The Short Cut Question 'Am I Aware?' 

Rupert is a great guide to follow other masters like him or even greater. Thanks to him and to everybody!

Yes. I need to stop watching the news and watch my thoughts instead.

Rupert Spira should replace boring boris. England needs a new PM.

Youre so beautifull (:

I hope you are doing okay now 🙏

Micah Forsberg it helped me to see that I am aware of being. 'I' is awereness and 'I am' is one step lower. It is the first perception of separation. Beingness goes when the body-mind goes, but awereness remains. Hope this helps.

Micah Forsberg whatever works for you man. This is good.

Floris - beingness and awareness are really kind of the same

Yeah, well, you're wrong.

There you go

Sound enlightened to me, as long as you are happy Paddy :)

Yes, the consciousness rises from the Heart (the Sacred, not the organ, but it is located there between the nipples). But you are beyond consciousness itself, beyond the I AM as Nisagardatta said. I have not realized this so i will refrain from saying anything more, just that you dwell on this.

Stop trying to get anywhere. You are already THERE. Just bliss-out man, feel the vibe dude.

No

The mind is asking. But ultimately there is no mind. There is only awareness, and the mind is simply its activity of thought. So awareness is seemingly asking itself, waking itself up out of its own dream of identifying with objects and losing itself in its own creative act, which causes suffering.

Dat z a wrong interpretation of Ramana Maharshis' statement.....

We've found that it's exactly 308 times, then you get the prize. Keep count. Or you could miss out on it. You have to be exact.

Natasha Randolph remember the infant that came into the world, knew no mind or body always had its needs met and trust that you always will. God so loves the world we came to witness this unconditional love, the only way it can, seperation and union again.

