I know your unique experience is hard for you, but when you make these videos you give comfort to people who are trying to understand things. I feel peaceful when I watch this video, though you express an almost overwhelming awe. This must be your sacrifice for The All. You say everything is "nothing" but the character you are playing is very unique and one of a kind. Thank you for being you.
@@selvamthiagarajan8152 Would you walk into a crowded church and yell something like that? For those of us who do believe in non-duality, it is like Spiritual Law to us. I’ve had my own brief experience. If you don’t understand or don’t believe then treat it like a religion that you don’t know about and just respect it and walk away. I am sorry that you are so insecure in your beliefs that you have to attack someone else, a stranger, for believing something you don’t. But this is the curse of humanity and the reason why more advanced species don’t want to deal with us. We always think we are right, don’t we?
@@selvamthiagarajan8152 OMG. Full UFO disclosure is right around the corner. Any day now. When the Zeta Reticuli finally make their presence known to the entire world, boy will you feel stupid!
@@primalplasma nice; I would like to comment that what Selvam wrote may not nessesary be negative, just his own observation.
Peace
@@9na.D Supposedly we all secretly know each other and we are all playing a part in this cosmic charade. I'm having fun and I am sure he is too. You know, if Suzanne was in an eastern country she would have a grand temple built for her when she could spend the rest of her earth-bound days in meditation contemplating the wonder of The Absolute. People would come from all over the world to just spend time with her and hear her sage advice. They did it for Sri Anandamayi Ma. (Look her up on CZcams.) One day the people of the West will treat the spiritual gurus like Suzanne the same way. Let her sit by the beautiful tree, let her sit in the field and contemplate existence with us. She is as big as the trees she sits in front of!
And there are others on CZcams who are also close to God and they use their gifts to help people, quietly and with humility before The Everything. But each and every person, regardless of their awareness of their divine nature, play a part and a role. I choose to play the role of "hype man". Let's roll around in the mud of the world of matter and circumstance. There is a lot of adventure here! We all take part. When it is time to rest, we can go to the tree and sit next to Suzanne and listen to her tell us about how it is to be detached from the world and with God.
Don’t miss your daily appointment with the sun! ☀️
“I am devoid of duality. My form is formlessness. I exist everywhere pervading all senses. I am neither attached, neither free, nor captive. I am the form of consciousness and bliss. I am the eternal Shiva”.
Her silence is so loud, is all I want to say
Thank you Suzanne. Total resonance. ☺️
All there is is life, the undivided beloved. Anything extra is the duality dream. Freedom is simple, direct and obvious, to no one.
Unconditional love is all there is, appearing as everything. ❤
@@selvamthiagarajan8152 wow, what a strong response! wow!
Yes, absolutely and honestly, these suggestions are shared with anyone who is interested.
If there is no interest or resonance, the sharing would be inappropriate, and so they would remain unspoken.
So, 'you' Selvam are the beloved, the undivided beloved.....yes, I speak to some human exactly like this....angels, demons, friends, partners, children, parents, siblings, enemies, animals, plants, clouds, flowers etc etc...'they' are all the beloved, undivided, as are 'you'. But this largely remains unspoken, unless invited.
If 'you' are judging 'me', that is the beloved judging itself.
Like everything else apparently happening, judgment sometimes happens, unavoidably.
These words will either resonate, or not.
Either way, its impersonal freedom/unconditional love/isness/life/the beloved, resonating or not.
❤
@@selvamthiagarajan8152 No offense taken Selvam.
I guess I speak in simple, 'normal', natural language, in everyday life exchanges.
Not too much mumbo jumbo it seems, unless the other character is from another dimension, then it gets very esoteric, and, depending on which dimension, very humorous, that's for sure!:)
I'm suggesting that 'you' are the perfect expression of the beloved, as am 'I'. I cry when I'm sad, like everyone, I bleed when I'm cut, .... grief is not denied, it's all equally the beloved.
Nothing is denied, freedom is all-inclusive.
Crying happens, suffering happens, laughing happens, pleasure happens, apparently.
The words that might be offered to someone in deep grief would be most likely appropriately sensitive, spontaneous, and out of nowhere...yet who knows what will be said in any given moment?
