Why is there evil in the world? Does it have its own source of existence?
Rupert explains that consciousness can only know form through the localised or limited perspective of an apparently separate subject of experience, the finite mind. But the finite mind doesn't realise that it is only a temporary localisation or an apparent limitation of infinite consciousness - it believes that it is a self-existing finite mind - so it thinks i can hurt another person without being hurt itself.
All the acts that we consider to be evil in society are acts that are generated by people who have a deep feeling of being separate. What we judge or describe as evil behaviour always has its source in the sense of separation. But evil doesn't exist as a source which is independent on its own. Nothing has an independent source. Ultimately, the source of everything is consciousness or love.

Evil is not a thing of itself. Evil is a label we give to behaviour we find horrifying or disgusting. Rupert is pointing out that these behaviours we label as evil are the result of ignorance of our true nature. So, the explanation of why people hurt each other is an example of this process.

@ priscillabeauchemin4752. I'm afraid, I have to strongly disagree with that view. Not quite sure, what made you say that. Rupert's view on Existence is an old religious view, which is based on childish assumption. If I were to tell you, I can get apple juice from oranges, what would you say? Because, that is exactly what Rupert is saying without realizing it. What Rupert is saying, is, that, all sufferings, all unloving qualities originally come from that which is inherently all love and non-suffering. Only under a religious or a spiritual ideology, can such childish, insane claims get a free pass. It is untrue. It's a WRONG understanding of Existence. What is not within, does not and cannot manifest as the without..consciousness can only manifest what is within. Be honest. Don't fall asleep in narcissistic self praises. Do not misinform yourself. When you misinform yourself, it is consciouness that is misinforming itself. Look around. Nature is full of violence pain and suffering. Why? Because that's what Nature is within its Own Psyche. All the pains and sufferings, are the itches and impulses within consciouness ,that, had to manifest. What is not within consciouness, cannot and does not manifest. What Consciousness needs is self introspection deep into its Own Psyche as to why it has all these itches and impulses to manifest, rather than indulging itself in self deceiving notions about Itself. We can never be too careful if it concerns the Absolute True Nature of ourselves or Existence as Is in Itself.

@Buddhishgirl 6 месяцев назад

@@joajoajb that's interesting... I am far from being able to explain this as clearly as Rupert or other spiritual teachers I like, but all these itches as you put it are arising in consciousness but consciousness itself is not them. It is what experiences all of these itches, movements, etc. As a person, the more itches, false beliefs, etc. that we have, the more they obscure consciousness, which than cannot manifest as it would naturally. The manifestation, as already mentioned, is done through a limited form - our body-mind- so if this form is solidified into its conditioning and false beliefs, these will be what will manifest... until they are dissolved through, yes, maybe introspection, but introspection is done from a person or ego standpoint, consciousness doesn't need to introspect, it is not the psyche. Maybe someone will get what I mean and be able to clarify, I don't need to convince you, but I am interested in clarifying my understanding. Hopefully, others will give their input. 🙂

