Of all the multitudinous online notifications I am subject to, the only one which generates true excitement in me is a new David Godman video. Thank you!!
So nice to hear and see you again David....Your words are always so inspiring to me. I believe when a person,s heart is endowed with sincerity divinity prevails and the words go deep into the heart. Over the years i have heard your talks many times mostly on ramana M and it always has the same effect...A deeper commitment to the path of awakening...thank you again David,Your presents is needed by many,Hope to see you soon...Perry
As a Buddhist nun/advaitist, follower of papaji, and bhagavan, I really enjoyed this video. thank you David. You yourself have also had a very interesting life
Dear David you are indeed very lucky to met papaji, sri nisargadatta and lakshmana swami. I am also very lucky to meet and talk to all these saints though your eyes and your mouth. Thank you.
I watched the entire video. I smiled, laughed and even cried while watching this video 🙏 I have no words of appreciation for this video and you sir. I know it is my good karma of the past that have brought me here to you. 🙏
I can listen to this man whole day!!...Whatever he utters I'm always all ears...And when he talks about Bhagavan omg what to say!!..Just one request Please upload at least one video per month.🙏
Namaste David, even though I wasn't fortunate enough to sit in the same room with Papaji still I feel extremely blessed to have found your YT channel, books etc... thanks for your precious service. 🙏
Honorable David, I won't go into any detail on my recent realization of the self, but I have been trying to retrace my steps through this incarnation and make sense of it all...because this expansive state seems so familiar the more I marinate in it. I have come to recognize that, like Papaji, I spent great swaths of time in awareness of self as a child. It explains my distant and unattached disposition that my parents and teachers complained of, and my distaste and unwillingness to participate in the "game" of life from a very early point in my development. Now I see that I wasnt "zoning out", but rather "tuning in". Thanks for your devotion to this most noble topic, and for your continued teachings on the life of these great saints. God's peace to you, Brother.
Thank you so much. It has been a while since sitting in Papaji's living room... Thank you for keeping the stories alive. We can still be touched by the fragrance.
Jussi should install a camera in David’s house so it broadcasts 24/7 any of the talks he gives to the visitors. Thanks to both of them. There is never enough of this kind of videos!
Blessings dear David! Thanks so much for everything you do but must of all for the gift of having the possibility to listen to you! (Hope your recovery went well and sending you blessings from Italy)
Papaji's vision of thousands and thousands of his lives was enough of a tale: his memory of the green incarnation was enough of a tale... and so, in the end, was Papaji asking to bring the Buddha in which ended up being a deeper layer of a sentence that seemed deep enough. And here we are ~ mighty grateful for your collecting these, David, and for your humble recounting. Time and distance slides away and so do differences of religion. ☯️ Imagine that. This slow plodder on the spiritual path feeling fine about exactly where I am after hearing this. ✨🕉️🙏📿🦋💙🛸 Namaste, everyone.
Thank you so much for spreading such jnana. I feel i am not lucky because i couldn't be in the direct presence of such realized figures like Papaji or Ramana Maharishi, but thanks to you, atleast i can read or watch their teachings! Truly grateful
David you have been a Godsend for me and your work in making these masters known to the western world is simply phenomenal. No wonder you were ordained for this job. Through you I was introduced to Bhagavan, Papaji, Nisigardata and Annamalai Swami. Your writings on these great souls will help countless no doubt till the end of this cycle 🙏🏽 May Bhagavan bless you and guide you home...your task is done
I know very little about Papaji, but I love your talks and manner of communicating David, and am looking forward to viewing more of your videos. Thank you from a fan/friend in the Netherlands, Europe.
Every time I slip from the path your stories renew my faith and my self enquiry. I emailed you a while ago David and you took the time to respond which I really appreciate.
Thank you, you speak "words of truth", they immediately talk to the heart and clarify many insights. Your semplicity is strong as the depth of your wisdom and bring grace.Really a gift!
David, you shine no matter what. Thank you for all these stories, there is a power conveyed beyond words, it helps us to connect with the heroes of your stories
the very first minute shows all of these things coming to him, like they just fell into place naturally. one just led to another. i feel like this is the power of letting the Self choose for you instead of making decisions in day to day life. i hope my Self will be easier to realize soon. my life cannot ever be the same again
Dear David so glad and happy to hear you again. Your narratives are the best. We hope you continue for a long time and remain healthy. Stay blessed by Ramana.
I am very thankful to David Godman because i listen to him a lot. learnt a lot, got to know a lot. Hes amazing, its because of David that i got to know Pappaji. He himself has gained so much knowledge and I have learnt a lot from him. Thanks David.
I just listened to your talk on batgap again! Your talks are so great and transmit the essence of our teachers! I see you as a Jnani also! Keep sharing with us! Thank you!
Excellent video David. BTW we met some years ago at the ashram. Everything i learnt about Ramana Maharshi and the place around his ashram were through David Goodman's videos. Good work David. May you always be healthy and happy.
David Godman Michael James and some other individuals worldwide sparkles around Papa ji and Ramana Maharshi. we rebirth from last many lives. that cat or squirrels or any other must relate to someone's every life and all connected. we can understand that some plants were here before dinosaur as ancestors of dinosaur through us. priceless
Please make video on Nisargadatta Maharaj. There is very less or all most no stories about what was going on around him during his satsangs. We will love to hear stories about him as well. Thanks.
Thanks David - Good to hear and see you again. I found this both interesting and very inspiring, not least Papaji's rather provoking viewpoints about spiritual practice "kicking enlightenment in front of you", as opposed to realising that everything is already in you in the present moment.
Papaji's assertion that no one deserved getting his final teaching was pretty crazy , no matter how cool he was. ✨ David's humble, detailed descriptions of Planet Papaji are even more appreciated under the circumstances. These videos about him have been fascinating if anything.
Despite having the desire for freedom and awakening, having read about it, and have heard many satsangs on video, I’ve never had the opportunity to be in the presence of an enlightened being; and I feel that without having that experience, I will never be liberated. Papaji seems to be the last one. Sure, the truth lies within, but without the help of the external guru, do I even have a chance?! Thank you for sharing this video. 🙏❤️
Thanks for all the video's David, hope you can make more as they are always so insightful. And wow, does that story during the cricket match ever put things in perspective, thank you.
Most this is covered in David Godman's three volume set, "Nothing Ever Happened". Well worth the read, but without the interesting video clips. Highly recommended!
Welcome back, David. May I say, we have all missed you. Could you please do videos a little more regularly. The level of clarity and the amount of insights you have given me and other devotees, can never be put into words. Sri David, Thank You, and most of all, Thank You Bhagavan 🙏
Tbh I'm just grateful that he's done so many and that he consents to interviews as often as he does. Perhaps look on RU-vid for them. It's a lot of work posting videos tbh. Paz y luz.🕉️💫📿🙏
THANK YOU Please, could you also share more details on Sri Lakshmana Swamy, his teachings and your days with him? The one that is available now in the series is very brief ..
Savithri you should buy Davids book "No Mind, I Am The Self" from his bookstore. Sri Lakshmana Swamy teachings are all in there. His teachings are the same as his Guru, Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. Which is 'Self Enquiry". Hope this helped 😊
