"Enlightenment is not an experience. It is not something that happens to you. It is not something to be found. It is simply the recognition of your being. Of the nature of your being". Simply beautiful.

1 word. Gratitude. If you have food and water and shelter everyday and dont have to stress about survival, congratulations you can be happy.

The clarity descends as we understand that awareness/consciousness is not 'me' - rather that 'me' is a something in awareness/consciousness. If the awareness is perturbed by what it is aware of then it is a 'me'. Only 'me's are perturbed. 10 years ago I would say to anyone who cared to listen that 'I am awareness/consciousness ' - it was something I had read in a book or heard a teacher say to me. It is the realisation that 'me' is something in awareness that changed everything. Awareness/consciousness is not perturbed by feelings- only a 'me' is. Addiction to the spiritual path is a result of the 'me' being perturbed by feelings and sensations and wanting them to not be - 'me' wants to be distracted from them. The 'me' wants to be free of feelings which 'me' says are unpleasant. It is the 'me' that says 'when I am enlightened I will be free' Awareness is not perturbed by the presence of 'me' - it doesn't mind anything it is aware of.

Once you recognize your true self you will recognize your power as well. The whole nervous system will flip, body will go through changes you will experience everything the body goes through, the experience will be entirely your own.❤️

Im starting to be addicted to these talks. Rupert is one of the most patient teachers I've had the pleasure of watching. He is the light. I am thankful that we have real spiritual masters leading us directly to spirit.

Spiritual Enlightenment is when you realize you are not the body and mind you are Eternal Spirit ....and always have been. That's Enlightenment !😮

I can definitely see Rupert empathizing.. knowing that he himself spent such a long time searching.

Great!! According to Rupert enlightment is the end of any kind of expectation and the acceptance of the present moment as it is. We hear that 1000 times but never make the klick

This is again a great video! Rupert's conversation was really powerful. Finally the lady needs to understand that even the urge to find something more, the feeling that something is missing is her live is also the mind. She needs to understand that the feeling is not reliable and she is not feeling it from the position of herself.

Remove thoughts, remove your body, remove every experience, past present future, remove your name, remove your job, remove everything, what do you find - enlightenment! Peel every layer. You are enlightened already. Mind is a monkey mind, don't attach yourself to it, you are separate , you are pure awareness. It's a constant practice for me, constant reminder

Enlightment is not just the recognition of our true nature as happiness, it is the living of this experience , as happiness, contentment every moment ,in the present moment. Knowing it theoretically is easy but worthless. Practicing and living it is difficult. It is this eternal happiness that the seeker is seeking. A living Guru fulfils this desire of Stabilization in Realization - Sirshree.

Sending love and support to anyone having an especially difficult day. Reach out to friends and other support when you can. Keep letting go. You got this!

I’m feeling everything she is saying

A hint is that if what you seek requires time, it is not the path. An experience implies time. Self is timeless. It requires no time to realize self. 🙏♥️

Enlightenment is the absence of "you".

I came here to hear Mooji speak but found profound respect for Rupert as well ❤️

I like Rupertji, & Mooji!!. To the first questioner. Do not TRY too hard. ‘It’ is very subtle, it is not known (or perceived) by the mind (as in a thought). But is felt by the ‘heart’. ‘It’ is a feeling, like an inner smile or ‘love.’ It is also what remains when ‘you’ are just being (only the feeling of ‘I am’ (period), and not doing anything else (including thinking anything!). It has been described as, “the space between the thoughts.” If you are relaxed, and breathing slowly, sometimes there is a glimpse of this feeling right where your exhalation ends, and before your inhalation begins..Notice this point, perhaps pause a moment and feel.. Namaste 🙏

Consciousness is awareness. 🧘‍♂️ Rupert brought me here, Mooji set this body-mind free 🙏

So much resonance with what Rupert is saying 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Actually, for me, it has made my life better. Awareness of my essence, getting out of my head, meditating daily; life is quite blissful, actually, but being human is also about learning lessons so it’s not a perfectly smooth ride even with the recognition/awareness. But for me, the duration of suffering is lessened because I now know that most of that suffering comes from the false narratives of my past conditioning. And I have far fewer expectations, though I still have “intentions” and now I just let them go, and if they are meant to come to me, I’m grateful. Since recognizing what’s spoken here today, strangely, my life is perfectly OK as it is and my gratitude for my peace of mind is bringing me a lot of those things I used to be driven to have or achieve. And he’s right: once you’ve found that peace and happiness you don’t need to be on a “path.” You just ARE.