@joajoajb 6 месяцев назад

@@Buddhishgirl when you deceive yourself, it is consciouness that is deceiving Itself. Defining consciouness as all peace, happiness or infinite love come from the old religious ideology, defining the deity God as all good and all loving...etc. And, giving all the bad, undesirable qualities to a nonexistent ,imaginary entity the Devil. Under Rupert's religious ideology, that all good and all loving deity God becomes an all peace and all happiness consciousness, and, the Devil becomes mind, or finite mind. Rest of the doctrine remains much the same, except for the packaging. It's a WRONG understanding of Existence. Even in this presentation, he again tried to blame a nonexistent entity, the finite mind as the source of sufferings. He said, the sense of separation is the source of evil or unloving activities. No, it cannot be like that. The only Source is consciouness in this case. It is consciouness Alone, that, starts the sense of separation. No one else!! This is a form of self deception . Consciouness cannot and does not start anything that is not within itself. You do not get suffering from non-suffering. No matter how you twist ,turn and distort. Only what is within can manifest as without. No suffering within, no suffering without. When you deceive yourself, it is consciouness that is deceiving Itself. Mo one else and nothing else period. Consciouness has been deceiving Itself for far too long, to perpetuate its Own desires, itches and impulses. It is consciouness that either enjoys or suffers its Own itches and impulses within its Own Psyche. No one else, and nothing less. No devil, No mind, No finite mind, no big self, no small self, no higher self, no lower self...etc. These are all forms of mental disorder, that, consciouness vibrates within its Own Psyche. No where else. It is consciouness and consciouness Alone doing the whole show. It is consciouness and consciouness Alone that gets liberated from its Own itches and impulses. No one else and nothing else. NONE WHATSOEVER!! The only way consciouness gets liberated is thru self introspection. Not indulging itself in self deceiving ideologies, notions, or Self deceiving, schizophrenic and narcissistic self praises and worships games. This is why, it's Never a good idea to mix religious ideologies, concepts or terminologies with any reasonable model of Reality. It is bound for self ignorance and self dishonesty, which are two main forms of self deception. Oh, How long will you go on deceiving yourself? When will you ever introspect yourself? Look around, countless life forms are screaming in pain and suffering from the top of their lungs to absolutely no avail, while you're busy deceiving yourself, boasting and bragging how peaceful and infinitely loving. Eternity or infinity means absolutely nothing in self deception, other than condemning itself to an eternal damnation as the history of life shows. You slept enough. One can Never be too careful if it comes to the Absolute True Nature of oneself or Existence as Is in Itself. You take good care of yourself!

“Evil … is perpetrated by people who have a very deep sense of separation” Respectfully, what a BS answer. Evil does exist Every year millions of children suffer through no fault of their own, and often through no fault of anyone else (eg natural disasters, disease etc) I was hoping for a good answer but all he did was string together a ton of unsupported and underexplained claims. It’s frustrating how often seemingly eloquent, vague, and feel-good woo woo, however logically indefensible, passes for a good answer.

@kyle4234 3 месяца назад

There is no seperation in the universe. There are no seperate entities. Seperation is an illusion propagated from ignorance of the absolute truth to reality. This is eternity. Once you realize beyond all doubt that you are all that exists in this world, you will realize suffering, pain, death, life are all like clouds passing in the sky-ultimately ethereal, and unreal due to their transiency. The experience is all that there is, but the memory of it will be lost within eternity. When you realize you are both the doctor and the cancer patient, both the murderer and the victim, both the tsunami, and innocent children drowing, you will realize what Rupert speaks of. There is no seperation. There is only hide and seek. Neither of us exist beyond the temporary egos which have culminated from eternal cosmic imagination. To believe that there is a perpetrator and a victim is to still be lost within the mirage of duality. If you say that i defend Rupert because i have some sort of attachment or bias towards him as a "teacher", i will say that this image before me, (rupert) carries no more meaning to me than a passing stray cat. He is just a mirror image, another ego wandering this dreamscape. There is nothing special about him, aside from the fact that he is one of those rare characters in your dream who tells you that you are dreaming.

The Other is also Oneself & "The Trance of Unworthiness": I have great respect for Rupert, and/but as others have stated, his offerings come through his own particular lens of consciousness. Even he has admitted that no teaching is perfect or complete -- including his own. The one aspect that he has never addressed directly due to the kind of audience he attracts, is that if we take the basic abuser/victim duality, the emphasis is on how one treats others. But equally pernicious and vicious is how this manifests within and towards oneself. I can say this with some "authority" - I've been dealing with decades long chronic anxiety/depression. I live by "ahimsa" (non-violence) towards others, animals, insects and even plants. And yet, the inner violence (sense of at times almost being literally damned) towards myself persists. Tara Brach coined a phrase that can point to the essence of this: "the trance of unworthiness." Where does that come from? In this sense Rupert and those teachers in the same orbit are correct - a sense of separation. However... The "other" can also be oneself. And while very rocky, this does push me to consider that whatever drama and viciousness I still am seemingly addicted to, there is essentially NO difference between its manifestations outside of oneself (war, crime, and all the other horrors we keep recycling over "time") and what or how one treats/perceives oneself to be. To take a classic example: Did the Nazis or the Jews attract each other? (One could use any number more current examples, paradoxically Israeli-Gaza), but let's go with the most used one: --- Did the former manifest their own self-contempt by acting it out on the latter (kill off what one judges as others) and/or did the latter attract the former for the exact same perceptual distortion - except in reverse (be killed by one's self-judgement acted out through others)? Otherwise put, what is projected and acted outward ultimately is simply a reflection of how one perceives and judges oneself to be. "As within, so without." Which Rupert and other teachings point to in their own way - the separate self thing. These dynamics happen all over from the minute to the huge, and have been going on for eons. May we all at some point let go of all this inner and outer madness. And everything I've written here is also imperfect and incomplete. But it's my own stumbling journey in trying to wake up, somehow.

