Rupert is a constellation builder, because every time I listen to his teachings, he puts another colorful star in the sky of my understanding. Thank you Alan for sharing these shining stars in word form with us.
Alan, I just want to take the opportunity to thank you for these beautiful compilations you create. I listen to them most days and get something new from them every time. They help bring me back to my true nature and have really made a difference to my life.
It's really quite shocking when you finally comprehend it. It also holds up to scrutiny as well. Wonderful, beautiful, and if we could stop our identification with our thoughts and opinions, we could accomplish great things on this planet. Peace All.
Pure AWARENESS is pure Possibility vibrating as forms, ever appearing anddisappearing without influencing AWARENESS. Thank you, Rupert, thank you, Alan.
Again and again, thanks to you Allen zu put these short inspiring compilations together! I love listening to them doing my yogaprctice first in the morning, delicious!
Alan/ Rupert, youre videos are so calming snd relaxing i keep falling to sleep 😪. Can you put some heavy metal or techno music in the background please ❤😂😂😂
This is one of the best talks you have most kindly posted here on this site. I have listened to it over and over again, and am listening to it now. Thanks, Alan.
Thank you. I really got it, suddenly, with respect to no dimension and how I have been superimposing a spacious quality to it as a stepping stone, and suddenly having that superimposed concept disappear. It really leaves me in a state of freedom and watchfulness. Again, thank you.
@@alanneachell9092 Yes, it is inexplicable from the average human state of consciousness to understand his immaculate quality of perception. And, upon encountering his teaching and conversing with us, at that lofty level, we become more and more aware, striving to continue with full confidence in him, and his methods. Coming from the old schools of massive discipline and concentration, entrenched in those methods, watching his ease and his absolute encouragement and confidence in us, non-judgmentally, is such a relief and stimulus to continue in this vein. Also, we just can’t overlook, he is giving us this clarity in the format of complete mastery of the English language. Therefore, he is able to create wire-thin distinctions in his explanations, that others were not endowed with. And, in addition to all of the aforesaid, add to that his magnanimous heart, love, compassion and dedication, committed to making it as easy as possible for all to understand, and avoiding the pitfalls that he encountered. I think that about covers it. Oh, and he is just an all-around amiable chap, with a pleasant disposition.
I experienced something like this a long time ago, when I was about 14 - I was not a conscious seeker by any means, but I was trying to hold onto or experience, the sense that I was on this planet earth and that there was nothing but emptiness above and below and that if I fell off the earth I would plunge into this nothingness for ever. For a split second, it seemed as if a vast void opened up and that I was about to be annihilated, and at the same time, a split second of pure terror, which brought me back. I didn't realise at the time, what that was all about.
Thoughts are ultimately made of consciousness so the title is even a subtle duality, our thoughts like to pretend they are reaching beyond themselves, it is just the ego pulling our leg. Just love each other and be compassionate. Trying to stop the mind will only make it more active
When we rest in and as awareness we don’t instantly know the mind of god,we just become quiet, we never cease to be a finite entity. Is there yet another layer that we can go ‘back’ to reach the knowing of true infinite awareness and ‘know the mind of god’, or does this only happen on death of the physical body?
When we recognise ourselves as awareness or presence at first it may not seem like much. Some even find it boring which reveals that there is still a mixing of the direct experience of presence and the old idea of individuality. As we acknowledge the truth of ourselves more and more we may start to have moments where no finite entity can be found because there is no finite entity other than the idea that there is. As the recognition of what we really are becomes more stable, we loose our apparent finiteness and love and God are recognised as being the same thing.
@@alanneachell9092 thanks for your reply! Does this mean that King Lear can know John Smith and ultimately King Lear disappears altogether without the death of the physical body?
@@kennethwilliams4169 King Lear can't know John Smith via King Lear (ego) as King Lear is only an idea. John Smith discovers that he was always John Smith. We come to recognise that when we say "I" we are referring to John Smith. We don't have to wait for the death of the physical body.
@@alanneachell9092 thank you Alan this has been a sticking point for me I didn’t quite get it, I thought there was a hard barrier between the finite mind and the infinite mind of god/awareness, I will re-read your replies, thanks again!
So, it's as if there are two presentations of the single reality. There is a seeming reality built on concepts that claim time and space and cause and effect etc. Then there is the actual reality of raw data. The raw data is our direct experience when we put aside all concepts and look nakedly at experience. We find that there is only the here and now and when we look for here we can't find it as a location and when we look for now we see that it's not in time. Without time and space there can be no cause and effect. There is nothing wrong with the seeming world of concepts of time and space and cause and effect, but it's a very poor and limited translation of what is given by the raw data. Hope this is helpful ❣️🙏
Where thought can't go? No surprise that our house philosopher Rupert Spira knows so much, everything, about realm beyond thinking. This man is a shameless contradiction.
