When you realize everything is Awareness, the world will be seen as false - Ashtavakra Gita

Awareness is all that you are ever experiencing. There is nothing other than awareness here. All sense perceptions, sensations, feelings, thoughts are appearing in and made up of nothing other than awareness. Let's take a deep dive on this Ashtavakra Gita teaching today and make it experiential.

I am convinced that all the neurotic problems and mental health issues dissolve when you realize that the true Self is the unchanging pure awareness observing and noticing the mind which is the servant but not the master…

[@henkhooghuis1680]

The neurotic problems and mental issues still may appear but to no one.when the separate'Me" is dissolved

[@GoddessTier]

That is true, but the same words, said to one with a mental affliction, or even one stuck in the reactive mind, carry different meanings. It's like they are present but only able to see base elements. It's difficult to stay out of the reactive mind. I find only with abundant cycles of trial and error that I can maintain what I am in my active awareness. Over and over again, I come back to the same points.

[@ThermaL-ty7bw]

well , no , i've known all this nonsense for years , but WHY would you make sh*t up to feel good about your life ? isn't That the hole point of this crap ? to learn ? how are you going to learn Anything , if you take the easy road ? you might as well join a religion , for the same reason , it's easier , no need to go out and meet people , there is already a community there , no need to learn ANYTHING about the world cause god did it , job done , no more to learn here , just waiting to die then ....

[@themmydiedrichs8107]

I agree. I had lots of mental emocional issues and it all dissolved when i find myself through yoga and meditation. Lack of faith is a big problem.❤

[@jgarciajr82]

​@@henkhooghuis1680 your mental issues don't go away because of this. Check your own experience and your own growth. Too many adults trying to be enlightened instead of wanting to mature. Check your emotions and see if you've gone past your mental issues 😂😂😂😂❤🙏🏼

[@jkd6969]

You are not the person, you are Awareness. You don’t exist. Awareness is all that is. You are never in the personhood which is only an appearance. …just an appearance, just an idea, just a thought appearing in Awareness ! Worth listening many times.

Sunny, thank you so much. I see it, it IS exactly like a dream. One of my “sticky” questions has been about why this “world” is so weird and crazy, and now I see…that is the nature of dreams, they are weird and crazy. 🥳🤩🤪Watch the dream, don’t get involved in trying to (erroneously) control the dream. Perfect, thank you! 🙏🏻❤️

[@lorainevandermeer4347]

Thank you so much Sunny! That was fabulous and resonated deeply and I had little flickerings of excitement, as I grasped that all is the Self! Including all the things I thought were not......like conflict, my crazy mind, difficult feelings etc. Yes, it is very liberating! Thank you again!💖

[@stelladonnelly2832]

I think the nighttime dream analogy is very helpful and when you have a lucid dream which I sometimes do, the dream continues often for a bit, but there is such a sense of freedom, of knowing, regardless of the content of the nighttime dream. Its like we see things upside down or back to front Thank you so much

This is a really interesting,useful video. I especially liked the explanation of the dream state and normal life but living with forms,ideas of ourselves.

[@nolarocks]

All the way. Love the ideas related to dreams.

[@josephrego2527]

So, what you are saying is the world is the projection of one's awareness or perception. The world, "reality," doesn't exist as we perceive it. What we are perceiving is simply the projection of our individual and collective imaginations. What still has me somewhat confused is: Are awareness and perception the same? Perception is the projection of one's thoughts, sensations, feelings and sounds. Awareness is realizing that you are none of those things. You are simply that which is aware. Intellectually understood but difficult to grasp. I once said that love allows all things to exist. Having said that, I still continued to project my personal idea of the "perfection" I imagined the world should be. This realization is helping me to understand why I always encountered obstacles I could not overcome, leaving me frustrated. I've been swimming against the current all my life. Time to go with the flow.

[@SeanBissell]

Made it to the end. Thanks man!

How do you respond to claims that brain generates this so called awareness? What makes you so confident that awareness is all there is and separate from the brain/mind/body?

[@TheYugovic]

❤thank u

[@lingeshsawanth253]

It's awakening n pleasant to listen to you sir, As per the teachings, everything is nothing other than AWARENESS which is ANANDA itself, it means even all kinds of physical pains too nothing other than Awareness logically but can it be known/seen so experientially !? Are you seeing pain so? whenever you have physical pain however chronic it may be.. It's very very rare for us to witness such beings in our life, that's why I wanted to know it, in fact it helps us. Thank you 🙏

[@ujjwaladiya2471]

@@selfinquiryschool sir, its like sometimes when i am doing things, these thoughts dont come in complete sentences but words, but there's a fear that i have to think about them so that i cannot think, and then i sit and it comes and then it went away, like does it matter that i am thinking or not or am i sitting taking time then letting the thoughts pass, maybe i am finding the right way to let go, but all these are just objects and i should focus on me.

From my light the body and the world arise, so all things are mine or nothing is. Among the things of the world are other sentient beings. That is to say they have their own lights or awareness too. Does it mean that their lights is from my light? Or is my light from their lights?

[@selfinquiryschool]

What do you mean when you use the word “self”? When i see the word used I think of “ my self” which is 2. Myself and others. But I think you mean it as “I” or “Being “. Can you please explain? It’s confusing to me.

[@ThermaL-ty7bw]

so many pretty words that make a sentence that triggers people's emotional response , i wish more people would know THIS pretty word = precedent we KNOW the world is ''false'' , we've known for decades that there is 99% empty space in an atom it's the hole reason WHY we CAN say anything about it , cause we KNOW but that's about ALL we know , this is where the word PRECEDENT comes and has a look what the F is going on here ... if something DOESN'T HAVE a precedent , you can't bring it in to the conversation , if you want to talk about something REAL , speculate all you want , happy to do it myself , but KNOW that that's ALL it is , SPECULATION you got no leg to stand on , when you're just making sh*t up ... or take in things that other people wrote down for their amusement , that's NOT how the world works , people !! and certainly DON'T teach this nonsense to your children !!!
