Wonderful summary from a practical perspective! Growing up Catholic but studying/practicing Buddhist philosophical tenets for over 10 years, this is perhaps the best, succinct, 15 min presentation that brings it all home!!! A helpful reminder as a compassionate physician in a very broken US medical system, the baseline misery that tends to frequently arise, my experience day-to- day can be instantly dissipated with the approach you describe. MUCH APPRECIATION for taking a very difficult concept and sharing a more user friendly way of approaching life!!! You are helping many of us healers in a very profound way!! Blessing to you and your family!✌🏼♥️

I love your energy and the language down to earth. Thank you so much for your sincerity, vulnerability and honesty. Rejecting emotions and all sensations generally talking is like rejecting who we are for an idea about ourselves which means suffering. When new interviews with Dr. Angelo? I enjoyed them so much. Thank you ! ❤

As a child I would get this feeling, an un-real feeling, and my mind would be “I’m me, and no body else”, separation. It as if I could experience the illusion of being just a self, and my mind had to justify this belief in separation. I was terrified of this feeling. However, as I got older, twenty’s, I got into meditation, shrooms, and solo backpacking. I decided to face this terrible feeling. I was alone, no drugs, only darkness, facing the fear, and I came to realize that this was only a thought, that’s it. This was my enlightenment. I’m not all ok, but I’m much better off being aware that my experiences are only thoughts. I have come to realize that what is, is. That things are as they should be, that everything is connected. Do I feel this all the time, oh hell no. But when the pain and suffering of being human comes back, I have to laugh at myself, it’s only a thought.

I don’t know if you will remember me…you recorded a message for my mom who has been battling Lymphoma when you were in Kenai for the CPH event. I just wanted to let you know that she is in REMISSION!!! And thank you again for being so kind to send her that message!!! You made her day/week/month/year more than you could ever know!

Loving both YOUR and MY transformations Dogg! As physicians (I am a preventative cardiologist) it is so important to connect with the wisdom that you’re speaking of BEFORE we approach other patients who come to us for healing. Great work man. Will put this on repeat!

I cannot thank you enough for sharing this! I was feeling exactly this just before your video popped up on my Facebook feed 15 minutes ago! Incredibly helpful and profound…and perfect…abundant gratitude Dr Z 👏♥️🙏!

Thank you, Z! Love what you're doing 🙏 keep it up!!! 🤩

What an absolute gem of a video. Bookmarked for daily use.

I feel like the restlessness and misery you describe is the discomfort of not being a fully self-actualized being. It is the gap between what we could be, what we should be, and what we actually are at present. There is always this discomfort at feeling incomplete and inadequate. And perhaps that discomfort is good because it motivates us to strive towards perfecting our being, which I think advances the slow human trudge towards improving our societies and collective consciousness.

When I tell you it's human's such as yourself ( my brain just came into view of you today and is so far very found of you 🤣) that bring the most comfort. I particularly don't want to live in a fantasy filled world and so connecting with 'real' people like yourself, brings so much comfort.

At the same time (replying to your title), the fact and statistics that you are alive, and even a human rather than anything else at this point in time is astonishing . In a sense winning the lottery

Absolutely beautifully articulated, Zubin! 😍🥰🙏 Thank you!!

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I am extremely disconnected from my emotions other than annoyance and deep down rage sometimes. I’m perfectly fine sitting alone, and just being.

What a great commentary. This is something that I have learned to live with and that is my thoughts.

Thank you 🙏

I appreciate you very much💜

Life isn't suffering 24/7. There are wonderful satisfying moments, companionship, laughter, art, sunrises, music, children, nature, cookies, traveling, sex, the stars, rain and for British people there is black tea with a splash of milk. There is an entire universe filled with stuff to experience. Ofc there is unbelievable pain, suffering, death and evil deeds, but suffering isn't the whole story of life.