What will be will be. It's simply inescapable:)
It's all the unavoidable, indivisible, unfathomable, undivided play of life.
❤
Yes, the experience is simply the realization that All That Is...including oneself, is Life and Life is the energy of Pure Unconditional Love. I'm happy to hear your deepening in your Conscious awareness. I'm of a generation that has been a spiritual seeker who had teachers and Guru's who created a foundation here so that when awakening occurred there was a readiness. There has been an acceleration of Beings awakening much younger and all on their own. Kudos to you Suzanne for hilighting a way for those awakening without a foundation to aid stabilizing in the Pure self. 💞🙏🕊
For Sure. One would not want to get to the end of their days only to discover that they never really lived.
I just realized your great, because no personal people stories..just lovely you..
life letting itself know through you... what a blast!!!
Thank you
I love how Love adds sound effects to make a point with the long pause of sirens after speaking about how someone's distorted pain can hurt others, 😆!
I love your courage in facing and sharing this experience.
Thank you ✨
Beautiful Woman
You're such a gift
Beautiful! Thank you! ❤️
Thank you Suzanne
I just want to say that I love you Suzanne and hope you have a great day, great week and life. You are such a beautiful, wonderful, eternal being and deserve nothing but eternal happiness. Just by being alive and making these videos, you are far superior to most. Much love 💕.
I watch you when i feel lonely lol
Once again it’s so good to hear your voice and truth, Thankyou for being you, and I can’t wait to see where this wave takes you on your journey to success 🙏🏼
Hi, Suzanne,
So amazing.
Such a beautiful and helpful description of this falling away of the me.
Uncanny, actually, how familiar your description feels.
Funny, makes me appreciate the blessing of coming into this as an older man (I’m 65).
So much of the concern/fascination with the future has naturally dried up and fallen away.
Like the difference between pushing down a dead and rotting tree and trying to fell one that is still green and growing…
There is still structure and stubbornness in my “trunk,” but it’s also obvious that it’s simply time to fall…
🙏💜🔥🫥🦫
Great Dharma talk!
How lovely...❤️
Hi Suzanne. I am Grateful for what I am and have. My thanksgiving is perpetual.
Just subscribed. Heard u on Angelo 🙌🏽🌸
At the same time, just as we are all being with a unique body, we are all being with a unique experience of the world, that life is fully witnessing. No matter to what extent the ego/contraction is present, during the being.
Hello awakened one. I love you always.
You should just take it easy on yourself. You know you are the one at the settings. Just set to help yourself. You deserve it bc you are a good person. Change the laws into your favor. You control everything and you know it!!!
The cemetery is a nice backdrop to the separate self being seen as a lifeless illusion. The verb-ing of life constantly Being, never adding anything to Nothingness, is compelling enough. Nothingness is formless unless we pretend it isn’t. Our form is a channel for experiencing not a storage facility for experience. Much gratitude and unconditional Love for connect-ing.
“how i mean it is not how i say it”…
Koan : If there is no one home, who is the one who is suffering?
Thank you for sharing all this wise thoughts.
You are actually revealing the signs of the uncertainty of the times in which we live
A total break down this is what you are unknowingly preparing your listeners for not in the future it's happening now
It's the natural process of life, the end is the beginning
It's the natural cycle of life
Hi! Could you please go into more detail about what you mean by unconditional love?
I know anything being said in these videos cannot be mapped into what "really is" because human language and meaning are based on human experience, culture, conditioning (the me).
But love being such an overused word in our culture (even unconditional love, which is also a common expression in religious language), don't you think using that expression can be particularly misleading? For me at least, it feels a bit conflicting. Which other expressions do you think could be used instead?
Thank you very much!
Yeah I tend to have issues with it too haha
It is Love, the most complete and perfect version of it, not what people casually call love.
I like to use the word "contrast" too.
The "love" can mean a lack of separation or completness and also Spira talks about love in terms of the "sacrifice" the Infinite makes to give rise to the finite. Nonduality shouldn't be anthropomorphised. All this is using dualistic language so it has its limits.