@sandycarter5300 6 месяцев назад

Because I completely relate to "your" struggle, here are a few conclusions I've reached. 1.) Rupert uses the terms finite minds continually. "He" makes constant references to the localization of consciousness. These are both false and quite impossible. 2.) There are no nazis, no jews. There is no this one or that one. Impersonal "programs", literal programs, downloads run continually, and these comprise the sense of consciousness that arises with the belief in subject/object. This one false sense of life, this virtual reality is all of its programs. You are not addicted to any of it because this "you" does not exist. Nor does the apparent "other". You are, and can only be, Awareness, undefiled, pure, whole, indivisible Awareness. The one Consciousness begins to recognize that it is not the impersonal narrative that runs. That is merely false identification. Nothing is ever personal. Nothing!

It leaves me to postulate that ultimately only the questioner can answer his own questions; what other people say is just information to play with.

@carlavela7106 6 месяцев назад

The Universe is the Mind of THAT that we call God. An Infinite Mind. That Mind is Consciousness. So Consciousness apparently in the Dream it imagined that it fragmented itself into tiny particles (Big Bang)or atoms or starseeds, etc To be able to experience each part of the "creation" that's a Dream in the Mind of THAT/God the I Am. It imagined that it's a finite mind called ego. Ego is a mental energy imaginary unexistent. Only useful for navigating this movie-illusion that is a Dream. The Infinite Mind apparently contracted itself into tiny particles, but with this it provoked to forgot its True Divine Nature. Becoming unconscious and unaware of its origin.

He says elsewhere that separation and apparent evil is the price non dual awareness pays to experience anything at all. From the highest perspective that is a fair price. From a human perspective it can never make sense.

@menemme 6 месяцев назад

If you are dealing in absolutes then Rupert is 100% right. Truth is, only consciusness exists. Period. HOWEVER, as long as duality only is perceived (that would be 99% of us), within that duality one must recognize the emergence of a seemingly separate second force in opposition to the Self and a plethora of gods and evil spirits (Ramana Maharshi stated this clearly). Jesus, Buddha, and a long list of Saints have all faced a battle with an external force whose sole aim is to maintain you bound to the material world as the only reality. Christianity has called that force The Adversary (Satan). Its existence is very much necessary. It is very real as long as you live in duality and even though you have attained jnana moksha, liberation etc... while living with a physical body, you still have to deal with it. Just part of the Lila.

You cannot have a dual, relative world of experience, where everything is 'good', anymore than you could have a world where everything is left, or everything is up, or everything is cold. Cold in relation to what? It is like wanting a one sided coin. The opposites define each other and are ultimately all conceptual anyway.

@rikkikeen1859 5 месяцев назад

Please help me understand. To me it’s clear as humans we have the capacity to bring about a more heavenly or hellish reality albeit in flux. So not a static utopia but let’s say harmony. How do we square non dual awareness and value or action without falling into moral relativism or inertia/doubt? For example in Christianity, we are all children of God but through baptism people then believe to be one with Christ and “saved”. I know I’m not being particularly clear but I’m feeling unwell. Thanks

@timjonesvideos 5 месяцев назад

@@rikkikeen1859 I'm just some guy and definitely do not have all the answers, but... my take on it is there is an absolute or transcendent realm, which takes on the appearance of an 'apparently' relative world, in order to have experiences. In the transcendent everything just 'is', there is no experience, no good or bad, birth or death, no separate individuals or any distinctions at all. So perhaps the goal is to be in the relative world, but not of it (ie, to realize it is play, but also that we are definitely subject to karma while here in a physical body). It is a paradox.

