David Bingham and Rommy about self-realization and integration

E-mail: [e-mail]
This conversation took place during the first days settling into self-realization, looking around fully aware and being astonished that there really is no Rommy-person and everything still being as it was without the problematic and energy-draining weight and all too familiar suffering of the thought I believed to be.
It shows the search for truth that started at a very young age with David Bingham and John Wheeler as final teachers and how effortless Being has, through intuition, always been there, lovingly guiding me along the way.
Getting a glimpse from David into what this body-mind may be used for in the dualistic world with Being-Consciousness-Bliss in the driver's seat, this may be a very valuable video for you, filled with David's brilliant pointers coming directly from Effortless Being.

Dear David and Rommy, I’m intrigued with the idea put forth about this not being the world God created. And that it is under a different authority. In your first video together you also mentioned that you could talk about the reason for all the suffering but you guys didn’t get back to it. I understand a little about the demiurge. And I understand dropping into the personal identity koshas but something is here! And so are we. What is this? Where are we?

[@collettewhiteman]

Such a lovely conversation, lots of laughter and effortlessness is the foundation and effort is an option, love that. Lots of valuable points that I haven’t heard before, or maybe I’m just ready to hear them. 🙏🏼

Would love to hear more of your story Rommy. Hoping you will do more videos.

[@Deep_Woodz]

Seems like even if the invitations are accepted this infinite being is still there. It permeates even the experience of identification

[@jimrich4192]

I find "What am i?" more effective than "Who", yet both can lead to ...... ❤😅

[@laurafahey542]

Can u speak more on that topic the comet et made ? Thk u both usa❤ laura

[@RommyHofler]

Dear Laura, could you clarify your question for me?

[@laurafahey542]

Hi Rommy, such an inspiring conversation! I'd love to know more about how the Enneagram can add some depth to the path.

[@RommyHofler]

Dear @peterhanssen5294 , maybe I should make a video about it, thank you for this! As I see it, the 9 Enneagram ego-layers are located in the 3 dualistic Kosha's: Types 8, 9 and 1 in the physical, types 2, 3 and 4 in the emotional and 5, 6, 7 in the mental filter. Regardless of type, David's guidance to recognize the mistaken identity and notice one is effortless being is the immediate 'way out'. For many people however, the message "there is no separate I at all" is a bridge too far too soon. The self-evidence of the Enneagram (once you see it, you can't unsee it) shows that "you" are not unique after all - there are millions of people that have the same Enneagram type or "habitual-pattern-robot" with the same basic fears and desires. So it breaks down the false identity - in my case while I give Enneagram training in a business environment - when the ego guard is down. One in 15-20 people on average contacts me afterwards to find out more as it resonates on a deeper level..

Hi Rommy, thank you for this. I'll send you an email to continue our conversation.

Is there a difference between self realisation and enlightenment, or are they one and the same?

[@MikeSeekingNoMore]

For me, both of those are a sneaky trap to pull me back into systems of the mind. They are not bad but for me this effortless being was new and my focus needed to be resting in it and learning to operate from it. When I was asking questions like that before I now know it meant I had some deconstruction to do. I had overlooked how completely simple effortless being is and had allowed the noise, both good and bad, to steal my attention. If you haven't already, lean into the simplicity of resting in, This, effortless being and when you see it immediately anchor your root identity to it. It has always been there and will always be there.

@@MikeSeekingNoMore thanks for that.

Rommy - Congrat on Stream Entry level enlightenment. It is not liberation from rebirth or freedom from all forms of suffering yet. Keep abiding in space of awareness with equanimity, non-referencing, non-conceptual, non-discriminating, non-grasping, non-production. Abide in space of awareness until your consciousness is completely unchanging no matter what happens to this world. What you experienced is only the beginning towards absolute complete freedom. Test - Can you sit still without moving continuously for 3 hours or more? This is called non-production unless absolutely necessary such as bathroom call.

[@eastmeetswest5939]

The need to make this comment reveals more about your own limitations.

[@sl-bodhi]

It is what true Self-realization is. There is perfect tranquilization without the slightest vasanas or samskara. Do your own research on Turiya and Perfect Tranqulization of Bodhisattva. Initial enlightenment still has habitual energy of subtle self.

[@eastmeetswest5939]

These old Buddhist concepts are an aspect of the dualistic energy matrix, designed to keep you forever in the reincarnation cycle, seeking relative, unattainable perfection.

[@sl-bodhi]

Not wasting time here. Believe whatever you want.

[@davidbinghamchannel]

@@sl-bodhiGood luck with attaining relative perfection. You've commited yourself to an eternity of seeking.