The woman is so funny and honest, love it!! 😂.. She literally crafted in words the frustration many of us feel. Either let me have it God or take the desire away, that's a fair deal. How can Rupert not get this? Surely you have felt this way too once upon a time.

The woman’s plea for release was beautiful to listen too. I felt like she’d already got it but preferred to be a seeker; possibly for the thrill of finding/feeling what was already implicit in her experiences. Craving for enlightenment seems to be the complementary pair of letting go of craving for enlightenment. Cultivating awareness of and appreciation for this profoundly dynamic (ever-unfolding and uncontainable) interdependence of opposites has helped “me” discover and rediscover the mutual reinforcing qualities of whole-ness and individual-ness. I love how Rupert points the way to wholeness/oneness (enlightenment) through a process of deeply exploring who “I am”.

This is my quest!! To find myself with in myself. I think it’s a feeling of pure love ❤️

Am grateful to Prem Rawat who has helped me discover inner peace and happiness in the simplest way through his gift of knowledge of the self. He has been teaching the same subject since he was a child.The difference between Prem and other teachers of the same subject is that Prem is easily reachable across the planet to share his precious gift.

The "I" is nothing other than the "Eternal Now". One and the same.

Loved this so clear that Infinite Conscienceness Is Our True Nature. Thank You 🙏

rupert is a gift for humanity

If you know the technique of silencing your mind the awareness our True Self dawns. IT shines in our awareness as Awareness / Pure Consciousness. Be Aware of Being Aware. That is called Self Realisation. But it took me 5 years of intense spiritual pursuit to get that shift in my Consciousness. I am That.

Two favorite teachers. ❤ ❤

"If you have seen me you have seen the Father."

Just wonderful. Thank you

It's like she's speaking for me. So True. Thank you and God Bless Everyone 🙏

Wow enllightenment is the recognition of the nature of our being, perfect

Each is a beautiful expression of The Divine. Grateful to both Rupert and Mooji for appearing and shining the Light of Being through them 🙏🏻✨✨✨🙏🏻❤️❤️

"No one comes to the Father except through me", "I AM the way, the TRUTH, and the Life". No one comes to the father except through a revelation of truth. Jesus was a perfect representation of how man really (truthfully) looks, One with God (John 10:30) and One with all men. This is Love, no barriers, no borders, no me and you, us and them. "Love your neighbour as yourself" because he/she is yourself. This is what repentance really means (metanoia in Greek) a change of mind, changing it from a belief that we are separate from God to one where we are in God and thus each other. "He who loses himself (worldly ego) will find himself, the pure world/object-less eternal being, the "I am". "The truth will set you free" (John 8:32). Love you guys.

Thank you so very much for sending this... 🙏💗

Clarity and joy 🥰

I found both absolutely wonderful. Each of them shining throught their unique way to express the Self. Mooji, I found, gives here, a great explanation of this passage of the Bible, gives the key to understanding it.

