Such wonderful Truths revealed by Swamiji. Thank you, Thank you.

[@radpanikar]

A fantastic teacher who pulls us all in to absolutely ensure we have internalized what he is teaching.

[@renatedorner8886]

An enlightened person is established in the present moment. He is neither lost in the future or nor lost in the past. I love these explanations. I got so many clicks.

Amazing video and session on 7 layers of our being.. very interesting that we won't be destroyed by global climatic change or anything..I am happy to know that still and always enlightened beings keep the control of bliss layer and whole world..

[@reidmarsh]

Thanks for this video.

[@mytryelife]

actually that's a great point lol . it is said that most for most people, the moment of leaving the body and the moment of enlightenment will be the same

[@netelsg]

Yes, everything I see is manifested by my Buddha Nature. Everything is ONE (buddha nature). If you see everything as one, then it is enlightenment.

[@edendvatri]

Present Moment - Key to Enlightenment - Part 2

[@MultiSteini]

How do you define a thought?

[@Infinite.phases]

Ommmmm yeeaaaahhh ommmmmmmm ... I'm so present that I don't even get gifts on my birthday! Ommmmm ...

[@Jayaspery]

Is there a 3rd Video to the 2nd part?...I am so intuned to Swami's teachings and thirsty to hear and learn more.

[@netelsg]

Statement #2 is when someone has understood the true nature of all phenomena and dharma as "emptiness". Mountain is seen as mountain from afar, but when one walk up on the mountain, mountain is just accumulation of sands, stones, rocks, mud, grass, etc... When all these sands, stones, rocks, muds, grass, etc are removed, there is no such thing as mountain. Thus, with true understanding of form and emptiness, one sees mountains as not mountains, waters as not waters.

[@netelsg]

Statement #1 is referring to what normal people (unenlightened) is seeing when they are looking at FORMS. FORMS are objects that have appearance, like mountain, trees, birds, cloud, cars, rivers, buidlings, etc... Human in samsara has attachment to forms, thus they see FORM as FORM, mountain as mountain, water as water.

[@netelsg]

Below is a zen koan by enlightened master. Before I practise Zen, I saw mountains as mountains, and water as water. When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw that mountains are not mountains, and water are not water. But now that I have got its very substance I am at rest. For it's just that I see mountains once again as mountains, and water once again as water. Anyone has any view?

[@netelsg]

The last stage is enlightenment. This last statement is when one has realised, enlightened or awakened to one's self nature. He will discover that all mountains, water, clouds, birds, cars, trees, flowers that he sees are just manifestation of his Buddha Nature. Therefore he'll "see mountains as mountains, and waters as waters".

[@darshangopalbhatt5546]

Nice!

@threetunes - Of course thoughts come all the time. That is the nature of the mind, to create thoughts. So now "see" your thoughts. Realize you are thinking. That is awareness-- namely, to be aware that you are100% aware of your mind and your surrounding. That is one way to detach from your mind-noise. There are other ways.

[@pancas78]

First thing you should do is to STOP! Do not go, neither forward nor backward, be ever present at this moment. Calm down, breath deeply with your stomach involved and empty your mind. Be calm and serene in this moment and then express your love and gratitude. Try to listen to the voice inside, ask him, talk to him, he will help you. Clean your mind from all negative thoughts. Take care of your thoughts as yours greatest treasure. Try to find your peace at any moment and in every moment.

[@netelsg]

The seeing and manifestations are one. All is Buddha Nature. Seeing a flower and the manifestation of the flower by the buddha nature are one (your buddha nature). The hearing and the sound you hear are also your buddha nature.

[@threetunes]

how to bring the thoughts down to zero? thoughts comes without one wanting! -- moments of danger, sex, Death of loves ones shock the mind to a point of thoughtlessness; but only temporary; If they are to last, one need to reach the present state consciously; science of tantra, zazen, yoga is of importance I believe; Thought created this restlessness and that knowledge acts as a shock absorber; obviously awareness is key - but what is it?

[@hank3339]

man swamiji you are so funny, so hilarious!

[@netelsg]

No, I'm an Engineer but now not working. Do you understand what I've explained? Are you the speaker of this video?

[@netelsg]

Everything that you see right in front of you is manifested by your buddha nature. Because it is not your eye that see. Your eye is like the optical lens of a digital video camera while your buddha nature is like the Display Screen of the DVC. Can you understand ?

[@snoo333]

@Unh0lymystic this may be the truth that you are speaking, unfortunately, even the when the worst person in the world speaks of universal truths, it rings true in the hearts people. people have to realize that all is in you. the reason you understand this is because none of us is higher than others in understanding the universe inside. I feel sorry for this man if he used his spiritual powers for sex. BEWARE, when guru's of any kind tell you that you cant make it without them.

[@netelsg]

2nd stage is a stage where one has no attachment to form. i.e. seeing things as it is without deluded thoughts. Seeing things at the present moment. This stage is still not enlightenment.

[@HYCbummojo]

another way to reduce thoughts per second to 0 level (aside from the help of an enlightened one) is to be dead. Then there is no thoughts...that is why dead people experience the eternal?? Ha ha...

[@vasant85]

haha, he made us realize that the key to enlightenment is "sex".