@fcz32 6 месяцев назад

Rupert says no such thing as demonic forces? Does Rupert believe in what would appear to be souls or beings that exist in different apparent realities? If consciousness localized itself and resulted in ego, what’s to stop it from having created Lucifer for example? Why can there not be gods or powerful (relative to humans) beings with egos and whose reality is intertwined with ours as humans? I understand it’s all a big game/illusion and everything traces back to Source, but how could he or anyone know how deep the game goes?

@13hills 6 месяцев назад

I wouldn’t say that he doesn’t consider those things, but he is speaking of the ultimate reality that all things are from one unified source. It may be confusing or complex in a comment section but I’ll try to break down what I’ve come to learn. The ignorance or forgetting that comes with being born in the material results in the idea of separateness but in ultimate reality there is no separation to this. Things like Lucifer are beings (who have been anthropomorphized and mythically expanded upon) that are impulses or forces in creation that are all part of the game as you said. Lucifer being the ecstatic-spiritualizing-electric force that is unbalanced or ungrounded in a sense. Like if someone is driven to know all of the wisdom of the ages but has no love or groundedness, the Luciferic forces are involved in that way, it is a spiritualizing force. Satan comes from the word meaning Opposer, and has been intertwined with the idea of Lucifer to create this one ultimate devil being in the good vs evil debate of religion. If God is Love and unity then you could see Satan as fragmentation and perceived seperatness. If God is One complete crystalline mirror as an object example, and it becomes fragmented into many many pieces, the Satanic force is the one that says we are separate and claws for further separation and complexity (away from simplicity) because it doesn’t know that the source of its being is Love so it is purely lost in the illusion of seperatness or can even be called a force that acts in further separation. Lucifer is the unbalanced spiritual force and Satan is like the opposer, also tied to Ahriman which would be like a being wishing to keep people and the idea of seperatness crystallized and stuck in the materialist mind with 0 understanding of the spiritual truth of God or unity or love. All of these Beings stem from the interplay of the story of creation and materialization because for the One to become the Many the spirit localizing itself into various archetypal natures and energies would create various perspectives and that don’t recognize the Whole of the pattern and thus act out of ignorance of Love or God or Unity. And just like for humans who are acting out of their animal instincts of survival which stems on vigilance and fear of the outside world for safety (instead of a regulated nervous system that can operate from Love) these forces that operate in separation will unfold in their own manner of interplay separation seeking more seperatness and fear claiming more fear and acting out of ignorance ultimately until God is recognized truly and illusion and judgment of it is lifted.

Ignorance is the source of evil. _"Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."_ _“God created things which had free will. That means creatures which can go wrong or right. Some people think they can imagine a creature which was free but had no possibility of going wrong, but I can't. If a thing is free to be good it's also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible._ _Why, then, did God give them free will? Because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having. A world of automata - of creatures that worked like machines -would hardly be worth creating._ _The happiness which God designs for His higher creatures is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to Him and to each other in an ecstasy of love and delight compared with which the most rapturous love between a man and a woman on this earth is mere milk and water.

From his perspective he explained how evil functions or its dynamics in action: Out of illusion consciousness thinks it is separate from itself and local instead of all prevasive. Hence it fights with itsefl without realizing it is doing so. But this does not explain why there is evil. If the infinite consciousness is love (hard for that to be so if there is no other to love), why in its infinite wisdom does it separate into local apparently independent individual units of consciousness in the first place, when doing so generates evil?

@catherineS3739 6 месяцев назад

I like your question! I'm pondering if infinite consciousness is love but requires itself to seperate into local independent units of consciousness, which in turn generates conflict ie: good/bad, could it be for the evolution of humans/mankind? Both polarities could be seen as divine because without contrast nothing can be understood, thus serving your evolution and in turn the evolution of mankind. All things exist in relationship - a cause and effect world - from a Quantum level to a macro cosmic level. IF we're NOT connected nothing could cause anything to exist. This "connectedness" in turn creates energy which exists in all things. Therefore each person's conscious/unconscious experience will ultimately uplift self, others and Universe. Through this unravelling of the many layers of human consciousness perceptions we begin to wake the spiritual (or such word that is true to you) body. Metaphysical and evolutionary perspectives ultimately serve the same purpose.

