[@TheNondual]

Thanks for guiding us !

[@dhirajadhikari8190]

Shar, please start meditation sessions again 🙏

[@RLWarrior]

Thank you for sharing this! I completely forgot about you. I watched your first videos that aren’t available anymore. I really wondered what your experience was like. Now that I’ve had many shifts and it’s starting to settle I have more of an understanding. I really appreciate how to tell if it has happened. I went through a very confusing time where I started to create a new personality but it had no appeal. It felt so inauthentic.

[@shar-jason]

Thank you for sharing. Yes, only awareness (our true selves) feels authentic.

These experiences of Awakening, of experiencing being Pure Awareness without ego-mind have happened to me many times. However, I end up back in my ego-self again and it may be years before I experience freedom again. What to do? Or not do…

[@antoniogomez2184]

I strongly recommend the books PERFECT BRILLIANT STILLNESS by David Carse, and THE OPEN SECRET by Tony Parsons. Both of them got the shift of identity not gradually but in a sudden way. You can find these books free in Internet.

there is no real difference between the "gradual process" and the "sudden way" ... .

[@shinrinyokumusic1808]

Can you mention in order the name of and in short the self inquiry exercises you did for each permanent shift that took place with you

[@shar-jason]

Self-inquiry was only a small part of my practice but generally speaking I would suggest starting with neti-neti inquiries - am I the body, am I this thought, am I this identity? Once you've seen what you're not then shift to - if I'm not any of those things, then who/what am I?

[@shinrinyokumusic1808]

@@shar-jason what was your biggest practice / exercise?

[@shar-jason]

@@shinrinyokumusic1808 Lots of meditating, resting as awareness

[@hotdogflavoureddrink]

Hey Shar thank you for the vid. During this process I have a problem in my life that I dont think anyone else in the world has. Lets just say its a burden of sorts that affects every part of my life. My dark night was like you described, and it opened up the crack that led me into spirituality. If I keep learning and meditating, is it possible for me to undo my problem?

[@shar-jason]

Many issues are resolved through the awakening process. It is truly magical.

[@hotdogflavoureddrink]

@@shar-jason I hope so, I am in a really difficult spot!

[@jadecrump5573]

when you, the whole of your being ok with your problems, you are awaken, you are the true you.

[@jbozz5977]

Will this experience be better if you're vibrating high

[@shar-jason]

The theory of vibration is just a concept. Instead, find out who you are beyond all concepts.

[@VeritableVagabond]

How much samatha do you recommend?

[@shar-jason]

Start with 20 minutes a day and build up as you have time to an hour or more

[@alienoverlordsnow1786]

I never had any identity shifts and I doubt it will happen, because I have too many flaws and problems. Do you refer to yourself as a realized being, a Buddha, enlightened, liberated, transcendent being, or awakened being? Peace.🙂❤👍✌

[@peterg3947]

You can still have identity shifts even with major flaws or problems. In some cases some of these problems may drop away. You may also be confronted with major traumas and repressed emotions though.

[@shar-jason]

You too are the One and deserve liberation. I am in unity consciousness which you could label as being self-realised.

[@antoniogomez2184]

I don't exist. I never have existed as an individual; I am not a Drop of water in the ocean, but I am the ocean. I am one with the whole, with The Eternal and Infinite. I don't have a past, present or future. I am out of time and space. There is not and never has been an existent I. This body-mind has been an instrument through which life has flown, the Being, the Conscience has manifested to experience Itself without any own volition from my part. In conclusión, I am not a person with free will, and so the concepts of guilt, responsibility or merit lost every meaning, COMPLETLY AND ANSOLUTLY ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF KARMA OR NEED OF REINCARNATION to correct or pay for errors or to receive rewards for acquired merits.

[@sanatanjiji]

No. Awakening is a process of dissolution of a conditioned personal identity which automatically reveals the true self which is impersonal