Thank you Rupert and Mooji for Direct Truthful Teachings. Eureka!😊💜🌟

I know where she’s standing and I do understand what Rupert is saying clearly, but in my own opinion I understand that even for beings like him is not easy to explain in words what it’s inexplicable. He ( as a being ) has to visit the mind to translate and find the closest words to explain in a way we can understand, but still we get confused bcoz it’s indeed for everyone of us an individual experience so we can truly feel it as it was for him, buddha, mooji, Osho, sadhguru etc, you name it. The stories have been told by them! Whatever it was, wasn’t that an experience? We can agree or disagree about this but for everyone of them ( these called enlightened beings , another created word ) they all have described their transitions from their personhood to presence =awakening as a kind of experience, a feeling, a sensation after many years of meditating or seeking in this spiritual path. Some of them have described it like hearing a sound, feeling a vibe, something else, etc. All the definitions, these comments ( including mine ) are coming from our intellect = ego and not from our own experience = intelligence ( for most of us) we are talking from our personality. You can say ok let’s go today sit down and recognize this space inside my body that has always being there and from where everything lives and I react. That’s beautiful and we are searching for it, but is it honestly in our 365 days year experience or it was just for a moment? Why it doesn’t stay? We are all feeling good today and tomorrow we get angry to our neighbor bcoz he/she scratched our car, or we can’t deal with that guy’s ‘opinion who is from a different culture and has an accent. Or you’re angry w/ your boss bcoz he fired you. Don’t we stay in that pain of thoughts blaming everyone, and in that memory for 24h a week or longer? So where this momentary “recognition” went? The day our true experience happens we can say now our recognition is here ( hopefully in this lifetime ) In fact they said we won’t find the words or it will be very difficult to describe it.Otherwise, we are just quoting and saying what we have heard, and read from books, videos gurus, etc. I do know most of us can recognize, observe and see the differences between our personality acting in this society and that beautiful presence, silence, and space from which we see everything as ourselves. We can say I’m neither this body nor the mind and we can observe the observer etc, but all these definitions from where we are trying to find an answer are still coming from our understanding = intellect and not from our true universal intelligence from which all creatures are part of it. The true experience that stays forever in us and we should respond always from. Hence the highs and lows and this duality in our life. This is why he’s sitting in front of us I’m not viceversa. 🙏🏼☺️ The recognition of my being it’s not something I can find by the intellect. Lastly The only thing I recognize in this rehearsal of life is that I know NOTHING and that all my words and understandings are coming from my ego and ignorance. I’m just like a parrot repeating what I have learned. However, I do recognize and I’m grateful for the beauty of talking about a subject that can help all of us to grow up more in this lifetime. 🙏🏼 Id like to say let’s seat down and meditate more to see if one day we can talk from our true experience like he does! These kind of videos help a lot but are also a distraction for our individual and unique path!! Blessings Love & peace to all

Thanks for sharing this with us ❤️❤️❤️

Great textual citation by Mooji. Very Vedantic!

Muchísimas gracias!!!!

"You are what you want." What else is there? Perfect.

Powerful conversation. Thank you 🙏

Thank you. Just thank you.

This was extremely helpful. Thanks.

They way she states the question speaks to her obsessional qualities and probably correlates with grasping. She strikes me as well educated in both enlightenment as well as how to pause between answering the rhetorical questions. She also has some wonderful insights in the first part of her sharing and showed some enlightened qualities.

Such an important question for most spiritual seekers. Watch this! 😍

My own experience with 'Enlightenment' was more in the form of an invitation to Ascend. So I would say from my own experience Enlightenment was more than the recognition of one's sense of self. Maybe that is what many people are searching for: The truest unshakable sense of awareness that they are accurately orientated on the Path.

To get rid of the wanting to achieve something, just let go of the wanting. Realize that who you really are was never "born" nor will ever "die." In that realization is the fulfillment of all wants. And you can still have wants without the distraction of any fear of never getting what you want.

I saw myself selling my 2400 sq ft home on 4 acres and moving into a motor home. I was happy with all the things I had accumulated in the home, and I had to give most of them up to live in the motorhome. The home became a place of seclusion, my own prison. So now I live in a 33 foot motorhome that is beautiful inside and out. And it has become a new place of seclusion, another prison of my own choosing. And for now, I am content with this new kind of freedom.

All that we seek is ultimately happiness or peace. It does not come to us through activity, objects or relationships. Happiness is who we are. Our essential nature is complete, content, eternal, and cannot be tarnished by experience. We cannot find it out there, because it is our essential nature. Recognizing that truth for all of us, is all that enlightenment comes down to.

The way that can be told is not the way. -Lao Tzu. It’s so hard to put these things into words. At some point you have to quit seeking outside yourself and quiet the mind and let yourself BE.

I'm very grateful to them both. 💛

HOW can the highest Hz, essence of all, co-creator of all, of and as which YOU are, be described/experienced as "just being". It never feels that way in me. Joyously Glorious, energy resonating energy, radiant! Start THERE!

yes! one must feel it. feel it. feel the vibration.

