Being sensitive will generate a field of presence in which you can observe through attention everything happening spontaneously. The more sensitive you are the more field will generate. Just be aware of that and watch everything with all your senses. That’s the real fate or realization and you don’t need spiritual hocus-pocus because that’s a natural state for human beings. Don’t think about just watch with all your senses.

While the philosophy is good, religion, Bhakti is good, it is also important to seek thetspy( cognitive behavioral therapy) along with medications. Depression is not imaginary, it’s like diabetes or hypertension. It involves neurotransmitters. I heard one gentleman here talk about depression. Please get help. Just like ur body needs vitamins, food, u have to seek help for depression!🙏

[@stephenjosephantonelli]

Great point! And that does not contradict what he’s saying here either. As I know you did not imply :-) Sometimes this human form needs help in order to feel better and continue to show compassion to others. However, I think the key is to just except that this is true. I myself suffer with bipolar and depression, and through these teachings and many others I recognize that I can’t feel sorry for myself, or will it away. I do what I can for my body because this is the reality in which I live. Everything is in God’s perfect will and I ask for that will every day. Sometimes minute by minute!

[@cowzah8551]

The idea of destiny and worthless-ness of free will is certainly hard to accept. But this acceptance ultimately translates to the act of Surrender (which Ramesh ji also talks about here). What i understand is that Surrender is the way in which the sense of personal doer-ship dissolves and actions are done in a flow in which there is no conscious thought. The severe pain of psychological afflictions like depression is very genuine and i donot yet understand how spiritual insight can deal with that. I suffer from depression too, at times very powerful. What may be considered here is that Suicide is committed in a heightened state of Ego in which the Self pronounces that the pain is unbearable and inescapable. And if the Ego is to be completely dropped and surrendered, then the identification with forces of depression will cease. I admit that i struggle to internalize this beyond mere intellectual understanding. But in my mind, i keep returning to the idea of not identifying with my Ego.

[@jonmustang]

@Cowzah I once suffered from depression as well and I think you are correct about the possibility that the depressive thought patterns can be dropped/surrendered. One day, it suddenly happened within me. Terrible spiraling thoughts about low worth, no hope, no answers and then, suddenly... a new thought came. "What if I just didn't desire anything anymore?" But it wasn't dropping the desire for life, it was more like dropping the mental story of my life. The story my ego was repeating about unmet desires and hopelessness was was just dropped, suddenly. It was like my consciousness just lost interest in the story of "myself" and dropped it.

[@enlightenment00]

I went through the same and this teaching works you just have to keep at it go as deep as you can, wisdom takes time to sink in the system, years, but you will have learnet the most precious thing inlife after you get it. do not make any effort, just go deep, also check other spiritualities to have a better understanding, be curious and it will come. Open the hand of thoughts, be aware of them slowly but surely; they are the cause of depression and pain in the body.

[@brushstroke3733]

I feel the same way. I've been following these teachings as well as the "direct, non-dual" approach for years. I've been meditating (I think) for hours every day for 14 years. Yet I am now as depressed as I've ever been. I sleep as much as possible and have no inspiration or motivation to cook, clean, get a job, make friends, etc. I exercise physically which helps me to feel fairly good much of the time, but then the dark thoughts arise again. I thought it was clear that there was "no one" here and that free will was an illusion. Now I feel like I've been fooling myself all this time. I am just a person. I feel like the doer no matter how clearly I see intellectually that I am not. I think it's time for me to admit failure and just go back to living as if conditions could bring me satisfaction. I'm cooked.

Don't see what is brilliant or so clear in the conversation. The conversation only raises questions and answers none. A man can't live even for a moment without an action, and what one does depends on his/ her prakriti (Gunas) , which in turn is the result of his past and present lives/ karmas (samskaras), this in turn depends how one lives and acts every moment and the eagerness she/ he shows every moment in knowing himself and also the purpose of life. Polio was incurable sometimes before but not now and this was possible because the effort and the will of the mankind. You can't say that earlier God had the will to make human suffer through polio but now He has changed his mind and now He wishes that no one should suffer from this disease called polio. Moreover, will you tell me why someone suffer and some enjoys if one can't do good or bad ?

Its interesting because if u are not the doer, the experiencer, you separate yourself from the act. But all conflict has its root on separation/division. It feels like everything is ONE, and if thats so, how can we separate ourselves from the ONENESS? It feels like its the our EGO MIND that separates us from everything thats why suffering happens.

