More Advaita Adventures With Mr Tony Parsons

[YAHPorpoise777]

Sages have demons, people who follow sages are lost.

I was once lost, but now I am a saved follower of Yahshua HaMaschiach. You think I am an ignorant religious person, but I understand what is happening here. You say nothing exists but this is a wicked reality. The universe IS under the governance of God the father, despite how seductive these lies of fallen angels are. This man IS under the influence of a spirit, it is not his own state of 'consciousness'.

Dancing, dancing, dancing all around. Dancing. Hearing, hearing, hearing all the sound. Hearing. Seeing, seeing, all there is to see. Seeing. Looking for bliss? A cup full of piss! That's me! And I miss every point of every word I've ever heard. Miss every "IT" of the pile of shit that I see. Don't despair for my despair though. It's just what's happening. Peace! (He hopes upon his self.)

[superfuzz]

i understand exactly what he's talking about, but living the reality is very hard. it is total loss of "me" or "ego" , peter fenner, an aussie talks about the same things, but he's even more confusing. buddha and jesus spoke of the same things

[satguru]

Tony speaks from his own reality, it both reflects sages throughout history and expresses it far more clearly than most. Basically he's either right or wrong, and if he's right (as my own enquiries tell me) we can all be there ourselves. If you can't see your body then where are you? That's clear enough for a start.

[Frankcorky]

I love Tonys no messing about, direct, and straight to the point message. No faff and fluff and no side tracking. Tony talks about beingness and thats it.

[landsharkme]

don't ferget that the name Tony is rare, and include parsons. In scottish es cewlled pairson. Likely reminder oof person. so he's well with what he toulks aboot. lysten carefully. He's doin well ferhimself.....

[JackHighlander]

@landsharkme eh?

[LooksAeterna]

Notice 3:27 - 3:28

"..and I don'[oops] this doesn't.."

Why this "correction" ? The impersonal language is obviously not spontaneous but follows a reflected strategy. Spontaneously, the personal is still there because it arises spontaneously, but he doesn't want to admit that.

I think this is connected to his philosophical mistakes: from the fact that the separation is non-existent, he erroneously concludes there is no apparent person.

There is nothing wrong with saying "I", even Buddha did.

[LooksAeterna]

@LooksAeterna

What I find most ironic re this:

"I think this is connected to his philosophical mistakes: from the fact that the separation is non-existent, he erroneously concludes there is no apparent person."

is Tony's last name which sounds almost as if God was clairvoyantly quipping on the paradox of this person's message, calling him "The person Tony".

[LooksAeterna]

"There is no point" immediately self-contradicts at 0:24 - 0:26. Even if the result accrues to no one (yet to be debated), there is still a point: the "death" of that self-referencing habit in the mind which causes suffering.

I think this man may have insight (not sure), but his logical and philosophical refinement is insufficient to be a good teacher.

[itsonelouder1]

@LooksAeterna What he's saying it there is no point from the perspective of the individual. The individual will gain nothing because what can happen is the illusion of individuality can die.

[quantummom]

Thanks for posting woof203, I love Tony Parsons style!

[watnamecaniuseforfs]

If you saw it, you`d be blown away. It`s truly amazing.

[nottwozero]

Mind games.

[zenm00n]

This kind of distorted visionless 'advaita' must be the absolute lowpoint in modern day spirituality. . Reminds me of someone standing at the bottom of a pit, telling himself and the people around him, that he and they are actually standing at the highest mountain peak. And looking at his sad face it's obvious he hasn't gained anything as he says. Utterly rubbish.

[gainsbourg66]

I doubt you'd say that if you met him or had a greater understanding of his viewpoint. He is genuine, happy, witty, natural and one of the most together people you could ever meet. True, his viewpoint may seem like rubbish at first (and it may also upset some people because it is a rejection of religion) but once you truly understand what he's saying, it has surprising beauty and logic. Whether you actually go on to believe it, or become 'liberated' from your notion of self, is another matter.

[brittonnd07]

@gainsbourg66 There is no one to have a viewpoint

[VitaleBand]

Thank you for posting !!

[oxen1957]

This is all...........thanks to this Tony Parsons

[Lehmann108]

Neo-Advaita trash. Its trash because if I accept that he is liberated, then his perspective/instructions can not do anything to help one seeking liberation. The dharma of one seeking liberation is quite different than one who is liberated.

