There is no real need to look at anything in a dream as real. It's similar to a religious dogma to think so. .. "The longer you keep it buried" is really the more liberated you shall feel when you release the bondage of thinking anything can be buried by anyone in reality. For example, I can look at someone and see (from the universal consciousness inside) the bondage they carry. They do not need to say a word usually.

Wow, hope you get better

@@frv6610 I'm fine actually, the crying isn't suffering it's actually beautiful most of the time

I just wanted to comment that :D The crying isn't suffering but in a sense the purging of old suffering.@@tom_see

Nice. Yes. 🙏🏼🫥🌻

I don't know what you mean by that but I know exactly what you mean by that.

I don't know if I don't know but I know if I don't know

Kinda like; I don't know what to do, but I know exactly what I need to do! 😂

Maybe learn to avoid carrying wrong weight

Yes the best mantra it is as it is ❤

"It is what it is" is, logically speaking, the same as saying "1=1," it is LOGICALLY SOUND.

the real saying is "is is what is is" there is little can be called just in a world where disease is pandemic. Your wife cannot die in Reality, she is her full Consciousness elsewhere in different form now, but it resembles that of the homo-sapien human form in a more indestructible Awakened state of Consciousness or Divine Awareness. I've come to see that to believe there is an "it" or object outside Self is the cause of disease, but the disease still persists until I am one with Self and there is no question by any other that I am one with Self.... Self is God. God is everywhere.

I like that. Letting go of letting go.

Then you begin to try to let go of letting go, so you start saying letting go of letting go of letting go?

After being exposed to non-duality following a traumatic experience, this is what it felt like. Just another kick to the stomach forcing me to let go of more of my will, and anguishing that I felt compelled to pour my life down the drain, in my early 20s… It would have been a lot easier if my teachers weren’t so subtly dogmatic when it came to this subject. Oh God it still hurts, but at least some part of me feels at peace now that I’m allowed to suffer with the me and the desires I’m sitting with.

trying to get home to the child that only knew what aliveness was? we died already cos we been told to learn..

Thanks so much John ♡ Much appreciated

@@suzanne-chang I will be supporting you more often Suzanne

We can claim experience is real but the “I” that claims the experience is unreal. It is the notional “I” that claims joy and sorrow are happening to “me” that is false. The principle of impermanence points this out, as does the principle of wholeness or inter-being-the other great principle of life.

@@Hermit-lo7bw maybe.But it seems to me that anyone could say this or that is or isn't reality.Like does the falling tree in a deserted forest make a noise and whatever.But I,m of the opinion that however one looks at it wont make any difference to the subjective experience enjoyed or suffered✌️

@@randybackgammon890 The quality and intensity of the experience change significantly. It is one thing to experience suffering when heavily identified with the body and quite another when you see it for what it is. Consider a scenario where a friend walks up to you on the street and tells you about how they witnessed a car being stolen. You patiently listen to the story but remain unmoved by it. Not a big deal, right? Then your friend tells you the car being stolen was yours. Would your reaction to the story be the same? Probably not. The real you is obviously the you that has never left. If it has, it can't be you, right? Its presence has been there your entire life. Your body has changed as has your mind. That which has witnessed countless changes is what you are. The person you think you are may be troubled by experience but that which knows the person and its problems is like the empty sky that is unmoved, and unaffected by the clouds that pass through it.

I think its clear that her process of "trying to conceptualize incomprehensible topics" is striking a deep chord in thousands of people so...the real discover here is this is not for YOUR personality right now.

I know what you mean, but I think seeing the emptiness is just the first step, after that begins the integration process through which we gradually become more and more alive in this world again but it seems to be a long process. For me it was never a choice, because the alternative meant too much suffering so I felt the path was the only way. I think it also comes down to how much we want truth. Do we want truth at any cost? If the answer is yes then it’s not so much a matter of choosing this path or that path, when we are committed to truth it will not even feel like a path it will just feel like being with exactly what is at any given moment.

@@SuperVikingofDenmark I dont think I want the truth at any cost, my perspective is rather practical. Since I'm an atheist I assume we only have this life here I would rather avoid unnecesary suffering that goes with isolation from society and meaninglessness, but I guess then I sign up for unnecesary suffering that goes with being entangled with ego

Meaning is what moves the body and mind. This can exist with or without story, whether individual or interconnected. Hence, the question is less whether meaning is happening, and more whether story is grasping. For me, there was no real choice, at least not in the long run. Becoming everything and nothing was the seeming only way out of egoic suffering. There still arises suffering, but it's been much more fleeting, and with less belief in "knowing".

​@@pj956 How we experience our life, and the quality of every relationship we have depends on the ideas we have about who we are. What you identify with determines how you think and respond to people, it determines your attitude, and behavior toward the world. The misery and suffering inflicted upon other living beings, the pollution and destruction of our planet is a direct consequence of confusing the unchanging reality of what we are for an appearance that comes and goes. This is very practical and extremely meaningful at a conventional level. Self-knowledge is the most important knowledge we can acquire because it affects every aspect of our lives.

@@Hermit-lo7bwYou are probably right

Well, It seems like an internal "you" problem and less a Suzanne thing 😂 video starts with, "take what I'm saying lightly...." (No judgment here. Just a random thought that popped up after reading comment. Meaningless really, like all thoughts.)

The “Suzanne you know?” Who is that, exactly? We can’t even freeze ourselves in place. How could we possibly freeze someone else in place?

Please God, save me from Non-duality youtube comments! Thank you. 🌱

This was a video from back in November 2023 :) So I don't think you're totally off. I think at the time it was just a response to those where deep trauma was coming up and to stop believing that somehow that isn't this. It was a little encouragement. Even though it was months after, I posted it anyway cause it really doesn't matter and some might find it helpful. I appreciate your comment and contribution. ♡

Why can't people just be appreciative around someone being authentic and vulnerable...we are all still human and you can choose not to watch? Thank you Suzanne ❤🙏🩷very courageous and so much heart is my story about you 😅...but who knows what everyone sees is their projection and where they are at. I love and benefit from your channel 🥰

So don’t watch?😂

Leave and have a rest 😂
