Actually there are some words that describe the feel of it quite well: e.g. silence, spaciousness, transparency and freedom. Were you the one that said reality is "fresh"? I love the unpretentiousness and simplicity of your videos. I love the direct pointing. Are you German, Dutch, Swedish????

Thanks for your videos. Call me the unenlightened 🤣😂🤣 Never believed in gurus or prophets or any human being that was going to teach me anything. The only person I have been listening to the past few years was Alan Watts and only because he has passed. I took on some of what he said but I understand him better now because of you. Shortly before falling into this room. I have been working on erasing myself. (I have been thinking of suicide since I was 10 and I am 55 now. Almost daily). But this erasing I have been doing is to mentally draw myself in chalk and then mentally erasing my image. I believe this has got me here in this room. A lot of fear has left me now. 💕❤️💕❤️

​@@ascendor.ascendor maybe you and Eric Putkonen from @NondualityChannel can do a video call together afterwards in Hawaiian shirts, he seems a fan too😄 Title of the video: "Do Hawaiian shirts lead to enlightment, or enlightment to Hawaiian shirts?"

If I am the watcher (awareness), then who or what is controlling my body and making decisions?

[@peterkoehling]

Waking up is a hard thing to do. The chatter can be overwhelming.

[@ryanocallaghan8468]

Very true mate ,how can you be aware of the entties/ identitys in your sleep its like the doors wide open it takes time to become aware again in the mornings to rid what happened in sleep and that's having pure awareness before sleep but still the mind chats waffle first when wake , what's helping me is to repeat thoughts just before sleep is tommrow I will wake up clear minded and more aware ,thoughts do change the vibration of the actual awarness even if they belong to you or not hope this helps

[@ranmad415]

Thanks for another insightful video. I have noticed that the more I noticed my thoughts and catch myself being pulled into identifying with something, the less it seems to happen and the lighter the gravitational pull to that idea, concept or belief becomes over time. And, my experience of being seems to broaden and lighten, if that makes any sense. Many thanks, Enjoy the day!

[@TheOne-gj6rr]

Awesome 🙏Mmmm.. .. I feel it...👌 Thank you for casting light on the ego being active in the morning - it happens to me too for this reason I go for a walk and meditate 1 hour in the morning. Today I had a friend calling me mitlple times today - he kept ending the call because others was calling him too and he needed to respond. Nothing in me felt disrespected because to feel disrespected I had to feel like someone - and I didn't! I just acted like a child would and went on to doing something else that excited me. ❤️

[@Solarballs2015]

I've been doing the who is the feeler? 😮 O wow..I love your laugh

[@ankitsondhi4083]

Again, kudos to you for trying buddy. The problem is language is not equipped to do justice to what is being pointed to. Hence only a pointing is possible. There is no watcher or a witness. As long as you are experiencing something you are not in a non-dual state of simple awareness. Experiences only happen to egos. When the ego drops both the experiencer and the experienced merge into one. Even that is not totally correct haha. yet there is great peace for a lack of better word again. The coffee tasted great this morning by the way!!

Love this guy. But I am so far behind the curve. I only have my little hacks. It reminds me of all the times behavioural physiologist kept telling me just be different. Intellectually I understand what has happened to him and his videos have shifted me. He has a 7 year head start. So I guess we have 7 years to look forward to 😎😎😎❤️

[@zitizen]

@@dottysaga4957 nice.. It's been 14 years for me

[@AstridPerellon]

Lately you are highlighting that we can rely on a deep intelligence to carry us and I'm very grateful that you keep pointing that out because sometimes awareness feels like irrelevant when I'm surrounded by problems. And I've been noticing that the more I remain aware, the more I feel what to do when it's time to think or act. ❤

[@ascendor.ascendor]

@@AstridPerellon I had phases in my life where I could never really relax, and I spent a long time searching for the reason why. Then I discovered that deep relaxation is only truly possible for me when I trust in life. There's something called Bhakti Yoga, which basically means devotion, and I think it's very important in the world we live in today because the constant urge to control everything stresses us out and completely takes away the beauty of life. Thank you for the comment. ❤️

