Healing the Wound of Separation, September 9, 2011
Is everybody comfortable? Pretty comfortable, bodily relaxed? No distraction, no strong thoughts, just nice clear relaxation? Your mind is not gripping you anymore. Where’s your mind? Where’s that knot that haunts you all day? That thing that keeps on telling you you’re you? Where is that?
It’s like putting ice on a fever; the transmission of Bliss here is like putting ice on the fever of your individuality, on the laceration of your separation. It’s disinfecting that wound. Notice how incredible this balm of healing is on this thing we call the separatized self, the separate mental self. How there’s just Samadhi here, just Samadhi.
Everybody’s ok? Everybody’s fine? I know I disturb your meditation when I ask you that. Very good. Where are you? You’re going away on us. Very good. That’s what I’m talking about. You see how that will dissolve your entire sense of solidity; it will just drink you up. It will be just pure Being.

You can feel how beautiful it is now in here. It’s such a beautiful, exquisite feeling. It’s absolutely astounding. It’s like a sweet thing, so sweet you can’t even taste it. But I don’t say that that’s in me. I won’t even say “I am that”. I ...
So when you get a deep sense of humor about this process, in this great depth of dissolution and death and dying into it, and you also retain humor and relaxation and ease and you don’t get involved with this or that, you are home free. You are ...
David: The silence therefore is like a womb from which the bliss arises. It’s not supposed to begin and end in itself. Otherwise there’s just a sense of having ended everything. There’s nothing affirmative about that. In other words, that might ...
Moderator: From a viewer in Arcata, California, “David you are beyond amazing. ‘Thank you’ seems so hollow, but THANK YOU (in large letters). David: If you are filled with this and you say “thank you” but that hollowness is there then that ...
David: Devotion, like the power of Shakti, like the poignancy of Silence - of Silent Being - has a raw and powerful quality about it. When the restrictions around the Heart melt and the Feeling-Nature is resurrected inside of that Transcendental ...
Moderator: From a participant in Seattle, Washington, “There is a powerful expression of love today. My heart is wide open and receiving. I love this time together!” David: Everyone should be happy now. The nature of the universe is expressing ...
Moderator: David, a participant in Augusta, Georgia, “Do tantric principles like the union or integration of Shiva and Shakti principles, dimensions play any role in your transmission and teaching?” David: Shiva and Shakti — those words, what ...
David: To me, sahaja samadhi and Transmission are the same thing. One of the pristine moments of realization in spiritual life is the dawning of sahaja samadhi when the body begins to emit a Current, a Current that is born of being both ...
Moderator: From a participant in Slovenia, “David, what is the quickest way to Self-realization or experiencing Shakti? Almost everybody experiences something, as I read your website.” David: What experience do you have? I suggest that you are ...
As you may have heard me say on other occasions, that both knowledge and experience of Consciousness are necessary for enlightenment. It’s also wise to add that the underlying assumption about reality is one of non-necessity. Here, non-necessity ...
David: Yes. Participant: It’s awesome to dive into another depth…, and a lot of Current. David: And a lot of Current, very good. Participant: Yes, definitely a lot of “awake-ness”. David: Wakefulness? Participant: Wakefulness. I kind of lose my ...
