Michael Singer - Ceasing to Cling to Your Self-Concept

We love Michael Singer’s work. As long as he and KZbin allow us to post these videos, we will.
We do not receive ad revenue from these videos, but KZbin may.
If you would like to learn more about Michael Singer’s work, here are a few suggestions: - Every Sunday, Monday & Thursday, he releases talks at www.tou.org. - Every Sunday, Monday & Thursday night, he gives a live talk at his Temple of the Universe in Alachua, Florida. Anyone can attend for free.
He’s written several books. They are phenomenal, even the ones written in the seventies. (We will receive a commission if you purchase books through these links.)

If you’re wondering what Mickey’s saying at the beginning and end of each talk, it is:
Jai Guru Dev, Jai Masters. Jai Guru Dev is a traditional Hindu phrase that means Glory to the Great Teacher (the most accurate translation would be glory to the shining remover of darkness), where the great teacher here is generally considered to be the Divine Soul, while we, as human beings, are considered the individuated Soul. Jai Masters means Glory to the Masters, some of whom Singer refers to at times.
Thank you for visiting. Peace, my friend.

These talks are the only ones I feel are worth listening to these days. ❤

Michael is such a blessing. I was just listening and I have tears in my eyes. His wisdom is so profound, that he can simplify something so I hear the words, and I feel something in my heart like I have never felt in my life. I am 76, I have said this before, there are teachers who give us pieces of the puzzle, I could not put the pieces together to have a picture. Michael puts the puzzle pieces together, and the picture is a feeling in the heart that is free from any thought of the mind or feeling from the heart that is not part of the joy that is felt when the heart opens. In one talk Michael says instead of trying to open your heart, find out why you allow it to close. For me it is like walking around with my eyes closed, bumping into things and suffering pain, open the eyes ( ficus awareness on consciousness and not the 5 senses) and be conscious and aware of what the mind tries to feed the consciousness, and understand that a lot of what we serve up to our consciousness, from our unconscious mind is making us sick.

For whatever reason this talk hit home harder than any other. I’ve been listening to Michael everyday since January and today something clicked. When he said about looking back at your self rather than looking out I could feel who and where I really am. I’m so grateful for Micky. God bless anyone and everyone who finds him. Peace and love. Namaste 🙏🏻

“If I build this model of who I am, everybody better agree” (nodding head, yes, this is what my mind tells me 🙈) “It’s almost as though I’m putting myself up for sale every time I open my mouth” 🤣 Mickey calls us out in the funniest most truthful ways, sometimes I just bust out laughing at myself listening to him ❤️🤗💙

Every single moment , that passes in front of me , is better off, because it did. ❤❤

[@TommyB1524]

I lost my parents in 2019 and 2020, 10 months apart. The first couple of years were mostly just numbness to the intense grief, but now I've definitely hit a stage where I just feel 'lost'. It's hard to not cling when I feel that my grief keeps me tethered. This helped greatly, though. Thank you!

[@virginiasenophdrn5921]

Keep doing it.

[@richardhart2291]

@TommyB1524 In one of Michael’s talks he mentions that the grief is from the love felt. ❤️

[@jamesk8s1]

it's like a downing person grabbing at any person or object in the water. deeper and deeper, clearer and clearer 💖

[@sparkleinco2035]

thank you so much for doing this.. I listen to one of Mickeys talks every morning. They are transformative.

[@senitastillwell5040]

Me too😃! I often listen to certain ones multiple times.

[@user-ev2pb5jr4t]

Me too. Thank you!

[@jodysierra9487]

[@michellem8388]

[@lukeclaydon6670]

So good so true thank you. Great delivery always a laugh out loud moment to with such deep topics make’s great listening. Wonderful good 👍 fantastic

[@2DogsHumping]

We love you, bro!

[@caroljones9908]

Every moment that passes me by is better off because I let that moment be, I saw it, I felt it and I let it be in its raw form , no judgements, no connection to past emotions, just a moment passing through , letting it go with the flow, no resistance to try and twist and turn the moment into other than what it is. Just one moment in time allowing it to have free will to enthuse me with energy because I didn't cling on to it...oh wow, don't know where these words came from but I think I'm 'getting it"

[@carolgeorge6409]

I love to listen when he talks slowly♥️

[@EugenieMacGillavry]

@carolgeorge6409 ...and then he gets exited😅

[@nozizwechigonga9646]

Cheers to learning to live with discomfort ❤

[@virginiasenophdrn5921]

I feel SO much better now!

