You need three kinds of faith to progress on this Path. You need faith in your Self; if you you’re going to be with me as a Teacher, you need faith in the Teacher; that the Teacher is real; and the third thing you need faith in is Life, Life Itself; the very nature of Life that gives birth to the Wisdom-Mind. That this thing that we are searching for — Wisdom, Knowledge, Truth — is something that’s going to be revealed from within the very power of Life, not from somewhere else. So if you have that triadic unity: faith in your Self, faith in the Teacher, faith in Life — then you have everything. Then it’s easy to just melt into Consciousness.
Moderator: From Seattle, "If ones entire nervous system is alive with the movement of divine energy and this radiates to others, is that sahaja samadhi or can this happen prior to sahaja samadhi?" David: Yes it can happen prior, most definitely. ...
When I say that sahaja samadhi encapsulates all the lower samadhis, and dissolves them into a new state, I don't mean that those samadhis go away. They are still all fully functionally present. Self-realization is present in sahaja samadhi. ...
Participant: I'll try to say something, I don't know if I can though. I guess, uh...I just, um...I just feel such a profound love in the room. That's all I can really say. David: We don't need words. So beautifully said and yet we don't need ...
You keep your heart open in love. Don't go away from love. Don't figure this out with your head. Just open your heart in it. It’s so much easier. I know people who just want to go through the mind all the time. Oh god. It’s like applying sand ...
David: Yes, please. Participant: It’s about positive affirmation. What's the limit to how powerful positive affirmation is? David: It’s as unlimited as your consciousness is. If you consciousness is small then what you affirm will be small. If ...
A group of enlightened beings is very precious, a gathering of human beings who are awakened. The reason is that, solitarily one enlightened person will just exist in that ocean of quietness. But when you put a group together, it starts to stir ...
Participant: You ready for another question? David: I'm ready. Participant: Uh, all right. Ah, some people experience Kundalini and are awakening, and are thrown into infinite Bliss. And other people experience Kundalini awakening and they are ...
It’s bliss. Once you become deeply vulnerable to this feeling of Being, you can begin to awaken into it immediately. Even if you are a spiritual novice and even if you don’t have any sadhana behind you. That is even if you haven’t really done ...
What is the purpose of a teacher? What is the purpose of an awakened teacher? The teacher is simply magnifying what is already occurring in your life. The teacher does not add any outer element into your existence that isn't already latently ...
David:It's all I'm talking about is myself, hopefully yourself. Hopefully, you don't see me as any kind of an authority with power. Power in what I say or power in what I claim. Hopefully, you don't go there. I stay out of that arena. It's ...
And it's very important to understand the word spontaneous, to understand, to know, to feel what goes on here, when we're together. It's all about consciousness. It's about awakening into, feeling into, breathing into, consciousness and ...
