032 the real jim carrey wouldn't have a random RU-vid account.

Jim doesn't exist

@@oldmate99 u too mate

I see it too. especially in the beginning of this video

I saw that as well, he needs to in order for the audience to feel “confortable”

Right on sarcasm makes me get

Yea, it's called sardonicism.

Ne May 👍👍👍👍👍

Ne May 👍👍👍👍

he is a murderer. he killed cathroina white cold blooded and premeditated.

Agree ...MrNemay...with everything you said...exactly...

@Catherine Louise Hello Thanks for your lovely comment and support much love

Nice! Thank you!

THANKS

Thank you!

Deadmau6 Polycon Hippy why you don't have courage if I may ask?

+Hippy _don't have the courage to let go and explore._ Giving a girl three STDs and the pills she used to kill herself when she found out is the source of the lawsuit against him and his exploration into no longer being the guy who gave a girl three STDs and the pills she used to kill herself when she found out.

@@WelcomeToMyDream ?! Huh? Jim?!

Dmt

@@WelcomeToMyDreamright? He did that to her

Now I have to google that speech! Thanks for the tip and hope you are feeling fulfilled today

Some Cynical Asshole ..... Exactly....Hes just a normal dude......like if you light up a spliff and start philosophising......BUT HE S FAMOUS......AND SOME idiots are freaking out.....But THE BIG MAJORITY we are just like him.....so its all good. 😁✌ .....

Thank you. Thank you. Right? I don't know why people overreact about a celebrity changing their lifestyles or outlooks on life. They are just normal people trying to live their way through life and got lucky to be able to have a job that pays them so well. But that doesn't mean they are any different or better than us. They can adjust and change their lifestyle however they wish just like many people do everyday. But I feel like some of the people that do overreact cling to celebrities because they look to them as idols and examples of how we should live. When we shouldn't. They are just people too.

I was thinking the same thing, and really don't understand why anyone is making a big deal out of it. I'm happy for him, and I enjoy listening to him but he just seems like a normal guy being normal.

Would be so sick

Joe Rogan is a fucking idiot and should be obscured by irrelevance.

I'd love to see him on Russell Brands podcast also...he's awake I get him..I think the ancients thought like this we've forgotten our spiritual power ..I feel the tide is now turning x

totally!

Alex Paliy great minds think alike.

Sounds like what they say about conspiracy theorists who really are people who see through the lies and corruption. Easier to call them crazy and try to discredit them than acknowledge the truth they speak.

@@bayleymacintosh5622 except Jim never went crazy. He's just happier

I got that vibe too. They seem very uncomfortable

“Let those who have ears hear” they just aren’t ready to hear everything he’s been saying yet.

of?

Noel K - I love how all the fake people are now waking up. STFU GTFO

aware of self

He isn't aware of everything

to me it seems more like he jumped from one crisis into a saveplace. some weird form of "spiritualism" like he couldn't handle a threatening nihilistic or exentialistic world and found just another hideout.

Yes, Non-dual talk in a cool way. I like the other non-dual talkers too.

True self? He says he does not exist...no self. "Selfness" is found when you have a relationship with your creator. I believe Jim is still searching...I believe God is waiting for him to seek for ultimate Truth which is that we are MADE in the image of God. We are not all this one consciousness thing. Dog doo doo is not god. Matter is not God. God is spirit and those who worship Him must do so in spirit and in Truth. Truth by definition is exclusive. "I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but by Me" ~Jesus the Christ.

curiousgeorge555 We are all still searching. The search never ends. We are the creators. We are God. Matter does not actually exist. The "one consciousness thing" is just another way of saying spirit, i.e. God. You're talking about the same thing as Jim. This whole reality is a dream created for fun by God, infinite spirit, consciousness, aka us. Also: Why is truth exclusive? Why would God create billions of different creatures if he didn't want them to have different perspectives?

