Summarising all of rupert’s teachings: When you ask yourself the question “am i aware”...you refer to an objective-quality less experience of being aware and a thought rises “yes”. If you stay with that experience after the thought (being aware of being aware),awareness gradually ,in time ,loses its limitations and the true nature of awareness will shine as it is .This process is called self abidance.

When body is going through chronic pain, it will not let you to think anything else. If you tell yourself "I" am different, this body is is not "I", the pain brings you back and will tell you I = body . This method works when body is hale and healthy.

You are right but you have to understand that this method wil not make the pain leave. By doing this you realise that you are not the pain. You can see, observe and experience the pain. The mistake is to go away from the pain. Instead of thinking who am i etc, look ar the pain. The fact that you can feel, experience this pain (this sensation that is changing) is the self inqury. In the case of body pain you can not ban the pain. By although seeing that you are not the pain and not identify with it, you can take action and go to the doctor.

And when you let go of controlling all that you think you are, being your thoughts or your feelings or your experiences, all is left is the peace of just being. And that’s when all kinds of wonderful things will happen to you, as a human being in this finite world, because out of that peace comes love. For life, for the world, for yourself ...

When I practice self-inquiry, I end up with the experience of infinite stillness that can’t move because it’s everywhere already. It’s me. Then I experience an rushing of this infinity put into motion. Things in motion are constantly moving, changing, and flowing, but the infinite stillness is never disturbed or affected. It’s like time and space don’t seem relevant anymore. I laugh my ass off and go off the charts emotionally. Now there’s a little glimmer in everything I experience like it’s almost funny. Like I know that behind it all, it’s all one and all this motion is just a dance or a play/playing. Then I wonder what key where playing in compared to other keys we can’t even sense. It’s impossible to wrap your mind around what is really meant when you say infinity. It’s not just beyond the edge of your senses. You’re just infinity being aware of itself. Self-inquiry is the only way I’ve found to actually realize it. To actually realize what I mean when I refer to me. You go from turning your awareness towards yourself and end up getting turned inside out. “Who am I” is the one question that takes care of all the other ones. It’s makes them irrelevant.

The cause of unhappiness is the egoic or passionate energies (psychological impurities: desire, anger, fear, depression, imatience etc.) which are crystallized in our psych. When they are activated due to any input they vibrate in a dense, disarmonious and painfull way which we experience it as suffering. These egoic energies plus the excessive tamas and rajas gunas that we have in our psych are responsible for our suffering. These energies impede our buddhi to be calm, pure, steady sharp, discriminative and reflect without distortion the happiness of our true SELF. Without purity of heart and mind suffering is inevitable. Self enquiry is not applied only to help us realize that we are not the thoughts, the feelings and the body but it must be practiced 24 hours seven in order the conscious mind to identify with its source and merge in it (consciousness) in order the ego with all its tendecies to dissollve once and forever.

If yes then, you ignore as most spiritual instructors and teachers what really ego is.

Moreover why great spiritual beings like Sivananda, Ramana Maharishi, AMMA, Babaji, Sankara and Bhagavad Gita speak about the death or dissolution of the ego, if ego does not exit?

To me, self-enquiry easily becomes a recipe for avoidance, suppression and dissociation. If I’m having a feeling I don’t like, I just perform some mental gymnastics and escape to my safe space, which becomes another detached mind construct, sprinkled over with some non-dual fairy dust. Most people struggle to connect with their feelings. Thus the first job is full identification with awareness, maybe just to sit quietly, or perhaps even safe expression which is different to acting out. Or maybe it’s a call to action, maybe not. There is no one size fits all, we are all unique. When “unhappiness” (a very vague generalised term) gets released, a natural relaxation and spaciousness tends to open up, like after a good cry, that is energetic, i.e. the life force, presence, happiness or whatever you wish to call it, can more freely flow through you and be uncovered without the need to play more confusing thinking games. Nor will it lead to the nihilism and passivity that often incomplete eastern teachings tend to generate, as they split between the manifestation and the unmanifest, generally preferencing the latter. We are background and foreground, they are interdependent, both should be honoured and both are ‘real’ in their own way.
@deadgonk1 Жыл бұрын
"I" feel that you are the only person in this comment section still trying to be aware of the experience that exists. Whether it is in the form of a person, a mind, a memory, everything felt is still real. Just because the "I" is not experiencing it and is simply aware of it being experienced, that does not mean that it isn't real. Perhaps "I" simply cannot grasp this yet, but as you said, it feels like some kind of detachment or dissociation with your person-hood's feelings. Unhappiness is a reaction to an experience. In just investigating the separation of your awarenesses, that doesn't make the experience disappear or irrelevant. I'll have to keep listening and exploring. I am clearly missing something seeing as so many people are so happy with this video, but it certainly feels like the advice is "That unhappiness isn't you lol"... Which is true, but that doesn't mean you get to totally disregard it.

One of his best video. Don't think you are a cluster of thoughts and feelings, sensations and perceptions!

Identification is automatic my friend. You should be able to control automatic processes.

Process is valid to discover our true position as I, separate from our personality which is always changing BUT it is not solution to solve the problem of distress,sorrow,pain,suffering and unhappiness at all,I find myself as different from these ,true ,but they are there ,it's like I am standing amidst fire all around me ,I'm different from Fite but doesn't mean fire is not there .

I have heard and studied Buddhist teachings for the last 40 years - according to my understanding of the Buddhist perspective - the explanation given here by Rupert is a good half of the self-inquiry investigation process. From the Buddhist approach you don’t stop the inquiry at seeing the “I” as the experiencer - but further investigate who or what is this “I” that is experiencing the thoughts, feelings and sense of self. Only when one realises that the “I” exists merely conventionally in dependence on the combination of the body, mind feelings and thoughts etc. but in fact there is no truely & inherently and therefore absolutely findable existent “I” - only then one has reached the final analysis of selflessness.

Don't forget that the ultimate goal is to see what you are, not what you are not.

True - but if we are already conditioned to believe in what we are not, then wouldn’t it be necessary to understand what we are not - (grasping to a false self) so that we let go of the false self and realise the true self?

@@michaelyeshe Why not go straight for what you are ? See clearly that you are not limited (it's only thoughts that say that you, awareness, are limited) and not temporary (also thoughts that say that). That's the only way to cease suffering (desiring what is not present and resisting what is present now). Take the analogy of the rope and the snake. Only the clear seeing of the rope can put an end to fear and resistance. You might see that the snake you believed it was previsouly is not there, but another day, since you haven't seen the rope clearly, you might think it is the shadow of a man or a hole, etc. We have to see Reality as it truly is. That's the only way. We are it. So mind's knowledges like knowing what Reality is not (which is the best the mind can do, then it falls silent), are at best a prelude to the recognition of ourSelf, but generally it's a distraction from seeing Reality as it truly is.

I'm sure this is the best way to go. But it isn't always easy. This wonderfully clear explanation will surely help! Finding one's clarity amongst the madding crowd! Namaste!
