Happiness and Peace is Your Nature - It Does NOT Come and Go!
Our happiness and peace is like the blue sky, like the silent background. It is always there. It does not come and go. It does not depend on the weather.
It is only through the confusion or ignorance of identifying exclusively with the body and mind, with the avatar, that we believe that our happiness and peace depends on the weather (thoughts, feelings, perceptions).
Adrian shows us in this video vividly through an analogy that our true nature of happiness and peace is the permanent background of all of our experience.
This basic step in nondual understanding brings a perspective shift that helps us to relax and to stop fighting with our humanness.
This is an excerpt from the online "Meetings in Beings" recorded on May, 25th 2024.

The Paths of Truth, Love and Beauty - Simply Follow Your Joy
zhlédnutí 134Před dnem
The authentic glimpse, the realization or understanding of what we are, our true nature is complete in that timeless moment. However, despite the great enlightenment myths of many Guru's, that this one event in time was the end of the story, for most of us, our experience is, that we have to establish ourselves in the experience and understanding of our true nature. Francis Lucille calls that t...
Guided Meditation: Resting in the Heart of Awareness
zhlédnutí 212Před 14 dny
A short guided meditation to find some deep rest and peace in the heart of awareness. Adrian guides us gently to our innermost center, to the 'place within' of quiet, silent knowing, 'where' we are always okay. This is an excerpt from the online "Meetings in Beings" recorded on May, 18th 2024. More (related) videos: Guided Meditation - Consciousness in Disguise czcams.com/video/FgJcF28YbLQ/vide...
The Separate Self Does Not Know How To Surrender
zhlédnutí 1KPřed 21 dnem
Only the true I, consciousness, is able to surrender, to let go of what does not serve us anymore. The ego can't surrender by willpower, it is not an active doing but rather an opening, a natural letting go of the beliefs, feelings and perceptions of the separate me. It is the nature of consciousness to be surrendered, to be open. All we need 'to do' is to get out of the way as a separate perso...
In Reality Nothing Has The Power To Make You Unhappy
zhlédnutí 290Před 21 dnem
Causeless joy, peace, love and happiness is the nature of our being. In no way can this causeless joy of our being be truly disturbed by outer circumstances, and if we do still feel personally affected by those, then we are still identifying with the body and mind as being exclusively our self. In other words, we are still suffering. Adrian also explains in this video that self-enquiry and self...
The Essence of Non-Duality - The Separate Me is an Illusion
zhlédnutí 332Před 28 dny
Q&A - Who dissolves what? If there is no (separate) me and no objects then there is nothing to dissolve or to be dissolved? In reality there is nothing but consciousness. The separate person or ego is an illusion. It is just a game of forgetting and remembering that we, consciousness or loving awareness, are playing with ourselves. This is an excerpt from the online "Meetings in Beings" recorde...

Breaking Free from the Human Predicament (through Experiential Non-Dual Understanding)

The common confusion or misunderstanding is, that our happiness or peace depends on the state of the body and mind. It seems so convincing that our thoughts, feelings and sensations are responsible for our well-being. Adrian contemplates in this 'Meeting in Being' on the apparent duality of being human AND consciousness. And how we can break free from this human predicament of being bound to ou...
How Can I Help? - The "Helper Syndrome" is a Distraction from Our Own Suffering

With deepening in understanding and love comes often the wish to help others and also possibly to share our understanding. To alleviate the suffering of our friends is natural and beautiful. Unfortunately the conditioned mind, the ego will adapt any strategy to run away from, or distract itself from our own suffering. The "Helper Syndrome" expresses itself in this need to help others, while we ...

And that the world is not only here to overcome it, to go beyond it, but that it was created for our enjoyment, to experience the beauty and love of a human experience. He then continues and shows that the end of su...
Taking Responsibility for our Happiness and Freedom | Nonduality
zhlédnutí 311Před 2 měsíci
If there are things that (apparently) have the power to make me happy, there will also still be things that (apparently) can make me unhappy or suffer. This is obviously not the true lasting happiness that we wish for, or more accurately, that is actually our true nature, consciousness. Eventually, we have to apply the non-dual understanding in our daily lives and take full responsibility for o...

    FINDING A GOOD TEACHER is very difficult. There are MANY teachers popping up, but very few I would consider authentic. But, Adrian is VERY AUTHENTIC… see for yourself. If you’re sincerely serious about the Truth, Love & knowing what you are… Start here. This isn’t about believing anything. Rather, it’s completely EXPERIENTIAL… SEE FOR YOURSELF. This is authentic & not really about self help or a better ‘me’…. Discover the Reality of your real essence. This is a path about Truth, Love, Beauty & Happiness… it’s that simple!!!