Thank you 🙏🏽

Resistance was futile - I could not leave this so briefly without blabbing on a bit. Recently I chanced upon a bio-pic of the fellow who wrote the book ''The Incredible Lightness Of Being' , an interesting and busy man. The film was beautifully shocking. Today contained that novel feeling/knowledge ot an old program being hilariously enjoyed. It shows that some of these old programs and compulsions have a surprising amount of wisdom to offer in hilarious ways. Sadly, condemning it to more description is vain. But, I love how you kinda said some'n similar, and said it fabulously. Your presence and work are amazing and so, so needed in our crazy world.💐

Had one of my first (temporary) awakenings, in Alaska, a bit over 50 years ago on an isolated mountain. Laughing remembering; I was living in British Columbia and just 15 (looked older) was going to run away to Vancouver but missed the plane so I took next one out which was going to the Yukon territories. Haven't thought about that dream adventure for years...even though it wasn't real it sure seemed exciting and joyous beyond belief. Especially coming from a life of so much dysfunction and pain. It was a gift though as the pain and suffering was what propelled this being to seeking freedom. Blessings to you and your family. ❤ PS....been curious about your wife's process since her awakening when Suzanne visited.🎉

This was helpful. Just stay with the uncomfortable present moment. This podcast is full of good reminders of what I needed to remember. Only way out is through. Its ok to sit with it all, let it all just be without judgements.

I love your smile, well your whole face, makes me happy when you look happy 😊

Thank you

Really really BRAVE, accountability to your actions… deeds … words … is what allows peace.

fascinating insight

I felt this. I feel like I've been "coping" all my life. I guess I have! Hm. Thanks. Have a great week.

I make people look at me as if I am from Mars when I tell them, "I am not my body. I am not my brain." If I were either of these, why would I argue with these two things? Yes, also, almost 20 years ago, I was busy working on developing a teaching program for a 5-day intensive training when I asked myself, "What time is it?" Immediately, I heard this little voice tell me "Now!" I looked where the voice was coming, and there sat Wendy, a grinning little teddy bear. Without thinking, I said, "Okay, Wendy, where are we?" The voice again spoke: "Here." That is the only major truth. It is always now and we are always here.

ZDogg, thank you!! Deep breath... smiling, letting it all go. All our curves and all our edges, all our perfect imperfections.

Yes. You described it well.

ZDogg Great job on this one. I've been following you and Angelo for sometime on this topic. I notice your evolution with awakening too. You are much more articulate and pointed when you discuss this compared to earlier videos. You hit upon a great aspect that escapes most people.. That is "the illusion that WE are doing all this." It's hard for people to comprehend that "You, me, or we" or the false identity are not doing anything. You are not the cause. Consciousness is happening by itself and "the you" that you think is doing, doesn't exist anywhere except as a thought. Very hard for people to accept that. Thanks.

watch the person in desperate need, you, with grace and nurturance. become and grow the time as the watcher

Thanks!

What a great concept after watching the Barbie Movie! Z-Dogg meets the Real World! Zenough

Everything is a double-bind!

Good stuff.

Maybe there is still hope for humanity after all, maybe... ✨️

Do you think then that there aren't ghosts and spirits, because the now gets wrinkled and we're just seeing a previous energy cross over into our version of Now?

To be a “human,” is to be a “humane individual!”

Wow this… loved it Dr. Z! Thanks ! ❤

Nailed it, been feeling exactly like this...yes I'm feeling a strong inclination to become an EMT or join the Red Cross or something.

Z- please talk about how OBGYNs are being forced to go to Texas and take boards. And how they don’t want to go.

Ah... separation through subjectification. Funny thing just happened. I'm sitting here reading Awake, chapter 11 - Mind Identification. I took a break because I can't read for very long without getting sleepy. I jump on Facebook and see you at the front of my stories. I click on the KZfaq link and I'm watching this video. You talking about the exact thing I was just reading!! Please tell me what in the fuck is the meaning of what just happened! 😂🤯 I think this is a sign!!!

My god I can relate 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Only the strong are tested... tsimahian alaskan native tribal still here

💫💫💫

👍🥰

Tribal life is a bit different

I’m curious… where does creative intelligence & critical thinking fit into this?
