Thank you sooooo much Master Spira. Your explanations of something that can not be explained, by language but can only be known through experience, are rare to find. We are so lucky to have you, in this time, with us to walk us through. Today’s clarifications of “normal duality”, “enlightened duality”, and oneness, “The ultimate non-duality” profoundly became clearer. What came with it was deep silence and peace without suffering. Thank You and your advanced Questioners. ...and of course KZbin.

A usual Q by Rupert is : Are you aware? Another Q to ask myself is : Am I aware? This brings back to core or ultimate source of our being or existence. Awareness is a faculty or ability that knows. Like a mirror or an image on screen, on which experience arises or happens. The paradox is : Once you are aware or become aware of an object, there is a pull like a magnet or magnetic field or tendency to fixate, to stay and cling on to the object of your awareness. You then become unaware of such fixation or pulling force. You forget to return to your ultimate being or pure awareness. The joke is: Once you are aware OF something, you become unaware of your awareness or your true Self (to use Ramana Maharshi’s term). Rupert’s teaching as I understand is to be alert to this pull and do not get carried away by our experience of the outside world. When engaging in worldly activities or operating our life, don’t get trapped by our own sensually projected images. How? Daily practice and meditation of Rupert’s teachings!

Suffering is not there. Suffering occurs only when resistance is there. Awareness does not resist anything. So simple. Thanks Rupert.

So on a conventional level when you identify with what we call self (those transient thoughts, feelings, perceptions and consciousness of the senses) you then have a subject and object relationship, that is awareness (as subject) identifying with the transient experiences (objects) that are stimulating the senses. On the ultimate level however there is just awareness itself, without this fabricated subject/object duality. All activity or imagery is played out on the screen, yet the screen is ultimately the only thing that is actually there. Good job on explaining this difficult concept.

At the beginning, I thought Rupert was going to correct the questioner for using the term, "ultimately", which implies that something sees, hears, thinks, etc., prior to Awareness. In truth, eyes do not see, ears do not hear, the mind/neurons do not think, etc. Only Awareness is aware.

Just by chance (synchronicity) KZbin's autoplay started this video for me, in which the gentelman addressing Rupert raises the very issue that has been bothering me: how can the screen (awareness) not be aware of the images (dualistic world of illusion) playing upon it? Even if the dualistic world is ultimately not real, from the perspectives of the poor souls locked in it, it is very real, and Rupert always says to trust our experience right? If there is an ultimate reality, one of its facets is made up of our experiences right here and right now in this messed up, dualistic world, and I can't help but think awareness glimmers and shines and refracts through every angle and cut in its multidimensional splendor. But I could be wrong.

I still don't understand how it's possible to find peace in severe pain and misery
@user-yy9wp5mo6e8 жыл бұрын
+Knowledge it's not peace in the sense of feeling good as an opposition to pain and misery. it's not an emotion, but rather an understanding. by understanding that all emotions, whether joy or misery, are just manifestations of the analytical mind/ego you understand that what you really are is more than that. don't try and translate this to the ego though, don't tell yourself "my mind and body are always at peace", because that's simply not true. awareness is always at peace, although "peace" may be the wrong word, think of it more like a blank slate. on this blank slate you can have pretty things or ugly things but the slate does not become the pretty or ugly thing, it merely displays it. this is still hard to put into practice because of the illusion that we have of time. we often get the feeling, in times of pain and misery, that there will be permanence. time sort of slows down when we are suffering and this is what i think makes negative emotions more intense than positive ones. so the best thing i would tell you would be to know, or rather remember, that there is no permanence in this world. you are awareness pretending to be a negative emotion, but the emotion will go away eventually and you will stay the same. patience is your best friend in this endlessly changing universe.

Great.... I feel like I understand what you are talking about, but I am still not sure. You said thoughts, feelings, and sensations are all inside me or inside awareness. But only the thoughts, feelings, and sensations of this body appear in my awareness or experience. I cannot experience other people's experience. In other words, my experience or awareness is limited to this body. How to overcome this limitation? If awreness is all there is, how can it be divided or limited? Anyone?
@dba42922 жыл бұрын
Hello 8 years later. From my understanding, and to go through each of your questions, 1. Every single thought, every feeling (like I am upset, I am afraid), every sensation (like a knee that hurts or a cut finger or being cold or too hot) is happening within this field of awareness that we call ‘I’ or myself, yes? See that it is not limited to that. If you see this on your phone or your computer those too is inside this field of knowing, yes? Your phone that you are reading this on happens inside the field of awareness you and I and all of us call ‘I’. 2. You say my experience or awareness is limited to this body, but is that true? If so, we should be able to find a limit to our experience or our sense of awareness shouldn’t we? 3. It will only feel limited or divided until the understanding deepens. You are that which knows, if you identify with the body and mind you believe that there is world OUT there and objects OUT there and feelings, perceptions, thoughts are seperate from the world and its objects. See that EVERYTHING happens in awareness. There is nothing «out» there, everything happens in awareness and we are all that awareness. Big ego means big belief in the belief that I am here and the world and EVERYTHING else is out there when it is the opposite; everything happens in awareness. Our true nature is simply that, that which knows, that which is aware. From our minds point of view this is impossible to understand because we have clustered and mixed our self up with identifying with thoughts and feelings and what society tells us.

I wish I could be in the audience to ask Rupert a question whenever he asked people are you aware they always say yes I would answer the same but that is because he is directing or helping them focus their awareness in that moment what about all the other moments when we're day dreaming in mentiri churning if someone were to step in and say are you aware yes those mental journeyings and day dreams would fall by the wayside very quickly and once again one could answer yes I am aware but the practice seems to be to be able to say yes I am aware all the while why you are day dreaming and mental I mentally churning and you won't have a comment for this thank you
@zain40193 жыл бұрын
Awareness is aware of itself without words. It's a non-verbal knowledge. Our thoughts are obviously where we've lived for much of our life, and we believe to know things, we must think it true. But this is only a limited scope of what knowledge is. Truth shines by itself, without needs anything to say it is true. As we rest in awareness, as we bring ourselves back to awareness each time we are distracted by the world and by though, we deepen into awareness, and then one day, we realize we just being, resting in awareness, without the need to verbalize it at all. Best of luck! You can do it. It is only your very self that you are seeking.

The relationship of consciousness and the brain may not be such that the brain causes consciousness, it could also be that consciousness causes the brain, and that the brain is a physical manifestation of mind, not the other way around. Part of the problem lies in the fact that consciousness is not a quantifiable or observable phenomena, and neither is mind quantifiable (although as a meditator I would say most of the mind IS observable). So scientific inquiry is at a disadvantage when it comes to dealing with such subjective phenomena. Buddhism in particular is partly a science of mind, based on firsthand experimentation; however universal statements about mind and consciousness should always be tested individually. Nosce te ipsum as the Greeks said. Know yourself. This is more experiential than mainstream science. And the words used and concepts expounded should be taken less literally; they are more guide for your own inner experimentation.
