"The mind needs to admit it is not the thing that is conscious." Enlightenment right there

This was beautifully expressed. You were fortunate because it happened during a moment of intense love for your wife and daughter. My experience, long ago, was somewhat perverted since I misinterpreted it. In fact, it scared the hell out of me. I was just meditating with my eyes open looking out at my garden. I sensed people moving around the edge of the garden because the sidewalk was raised and I could see the tops of their heads over the fence and hear distant talking. The thought struck me. "They aren't real. They aren't conscious. They're automatons. I'm the only one that's conscious, that's real. Whew! I immediately put it out of my mind thinking, "I can't be the one and only consciousness. That's madness!" Lightening did not strike twice as it did for you. But I still remember how different and beautiful my garden looked in those few seconds like it had an added dimension to it and I saw a flash of some reincarnational existence as well which I did not believe in at the time. Thank you for your account. When listening to a spiritual teacher, I always wait in anticipation for a description of their realization.

Tears Nabeel. Years back I experienced the first bang. The most profound moment outside of time. I could not ever have anticpated as such. Your beautiful, gentle and profound wisdom appear now just outside the gateless gate.. awaiting the 2nd bang. No one waits. Thank you ...beyond love.

Love this, Have just been "Godsmacked" myself, whilst contemplating reincarnation, and wondering what part of me remains. It hit me that no part of "me" remains, i felt an existential fear rise in me as i suddenly realized that i Don't exist. And on the other side of the fear was the truth of what i always have and always will be. So good to hear someone elses experience of the same.

This is one of the most articulate accounts of enlightenment I have ever heard, this blew me away, thank you so much for sharing. Your sharing provided important insights into what reality truly is just WOW! 🎉 🙏 ❤ 🙏

Thanks for sharing your experience of enlightment. I am practicing self inquire and all you talk about resonates to’ me, but i have not had yet such a direct and profound insight. Maybe i have to avoid waiting for it.

Thank you. Your videos are very powerful like Nisargadatta's teaching. I just sat in Silence afterwards. Very grateful.

There is no end to unfolding no before and after. Endless revelation, some experiences are very sudden and profound others subtle. It is hubris to think you have “arrived.” This is a beautiful story of a profound experience. “My enlightenment story” all over the internet are creating false expectations and inspiring endless seeking.

I found you possibly by the algorithm inside KZfaq but your videos along with a couple other have been very helpful in keeping me on the path of self inquiry and contemplation ! Thank you so much!!

Beautiful.

Thank Thee Beloved 🙏❤️

I am that ❣️🫶🏼

I am so deeply tuched… can’t explain in Words. Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏻❤️

Thank you!

Downloaded and listening again and again 🙏

Thank you so much for sharing! In my case, I got stuck for a long time after the first thunderbolt. Staring with the mind, with which I had unrecognised association, into the darkness of emptiness, which mind can’t penetrate. You described it so beautifully!

Thank you 🪔🌿🥰🙏

Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!

Yes, quite agree that this charecter is nothing but a collection of phenomena being played, just like water seen in the mirage. Sometimes the moon too appears during the day but so dimmed out by the Sun light that it is no more of interest, who cares. Thank you.

This is really helpful and interesting - although my mind can't follow into every level of this description. What I find irritating is the music in the background: The hammering crescendo of the piano doesn't sit well with me.
