The unbinding often happens naturally rather than through a meditation on it, and the attempt to unbind could be a binding in itself. Trying to get out is more in as self can't get out of self. So the unbinding could happen through just chilling out, eating, playing the guitar, doing a crossword, praising God or whatever, rather than focusing on awareness for its own sake, it can be helpful though. Things just run their course in the end and the effects of identification wear off eventually. Nicely presented anyway and you said things in a new way here..

YOU are IT, This is IT❣, Angelo, Thx for the ceaseless endurance of teachings and pointers to the ONE Heart!❣🙏

Something you said yesterday pairs beautifully with this talk about faith and trust, even practice. You said, “There can be movement of mind but it’s not grasped onto, it’s not touched by will, it’s not touched by aversion, it’s not touched by seeking or desire. And thus the thought substance remains totally inert and the aliveness or immersion or intimacy deepens infinitely but there’s nothing collecting that. Nothing collecting that experience of deepening. Nothing is accumulating. Nothing builds up here.” I had heard similar concepts, of course, but those words cracked open a new portal and impermanence was suddenly a living breathing everything. Quiet, and so peaceful…moving, changing…still. I knew it was right because of the deep peace. Thank you

😂😂😂I sat with ‘my straggle’ while listening this talk and all of the sudden I am “off the hook “ 😂

28:30 *don’t over look it because it’s boring. That’s exactly what the mind says too. “Nothing is happening here, it’s boring….blah blah blah. “ You’re such a blessing in my life Angelo. I’m a total mess most of the time but it’s nice to hear hopeful words and I can identify from experience with lots of your message. The mind has been UBER resistant to inquiry and practices the last 2 years. I’ve been doing all this for 10 years. Clearly I’m a slow learner. I’ve been horrible to be around the last 2 years. I can’t even stand to be around myself. Irritable AF, restless and angry are a 3 good descriptions. Haven’t felt joy or happiness in I don’t know how long. I’m amazed I’ve made it this long honestly. Anyway, as Gary Webber says, the “blah blah” goes on, and so it does.

37:40 and 37:55

Thanks for this. I hit the fear barrier today during self inquiry. It was so weird; like my sense of self started falling and falling into nothing. Usually i walk around feeling like Me is the feeling behind my eyes, i feel a shift into my stomach now. It happened so fast as well.

So much love for you brother! Thank you for your continuous pointing. Over the last two years I've listened to you for probably hundreds of hours including 7 straight days in NC last month. Been through the book in hard copy and audio a few times as well. I am now starting to feel the aggregate effect of all of this repetition. Things are really starting to clarify in a non-conceptual way. Thank you!

Excellent retreat! Santa was good with me! Thank you Angelo! I never dared to think that I could meditate for 40 minutes, and not only once! 🤣🤣🤣 Such a beautiful gift!💓

Dear Angelo, I am so grateful for the retreats and your videos. You really can break down all that in such simple words and pictures and tips with such depth and wisdom and humour. Deeply thankful here.

Will need to listen this on repeat to fully feel into all that pointing. So much of it felt exactly right.

Wow... Speechless (is there anything that can really be said?) This one resonated deeply.

The last part of the video was a big Ahhaaa here.. 😂😅 regarding struggling. Thank you so much for bringing light and insights here. 🙏😊💕Much love. ❤️🌷

Im glad you mentioned how the 8 fold path can get real confusing real fast. I struggled with it for years before i let it go completely and started having real insight.

Seeing with the heart is seeing through feeling, which it's also an amplifier and transmission station. A blurry vision at best, and always at the behest of the next fragile belief to trigger emotion. The pick of the toolbox when hardened and honed, but what when it dulls and found all alone? Just trust the science. ;)

At times I seriously think I'm loosing it, other times I'm so scared or when fear fails it drives me to almost rage. Somehow it's seems to have slipped into effecting reality as well, such as people or my dog even will interrupt me. Usually at critical times when I'm feeling as if I'm about to break through. I had no idea my ego would be so vicious or so eerily real. So thankful I had found you among much other information to let me know I'm not actually just completely insane. This is absolutely the most intense event I've ever experienced. It's so odd to me though, it's as if I can notice the bread crumbs way back my entire life. Dreams I had as a boy even. I suppose information really does reveal itself to us in the correct order and timing when it's needed. I had a huge interest in hermeticism and have some bible background from my childhood. But none of it really mattered to much to me until recently. The past week has been extremely intense, so much that I can't really function outside of home. Luckily I'm in the perfect position currently to have this war with myself. All the conditions that lead me to this point... I hope I can't fail, would be devastating. I've meditated on and off since my 20s, but I finally got it watching you. So thanks so much man, I really just wanted to say that. You deserve so much more and I hope people take the time to let you know, as I'm sure every one here does appreciate you and others like yourself. I know sometimes I keep playing on Fullscreen and don't get to the thumbs up myself. But again thank you sincerely, I hope to come back alive and tell you I survived, if not at least make it through lol, no stopping now though. P.s. it's not so bad, hope I didn't scare any one I mean it's fearful but not persistent and may be heavier on me for my demons were many it something. Thanks

Thanks for sharing wisdom, wishing love, grace and courage for all to be open to look feel and be only here.☮♥🙏

I can’t believe I watched this entire video but it was so worth it 😊 Thank you! ❤ I don’t even want to explore tho. I feel So done.

it's interesting to observe my concept of "conflicting information" begin to fall apart. thoughts about what's "true" versus "untrue" haven't exactly disappeared, it's more like they've begun to merge into one another. now, whenever I discuss a topic with a friend, I feel compelled to qualify my thoughts on it with, "from my current perspective..." because my perspective is moving all over the place!

In one of his short stories, german writer Thomas Mann has a rich guy say "the secret to enjoying your wealth lies in never getting used to it". Even though I read that years before spirituality showed up on my radar, I thought that it was an incredibly profound statement and it stuck with me ever since.

This is so encouraging. Thank you!

Direct. Grateful!

I used to meditate for 30 minutes every morning. I stopped for a bit because life. Now I use inquiry as often as I can in the present moment. Things are getting really interesting!

The title takes me back to the famous dialogue between disciple and master that I've seen somewhere on YT (rough citation): The disciple asked: Can I see your feet, Guruji-ji? Master responded: It's not necessary. See it with your heart.

Yes....

Pure love, this one. Palpable. Thank you, dear Angelo. 🥀✨

So beautiful Angelo

Thank you ❤

Yes 👏🏼 Yes 👏🏼 Yes to all of this

Thanks Angelo ❤

Just thanks from the heart for everything!

I love this, thank you

nice explanation of the phrase "Familiarity breeds contempt" its a new angle on the dream, on the expectation, on the mental loops. consciousness when we can move into it consciously brings most of this to a space that balances the mind/body with clear consciousness. IMHO. thanks for this expression peace

Thank you for making this available. It helped me 😅

WOW... Insane beauty.

Ooofff beautiful 🥰 Happy new year Angelo!

❤

🙏🙏🙏

Thank you

Tonys talk was released on xmas iirc. I bring this up bc you have no idea how comforting it is to know that you as well have trouble with linear time(?) 😅❤❤

❤🎉

“Why deviate?” Well, when you put it that way…..😊❤ Off the hook is nice, but it sometimes feels like a lot of effort-until it doesn’t. It’s interesting how something can become so obvious, after a long struggle. Thank you.

Thank you for this video Angelo. I hear you use the word "round" in reference to retreats... What is a round in this context?

Is it possible to stop your own awakening? I feel like I’m going to sabotage it

Is this speech for yourself or yo help someone here? No seriously 😅
