UG has got to be the most honest man I've ever heard talk. He is an impeccable speaker.

[@ketankshukla]

"Thought is fascist by nature" - this is profound!

[@Kobe29261]

He is filled with profundities - whether the real-estate is a piece of heaven or a beachfront property, the goal is the same! To acquire a piece of the pie! I have an existential crisis with each of his talks and videos I watch - its becoming almost boring.

[@joydevghosh8017]

J Krishnamurti prepared a ground which was used by U G to deny every religious authority including that of J Krishnamurti. His intention, like J K,also was to keep his listeners free from the unwanted influence of all authorities .In his later years he even told his listeners to take what he says as the barking of a dog so as to keep them uninfluenced by what he says.

[@a6hiji7]

Even the Buddha asked to question everything, inclduing himself. That was 2.5 thousand years ago, but not that humans have changed much. JK was useless, no one really understood what he was blabbering about, so they started thinking he must be saying something great! UG is nothing but a naturalist, but he always gave the impression that he has known and understood everything, so would just reject or negate anything that he could not explain. And he did bark a lot, that is, said a lot of unnecessary bullshit. Of couse, if you told him that his ideas were nothing but naturalism then he would have said something lile "no, no, all those naturalism etc. are just bullshit spread by some useless bastards".

Absolute objectivity...UG brings in you and I and them only for functionally communicating the matter. Otherwise, egolessness, as we know it as absence of boundaries, is abundantly evident in UG's being

[@kkop4982]

He probably comes out as angry, because nobody got his message at that time. He makes many valid points and probably got tired to repeat the message.

[@a6hiji7]

I don't think so. He clearly had a bitteress and grudge towards people who were considered "gurus" or "spiritual masters". I have never heard him speaking about anything without name calling and reputation bashing, In fact 75% of his talks are about others and how they are wrong and how they are all con men. The rest 25%, he said what is essentially naturalism, but he thought he was ingenious.

[@thenacregod]

Enlightenment is not a thing to reach and achieve.

[@raduioan6619]

Jiddu speaks through him. Absolutely Wonderful. And yet, even all this spiritual quest is just nonsense, that's what helped him to get to this 'natural state'. Or better said, the end of the spiritual quest, but there was a spiritual quest in the beginning. So in the end, is not nonsense at all. So from what I can see, he is not against "spirituality", he is against the word-spirituality, against the meaning of it into our society and against the sheep mentality of humanity. If we stop giving meaning to anything, to the spiritual quest, to the so called enlightenment, If we could stop the process of thought, than something would change in us and we would go back to the natural state. But here is a paradox, and that is that we have first to realise with the help of thought that thought is the illusion, and that we are better without it as in our present state, and like this we find if we look, different methods that help us to break the thought structure. The thought is aware that the it has to collapse in order to function better. Ramana said that once one "attain enlightenment", what will remain will be like a dead tree but still rooted in the earth. It takes time untill the dead tree really falls. UG is the "dead tree".

Arjun The origin of "spiritual" is the Latin word spiritus meaning breath. Are you sure that all forms of spirituality are bs? Just a question :p

[@a6hiji7]

Yes, just like music, arts, sports, love. Essentially everything that is "human" is "bollox". Just eat, sleep and copulate - that's what the body is for.

[@ronsmid2695]

Not everyone is looking for permanent happiness as UG is stating. He makes people feel embarrassed for trying anything. And what about him and his decades of searching for enlightenment. And when he clearly discovers it, he denies its existence and states he cannot help anyone and the search is futile for anyone else. This is apparent in all of the videos. The man is clear, but blemishes so many others.

[@lecturesbeyondbeyond]

He does the right thing though. He knows that they will get over-attached to whatever he says or recommends basically. In a manner of "you want this? you can have it when you don't care about it no more". Not that he can give anyone anything, but "inspire" towards that goal. I think he did the right thing and never created a cult or a following of people not ready and who'd just begin to bicker among each other in the same manner followers always do after their "guru of choice" passes away. U.G. was too good for this game. He has the nukes and cannot say anything about it to people who will use them for every small aspect of their lives - not realizing it's just a safety measure =) By the way, U.G. was not a road model at all, look at his family life and relationships. Much of what he talks about, or more has the attitude about, is a way to rationalize his choices in life. We all do that, but we can take a moment out of it. Call ourselves for what we were, what we are and look forward to what we can become.