Life is about Being free; but our Lives are mentalized as prisons.

[@sinkec]

There is no life, nor is there imprisonment. There is no god ether, nor creator. No root. No birth, no death. No truth. No false. No destiny. No script. No story. No good, no bad. No universe. No time - no space. No karma, no doer. No past or future lives; no afterlife, no presence either. No real or false beliefs. All those concepts above may only appear as that, but only as long as there is language/words attempting to describe “THIS what is” which is ALREADY free of any identity/story and context. It’s incomprehensible isness isnessing without any purpose and meaning but all meanings seem to arise from it. Like reality arising from unreality lol. Sometimes there is a rainbow in the sky, so what? You are already free, because there is no real you and nothing to be free from! You never done anything wrong or right, again there is no real you in that apparent body; behind those eyes, no matter how real that sense of you and the apparent story of you may seem. This is it as is - completely unknowable and ungraspable in spite of APPEARING knowable. Beliefs appear and disappear. No one chooses them - or opposes them -> So, mr. imaginary chooser, wake up! This is boundless freedom already no matter what those apparent thoughts say or don’t say; they are NOTHING already only appearing as something particular but to no one. No one can teach you anything. There are no teachers as there are no students. There may be arrogance, but no teacher can be held liable for being arrogant, it’s not like anyone chooses that. 😂 There are only names, symbols and words appearing to put this unknowable isness in a context to make everything appear orderly and to make sense of this appearance that can’t be even talked about other than through apparent words/symbols lol. Who or what would you be without a name, nationality/race and date of birth? No one! Just as you were when that you was apparently born awwww, but now you have suddenly become a someone, a someone real on a mission, someone separate from wholeness 😂 And for the end… That what feels like a sense of self, like something separate, like a you. You didn’t choose that either. What did? NO ONE knows! It’s dead beginning/end already. The end of knowing - period! No word/belief can describe it. So there is not a fucking thing wrong with feeling separate or not separate. Yes, this is all nothing for no one. It’s so stunningly simple and beyond obvious and that’s the hardest part! 😂😂😂

Because in my understanding karmayoga implies the voluntary action with no end result in sight, which is certainly not the case in his teaching. Moreover, for karmyoga there has to be an element of doership (in early phase), which completely misses in his teachings. Fact remains, and that is based on first hand individual experience, that mere knowledge does not remove the conditioning of mind or past habits. It can be concurred only through practice. As long as mind is under the influence of Gunas it will be bound to react according to its composition of Gunas. Without practice even if there is knowledge, the composition of Gunas can't be changed. So Bhakti or surrender is culmination of the Karmyoga or in other words bhakti/ surrender shall be incomplete unless it has passed though the path of Karmyoga.

You are just narrating the final truth but the fact is that this state has to be acquired in order to realize which in turn passes from the sense of doership and finally becoming not a doer. Mere stating intellectually that I am not the doer will not do good.

@@michaelmcclure3383 You are right. The enlightened sages identify with the body but fully understand that they are not the doer. My point is that this realization of not being the doer is not an intellectual understanding. The sense of doership falls automatically if one pursues the path of Karmayoga as its culmination. Here lies the catch. You referred Raman Maharshi who got enlightenment in very early age but to make that understanding and realization seeps through his being and remain steady he practiced sadhana for decades. And this is what I am trying to highlight. Unless the mind becomes fully sattvic it will never be steady with the realization even if one happens to get.

41:00 his conclusion is that unhappiness comes from rivalry. This is not true in my experience. I have no rivalries and the best intentions, yet I am not happy. Also he is wrong about genes. We 𝑑𝑜 have control over our genes. I think in this talk, especially with the person at 1:08:30 he makes the mistake of "for a man with a hammer, every problem looks like a nail". Totally not helpful for the guy, but I assume he gives answers/this talk to be of service. Anyway, he has some good points. For me, free will is a very good illusion and it doesnt help philosophizing about it - what's the point? Yes, God acts through us and yes we do have different possibilities of acting but this is also highly limited by a lot of factors. I like to think in terms of 'we have a certain degree 0 < x < 100 of free will', strictly not 0 and strictly not 100%, and even if it was 0 or 100: it doesnt matter.