curiousgeorge555 Since Christians tend not to like pantheism ("we are God"), I will offer you a thought experiment. Pretend you are God. You have infinite time, infinite intelligence. What would you do? Well, you would entertain yourself, wouldn't you? Perhaps play a game, pretend you are a little creature. Hey that's us! Well, isn't it not that crazy an idea that God with infinite time on his hands might pretend to be a human for fun?

curiousgeorge555 Hi. I grew up in a church. My dad was the pastor. I was taught that too. I graduated from Liberty University, a fundamentalist Christian College. I'm not saying you are right or wrong. It sounds like you are repeating what you have been told. It sounds like you have a well structured mental construct. I bet you can provide the biblical references for your beliefs. What's important is being silent. Inner peace means the mental arguments subside and eventually are gone all together. The memory of God returns to the quiet mind.

@Märta Elinsdotter Hello Thanks for your lovely comment and support much love

“Refusing to work jobs you hate to buy shit you don’t need”- a concept I’m trying to internalize. It is so hard to break out of that trance when it feels like leaving everything behind-- friends, lifestyle, “security”, etc.

Love the way you put it

@@shirahthietje1238 it's leaving behind the unreal and going after the real..... Real deep friends, a sincere lifestyle to who you really are, the security of not being the image you but the real you....... Good luck pal.

Did you write this in CAPS so it would stand out? If so, why? Surely you trying to be noticed in a youtube thread where you explain how you had the break through seems like your ego is still in control, no? If you feel the need to be noticed or considered then maybe the break through wasn't permanent.

Cypher Sessions - Belfast I "HAD" A BREAK THREW. KNOW I'M JUST A SELF A WERE A-HOLE ON THE INTERNET. I'M A TERRIBLE EXAMPLE. I'M LEVEL 4 NARSISIST. BUT AT LEAST I KNOW THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING. MY EYE SIGHT ALSO SUCKS SO CAPS HELPS ME OUT. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS INLIGHTENMENT. WHO IS BEING INLIGHTEN? "I" STILL KNOW THAT I'M NOT THE BODY . LET'S LEAVE IT AT THAT. PEACE.

Fair play for your honesty man.

“There’s no place like home.”?

You need to find Jesus my friend!

SmashinBeauty I dare you to stop wearing makeup...

SmashinBeauty your super cute

SmashinBeauty Yeah well, you might want to spend a bit of time considering how he treated his (now deceased) ex-girlfriend. It’s easy to spout self-serving ‘spiritual’ BS, but actions speak louder than words.

I agree, great to see he is finally showing his true self and ok with it. It's clear he's had a awakening of awareness and came out on the good side of it.

easy to take control of your life with millions of dollars and no bills to pay

i can teach you english :)

Nadia More ,probably in his own country , this is the internet.

Can I get an appointment?

Nadia More you look nice on the outside, but inside your fucking horrible.

You speak and type better than 1/3 of the people in the United States.

Lmao

Nice.

Ion Pavlidis that comment made me laugh. Whoever me is. Agent Smith - that's who we all are.

If you knew anything about quantum physics you would know exactly what he is talking about.

are you sure quantum physics is what you think it is?

I thought that as well. It's rather poetic, isn't it?

Probably anti depressants as he suffers ADHD and depression.

Often ppl don't care about anothers language, they have their own issues. Time some ppl just got over themselves.

Ego, character, or one's 'true self'. It doesn't exist, we've been forced (or so it seemed) to try to create it to fit in with the world and others around us. We just are, and one day will not be. So just enjoy it and don't let yourself get in the way.

