Mindrolling - Ep. 211 - David Godman

[@sharadam777]

Namaste David ! You have no idea what a great noble life you have lead just by bringing Ramana's life to our homes thru your videos. . Thank you and may the divine light of Tiruvannamalai always reside in you!

[@ajinkyarane9006]

i feel the same he and micheael james both are coming in the form of ramana to us to tell us turm inward

[@divyasrivastava7512]

Ditto what you said Smile Me Blessed to be here 🙇‍♀️

[@dipshikhachakravortty4642]

David Godman is an enlightened Jnani himself and Maharshi Ramana is within him. I must have heard the story of Keerai-Patti almost 50 times, whom David fondly translated as Green-granny. Laxmi-the cow and many other such narrations which I felt are directly coming from Ramana's blessing through David to many of us who are again lucky to have come under the aegis of Ramana's grace.

Whenever I listen to bhagwan teachings or read them I become still. No thoughts arise. It is so powerful..

[@nahanng7791]

So whenever you are not listening, you aren't still ? Then that's stillness is a mind production

[@meta2011]

@@nahanng7791 if one can practice enquiry moment to moment, he or she become still every time. That's what I observed.

[@RamKumar-yi6wn]

David Godman is a gift to humanity !

[@michaeldeathless]

Thanks so much. David Godman is a valuable treasure for anyone interested in Ramana and his devotees.

[@bryanleovy1881]

DeathlessVR yes yes

[@Ametisas]

Don't want to compare or judge ... but for me David is the one who conveys the message absolutely 100% crystal clear! I haven't seen any other human speaking so accessibly. Many thanks! :)

[@srichakrahubli]

Michael James is a notch better!

[@divyasrivastava7512]

Absolutely correct.. David is the voice of the Silent teachings of Bhagwan Raman

[@harpozzz]

The full meal; main course Ramana's teachings, appetisers consisting of the encounters with the hand full of realized saints and Laxshmi (another realized saint) for desert. Such wonderful interviews by DG.

Thank you 🙏 Truth always puts itself in our sights so that one can realize the Truth of Reality! If one identifies with the body a body must be in our sights to help us see the way to the Self which cannot be defined 🌹❤️

[@turiyahill]

What a truly great dharma servant.

[@heatherross6242]

This is a real gift..Thank you

[@kzen848]

Ha! Two of my fave peeps! ❤

[@shivsivaram9872]

David.....Excellent very inspiring...Shiv

[@keshavchandak3746]

Excellent convo! The story of Laksmana swamy and his devotee is pretty insane

[@lukasoc1518]

Thank you David and Raghu

[@catmoon2009]

The greatest thank you Mister Godman

[@tarnum113]

Дэвид Годман!!! Могу слушать бесконечно!!!

[@RamKumar-yi6wn]

David's surprise at the word "commiserate"😂 . You probably should have said "I feel you ,bruv.Dig lol".

[@iloverumi]

great interview- thank you!

[@babs2day]

I am having the same crushing ping pong experience in my head, and it still has not let me alone, for over a decade now. The self inquiry is helping, but it even mocks that, and every word copycatting. Any recommendation on how to still this internal war . I have never seen anything so violent, and want me dead.

[@publicartcritic7993]

Who are the great teachers now 2021?

[@RamKumar-yi6wn]

Hi can you please give a link of the opening music ? Very peaceful.

[@moesypittounikos]

Michael James is another Ramana expert you will enjoy. Michael has a slightly different take than David Godman. Where David Godman believes the individual is a jnani, Michael James says that no person can become a jnani because there are no people!

[@grantsouthard1973]

Hi Moesy. Sorry to contradict you, but David doesn't think the individual is a Jnani. He frequently says the individuality disappears when realization occurs. He has a perfect understanding of Bhagavans teachings, as does Michael James.

[@harjotmahal8985]

They said the same thing in two different ways. There is no contradiction here. David Godman said it from the individual standpoint, as a concession to those who believe they are Individuals. Whereas Michael james gives no such concession and speaks from the standpoint of the absolute reality. Both addressing the level of understanding of the questioner.

[@srichakrahubli]

Since the reality is beyond words... It seems a contradiction! Both are the 2 eyes with which we can see Bhagwan clearly.

[@nahanng7791]

How about us stop talking this person says this and that and focus on ourselves instead. What's the point of discussing other's opinions and never practice or experience yourselves and extinguish the questions. What's the point of saying James said there's no people and this and that , how does that help you or anyone but simply increasing a metaphysical intellectual curiosity.

[@srichakrahubli]

@@nahanng7791 if you truly believed this, you wouldn't comment.

[@babs2day]

I am having that pong pong Batman thrashing in my skull, for decades now. Any recommendations, even with self inquiry, why this keeps happening?

[@esneliamunoz4475]

🕉🕉🕉🙏

[@normtremblay4147]

the mountain man of maine 💘 you

[@niloc1414]

At about 7 minutes David talked about a book by Ramana Maharsha which was THE book that stopped him looking at that time. Anyone know which book?

[@bearllande]