[@e-ternell]

the question is not to believe in free will or not, but to know why we don't do what we would like to do

“God protect me from your believers!” -bumper sticker wisdom. Pain and suffering are impermanent and the 4th Noble Truth. In a dualistic world tormented by this or that; good or bad; right or wrong, etc one can attain cessation of suffering by being in the Middle Way or following the 8-Fold Path. We already exist in the Middle Way, but attachments to past keeps one in suffering. Every moment of existence in the intermediate state of this Gaia planet, all sentient beings are blessed with 3 Noble Identities which are in union of a mind/body incarnate. The First Identity is the ego identity; how we perceive our experience of self in this realm; it is the ongoing internal narrative of personal experience; ego protects and promotes our experience, but is also our own worst enemy! Second Identity is how community perceives ‘I’; it’s the Social Identity; it’s how a body of our peers judge/value ‘I’. It’s the ‘them’ in us. Third Identity is the Metaphysical Identity. We are essentially pure energy and thus, is here permanently (though body is impermanent). Energy is beyond demarcations of the body and is of divine origins of The Creator. We return to what we create, in one form or another, and suicide is not the answer. Who we are is determined by the identity in which we dwell from moment to moment. True transformation occurs upon breakthrough of Monkey Mind (the default mind program of our species). But Transference from this Gaia to another Pure Land is an unknown new art … or is it? Transference is the Great Escape from this open-air prison that was once a Pure Land Gaia. Our One Common Mother. Only Gaia knows where her sisters are in the vast cold harshness of deep space and thus how to get there. But even Isaac Newton understood that Energy Transfer is operating in this realm and throughout the cosmos. Many deep questions for simple minds and no one to put them forward to-

No, life is NOT a prison. You are free my friend, you god and you (god) created this place, not as prison. But as an experience we can say, not to imprison itself (maybe it has been like/looking like that, the past, couple of 1000s years.) BUT IT IS NOT FACT. Btw as Mooji says "if you believe you are not free. Then life will manifest so it looks that way" ❤

[@mateusgam1234]

@@kanemclaren5991 im not entirely sure why you talk about (its a long time since i watched the video) Well, as i understand what you mean. What is heaven? What do you define as heaven? A loving and amazing place where all is good? Thats the You you are looking for, the observer, the one who cannot be touched, by anything! So even the pray and the Predator, is still observed. Does it feel like heaven for them? Maybe for the Predator, maybe it really enjoys it, maybe not. And definitely not for the pray, yet, the moment later, relaxing with its kids, can feel like fulfillment/heaven for that animal. And living in the consciousness of Pray Predator, is not nice or aka Fight or Flight. Yet we have the ability to turn into light and love right here and right now. We have, i have at least 0 ideas what will happen when my body dies. So why not enjoy and appreciate everything as a gift? Instead of living in the fear, or worry that you are in a prison? You are not ^ You are life itself, experiencing life itself from your avatar ^ What you do with it or not, is ur choice. Didnt Shiva live in bliss most of the time? (Cant remember) How can bliss and prison be one? The recognition that you are not the body nor the mind, free's your awareness, according to them, ur are now free from coming back, becouse you realize you were never really the one here. There is no one inside your body. There is no one here, yet, the one that manifest as the observer, is the same observer behind all things. From nothing to what looks like something. Yet no separation, the body is ur buddy and its part of your experience. But its not you. You dont have to do anything really

[@skdkskdk]

Quite an atheistic approach to the whole issue, a reference to Krishna or Allah does not make you a theist, what makes you a theist is your relationship to the deity and usually in human history means the unlikely or the supernatural, which Ramesh here dismisses to the dismay of other "gurus" that are selling it by the pound!

[@bornatona3954]

Crap

[@ProjectMoff]

That depressed guy was probably suffering more from the rejection of his pain, his tendency to push back and try to be rid of it was more than likely causing the majority of his turmoil, I say this because I have suffered severe depression and I noticed that there were certain times when I was comfortably depressed. I realised these times of comfortable depression were caused by my acceptance, my non rejection of my feelings, and so now though I still have depression I suffer much less, for the times when I find it hard to accept for reasons unknown I find an acceptance of my non acceptance to be acceptable to provide a level of peace of mind. I got the feeling Ramesh didn’t quite know what to say though he clearly understands acceptance of what is is what gives peace of mind, his attempt to speak of those worse off seemed more like a plan B kind of thing due to not being able to find the words.

[@tommyls4357]

Well said. I also wondered why didn't Ramesh tell him to accept his pain. I think if he was given a chance to think, he would've done a better job at answering. I liked what you said about accepting your non-acceptance. Thanks for sharing that technique.

Develop attitude towards life as well as others by understanding that you are not doer and so no human being should have guilt for one’s action and hatred for others for others action. 3.