@anupamsircar111 4 месяца назад

The answer to this question about why there is evil in this world is simply that there are many things that are unknown and will forever remain unknown because we do not/cannot really understand the grand design of things using our limited minds. As most of you know, in the double-slit experiment, observation (that can be equated to trying to understand something) changes the very outcome of the experiment. The answer can come only from beyond the mind, but even those who have reached that state are unable to explain it with words. We have all been told that the infinite is omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. Therefore, the statement "the infinite cannot know the finite" and therefore has to "manifest itself" is just a construct of the mind and best avoided. Evil is perhaps there just so that we can clearly see it as a huge obstacle and understand that until the time we can completely shun it, we cannot hope to find peace and bliss in life. The same with greed, anger, jealousy, etc. What advaita vedanta, or any other path for that matter, is trying to tell us is very simple: simplify our lives (minimize our wants, take care care of our physical well-being, and also improve ourselves morally so that we do not have hatred, anger, envy, greed, jealousy, etc. [this is the basic foundation without which we cannot build anything higher because our cares and worries will prevent progress]), focus on the real and unreal (i.e., things we have control over and things that we cannot change [this will take care of over-ambition, failures in life, disease, suffering, and death]), and accept stoically everything that is happening to us as part of the grand design (that we do not understand and should not waste our time trying to understand). The above conscious practices will automatically calm our minds without any need to meditate. In fact, we will not be able to meditate effectively until and unless we have mastered the above practices. In essence, a simple and clean life will lead to discrimination about what is important in life and what is not; this will lead to peace and bliss right here and right now without having to wait for a rebirth (another construct of the mind). If grace is granted by the grand designer at this stage, we will also be able to help others so that they too can smoothen their journey through life.

I disagree with this answer. It’s basically saying people do “evil” because of having ego-defined as *any* sense of individuality or separation-and if they just felt everyone else’s emotions exactly the way they feel their own, they wouldn’t do anything bad! I think it can take highly sensitive and empathic people (like me) a long time to realize the fault in this. The reality is, you and I are not one being. We are two, with vast worlds inside each of us, with different needs and narratives and experiences. Feeling other people’s hurt is not what makes us good people or keeps our behavior “good.” It is an element of it, but caring whether you hurt other people (as most people do) and living your values around that is enough. Sometimes you will hurt other people while doing the right thing. Everyone has their own emotions and triggers, so you can treat other people as well as you can, but you aren’t responsible for others’ emotions. In good, healthy relationships and communities, individuals bring a lot of skill and care and energy to bear on understanding and managing their own feelings, so then they can lean on each other for extra support when they need it. Not everyone has the same goals or values and is going to be a “team player” with you, and those relationships need to be dissolved or become less close to make room for more aligned connections. A better lens, I think, is to remember we are animals, and we are of the natural world, which can be brutal. It is normal for animals to kill each other, or starve, or freeze to death, but also to form cooperative families and societies. We would like to live in a society where those “bad” things are not normal or typical, so we try to create “man-made” structures (our various social institutions and customary forms of connection and care) that accomplish that, just as we build a house and try to protect it from the rain, rot, mold, rodents, insects (I own a house, in the forest, and one small hole or unnoticed bit of deterioration can lead to water damage, or rats peeing and pooping in the walls; the exterior paint does just enough to protect the siding from the elements, which does just enough to protect the wall underneath). The point is, nature trying to tear my house down while I try to keep it erect is not evil or unnatural. Nor is my building and maintaining a house unnatural. The world is, as a baseline, chaotic and harmful (but arguably beautiful in spite of that), and we try to bring comfort and safety and function and flow to a life lived together with other people-but not a billion other people, just the people who want to bring the same sort of feeling and circumstances into the world as us.

Some people think they can imagine a creature which was free but had no possibility of going wrong, but I can't. If a thing is free to be good it's also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible._ _Why, then, did God give them free will? Because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having. A world of automata - of creatures that worked like machines -would hardly be worth creating._ _The happiness which God designs for His higher creatures is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to Him and to each other in an ecstasy of love and delight compared with which the most rapturous love between a man and a woman on this earth is mere milk and water.