it means the weight of the world doesn't hang on your shoulders, that every little thing you do isn't the end of the world, that what people think and say about you doesn't really matter, among other things. you don't have to expect yourself to be any certain way, you don't have to keep talking the same way or doing the same things just because that's what everyone expects of you. you can change. you can stop being uptight and seeing other people as 'strangers' and making separations between 'me' or 'us' and 'them'. the whole "oneness" thing is about brotherhood. it's about realizing you're just a damn person and everyone else is just a damn person, we all have a right to live and be alright and we're all just trying to get by and live the best we can despite our flaws that never fully go away, "ego" to the new age and psychology types and "sin nature" to Judeo-Christian types. I'm Christian but i was once deep into this new age stuff. it helps a bit, but it sure as hell isn't anything to live by long term. if any of these ideas appeals to you, know that Christ embodies most of these things and much more, and I'd recommend finding a good, relatively small church nearby to ask questions, and if you are brave enough ask about the path to salvation. it's good that you asked this question here at least. it's true, most of the time people are scared to ask because they want to put up this front like they know something tjey don't. that's the ego, that is characteristic of the self that Jim Carrey says doesn't exist anymore. there would be way less stupid comments on this video if this was more understood, if people asked instead of assuming they know that Jim Carrey is talking about nonsense. this is also presumptuous ego garbage. learn it a little at a time, though. Jim may have come onto too much too quickly and that's why he seems so out of it at times. anyway God bless, hope this helped.

It did help. Thank you for taking the time.

Ricardo Clemente Why made you become Christian?

He means all that exists is the character he has created. Same as all of us. Eventually the host (soul) becomes exhausted of it. Hence the non existence.

Beauty is in the eye of the bee holder...And apparently you're the one holding said bee:)

He looks like a Drug Addict to me, which he is.

Den V. How do you know that

He is because he is everyone and everything

agreed

That's not entirely true a "nobody" might be the most important person in their workplace, the constant pressure of that holding them down A nobody might be the most loved child in a family, constantly having to appease their elders. A "nobody" could be a homeless vet, trying to live up to the values he was raised on and trained to exhibit while hating all of it. Everybody has a role they feel they must play it isn't until you stop caring what people think of how you play that role are you free. Societal pressure is ever present, to all but the most reclusive of hermits.

Wait till you get a load of Me

Both are my favourite comedian actors of all time. Rip Robin Williams Gone but not forgotten

Both such a big part of my childhood, especially Williams

@Nanc Nicole Hello Thanks for your lovely comment and support much love

Not in that order though

ethan quirke He hasn't found what he is looking for , Jim like all of us needs Jesus Christ and be saved.

+JackofSpades That apparently helps your cult following my man, don't give it a miss.

Heidyn De La Paz what about Muhammad?

Kabe Miller What about Mohamed? He is just a crazy dude that invented this sect out of anger and he used the bible to get events and twisted them. Jesus Christ died for us to pay our debt to God the Father because the consequences of our sin is eternal separation from God which means eternity in hell but God doesnt want us to go there so He sent His only Son to die as a perfect sacrifice for the sins of the whole world.

underrated observation. i agree he was living to fulfill his dad's own unfulfilled expectations that he never really got to find out who he is or what he wanted from life. seems like for all the love Jim and his dad had between them, Jim never got to explore himself outside of what pleased his dad.

Yea,it's pretend..he wants to come across as enlightened

@@kingdaleclarke That is an easy assumption to make when it's coming off of your own perception. Did you know, King Dale, that King's are usually conquered and replaced by something else when they are no longer relevant?

@@Hawkenwhacker sorry if I upset you, just my opinion,Jim Carrey is far from enlightened..I wish him the best

Yeah he is

Me three!

Thank you for your message.

Yet he hates Trump

This is so absolutist that one could assume it is sarcasm, heh. Enlightenment is not a yes/no thing, and we all kinda are awarness itself, viewed from non-duality. A being 100% free of fear doesn't exist because there would be nothing to manifest on the material plane. They key lies in accepting that.

Lol, last line. Metaphorically speaking....god I loved the mask when I was a wee lass.

Jim Muncy Professional actor

His awareness and self-reflective understanding of, what's his ego vs who he really is, resonated with my views as well.

What he described though is inspired by hindu philosophy and not buddhist. That being said the difference between the two is very nuanced.

Random Coments.....Dude. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁Jims gonna kick your ass!!!!!!!!jajajjajajajajaja!!!

He looks like Percival C. McLeach to me!

Just because of his careworn face?