[@terrybochansky6271]

I listened to most of Michael Singers Talks on Sounds True. These sound like repeats? This will help his talks reach more people. Thanks for sharing.

[@user-gf9ee3tk9p]

I’m here because I met my consciousness in another body, aka a “twin flame”. It hit my stuff, all at once- and caused multiple ego deaths. The love bubble phase was incredibly beautiful, then your life falls apart after. 😂 that’s why I’m here. That’s why I’m a Buddhist and fully taking on the true spiritual journey. “The mind” is always walking on eggshells.

[@KrishnaBreathesPrana888]

Same here!! And gosh, it sure is freaking turbulent right now.. and yeah, the monkey mind is LIIIITERALLY bananas, lol. These egg shells are ridiculously annoying. It's time we take back our power. I can't wait to have full mastery of the mechanics of mind, then I can just let 'my' identity go all together. Definitely clinging like crazy but by complete accident. My body is so freaking tense, is it just ego resisting what is? I'm over here thinking that I'm dying... sighhh. I'm just trying to let go!!!

[@richardhart2291]

@user-gf9ee3tk9p Michael talks about consciousness and everything else is an object of consciousness. It seems that to experience consciousness in another body, that would be an object, the body, of consciousness. I am not understanding how consciousness could divide itself to, as Michael puts it, drop into two bodies. From my understanding of Michael’s talks, when Jesus said my Father and I are one, Jesus ceased to exist as a separate entity and united with the energy of the one consciousness, there was no separation of self from the energy of the one consciousness that has no form that everything physical emanates from.

[@beatleme2]

Love his talks, reminders of Reliance and be flexibility we must be like a tree, to be able to bend and sway but not break... and/or quite taking life so personally.... love you all, we/you will be ok

[@padmajagadeesan713]

🙏Thank you very much 🙏

[@lukeclaydon6670]

Great 👍

[@linggg1541]

Yes this is exactly right..this happened to me recently and I felt suicidal as a result..thankfully after sticking with the stuff that comes up I am getting much more inner peace.

[@annemarine]

Thank you that's fantastic 😊🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️

[@mitramalekzadeh9988]

Thank you so much 💗 I'm grieving and this helps.

REAL spiritual work 👀 I can handle discomfort Find J😀Y in practice❣️

[@jhall2281]

When M. Singer laughs it has a 'Joker' like cadence to it. Like the idea of believing that one can controll reality is so sad it's funny.

[@bindu9185]

The most terrifying moments in my life were after an epileptic seizure, regaining counciousness without an identity/sense of self. Intense panic that slowly faded while pieces of myself regained some solidity (or semblance thereof)

[@patreeseeahhh1606]

Discomfort & fear Anchoring ⚓️ dysphoria ‘I’ created it! 👀!

[@richardhart2291]

In this talk Michael describes the relationship between consciousness, the heart and the mind. The mind hijacks the attention of awareness to focus on external solutions to disturbances. Consciousness does not experience itself as a disturbance. It follows the attention of what the energy of awareness focuses on when we allow the mind to provide the entertainment that pulls consciousness away from itself by focusing on what is coming in through the five senses that cause disturbances. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHjFapZoibyGn80si=nE6fUfh8Z-jGAYls

47:17 It’s practice time 😁

[@chasemasters9871]

What does he say at the very beginning of these talks? Sounds like “grandmasters” something like that? Anyone know ?

[@SeatsofContemplation]

Jai Guru Dev, Jai Masters. Jai Guru Dev is a traditional Hindu phrase that means Glory to the Great Teacher (the most accurate translation would be glory to the shining remover of darkness), where the great teacher here is generally considered to be the Divine Soul, while we, as human beings, are considered the individuated Soul. Jai Masters means Glory to the Masters, some of whom Singer refers to at times.

[@chasemasters9871]

Thank you so much! I have been wondering that for the longest time..