[thegyndy]

Tony's saying there is no free will...these ideas can help you achieve a moment of zen - not sure it is useful beyond this. Too nihilistic for my taste - the non-frame frame is still a frame. I believe the individual is the seperate pole to the oneness - denying one of them will unbalance you. The two poles do exist at one and the ame time - like a wave and a particle is a wavicle. Tony's subliminal slow head nodding after dealing with objections is a rather devious too.

[DivineNatureAwakens]

If everything in this universe is already happening perfectly by itself in harmony with everything, isnt then "Tony's" apparent "devious" head nodding just the universe expressing itself? Did it just happen or Is Tony a person doing it? Being devious? A particular way of this universe? Is he pulling a non-dual shuffle on them? LOL=) I am open to this; "the physical universe as form, not formless, is the only endless, that, matter gives rise to consciousness, not vice versa. What u think? Namaste

[angelicinspirations]

How gullible people are. Listening to Tony Parsons talking in riddles because he likes the sound of his own voice and has had aspirations to be a guru for years, He has copied all this stuff from Osho aka Bhagwan Rajneesh who was also a charlatan. This is a joke:)

[KarameloKaramelo]

copied? I think not. Osho did not talk this way. OSho talked for days and days and months and tony talks in seconds.

[THEGR8BIGM0UTH]

Yes it is :)

He said it himself

[annisha1975]

Shut up man. You have no clue of the truth ringing in these words.

[NonEvernoThing]

Wonderful excellent, explicit message! Thanks for posting. It is all that is! ;-))

[mrcuteblackie]

Hi. I also watched the video about nonduality which you commented on. I think the state of nonduality is the lowest form or realization. Why are they only one with this material world, not knowing that what we perceive is just what our senses let us perceive. There are angels, daemons, ghosts, which can also be seen and experienced. Why do they not experiences these too? I would never want to be in that state. Ego trip!

[Rhea303]

you absolutely have no idea what he is talking about, mrcuteblackie, or you would not write what you wrote.

[Ponferrada22]

soooo Tony what is aliveness?

u just put your hand up, that´s aliveness lol

[kelasche]

hi tony you are wonderful

[kelasche]

good work tony...but not totally right....

[NonEvernoThing]

yeah.. because there is no such thing as totally right..hehehe :)))

[TadRapidly]

This questioner is a good example of how language gets everything all fucked up but what can you do? :-)

[TadRapidly]

reflexive-your name should be "Reactive".

[tiggertager]

lol- thats exactly what his (her) name should be - nice one Tad- So Reflexive or Reactive i should say- if you reflect on why you feel so strongly that you would leave the same comment again and again and again- you might see it for what it is and it might fall away- there is no Eckhart Tolle- there is no Tony Parons and wait for it.... there is no reflexive- or no ONE who is reacting- just an apparent person reacting..let go of Everything (but who's letting go- no one)

[reflexive9]

PLEASE remember THAT HE DOES THIS FOR THE MONEY!!!! He says so in his OWN BOOK where he also confesses to being a used car salesman. HE'S TELLING YOU THAT HE'S "NOT" SELLING YOU A LEMON but that's JUST WHAT IS!!!!!!!!!!! Lemons that taste like COW DUNG!!!!!!

He's jealous of Eckhart Tolle!!!!!

[KarameloKaramelo]

This is what is happening. you get 3 red dots behind your name. lol. that is the source expressing himself as cow dung.

[AEWFCU13]

All there is,is ten pounds a head at the door.

[nizogar]

you are prior to the first sense of existence...beyond any concept or idea of what you are and what you are not ,you are...and for what you are nothing ever happens,even being is a mere untertainment!:-)

[nicolina22]

So so so so so cool you posted this. The excerpt you chose really is Advaita in a nutshell. Thanks so much, cheers n

[DiedLongTimeAgo]

Thanks for this

[elholandes]

consciousness is all there is. The rest is maya=ilussion.

[nizogar]

Consciousness is already imagination!...you are the origin of consciousness,the absolute substrat or nothingness that gives rise to consciousness and the appearances,but NOT separated from them...or as Tony says, you are nothing being everything...anyway,any word will be 100% off the mark!

[KarameloKaramelo]

why do advaita tac hers say you are awareness and that is all there is. So who are you then? the witness? or as tony says, you are the nothing that sees the manifested world?