It's funny, I watched a video this morning where they said "you can watch and read all the content in the world, but there is so much more content in the silence" The second video I watched today was yours ...haha...what can I say. I think, no, I know it's time to walk alone now. Thank you 🙏🙏

[@SoundOfFallingLeaves]

Before when I looked to inanimate object, I used to think how can awareness be in that? Now I understand how dumb is that thought. Nothingness doesn't need an animated consciousness, I know this intrinsically, it's not easily explained. I also, have that problem in the mornings, I have to be in constant vigilance. But at the same time it's no effort. Thank you for your videos. Your video with the hand brought me to my most recent glimpse, and this time it's stable, it is not going away like other times. Well, I don't grab this either, because I know if it has to go it goes. But until now, it's been amazing 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 And about what you said in the beginning, it's true that actively searching for videos and books that are aimed to our awakening can be damaging to find it. But is also true that once it's understood, watching videos about enlightenment is like watching anything else, it's life happening. And it is an interest like any other, like enjoying watching football. Me I find it's beautiful to talk about these things.

[@ascendor.ascendor]

@@SoundOfFallingLeaves Hey, thanks for your comment. Yes, the constant searching really makes us believe that there's something out there that we don't already have but desperately need. That's the misconception. But once it's "understood" - and by that, I mean that it's understood that there's nothing to understand - it truly doesn't matter what you do, because whatever you do, you do it out of freedom and not because you're trying to grasp something. :)

[@SoundOfFallingLeaves]

@@ascendor.ascendor You're spot on. I truly thank you.

[@tractordriver8950]

I started doing meditation along with EMDR recently and my blood pressure is now very high why is that?

[@tinekebo]

And when the chatter finally subsides and the watcher is nr 1 experience, I find that although I long to stay in this place, there also is a kind of desire or habit to go back to the ego thoughts, the Seeker and the Fixer, or my sad feelings etc, as if I am addicted to them. "Cought you!" "You may help me in MY time..." Love, Tineke

How can one see observer is observed practically right now , not just understand through the example of dream ?

[@bhavinacharya9404]

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking but based on what I understand I'll try to explain. When you observe something-a thought, feeling, or even an external event-try not to label it as something separate from yourself. Notice how the mind tries to create an "I" that stands apart. The moment you realize that this division is artificial, you come into a state of pure awareness without judgment or conflict. Eg. Next time you feel confused, simply change the thought or observation from " I am confused" to there is confusion " just remove the" I" from it. You'll still see the confusion without calling it my confusion. Just like you can see a car on the road it doesn't have to be your car to see the car. ❤

[@Venom_590]

@@bhavinacharya9404 ‘next time you feel confused simply change the thought’ if i have to change the thought i m still dependent on my thought and i m still unable to see it factually, it is just a intellectual understanding which is still superficial. I m talking about seeing right now as fact and droping the false .

[@Venom_590]

How can i see me (observer)and car(observed) are not seperate?

Is the experience of seeing the car ever separate from your observation of it?

@@ascendor.ascendor ‘ is the experience of seeing the car separate from your observation of it’ No But still can you rephrase it in an easy way for me to understand? What i m saying is , is it easy to to see in dream me character in dream and all the happning is part of dream only but in this waking world how can i see that same reality? I mean this knowledge i m not observer doesn’t work , i still feel very much i m the observer.

Is it not the dualistic mind that divides the watcher from that which is watched?

[@corykeeler2655]

Pleasure and pain, hot and cold are things of this material universe. You are not part of it, but if you attach yourself to one side of any duality then you become it and are in it.

[@joel713]

The self that gets attached is also an object of awareness. My only point was, that which takes the position of the watcher is also observable. Appreciate the reply.

[@joel713]

Also wanted to mention, our dualistic mind interprets the internal from external. The hot from the cold etc.
