When we are talking about enlightenment we are talking about a fundamental shift within attention. It’s a form of non-attention within attention that is causing all the problems with regards to whether you know consciousness or not. The easiest way to snap out of that problem is to first of all feel the wave of consciousness strike you. Enjoy the wave of Bliss that happens in and around the Self, the Absolute Being. In that first wave the possibility for flooding enters, that is being flooded or overcome with that same Bliss.
When that saturation of deep flooding occurs there’s then a development within attention that restructures the point of view of the perceiver, whereby the perceiver is not resting any longer in a state of duality. The foundation of perception becomes restructured. That’s what awakening is. That’s what happens in awakening so that you come to see from a different place, not see a different thing but see from a different place. So, just the mere abiding in Bliss will itself structure that permanent and ongoing realization of the Self.
You’ll be shocked to see what it is. It can be quite dramatic to in the initial stages live in that newfound perspective, which is not a perspective it’s the truth. That’s what makes it so shocking is that it’s not the development out of some other sequence of understanding. It is a penetration right into the root of understanding itself. It’s very powerful, and because it’s so powerful you can’t really miss it. It’s not an event that can possibly be missed.
Moderator: A viewer in Sidney said, “David, thank you so much for reflecting to me who I really am today. I have been caught in maya, so thank you for the support here, deepest gratitude.” David: We’re all caught in maya as long as we are ...
David: Samadhi is reality itself. It's not merely a personal state of Consciousness. It cannot be reduced to a trance state or some kind of fixed absorption in Consciousness. Certainly, that describes one aspect of samadhi having to do with ...
David: Every person who’s going to evolve into realization of the Self will have to go through the oscillations of waking up and falling asleep. I’m telling you what it’s caused by, an ongoing, persistent measurement performed by that individual ...
David: Do you understand that it’s the I-sense that disappears in these great experiences? Participant 1: Yes, gets out of the way. David: So, that’s the balancing act, is to accept that. To be without the I, and then come back to the I, because ...
Participant 1: I'm going to try again at what I started with. I’m not asking advice, but more asking for you to share some of your direct experience. I just sat a fifty-four-day silent retreat, and I experienced the entire cosmos inside, and ...
David: One of the things I thought I’d mention today, which occurred to me as I was driving here, that the only real strength in the mind, when we talk about the mind’s strength, having a strong mind, is in its absorption in Being. That’s its ...
David: Namaste. Nature is organized and run by a single activating power. Not just a circuitry of power and channels through which power conducts and transmits, but a central agency of power that is self-implicit. In other words, the Energy does ...
Participant 1: At the start of the meditation, my heart area and my solar plexus got very warm. It was very Blissful. David: You are feeling the self-activating, naturally transmissive Bliss of the Self, the way it affects the body, in terms of ...
David: If you actually know you’re going beyond your mind, you’re going beyond your senses, you’re coming to the core of Consciousness, and you also know that you tend to return back into what seems to be an ignorant state, don’t complain ...
David: My desire is to resituate your life current into the cosmic Bliss current, to take your separate energy and reconnect it back into indistinguishable Bliss. For your sadhana will not find completion until that connection with the cosmic, ...
Participant 1: Is there such a thing as being invited into higher levels of Consciousness? David: Yes, that’s what this meeting is. It’s an invitation to do exactly that. It’s an invitation. Anybody can walk through that door and take up the ...
Participant 1: But the changes that I see myself and people going through are so pervasive, and all of the emotions, the physicality, the belief systems, everything gets shifted, whereas with other teachers I’ve been to it’s usually just one ...