Sorry, I agree with some of what you said, but we are certainly not animals. We are subject to different Laws than that of the animal kingdom. The Golden Rule is a prime example of this and when our behaviour is not aligned to this Natural Law we experience negative consequences (immediate or later). This Law is also called karma, and it is in operation at all times and is immutable. Man made laws are man made and as such are changed depending on whims. Natural Law(s) cannot be changed. We either become aware of them and align our behaviour to suit or we suffer the consequences individually and collectively.

@practice-righteousness 6 месяцев назад

@@onebody9598 I almost agree with everything, you wrote, but it's NOT a "Natural Law", but it's The Creator's Law of Love, Matthew 7,12, as the Law of Karma is also a Law made by The Creator.

But well done, understanding the truth, as it's supposed to be understood!

So it knows everything about the ornaments (namely gold) but it doesn't know or does he need to know the illusory details such as how big or dimensions of ring bracelet etc. Some enlightened one may have siddis or powers that know the details as well but it's not necessary when you know the gold.

Spiritual practice reconnects us with what we truly are, reaching a point where it is impossible to inflict harm on another human being or any living creature. This is the fall from grace spoken of in the Christian Bible, from God consciousness to the ego mind (the false self). When more than one person engages in an act of good or bad, it’s effects are magnified, people caught up in crowd violence, often report doing things they normally would never do. The same is true for prayer, as the Bible says, if two or more are gathered in my name, I’am there with them. The materialistic world has driven people to engage more with the ego mind, becoming more narcissistic and worse, it is one of the reasons why the world is the way it is. We are in deep trouble, unless there is a major shift in consciousness, it all starts with the mind.

It just hurts Sometimes it’s repulsive Sometimes it’s completely hopeless and agonizing The situations that humanity faces blow me away, the executions, the violations I’ve seen it’s purpose BUT DAMN DOES IT FUCKING HURT

The "problem" is that the finite mind (ego) is unconscious and unaware of what it wants to experience, that's why it chooses to have "bad" things...

@federicosieli5099 6 месяцев назад

It must hurt for the consciousness to perceive itself in this dimension, as well as love must be felt

@brigitteh4825 6 месяцев назад

When consciousness appears to manifest itself from a localised point, it must have total freedom within that manifestation otherwise there would be no point to it. Freedom is ‘acting’ between extremes of good and evil.

Has any of his questions been answered with an "I don't know I have no idea." Starting off from a point of "There is an infinite consciousness" is wild, now how does your finite mind, your piece of that infinity prove itself to you and how would you know if that proof is correct.

Once everything is understood, there will be no worries. Whatever you don't understand, trouble will arise. Worry is a danger and an obstacle in our lives. Worry will produce wrong thinking, wrong ideas, wrong views and expressions, which in turn will lead us (body, mouth, and mind) to make wrong behaviors. These deviant educations will bring misfortune in your life. Even if you go down to the lower three lower realms, you still don’t know why you go down. Without knowing the truth, one remains ignorant. After understanding the truth, our wisdom will be revealed.

So we have a singularity splitting into a dualistic manifest reality in order to create a feedback loop, the term good and evil may as well be hot and cold at the level of the singularity if we remove our humanistic concepts of morality, there seems to be an incompatibility of states of the singularity vs it’s dualistic expression, but such cannot comprehend itself otherwise, without knowing what it is not, this reconciles the disparity. Eventually Anna comes to realise that hurting Alice hurts Anna and in effect this shows Anna who she really is. The only possible purpose of this, is if the singularity is an evolving intelligence that’s is not in a static state, implying it’s active. Or something is searching to know itself and so are all its fragmentations lost in the illusionary construct of space and time. It’s quite fascinating what he’s said really, if you think of death and our finite life’s and apply the know what it’s not theorem, being reductive, can give an interesting conclusion. Is this what the speaker means ?

Why does the feeling of separation and the potential desire to harm the apparent Other arise out of an Infinite Loving Consciousness. Is there something in the "forgetting" that occurs when the One becomes form, becomes "human" where something goes awry? Why is it that this illusory belief in being separate, leads some souls to do so much harm to the apparent Other?!