Te quiero, gracias.
you're waxing poetic!
Apparently my coworker(Robert)'s mom has been waxing, and apparently it's been a generally positive thing for the community.
I apologise for being judgemental but some of that sounds very negative (understood positive/negative doesn't matter anymore). I'm generally a happy person, was raised to have a healthy self-regard and self-confidence, and life has generally gone my way. I'm far from perfect and I've had challenges like everyone else, but I've overcome them so far. I understand what I wrote is due to egos/thoughts that are ephemeral. So it's difficult to relate to statements about pain and reflections. Maybe you're speaking to those who've had such a difficult life. I thought about not posting this and then I thought maybe there are others like me. I appreciated your description of the transition which I believe is rare. At the same time, the transition can also be gradual and not "wow inducing" (which may only occur when the spring is more wound up).
I only thing i will always not resonate with is that i am not real i don't exist but i do resonate the rest you said i even also resonate that there is no separation
It's just crazy because you would think it would get easier, lol. The contractions just get worse and worse. It's hard because you want to cry to your family, but they can't really understand what you're going through.. Thankfully some random person on the internet can empathize. Lately I just feel like I'm standing in a fire.. yeah it's fairly painful. I just know though at the end of this process we'll be able to just sit back and laugh.. or maybe it just continues like this? Who knows.. haha :)
Beautiful, Roy.
Years ago, I described one aspect of my experience of this as a “forest fire of my own making.”
So much was burned away, thankfully. And you’re so right, no real way to explain to family or anyone.
Just burn.
And eventually the stripping away has its own beauty, its own relief.
Happy for you, even as I know it’s not always a happy experience.
All the best…
🔥🤬🫥⭕️💜🙏🌻
@@macparker3549 I'm starting to laugh a bit more 2 months later. A lot of resistance was here.. still a lot. But seeing through the falsity of it, and how there was never any reason to be afraid. My story is essentially a miracle because I was suffering so much.. and I didn't really even know it. Thankfully, God is with us, much love!!
@@roycohen.hi I’m currently on my journey and have u ever feared wondering what might come next?
@@lovelyfoodiesbakes2425 Only a person would fear anything.
@@roycohen. I guess this journey is a roller coaster lol
Hi Suzanne, i hope you could do un episode on your current perception of failure or success in this apparent world. is it something that does not exist and lost of meaning completely? as i feel my huge unhappiness is the despair generated from things falling out of expectation or failure.
Hashtag "eckharttolle" LOL

You are like a tuning fork
The following may be overboard, but I wonder if you have viewed Anna Brown;
"the following is on a posting on 'Wonderfully Nothing':
"You only feel fucked by life because you aren't fucking back."
"Make Love To Life!"
~Anna Brown
Even so, life is what it is... and yes, simplicity is honesty in the absense of judgements.
My rebuttal to 13:20 ?
"Ur mom's been persistent"
And yet reality, existence is beyond description, words, thought are limited, abstraction, bits and pieces, never whole, anymore then a painting of the universe is the real, the whole or the word cake or the picture of a cake can be eaten as the real cake
given on your way of thinking, I think you'd resonate with Lacanian psychoanalysis, if you want to give it a go :)
@@pawa7714 Eye looked into Lacanian psychoanalysis and found that it has a point, a frontier, goals and what it says is a structuraliess structure
For myself it's about observing the whole dynamic as it unfolds without adding or substracting or isolating or dissecting
It's never the same there is always more to see
@@alxartzen
I do see your point, but, while Lacanian psychoanalysis does have certain concepts and structures, its goal is not simply to observe without analysis or interpretation. Rather, it is a framework for understanding the human subject and their relationship to language and desire, and it emphasizes the importance of exploring the unconscious and the ways in which language shapes our experience. It can offer valuable insights and perspectives for individuals seeking to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences
I believe it's a nice tool with which to widen your scope, it's a nice way to not only widen your range of accessible perspectives, but also deeper your understanding of it :)
also, lacanian psychoanalysis is extremely broad, very dynamic and can roughly be applied in a lot of areas, often combined with other schools of thought of different fields as well :)
@@pawa7714 Two words "human subjects" ( lab rats)
No thank you sir
Whole listening, meaning the whole movement of the transfer of energy being transmitted watching as it flows, breaks in every direction, never in a linear way, like one is building or watching or interacting with a rigid structure, that needs to be re-aligned back to the straight narrow fixed structure of beliefs.
