In this very inspiring 14 minute audio, Gangaji explains that the human desire for understanding is powerful. We naturally want to understand where we fit in or how best to fix a problem. Understanding satisfies particular needs in our daily life, but on the spiritual path, is understanding enough? Gangaji addresses the crucial difference between realization and understanding that transforms our life experience.
A woman who suffers from chronic pain, and who is now caring for her father who is dying of cancer, says she wants to escape from the pain that surrounds her. Rupert reminds her that there is actual physical pain and there is psychological suffering and what the difference is between the two.
In this cute four minute animation we find Frick and Frack discussing the fact that we can still experience moods, anxiety, fear and stress after realization. The greatest advantage to these cartoons is that it allows us to focus more on the MESSAGE, rather than the credibility or character of the messenger. This is Part 5 of this discussion of our true nature between Frick and Frack. Here are the links to the other parts of this series: Part 1 – The Nature of Reality Part 2 – Individuality & Conditioning Part 3 – Personality After Realization Part 4 –

This post is bit longer than usual but for fans of Jac O’Keeffe I thought it was important to include the whole interview from 2021 with Susan Hill. Let’s listen as Jac shares some eternal wisdom…
In this revealing 4 minute video, a woman asks why consciousness would want to localise as the world? Why does it need to manifest? These are very common questions with very simple answers. Let’s listen to Rupert’s response…
In this short 5 minute video, Rupert speaks about a common misconception that we hear about over and over again. We are told by many teachers that we need to discipline our attention so it does not slip into thoughts, feelings or psychological thinking that creates the unpleasantness we are trying to avoid. Rupert explains here that when we do this we are creating a conflict within ourselves which actually makes things worse. See what Rupert has to say…
Here is a wonderful 16 minute guided meditation from Mooji called “You Are Silence Itself”. Just sit back, relax and enjoy!
In this beautiful 18 minute talk Mooji shares the simple and fruitful exercise of paying attention to being-ness, and that even one minute of sitting with this is enough. This powerful explanation is not to be missed!
Our spiritual discovery of the absolute truth of one’s being can be turned into a hiding place, where we ignore harsh realities and deny the cruelest aspects of our shared humanity. Ignorance is not “bliss.” Rather, it is the root of all suffering. In this powerful monologue delivered in 1999, Gangaji shares that the end of ignorance and our willingness to be all is the “gold of self-realization.”
This 20 minute guided meditation from Mooji will help guide your attention back to your true self. Let’s just sit back, relax and listen as Mooji provides the golden message of truth and freedom…
In this beautiful 10 minute video, Gangaji offers the opportunity to discover the truth of your being in the simplest and most immediate way…just by inquiring into what is here? She leads a young woman from the realm of conceptualization to the reality of simply being here, as hereness itself, never separate from anything that appears. Let’s join in…
In this revealing 12 minute video, Rupert responds to a questioner who is a bit confused about offending others and forgiveness within a non-dual understanding. Let’s get started… (In his examples John Smith is having a dream about being King Lear during sleep)
One of my favourite meditations to do are Mooji’s meditations. He was a guest on my “Under The Skin” podcast this week and here are some of the lessons I learned from him…
In this video Mooji explains that true “I” is NOT personal. Activities are taking place spontaneously but the “Self” remains untouched. The “Self” is not involved. The mind is not needed for the activities of life to take place, only for practical purposes. If you don’t believe it, then put it to the test and see what happens.
Is your inner critic running your life? In this episode of Being Yourself, Gangaji demonstrates how to confront the inner-critic without judgment, and finally end the war between ego and superego.
In this 10 minute video, Rupert takes us on the journey of creation of mind and matter. In the process he also explains how infinite, unlimited awareness can take on the shape of limited awareness and how this creates the illusion of separateness.
In this 5 minute video from Adyashati, he explains that insightful intelligence is not from the thinking mind. The mind only has the ability to review concepts from the past and make projections of possible scenarios for the future, but true “Ah Ha” insightful ideas, thoughts or concepts come from the one intelligence that makes the entire universe possible. See how Adyashanti explains it…
What don’t we want to change? What are we not willing to lose? What are we hiding from? In this very interesting short 12 minute video, Gangaji examines how our superstitious minds are afraid to expose our deepest fears about what we might lose if we really tell the truth.
Mooji explains that we should not let fear guide our decisions. Once you have done everything you can do and it seems like a decision needs to be made and you have no idea what to do, the advice that Mooji offers is to “keep quiet, don’t force a decision”. When the right time comes you will “recognize” what needs to be done. The right decision comes as a RECOGNITION.
In this brilliant seven minute Mooji moment filmed on one of his walks, Mooji explains why Satsang is not really the place to address personal issues, but rather to discover the “Truth” that can relieve us from the effect of any so called personal problems or issues generated by the mind. Let’s listen…
In this lovely 11 minute video, Gangaji speaks of the ordinary desires that shape our daily lives, and the one extraordinary desire for freedom, or union with God, that arises in certain lifetimes. She is here in your life to honor that true desire and point you home to yourself. Let’s listen…
In this awesome 10 minute video, Adyashanti explains that as you relinquish the mind’s desire to constantly be doing or understanding something, you can step out of the egoic mind state and into all-inclusive awareness.
In this extremely short two and a half minute video, Rupert explains how Awareness (what we are) NEVER flows through time and space. Although this message is very short, it contains the highest level of realization and should be contemplated over and over as the mind goes on its fantasies of independent existence.
In this eight minute spontaneous moment from 2009, Mooji explains that we (our minds) often create unnecessary conditions and restrictions on where or when we can be the “Self ” by anticipating our experience and creating barriers to living our Truth. The quality of this recording is poor, but the intensity of the talk makes up for it.
Mooji explains that the value of being in the presence of a master is for guidance and to have someone that can tell you when you are wandering off track. He also explains that it is important to know the difference between a teacher and a master.
This wisdom filled eight minute video focuses on Eckhart Tolle’s teachings on acceptance and surrender, and how you can utilize this wisdom to transform your life and minimize psychological pain and suffering. Let’s get started…
In this great little 5 minute video, Jac O’Keeffe explains that living through a pandemic this day and age gives us an amazing opportunity to come together and work together towards the same goal and also gives us a wonderful opportunity to remain in presence much more of the time. Let’s listen…
In this beautiful 11 minute video, we find Mooji talking about the importance of watching the mind. Only by becoming more and more aware of the games of the mind can we learn to transcend it. Let’s watch this awesome video…
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, a sage of the highest order, a tremendously gifted teacher who spoke directly from Absolute “pure Awareness, unborn Reality,” and thus from real spiritual authority. This is Part 2 of a five part split from rare video that was recorded circa 1979 of a Satsang in the apartment of Nisargadatta Maharaj in Mumbai where he would invite strangers into his home and discuss enlightenment with them. This video was not known to exist until January 2007 when Mulappartan, one of the original translators of Nisargadatta Maharaj released an old VHS tape containing this historical Satsang. For Part