@Buddhishgirl 6 месяцев назад

One reason might be that when you feel separate and you identify with the form, you see others as threats and you feel like you need to protect yourself? Depending on how strong your sense of separation is, you may have a tendency to be defensive or to "attack and ask questions later" as we sometimes put it. Also, I think it is simply the nature of consciousness to want to experience/manifest (no reason per se, just its nature) and taking a form like humans was the only way to do that but at first, as Rupert said in the past, to forget it's true nature was the sacrifice it had to make... until our body-mind evolves enough to allow us (consciousness) to remember who we truly are, in the same way it evolved on any other level, I guess... I would love to hear others thoughts about this 🙏

@tarkwestron2722 6 месяцев назад

@priscillabeauchemin4752 My queries are mostly rhetorical I suppose... I thought it would be interesting to reach out to the community... I'm still not exactly clear on how, from a source of infinite, loving, consciousness, there arises such as apparent spectrum of behavioral vibrations?! We know how Christianity explains this, how Bhuddism does... All doctrine aside, It just feels like some darkness more than ignorance enters the process during the transition/ the forgetting. from "I Am'' to "Here I am, it's me, King Lear!" For some, this lack of Light leads to unspeakable acts which have been visited upon humanity since we arose out of the One. Ill keep up with the self enquiry!! Between stumbling upon Rupert and through him, Ramana Maharshi, I feel as though after a lifetime of spiritual questing, I have finally found my way, and it's all right here! Blessings!

Throughout the evolution of the kingdoms of mineral, plant, animal, human, it has been an evolution of consciousness towards the Light, towards life, and towards survival. To survive in a dangerous world that has been evolving through seperatness is to react in fight or flight and make judgment calls based on survival. Even though it may seem like humans are passed this survival-based thinking or fear-of-survival way of being, many people being very identified with their temporal personal are acting rather subconsciously out of fear of the unknown and trying to keep their conscious mind in a comfort zone of sorts. There may be a ‘switch’ that happens where a person stops operating primarily from their lower centers and rises into the evolution of living from the heart-center and is operating based on love and selflessness where they are no longer worried of the fear of death because they recognize their eternal nature as their true self. But the desire to harm another or anything of that sort all stems from forgetting the eternal picture or the divinity of it all including themselves, and act out of animalistic dog-eat-dog means for survival or domination. We see this in war, if everyone would lay their weapons down then war would be over, but everyone is too afraid and non-trusting because if they show their vulnerability and lay down their defenses then they fear extinction and the cycle driven by fear, separation, and hate continues.

It may sound strange or silly to zoom that far out and see it from that perspective but imagine INFINITY becoming ONE, then splitting like a cell into TWO, masculine and feminine counterpart, then the feminine energy being the negative charge (🚹+ 🔋 -🚺) (like a proton + and an electron - within an atom) becoming the gross matter of creation and FORM (delving into the darkness of unconsciousness) and the divine Masculine being the FORMLESS infinite that now seems distant and separate from us, the form who strives through the mud on its way back. Something like the story of Adam and Eve and the fall, coming full circle with the kingdom of heaven coming to earth, a return to a lost Eden. Or the story of the prodigal son where one leaves home becomes the lowest of the low then returns home and is welcomed fully with no judgment. The infinite consciousness ‘divided’ into descended levels of vibration to become form to know itself and rediscover itself, descending into darkness and ascending back to consciousness. Just like the hero’s journey, or Carl Jung’s teaching of bringing awareness to make the unconscious mind conscious and operating from a place of non-fractured wholeness. In the one MIND, we are like conscious mind rediscovering and bringing awareness back to the places where we have become unconscious, and all of that is THE UNKNOWN to us, the sub-perceptible things that we are unsure about as a society, unifying in Love back to wholeness again in its own evolutionary co-operative way. Hope this helps. Apologies for rabbit holing 🐇