[@farrider3339]

Ron Smid : as far as i capture UG's sayings is : He cannot help anyone AT ALL , because what happened to him ( if so true ) is a *highly individual + UNIQUE* occurrence. CAN'T BE COPIED OR REPEATED AT ALL. "NO assembly line for such things !" he said ... Either it *hits* you or it doesn't .•°

[@satishm5260]

🤦🏽‍♂️if you clearly observe whatever you do is for happiness only hence you are looking for permanent happiness

Liar, ofcourse it's for happiness. You think you will be satisfied and happy when enlightened. You think enlightenment is something to reach and achieve. So you stay in pain.

Quantum mechanics (Bell’s theorem) assumes statistical independence (free will). If you don’t accept that you instead have superdeterminism. Quantum mechanics is an approximation based on a false assumption.

[@bhargavgoku05]

No you should've never given up. Because he wanted you to realise something more. He doesn't believe in saying this is bad or that is good. He wants you to give up on this illusion, that there's a you which wants something either good or bad. The body simply doesn't care for all this. It is put here to live and it shall do that. Once we get rid of the you or the I, then there's nothing called your addictions or my addictions. Everything is blown off. It doesn't come by accepting anything or rejecting anything. It is simply there.

[@bhargavgoku05]

Heroin is not the answer or solution. It will only harm your body or your bank account. It creates addiction. Better not to have addiction, attachment or dependency on anybody.

[@scottmullins3998]

I get the "gist" of what you are trying to portray. We all have our paths in life and a being focused on spiritual connection is no better that a being focused on human desires. But I do have this one thing to relay. If personal wealth outweighs your belief in God then either you are on the wrong path or perhaps this is something you may learn in your next lifetime. Money can bring about many great things if used properly but the greed factor can destroy even the purest of hearts and minds.

[@nickilovesdogs8137]

Almost All humans are severely greedy. It's a fact. Has religion changed this? Nope.

[@nickilovesdogs8137]

***** Of course. Greed is Ego. And Ego is also dependency. Standing on one's own two feet emotionally and financially is often going against the Ego.

[@michaeldelisieux5252]

+Nicki LovesDogs Ditto!

[@coldfuture9]

Both are beliefs. No belief is True. To accept one is to open the flood gates and accept them all. To differentiate beliefs is shadow play, there is none. The mechanism that fuels the belief in God, shares the same platform as the one that fuels the belief in material gain. Whatever your notion; whatever structure of belief you erect on top of Self is secondary to the unequivocal fact that the Self is false. That's the subtext. Regardless of all else, this isn't something you study, this is extreme skepticism. This is where philosophy stops, because philosophy would eat itself alive. It kills philosophers, and theres no glory in making a study of it. It's your life on the chopping block.

It is the mind which has embodied the Soul, for mind’s own pleasure and pastime. Physical eye is the medium that uses to power of Sight of Soul, that eye feeds mind. When Soul attains freedom from Mind and Body, Soul regains freedom, sight to see in all the 10 directions. Pure one pointed concentration itself is Soul, a portal to other dimensions. UGK reacts, trapped in/with his own state of mind.

[@freespeech4227]

+George Vartanian Inorder to see what he say , you may need lots of courage. The Negative vibe is created in you . Why? Because your mind do not like what he says. He says the fucking absolute truth. No sugarcoating. I can explain any question on UGK in detail way. But you need to remove your ego before that. Also hide your belief system and ready to get abused. Why abuse? Because in order to show human problem , you need to use strong weapon to go against conditioned mind. To wake up the slave mind you need to induce accident (abuse). There is something you must understand , you , me or ugk all are same level. We just have different context.
