You could never hurt anyone!
from Satsang with Helen Hamilton · host Helen Hamilton
In this beautiful Satsang we explore how the idea of being a separate person that is making decisions is the cause of all guilt and shame. If we believe we are a separate person, we will feel we are making the right or wrong decisions and it is simply not true. All is unfolding spontaneously as the infinite Self in which there are no other beings. We are free now and from this place of freedom we can look at any emotion and allow it to release.00:00 There are many drugs and certain practices such as sleep and light deprivation,... that produce a state of disidentification with the ego. Aren't enlightenment states another psychotic and permanent state of mind? How to prove otherwise ? 05:57 I still believe that I am the body, a person, I am not sure of being my real Self, I still feel anger, envy, jealousy, in spite of my constant spiritual quest. Can you please talk a little bit about it and help me with this? 11:37 If enlightenment is freedom from the feeling of being separate, then who is the one who is free from that feeling of separateness? 14:40 The heart sutra. Emptiness is form, form is emptiness.Could the analogy of this teaching be that of lucid dreaming, that is, living completely this dream we call life, without attachment to or rejection of its content, but knowing and recognising at all times its dream nature? 17:25 If I am the Universe there is nothing that can be against what I want to do and I just have to see how I am blocking the power. On the other hand you says that there is nothing you can do but observe and taking away the idea that you are doing something. That there are no decisions that we make. How can you understand this two things? 19:54 As the Noumenon: does intention generate the phenomena that we perceive? Do we determine reality? 22:45 When we discarnate, does the mind remain the same or does it disappear?When I meditate and the mind is silenced, I am like emptiness, I am nothing, is that correct?26:13 If there is no separate self then there is no good or bad , war and peace is one because there is no separation. There is only one, unity, i.e. no one can die or live because the ego is illusory, (the person), therefore no one leaves a better or worse world. It is an illusory game and each character gives it reality, by believing ourselves a body, and a person with beliefs, prejudices, we judge the world. I also believe that we don't have free will even if we recognise ourselves as a unit because there is no one there. I would love your advice, is it something like that?, or am I wrong?30:29 Something has happened to me lately after contemplating, that I started having disturbing dreams. First I used to wake up with a fluttering heart but lately even though the dreams are disturbing when I wake up the heart stays calm but now I feel what I felt in the heart in the solar plexus. 34:18 How can we love the misfortunes of the world, the murderers, the rapists... Is there such a thing as evil?, and how can we love it, and the parts of ourselves that we don't like, do we love them?39:22 Self inquiry: What are you?51:30 Contemplation: Experience: Skin problem. I can't find the emotion. I feel disconnected from the world. Belief: I can cause harm to another being 1:12:15 Contemplation: Experience of losing consciousness, family history of Alzheimer. Emotion: Fear of not being in control, of losing consciousness when I meditate. Belief: I can lose control
