Nonduality Offers Nothing

[@ayush4u4good]

Wow! Wow! Something exactly what I had been struggling with for so much time. Wish I had watched it earlier. Thank-you Teja Anand ji. It's that deep subconcious unwillingness that holds you off.

[@alwinvanderlinde5913]

This video appeared on the screen and I watched. Behind the soothing voice I can hear a strong and peaceful silence. There is the presence. No questions remain, no email needed. Bless you

Such sweet clarity.

Beautiful!

In past videos (and your website) you've talked about the collapse of the illusion (once you said bus stop as I recall and your web site says driving a car BTW). That is a shift in perspective/identity?

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

It _appears_ to be a shift in perspective, to the dream-character that thought it was real. But since it was always only illusion, the shift, too, is merely an appearance. To the Absolute Being, nothing happens.

[@RamSamudrala]

@@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767 So it's not that the absolute is temporarily misidentified as a dream character? The dream character has no agency here, right? So it's always the absolute, whether it is misidentifying as a dream character or not, no? The misidentification is the illusion and when it is realised, it is clear it never was. But the character isn't realising anything. It's the dreamer who is. The dreamer believes they are the dream character until they realise "just a dream", isn't it something like this? Or to put it another way, isn't the dream character also an apparent manifestation of absolute being? Definitely am trying to wrap my mind around it. :)

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

@@RamSamudrala Yes to every question you asked. But if you ‘wrap your mind around it,’ it will just be fun intellectual philosophy. Whatever Being is dreaming through “you” will be What Is.

[@RamSamudrala]

@@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767 Thank you for responding. I am aware (ha!) but it seems that's still somewhat where I am/Being is. Still about 30% thought-identified and mind activeness/intellectual philosophising. Still some identification with the dream character. Maybe I should've said mind is still trying to understand it all. You've made many videos like this. How come during meditation or most of the time I am present but not when things get stressful, etc. (paraphrasing)? The penny hasn't dropped yet for me entirely/permanently it seems. But maybe I'm just saying that. Being is shifting back and forth between remembering and forgetting. A few weeks back, for a nanosecond (which is too long, I'd characterise it as timeless), the penny did seem to drop and the identification with dream character disappeared and the absurdity of it all was revealed but then it didn't stick. I only have a memory of it ("absurd", timeless). Maybe it'll happen again and it'll stick but that's progress compared to before. Absolute Being working through me in mysterious ways, I guess!

[@spiroskatsas6888]

I agree with your point, it offers nothing but everything as well, heh. Perception is the key to "reality". As Aldous Huxley says in The Doors of Perception novel, "If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear as it is, infinite".

Beautiful Teja Ji 😊

Spot on!

Non duality 'teaching' does not get better than this!

[@joeolson6085]

Non-duality never says that suffering leaves once you feel you’ve achieved something wonderful by living with non-duality

[@ketchup5344]

Good stuff, cool speaker.👍

[@shakeelabanu614]

How can I apply this knowledge that I don't exist in my daily life, can u help me with practical examples. Thank you sir.

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

Quire obviously, non-duality is not 'applicable' in the daily life of an illusory "me." That would be a contradiction in terms. One who knows "they" do not exist, would, by nature, also know "they" have no daily life, and there is 'no one' to need practical examples :-) I have responded to your email of 8/25

[@shakeelabanu614]

Thank you soo much sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 blessed beyond!!

[@shakeelabanu614]

Respected sir, kindly help in knowing the concept of time that it doesn't exist and how to realise it.

[@shakeelabanu614]

How to take decisions in life regarding exams, studies how will I know which direction I have to go.

[@nadadenadax4903]

Non duality is about realizing that there is no humunculus in the head, it is about realizing how we are conditioned to think binary and how we define everything in concepts that come from the past. The dream is thought, not thinking. The dream is when you live through memory. Advaita Vedanta and other aproaches are therapeutic. And you can lough about your concepts, overcome binary thinking etc. Just don't take anything literal that is said.

I guess you’re just talking about your experience here

[@WilliamSalazar]

that’s kind of a downer … but it sounds like truth… so , let’s just live our daily lives like everybody else, the only difference is that ,in the back of our minds, we know that it is just a “video game”, an illusion .

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

Hehe:-) Only a "downer" in 'duality.' Only the illusory 'separate entity' could make such a judgment. _so , let’s just live our daily lives like everybody else,_ No. Just live your life like _Life_ is living your life, not "you." Or other "you's" (everybody else.)

[@WilliamSalazar]

@@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767 yes, I think I get it. it s about living life letting go of the false sense of control. i am not in control.

[@19792403]

No wonder Ramana Maharishi was hesitant to speak for a long time after "his samadhi" There is nothing else to be said. By the way, I am Siva from Quora in case you are wondering.😁

[@davidhughes6]

Not sure who you are speaking to. You seem to be focusing on people that haven't gone all the way into no self. You must believe this is common?

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

I'm speaking because people have asked. If no one asks, I don't speak. At the 'separated' level, we could easily say, out of 8 billion "me's," not having gone 'all the way' into 'no self' isn't just common, it's ubiquitous. At the Absolute, there are no 'separate entities' who go anywhere or need to.

[@Darksagan]

You just made a video about nothing for nothing which nobody is seeing. lol

[@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767]

Who is DarkSagan. And was this meant to be irony - the video itself being about there is Nothing and No One?🙂 Or meant to be taken as straight serious interpretation? In which case, it's inaccurate (look at the views # and the like/dislike #'s:-) I think you're going for irony, (lol) but ya' never can tell 🤣

[@Darksagan]

@@alreadyenlightenedwtejaana4767 It was just a play on words.