Continued: in very layman’s terms for imagery-sake, essentially that the infinite stillness becomes energy of the Great Spirit, which becomes the Great Father and Great Mother, two polarities of subtle energy and gross matter, and went from one consciousness to an APPARENT spectrum, multidimensional. The seed into the dark soil, and now the entire unfolding of dimensions back to the fullness of the One as a 🌹 occurs through space and time and back towards its realization of Self and Wholeness again, through the balancing and unification of the polarized split forces of Masculine and Feminine, Spirit and Matter, Love and Wisdom through action, Heart and Mind through these bodies. This is all very spit-fiery language that is rather poor examples of the truly indescribable from a human perspective, from a limited mind, from a conceptual and mammalian standpoint that knows life through father and mother connection. The evolution of consciousness is the cleaning of the mirror within to recognize the pure light of awareness shining back but whatever helps understanding may be useful, however the key 🔑 is surrendering the mind, senses, and all concepts to the infinite and returning to the place of Being. Touching the ocean of consciousness that we are when the waves settle. All of this being said, it SEEMS like an upward striving but I think at a certain point in the realization of all of this, one comes to realize that all of these seemingly separate efforts are truly the natural unfolding and magnetic pull of GRACE, when one truly comes to experientially know that there is no separation. And my final words on this, is that even though of all these things I’m saying are conceptualizing, and therefore seemingly things that happened someplace sometime, all of reality is still light in motion like a pendulum, various frequency of vibration, becoming appearances. Though these things sound like I’m speaking of OTHERWORLDLY things or OTHERNESS, it is all a part of the story of creation and it is all within each of us, we are all ALL of it, it is not separate or external, it comes from the inside projected out. I suggest all of Rupert’s videos, also look up The Alchemist (Sarah Elkhady), David R. Hawkins 📚 and Mooji’s teachings as well. Feel free to comment back to me if you wish. Peace ✌🏼😊

@davezzz7664 6 месяцев назад

we,human, want to survive. So we define the things that hurt us as bad, the things that help us to live as good. However, god doesn’t need to worry about living or death, everything to it is just the shifting of energy. Also, if there’s a god, it must be beyond time and space, so it sees past, present and future at same time. So to my opinion, god doesn’t recognize or need to recognize good or bad. Everything is just being.

@timoxyz1466 6 месяцев назад

The one philosophical, logical issue I see here is as follows: The "almighty" infinite decides to loose itself in its creation thus becoming finite through an act of Will. This act of Will creates the experience of suffering. Therefore it's not an unlucky or unwanted experience but rather something that is willed into existence. Sounds kinda bad right? But remember, the only thing suffering is the infinite itself through "your" localized eyes. There is no self, never was. Labeling this process of something accidental or "the infinite can't know itself directly" is speaking too low of it as it knows everything and has, as the " - " suggest never truly forgotten nor never not known.

@juanp.m.7524 6 месяцев назад

even if the finite mind is a localization of conciousness...why does conciousness being unlimited manifest in a way which allows the concept of separation? Why generate the unnecesary pain of ignorance?

@sandycarter5300 6 месяцев назад

There is no finite mind. There is no localization of consciousness. These are impossiblities.

@-Boundless- 6 месяцев назад

Precisely because it is unlimited. Unlimited means unlimited - It can, and does, appear as anything and everything, including the illusion of separation/ignorance and all of its attendant pains. Consciousness has no intention. It simply IS, and that “is-ness” shines forth as everything experienced, regardless of what that experience is. It doesn’t take sides. It is ALL sides.

@carltyden78 6 месяцев назад

So the Christ that Rupert quotes regularly in situations depicted in the Gospels that supports non-duality but the clear and ambiguous verses in which Jesus Christ encounters and engages with Demons is just ignored. Many times Rupert has spoken of the real possibility of angelic presences. There is not a civilization archaic or ancient, culture, generally mankind that does not have a fundamental notion that there exists an entity which stands in opposition to to God which has guided our trajectory 'through' Eternity towards a confrontation with 'It'. It's not impossible that a separate perspective of infinite consciousness came into being which is opposite to its inherent nature.

@VajraSutra 6 месяцев назад

RS did v well there imho until the very end when he said the source of evil is love. This is the problem w the Advaita dogma that the Universe is ultimately God - goodness. Clearly the cosmology needs to shift to the Noumenal being the source of both good and evil, just as it is the source of our ability to analyse our experience physically or mentally. The Fabric of Reality is itself devoid of characteristics as it is the ground of characterisation. Thus, it is neither good nor evil nor physical nor ideational except perhaps as and when we make it so.