good question

It is a very good questions that bothers serious seekers of the truth. The " Am I aware " or Who am I enquiries may help sinking the mind in the source. Is this knowledge exercise meant to keep the mind for ever in the source like those people who shut themselves in the caves without bothering about the objective world? The video clips, although provide us glimpses of the Truth, do not help us much unless the whole process is presented and assimilated by us There are two stages one is recognising the true nature of the 'I" and in stage two recognising the importance of such recognition in relation to the world with objects. stage one. I think it would be convincing if an attempt is made to answer them without asking the questioner to believe on some unknown scripture for the replies. The questioner would be in a better position to appreciate the answers if the replies are such that one can test himself in his own direct understanding. They are three items s involved in the question 1. you the questioner/seeker 2, the world with objects ( entire creation) and 3 The so-called God or creator or whatever you name. Of these 3, in the order of proximity, the questioner is aware of himself and the created world he observes as something outside him and as regards the third, he only imagines or infers that here is a God or creator. The answers for the 2nd and 3rd lie in the first one only if the seeker correctly understands his true nature. By knowing the truth about himself, he recognises that the 2nd and 3rd ones are nothing but himself. In order to understand the truth about himself the seeker must have a strong desire and preparedness for deep contemplation and also set aside all the concepts he accumulated regarding creation and God Now the seeker attempts to know himself. When he sees anything outside his body it is an object to him and it is obvious, at this stage, that he is not the object. In the next step, he looks at his body and notices all its parts as objects just like an outside object is separate from him. That is why he calls them as my leg, my hand etc implying that he is separate( again at this stage) from them. Extending this observation, he recognises that he is not his mind, thoughts, feelings etc and they are all objects to his subjective awareness which is not an object to anything. Here he should be able to recognise that there is no form to this awareness and when once it is recognised that it has no form it is infinite and not limited to his body alone. ( to have a feeling of this, just imagine infinite sky in that awareness. This is not an action. Just feeling within that awareness )This is a crucial stage. Recognition in oneself this infinite awareness will unfold the following truths Since he is this infinite awareness - it is implied that there is no beginning or end to that awareness. Since his childhood, there is no change to this awareness though the world around him has been changing-his family, his body and everything. But all through, it is just same awareness. This recognition should not remain as just an intellectual understanding. It should be direct and irrevocable. It is something like a rocket going out of earth's magnetic pull. Just like the rocket does not come back into earth's magnetic pull once it goes out, the awareness does not find itself again limited to the body only. In a way, it becomes the default state of the seeker. One indication of this direct recognition is that the seeker would be in a state of absolute Freedom- nothing to be feared of, nothing to be achieved, capable of accepting everything as it comes with equanimity. When once the seeker is convinced about his infinite awareness, now the question of objective world or so called creation could be addressed By careful observation of his relation with the objective world, he recognises that the world is not outside his awareness and it is nothing but awareness. To drive the point home, one example could be given initially. The seeker recognises the world in his dream in all its variety as if it is outside his awareness. But on waking up, he knows that there was no dream world except his awareness. Now, can we say the same of the world in waking state? What is the relation between awareness and outside world in waking state? How does a seeker would be aware of the world? It is through the knowledge of the objects. There is the knower ( seeker), the known (object) and the process of perception. When the knower looks at the known it results in the 'knowledge', as the knower and known merge in the 'knowledge.' which is nothing but awareness. Any seeker is aware of the world through his five senses only. If he touches any object it ends up in the in the knowledge of the object. Similarly tasting, smelling, listening , and looking. In all the cases the 'triputi' ends in knowledge/awareness. Thus, there is no world outside this awareness . The same thing could be put in a different way. A seeker is aware of the world through thought. What is a thought ? what are its contents? When one thinks of anything is there anything other than awareness in the thought ? When one looks at or thinks of an apple a thought arises in the awareness as knowledge of the apple. We cannot say that there is only awareness as there is the knowledge of the apple also.in awareness. But does any change take place in the awareness with the knowledge of the apple.? No change at all. It can be said, that thought is like a wave in awareness and not separate from awareness as a wave in the sea is nothing but water. But in actual wave one sees a form of water but in actual thought, there is not even that change. Thus a thought , at the most, is a wave-like appearance in awareness without any change in awareness. It can also be understood with another example. A child of less than two is watching a cat. His mummy has not yet taught him that it is a cat. What happens in the awareness of the child when he looks at the cat. Simply awareness and not even a thought of 'cat'. I think the point can also be better explained with another example. One is holding two lighted candles in his hands. and when he waves his hands in different directions the candle light takes different forms of shapes. and comes to rest when he stops. In all the shapes that the candle light takes it is candle light only that exists and nothing else. Imagine the individual awareness is like the candle light and when one looks at different objects in the world the awareness only takes the shape of objects. Where are the objects (world) separate from awareness? Thus, the individual (BMI), the world and the God are nothing but a thought and a thought is nothing but awareness and all there is is awareness only.

You have to try a lot. All the time you can. Watch videos. Meditate. Make this slowly your primary focus of attention and you will begin to generate a kind of gravity field. In time it will stay with you

Vrsarma Podury​ before 'I' came MMM awareness. 'I' came as a child in seperation "look cat".

Jedenfalls Leute aus Dänemark 🥀

@Rae Ray jon bernie is a great teacher. John butler also.

You're not ready sir. You must DO IT exactly perfectly 308 times to 'get it'. Don't miss out.

Dee M The answer is that there is no answer

Edit: I get it now 😂

How 😂

will you forgive him your illusion of separation? Are we not all the same One?

@@forsbergmicah haha :)

Your resistance blocks you from seeing what he truly delivers..

I came to this realization also. Simply insert "is" after I AM.

@@SusanSBradley YEAHHH!! Then you might appreciate this version of the Gospel of Thomas 25iomb2inafk28vsyu3mqxdf-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/Gospel-of-Thomas-for-Awakening-for-website.pdf Are you familiar with Nisagardattas's 'I AM That'...there are several free pdf on the internet...

Exactly, this is want he meant. "I AM the Alpha and the Omega, I AM the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father (Source) except through me (The Self)." It is incredible the twisting that it was done to his words and message. But everything is according to God's (Source) plan.
