Deep Intimacy With What Is, Amoda Maa Jeevan

  • Awakening most often happens in the mind as a recognition of the absolute truth of emptiness in which a separate “me” does not exist. Whilst this realization is undoubtedly a profoundly transformative experience, living this truth is more of a challenge. It seems that awakening is just the beginning: the embodiment of this awakening is the real journey. The adventure begins, not in the rarified atmosphere of transcendence, but in the midst of the turbulence of life. As awakening descends from mind to heart to body, we are called into an uncompromising embracement of both the ocean of inner stillness and the waves of phenomenal expression. One of the most frequent questions on the spiritual path is “How can we wholeheartedly meet the world without getting lost in it?” In other words, “How can we embrace the mystery and mess of the human experience without getting entangled in it?”
    The capacity of impersonal awakeness to be deeply intimate with what is, is a beautiful paradox of nondual awareness. A whole new dimension of spiritual maturity opens up to us when we recognize that absolute and relative are one, as inseparable as the waves from the ocean. Deep intimacy with what is means that we fully meet - as a present-moment reality -everything that appears in our perceptual field. Everything - both dark and light, form and formless, mundane and transcendent - is seen to be an expression of oneness, and so nothing is avoided, denied or feared. When you deeply accept that every experience is an invitation from the beloved, calling you to abandon yourself into the moment, that which is awake in you as love meets itself in everything and gives birth to a radically new way of living.
    Amoda Maa offers a gentle yet uncompromising pointer to authentic freedom. Her teaching - which is free of all dogma, ideology or tradition - has evolved out a direct experience of awakened presence amidst the depths of personal suffering. Having taken many years for this nod-dual awareness to integrate into ordinary life, today she offers satsangs and retreats to a growing global community. Her invitation is into the untamable fire of truth and to live the luminosity of this truth amidst the mystery and mess of human existence.
    Amoda Maa is the author of How to Find God in Everything and Change Your Life, Change Your World, and is currently working on a third book called Radical Awakening. She is also the founder of the ‘Foundation for Conscious Change’, a non-profit organization that supports her teaching.

    Just about the clearest expression of the misaligned state most people are in- beautiful clear pointing and guiding toward genuine total allowing/ surrender to realignment. What a wonderful lady and this message. Many thanks and gratitude- I will welcome and often avail myself on this video over & over until....

    "As long as there is an inner division between this and that...what is good and what is bad; what is spiritual, what is un-spiritual; what is enlightened, what is un-enlightened; what is awakened, what is un-awakened... as long as there is an inner-division, there is not true awakening, there is not true oneness." -Amoda Maa Jeevan

    She just made me realize I'm not alive, I'm not living. I'm dead inside, lost in the illusions. And no matter how much I extend love to others in pain, I have no idea how to give it to myself. I don't know how to find the path back to myself. 😞

      Just be your authentic self. You are more than alive, you are life itself.

      Life is hiding in your willing curiosity toward the dead place, befriending of illusions.

    The search for Atman carried out horizontally, the Atman Project, misses the boat until futility dawns, at which point the search goes vertical. Ken Wilber's "Atman Project" brilliantly goes into all this.

    Be the wave of the ocean you are meeting the totality in yourself through the first moment self awakening allows.

    What about those people whose problem is accessing basic needs in life, not even intending to get rich or fulfilled? Any advice to reduce suffering?

    “Oh soul, you worry too much. You have seen your own strength. You have seen your own beauty. You have seen your golden wings.Of anything less, why do you worry? You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul.” ~Rumi.
    Which one is she? ;)
    "I have always been a seeker and i still am, but i stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my soul." ~ Rumi
    I would get in touch with your Soul and be guided by it than by the plethora of fake teachers...

      That's what Amoda Maa always points to: the inner Truth that Rumi points to. If you see a problem, I suggest you listen deeper....or perhaps I just misunderstood you. :-)

      JamesThomas the quotes are self explanatory: are you in touch with your Soul or Oversoul and being guided by them... that is the real, true, authentic path.

      "The red/gray chips found in the WTC dust at four sites in New York City are consistent with a carbon steel coating with an epoxy resin that contains primarily iron oxide and kaolin clay pigments."
      "There is no evidence of individual elemental aluminum particles of any size in the red/gray chips, therefore the red layer of the red/gray chips is not thermite or nanothermite."