This really sunk in I'm so grateful

What you are looking for is within you.You are the source of your happiness and you are the source of your sadness.The ultimate so called spiritual experience is the simple coming and going of this breath,from nowhere comes this power which brings the gift of life and without which we with all our hopes and dreams cannot exist.Recognise the magic that dwells in the hearts of all human beings and bathe not in questions but in love and understanding.💚

✨be here now do no harm help others be still close eyes listen to your breathing✨

Listening to you is always fulfilling, Master. 💖🙏

In addition to this explanation Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is within you. That cuts out going through an additional person outside of yourself. Interpreting where/what someone is speaking from is paramount.

DhanyabadDhanyabadDhanyabad. Thanks. Gratitude. Thanks

This is absolutely so good! Thank you for this wonderful video......❤

Thank You Jai

beautiful 💜

Realizing mind essence, aka "the self" , ones true nature, "Buddha nature" shiva consciousness " beingness" "rigpa" "Dharmakaya" etc is just the beginning. Then adjusting to it above all ,stabilizing in it ,realising it's always there when it doesn't FEEL like it or when karma is accumulated etc is the next part from there. Until the realisation that phenomenon are consciousness also....then sahaja or completeness. Not a witness to phenomenon in separation but realising all is consciousness.

Great video! So simple and obvious that we don't see it. There is nothing to know or understand. All that is required is to notice what is here.. Still presence. The continuous sense of being that is always here our whole life. Constant, whatever happens in life.

Beautiful explanation!

I think that this is exactly the main teaching of Buddha. Suffering is caused by thinking that impermanent objects will bring us happiness.

Just Greatful ... ❤

Yes, I am. Amen

Seeing the I without adornment. Sifting out the addition of identity. Dropping the story of Me. Abandoning the belief of separation.

True, peace comes from a spiritual awareness. The third person (holy spirit) holds a marriage together and provides joy, peace and Love.

Me too and Rupert is so clear in he answers😘😘😘

Yay I'm enlightened

Thank you🙏🙏🙏

Enlightenment: the veil is removed.-Rupert

it s not the happiness i seek but the absense of suffering...i am myself but the layers of suffering and confusion make it impossible to be with myself and feel compleet.

This is such a great question!

Thank you.

"And Yashua said,'Each one of You are Masters...""

I feel too that through meditation and the recognition of our being we put a space between a thought or experience and the reaction or non reaction taken. Going back to the breathe over and over. It’s also difficult for me to recognize my true being and stay in that state of mind because I am constantly bombarded with the people and experiences in my life. I feel once that recognition takes place I’ll lose all that I love and care about because of my own transformation

Insightful explanations from both individuals.

That first woman asks a great question

I AM ! The Direct Path is I AM...

Any question? Yes! "Me, myself, and I..."

It IS the acceptance. imo, the ego blocks us from acceptance. Let it Be,it just IS.

Happiness is born of Contentment. Not the other way round x

Awareness of the awareness

"Before Abraham was born, I am." What more need be said, really? Wonderful share, my friend! 🌷✿★⁀˚⋆.‿☼°ღ˚°¨ ༻❃ Big Like! 🌷

The path to enlightenment is a challenging non-linear path. You'll feel much pain along the way. This is impermanent and will not last forever. After the dark night of the soul always comes the dawn light of the awakening. If you choose to take this path, there is no turning back. Keep going fellow travellers, we are all on our own journey back to our true selves and oneness with everything!

There is what we are constantly as peaceful fulfilled consciousness, and then there is the many experiences, the ultimate thing(s) which you do not explore for spirituality but because why the heck not, nothing you experience will bring you to the place where you already stand, but experiences are mysteriously beautiful and that is all they are. I think the natural evolution from this "seeking of enlightenment" is just pure curiosity and creativity for no self-fulfilling reason, just because that is what intellects which are the human organism do.

She wants understanding. "When two become one, one becomes all." The two are wisdom and knowledge; together, they create power.

Legendary Beings

17:20 - What a great down to earth explanation. One couldn't put it more bullseye than this. . . . . . But, what if you constantly physically hurt because of a disease? How can one find enlightenment when your whole body is in constant pain ?

She spoke for me

No one comes to the father except through me!!! Here the me is the understanding of who me/i is !!! Me refers to ourselves and knowing who we are " Who am I" When Jesus says me he is referring to our self and not to the person Jesus!!!!

Wow!