So that the programmers of the linear can track the programming they installed.
Suzanne, I assume and understand that you started looking for truth out of pain.
Pain from being a child, not loved unconditionally by your parents.
They wanted you to have a husband, kids, a good education and profession, maybe more so, because you are from an Asian family, I suppose.
And now you are on the path of awakening, and few people, especially your family don't understand, they say you are crazy, visiting graveyards and all, they think it is creepy and crazy, they don't understand it is not that you want to talk to the death, just be in a place of quiet, although I always hear police sirens and train sounds, lol.
So now loneliness, and betting it all on something so strange.
You had your glimpse, and the old self keeps nagging now and then. Why give everything up? It's so radical and nothing to show for it.
Now my story: I was always interested in zen en I found the Christian narrative so stupid and simple:
So we are sinners, but then Jesus came, and he took our guilt (what guilt if we were born into this?) and if you try (but never 100% can) live a sinless life, which is impossible, you have a chance for heaven. Yeah, as if I want to sit forever in the company of those church people.
In my opinion: the soul is without guilt, or sin, innocent and free, no gender either, I suppose, and no name.
So, of course I have to live in the world, so I need money, I was too proud to beg.
I have to work. It is supposed to, you have to work and be normal.
So I liked to gamble for free money, all my life. Roulette and the lottery.
I discovered I had some clairvoyance in my DNA. It worked well, sometimes amazingly, to predict the future.
In the beginning, I was afraid I would destroy the fabric of space and time by interfering with the future.
But, I thought: all is happening as it is supposed to happen, there is no other way.
If I reached this by clairvoyance, or pure luck, the outcome is the same, so I did not do anything wrong.
Everything happens as it is supposed tho happen.
This started all this path to enlightenment, it was my way to awaking, just by accident, I was not seeking it, just the skill to predict.
I trained myself to be even better, so it resembled a lot like meditating.
I saw numbers passing in my mind, I learned I just had to look, do nothing and just don't judge, don't impose your preference or logic and wanting to change things which are true. It has to come by itself.
By accident, I became partly awakened. I understand now why: normally I observed numbers from the future, I could not lift my hand to utilize them to make money. This annoyed me: I knew the future, and I did nothing with it to profit.
Bear with me, I am not crazy at all.
So I was awakened, but in the corner of my mind was a piece of my old self, which wanted to act en do.
This piece of my old self-made himself arrogant, because I was somewhat better than other people and almost like a god.
I was very compassionate en generous. I felt so free, I had no memory, I lived in the now and I had no feeling of time. I saw my body do the thing by itself.
The world was vibrating, I felt so strongly that everything just happens as it is, and there is no other way than thing are. I invited somebody to drink in a bar, he was suspicious, why you invite me and are so generous to me?
Nobody is expecting unconditional love.
I restricted my generosity, so I restricted my final awaking.
Now I understand.
I got back to my old mean and hard and selfish ways.
People are blind and obnoxious, but I understood and had compassion.
But I knew, one could never explain all this to people who don't think about everything very deeply.
Again arrogance.
So the last part of my soul clamped with both hands on this harvesting of psychic powers, and feeling better than other people and different.
But I surely experienced awaking, I know what it feels like.
For me, I think I had to change my lifestyle too much. And how I would live, I mean money and houses and work. So, I was afraid to live like that, and I choose for an ordinary life.
Later in life, I was never really happy, because I knew the feeling of being awakened exists.
I have always compassion for animals, although nature can be seen as cruel, but that's how life has to work. If nobody dies, then there will be no new life, just old sick people and animals, that is not possible.
Life is a sort of jubilation of energy, dancing just for fun.
So, because I was an observer of my thoughts, very deep concentration, it started this spacious, vibrating world, where everything happens, just happens, without judgment, but beautiful, it changes all the time, don't even hold on to one millisecond, because then you are not in the space/state.
