I found Bryon Katie's method very helpful. After a while, i feel like i don't make as much judgement. Then, i start noticing that i could stop trying to change anything, be it the future or the past. It feels like i am just here.....with a lot of peace.
Eric is great, so down to earth and gives good, clear advice and guidance. Thanks for the upload.
Eric is a true yogi, just laughing his ass off after explaining what’s going on.
great interview
Excellent exchange
Eric comes out here differently here than in his videos .... lighter and carefree ( less " 38:23 self conscious "😂😅😂. Good interview!
Love this interview! Still there is an subtle imprisonment in saying that there is something YOU can do or not do….
Herlof, do you think Eric's message is different to Tony Parsons and Kenneth Madden?
Yes, I agree Herlof
There is just this appearance. Simply just nothing. Hahahahaha
@@mikebell4435 Yes😉
@@mikebell4435 Eric adds activities to calm the character/ persona. Tony labels the character and all activities, appearances.
I am wondering about the principles of distinctions between 'right and wrong' or 'good and 'bad'. There are moralities that govern societies. How can it be true that nothing is wrong? How can all the world wars that are happening, loss of life, destruction, and negativity not be wrong, especially in a moral sense?
I feel like when one is very conscious, they only want to be truthful and loving. There's no morality, because there's only good will.
And.. only in my opinion... I think that saying there's no right and no wrong just means that reality is what reality is, it can't bee anything else. There are no shoulds or should nots, because there's no alternative.
Right / wrong, good / bad and all other dualities are products of the mind. That doesn't make it 'right or wrong', it just makes it what it is. The mind conceptualises reality to limit the limitless and avoid overwhelm - a completely natural process.
(Seemingly) as one becomes more conscious/expansive that which is considered 'moral' is a natural occurrence. There is no need to try to be 'moral' in the same way as you cannot try to be authentic. Moral / Right action is a natural effect of clear perception.
All of the examples you mention above have been happening throughout all of known history, and will continue to do so. As long as the human mind is involved in worldly affairs, their will be conflict (natural mirror of the ego's conflicts). It is one's wanting to change situation that causes the sense of suffering. As J. Krishnamurti said - 'the difference between me and you is that I don't mind what happens'.
@@alexhickman thanks for the reply. I find it very interesting. However, I think it's easier not to mind when you're not the one who is being directly affected.
This is not the same massage as Tony Parsons communicates, just saying that the newbie’s here don’t get it confused.
So there's a seperate " Tony parsons"?
@@davidholm645 there is nothing separate, that what these kind of people are saying, but I don’t know, maybe it’s all bullshit 🫤
