Using a captivating VR headset analogy, I demystify the illusion of separate existence, revealing how individual consciousness emerges from a limitless ocean of pure awareness. Discover how the transient and illusory nature of dreams mirrors our waking life and how a simple shift in perspective can liberate us from the dream of isolation. Foster self-inquiry and recognize presence as the key to our authentic nature, nurturing compassion, empathy, and a profound gratitude for life. # Consciousness # UniversalAwareness #PurposefulLivin InnerPeace # SelfInquiry # VRAnalogy # Mindfulness # Empathy # g

But I’m still very tied to the egoic self through my emotional reactivity to relatively minor things.

    I think I'm between 2 and 3, and occasionally even 4. But I'm still too attached to material possessions, and I'm not ready to let go. I like the comforts that money can provide. Does that mean I'm less spiritual? Is being materialistic the opposite of being spiritual? Hope you can shed some light on this. 🙏🏽

    • @drmindfulness
      @drmindfulness Před 8 dny

      This is a common misconception. Enjoying material possessions is not less spiritual. The question to investigate is whether or not you are attached to the material possessions. Attachment causes suffering, not objects. To explore attachment to material possessions ask yourself what would happen if you lost one of the possessions or if one of your possessions was damaged.

    What Mooji Baba just said is more than powerful and relevant; it is critical to the possibility of one finding Their Self. There were times when it was the man, Jesus, speaking; there were times when Consciousness (with a capital "C"), what Jesus and Mooji Baba refer to as the "I AM", what religion calls "God", spoke using Jesus voice and lips. When Jesus said, "No one commeth to the Father, save by me", the "I AM" was saying "the only way is to Know Me". However, Jesus put us in the same boat with Him, saying, "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you." Again, Mooji Baba referring to what Jesus said regarding Truth, "...and the truth shall make you free." Look at the entire verse, which starts with the one before it: "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." John 8: 31-32 Holy Bible, King James Version. "...my word" refers to Jesus' teaching, which, of course, is the message in that teaching. Christian theology suggests that that which it calls "God" is omnipresent. This would not be possible if the "I AM" was not the Self that we actually are. Both Rupert Spira and Mooji Baba speak of "Realizing" One's Self. Knowing One's Self is the culmination of all "seeking". It is the Realization in Self Realization! Let's consider a silly little supposition which may help... Assume there is a giant wad of bubble gum as large as all the Universe. Now assume someone had the ability to reach out to that wad of bubble gum take a small pinch, roll it between their fingers into a little ball, and then with it still attached to the wad, string it out and place it in the chair in which You are sitting. So, in this silly supposition, that ball of chewing gum is you. If a horse has a rope around its neck and the other end is tied to a post, the horse, the rope, and the post are all connected. However, that ball of chewing gum isn't "connected" to the wad. It, the strung out portion, and the wad, are all a single entity of bubble gum. They aren't connected! This is the case w/ us. We aren't connected to omnipresent Consciousness (with a capital "C"); we are part and parcel with It. We are a manifested extension of it, as is all the Universe. The deficit, what is missing, is our Awareness of this fact, i.e. our Awareness of Our Self. Its just that that Self isn't what we have always taken our self to be, i.e. body, personality, ego, psyche, career abilities, social skills, etc. This is why Rupert, repeatedly tells us to "reverse our Attention, direct it inward, that we might gain Awareness of what is there, the Self that has never changed, never aged. If you would Know Your Self, simply Know that "THERE - ISNT - ANYTHING - BUT - YOU". To Know Your Self, You must give Your Self Attention. Worship is spelled A T T E N T I O N! It is perception, specifically, everything we always took as ourselves, which prevents us waking up. Get that there is only one piece of bubble gum, THERE - ISNT - ANYTHING - BUT - YOU, and your years of "searching" are finally over.