Well, it gives energy, and it costs energy.
I was thin, I was so free in my movements, literally.
But I lived with obnoxious people, although I understood where it all was coming from: conditioning, upbringing, culture, repeating the same shit and second hand experiences, I understood their pain and I understood also, it would be difficult to help them.
The people at work and in my life made my life difficult, punishing me for being lazy, different, creative, free. Brutal honest, being able to quietly and objectively looking inward, very precisely observing the workings of it all.
Without effort. Different as for example: Christianity: be a good person, that is not from the real inside/spirit/soul/universal energy. You know what I mean.
I observed how the mind tricks you.
I think one needs to have some knowledge of psychology and some intelligence to deduce and think about it all.
Although in the end, awakening is not intellectual, but sometimes one has to think oneself out of the confusion and narratives and old presumptions, and just look at things cleanly as a child, and to be so honest, and feeling the honesty.
So, that's why I am not so awakened as I was before. I can defend myself with all the psychologic tricks, like revenge, sarcastic behavior like lying, just to survive.
I know it is not supposed to be, I want everybody in the world is awakened, so there will be no war, abuse and animal cruelty.
It is like putting a net like a fisherman over water, only interested in the fish and nothing else, not seeing everything there is, just from a selfish perspective,
The self mind is a computer program which plans, reflexes on older mistakes, making elaborate plans for gain, all to survive.
We can not just be: we have to do something.
I thought: if we were trees, there will be less of this feeling, an urge to do and go.
Just let it happen.
But a tree also has an urge to grow towards the light, still has a desire. If we were a worm in the sea, just a tube, waiting until the food reached us.
But, we developed eyes and senses, to seek out the food and to move toward a goal.
And at that moment the will (the Self) developed.
Moving toward something in the future, something we want, follows from the possibly to move yourself and see things you want, e.g. food. Just a philosophic thought.
Be aware of the old self, clinging on in a corner and making itself big again, now the thing, it has awakening in its power. Funny how the mind works.
One has to be so introspective, observing how one's treachery and silly and childish and logic mind works.
It is just a good working serving tool. Can we trust to just let it be?
What will happen to me and my life? Will I be an outcast? Yes.
Will I be lonely, while bursting of love for all and everything? Yes.
So, my old self chose to continue in its wicked ways, lol.
Although knowing and experiencing one-on-one awakening sometime.
That's my story.
The soul is innocent, and everything happens to us. One day, I observed myself driving my car, while I was driving. It felt like a machine was doing it, very funny and scary. I knew I was not crazy.
This is a long story, maybe, I know you will understand.
I love you, I know what you are talking about is real. That's all I want to say.
Nicely written
Hi Suzanne. I don't think you will answer this, but just in case, I would really like to know: do you wish you hadn't had those realizations?
I wish I had known so much better than disrespecting and humiliating my own body.
The term "love" is subjective to one ls experience desired usage.
That makes the phrase "everything I just pure love", a bit nonsensical, and I mean nonsensical in its dictionary definition.
This is great advice for mediocrity.
I suppose such a thing as a lie does not exist, eh ?
Many times, things are just presented to distract people from the existence of lies, in their pure definition.
P.S. I am not giving advice, not really. And, I, does still seem to be a thing, here! Even so, there is the awareness in some way of the absolute, where no comparisons exist.
Perhaps you mean the thought made programming called life.
That take form as societies, civilizations, religions, beliefs, ideologies, tribes, race and class
the term you're looking for is symbolic order :)
Maybe you should try a workout
the three can't exist if there is no duality .
Anyone that believes this is the most difficult thing.. lol...🤕... then that person has chosen a perspective that enables a self induced mechanism within that causes an addictive personality.
Suzanne is an emotional critter..... many critter's that rely upon the mercy of human's, have no mercy from the people, that are driven by emotional responses... :).... funny thing about non-human critter's.... they could exist without humans, but humans cannot exist without them....
Spend your time at the cemetery, trying to make meaning out of a 'flawed addict' perspective.. Is this good use of your time?.. maybe you help enable other's with the same addiction?
