- "Deep inside we know that we are the one who truly perceives. You are as the ultimate reality that perceives. You are the reality that perceives. You're not an element of the chain of perception. You are that which perceives."

I'm thankful for teachers like Francis Lucille.
Sharing my notes:
06:28 What Advaita means is very simple: it just means there is only one reality.
In ignorance, we believe there is more than one reality. (eg. that which is heard and that which hears)
We believe one dies (the perceiver) but the other doesn't (the universe). So if one dies and the other doesn't, it means they are not the same.
But if there are two realities, two independent realities that are independent of one another… how come they interact (in the act of perception)? If the seer and the seen interact, doesn't it mean that they are part of a bigger reality that encompasses both? If that is the case, none of those is its own ultimate reality.
15:10 We have to make a distinction between the chain through which perceiving takes places, the chain of instruments…
* Perceiving takes place through these glasses. I am not my glasses.
* It takes place through my eyes. I'm not my eyes.
* so on
…and the reality that perceives.
Another way to look at this: everything is interconnected, so there are no separate entities. Separate entities are concepts. You are the universe that dances locally, like the vortexes in a river. They move, have a seeming independence, but to extract them from the river is an illusion.
It seems to happen independently, on its own, but most of the things it does are on automatic pilot. Isn't the brain part of those things?
Thank you Francis 🙏
If you are universal consciousness then you are not separate consciousness who feels to like and want to produce something that it want. Then you serve the universe.
who ?
thank you, got moments of clarity from this.
This was absolutely great!! Very well stated! 💯💯
But this One reality brings your money just to Francis!?? Can be so unfair???
Thank you so much for sharing ..very good :)
very great explained in my opinion
Brain is also on automatic pilot..Yes Francis!
Thank you Francis , lots of love 🙏❤
Consciousness has no limits except those we impose upon it.
great!
Merci!
Classic!🙏🧡
Consciousness is likened to a screen upon which the entire creation is projected upon. At a micro level, the mind is like the movie projector, projecting it's thoughts upon the screen of Consciousness, and the senses are the audience, always looking for excitement on the screen and many a times just where it is with it being liked being served popcorn and ice cream, while the poor mind demands the attention of the senses, but it is just not interested 😅......Vedanta is about being a good, attentive, keen-to-learn audience of this movie called 'Life & Death - the Grand Illusion Shattered'.
i feel like the question may be better framed as how were decisions made about this perception of separateness (eg, rules of physics)? is it immutable? could the infinite consciousness decide people should suddenly have gift of flight? or are we locked into predetermined rules governing our perception of reality?

I didn't understand the relationship between the question and the answer.
those flowers are so beautiful. does anyone know what there are?

I have often asked the question offered by the young man: presumably what he meant by 'I' is an individuated self. Though it may well be the case that the fundamental nature of reality is a single self, a single mind; it is equally fundamental that there is also separation however illusory you consider that separation to be. I am individuated and as such i have different thoughts and desires to other individuated selves. I did not understand your point, it was very difficult to grasp. The question was why can 'I' not manifest an object by simply willing it, if i am the sum total of all that there is and if i poses/am the infinite power of consciousness? Am i to understand from your response that we already do manifest objects to perceive but it isn't as simple as simply wishing an object to exist in that particular moment because the one existent reality is one with governing laws?
PS i really liked the analogy of the vortices in a river and what you said about the human body being a way the universe dances.
"The question was why can 'I' not manifest an object by simply willing it" it´s a typical body-mind grounded question,
because it is not a question of the will nor a question of inteligence. It is a question of consciousness. Will is limited.
Jasmine blake is there any personal will at all? No manifest entity can will anything.. because its just an object.. a manifestation itself. Haha
The will is always the impersonal will.
Life is a mystery whereby a human being who is only an object of consciousness possesses potentially and virtually the same intrinsic power of universal consciousness or God.
However, we must first of all forget all objective reality and reason and resonate according to the true subjective reality.
Neville Goddard explains this well through a good decoding of the Bible.
'' The Father and I are One, but the Father is greater than I, for the conceptor is always greater than the conception. "
God became man so that man could become God
I would ask this question. You recognized yourself. Realized. You are now consciousness not the bundle of feelings etc. like we are. You are not less than God himself. Then please manifest something for us. He cant manifest because he is in the beginning of the path which begins after 2nd stage of realization. But it is possible. Many things are possible. It requires time. 8 siddhis were mentioned in scriptures...
I love advaita...but on the other hand when one has complex trauma it brings questions that are often bypassed by teachers.
If don't manifest...what chooses that one illusory seperate being eexperinces a lot of trauma and another doesn't...
'You're One All Person, aka Universal Consciousness', with no break in the continuity from local to Cosmic. Why no break? Because You're the Indivisible all-persasive reference field. Only what 'is not what it seems to be' is the break that causes a separation from the flow of intent to manifestation. That separation is you manifesting your isolationist conclusion since you never stop being Universal Consciousness'. The question is rooted in ignorance, a strong belief that he is separate from Universal Consciousness and not able to instantly manifest, hence the result, his conclusion is the command.
Can u instanly manifest?
Stanford can't define an woman is
if Francis is the ultimate reality, then why can't he produce objects out of space like sun or moon or even a new species?
Uh clearly, he did - given that I can see a sun and a moon and various species.
If you are considering "Francis" to be separate from that-which-created-the-sun-and-the-moon, then "Francis" is finite and thus not the ultimate reality.
vikas arora did you even listen to this talk haha. Listen again ☺
Better you stick to watching those. Silly Indian movies, where people run around trees?
