"AS IT IS" (the nature of "Ego-Death") - Jeff Foster

[joah578]

what....

[HeyzuseKeane]

Awesome

[TheTimeSphere]

5 dried grams of psilocybin mushrooms and you see it. Find out what's going on. You are some sort of being. Find out the truth for yourself.

maybe she was there when the shift happened :)

[ppatricide]

I hear what this person is saying, but I feel like he's sorta talking out of his butt for lack of a better phrase. I see he owns a house or apartment, and has clothes, and cigarettes, and a girlfriend (im assuming that woman is, she might not be), how is that ending the want of material things? if everything was more than enough as it already is then how can you add more onto it? He has sunglasses. Sunglasses aren't a default when you come into the world. You seek them.

[NewParadigmMail]

@ppatricide why would you reject the girl you love if everything is perfect as it is?

[ppatricide]

@NewParadigmMail

I'm not saying to reject her, but what you are saying speaks against having a girlfriend. Because she wasn't always there. Like everything else in life she was sought out. If everything was naturally perfect there would be no need nor desire to seek a relationship. Relationships are built on the desire to belong and to connect, which proposes that one feels disconnected without one.

@ppatricide maybe she was there when the shift happened :)

[NewParadigmMail]

@NewParadigmMail by the way it isnt me :)

[ppatricide]

@NewParadigmMail

Well that could very well be the case, but that still doesn't make you no longer a seeker. What are you reading in the video? What are you thinking about on your bed? Again, not to sound rude, but that is still seeking. What are your goals with the video? With the music? My point of all these questions is to try to understand /exactly/ what it is that you are describing.

[NewParadigmMail]

@ppatricide Its not me on the video. I just posted it on my channel. I get what he is saying, if you dont, thats ok too. Thanks for your opinion :)

[KiDxScReam]

This Shit Was Deep..

[DesertSmeagle]

so ego death....exactly what isit in a nutshell?

[s6y9l]

@DesertSmeagle Ego is Awareness perceiving through a personality structure comprised of thoughts, emotions, beliefs, memories. Ego death is when Awareness realizes/remembers that all of these things (thoughts, objects, people, places, memories, etc) arise and fall away WITHIN Awareness, but Awareness is the one unchangeable thing that is always present and is your true self. You are not IN a Matrix, You ARE the Matrix. Nutshell.

[rockisbetter]

nothing is new to me

[rockisbetter]

wtf? hahaha

[aziuceldahak]

If an individual is always a seeker, then stop being an individual.

[mufflestilskin91]

I've been smoking weed for a year now as a way to chill out cause i was constantly high-strung, but the more I did it the more the more I thought about everything. I had so many questions but no answers. then I became confused about who I was & I couldn't just relax and enjoy being high. Then the first time I did LSD I experienced ego death. It helped me cut thru the confusion and all the bullshit & I finally realized what's truly important to me and who I was. After my trip life was different,

[mokneyman]

sis that kid just kick a pigeon

[RagingInfoMachine]

it's only really happened to me a couple times, once on shrooms, twice during emotional break downs, and once more recently with pot. the irony in one saying that they don't understand this is that that statement - the "I" that claims to not get what this video means - is the very enemy in enlightenment. Eckart Tolle explains it pretty well...the first mistake is to say, oh, maybe someday I'll achieve ego death. the only time to achieve it is now.

Fall into the warm embrace of presence.

[Marronisince1990]

Thank you so much for this. This is beautiful. Peace to all beings x

[INSANECRAZYHODAPP]

question? When beaten down to the ground in a bloody pulp how do you stand if there's nothing to stand for? currecnt life is nothing more than suffering there. My hope for a reason is how I can do anything. If I wanted to flow with everything i'd let go and follow my id more in the idea of here and now. Also why not take both veiws? I flow and I look I feel part of everything at times but I've also got a restless battle I must to do what I need for those I love.

[Iamrazulle]

Very well done, thank you so much for creating and sharing. You certainly touched my heart and I hope others' as well. This really deserves to be viewed by many more... namaste:)

[heazilla]

nice video. you get it.

[gabigobstopper]

wow. this was beautiful. i saw so much of myself in this. wow. thank you.

[jeflagoon]

shit i really wish i got this

[crimberland]

I have always wondered why I feel so connected to everyone when alone... but completely out of context when I am in a group. I still wonder.

[pirenne]

@crimberland me too, thtas why i rarely see my friends

[Alucard255]

@crimberland

I believe this is because you know who you are. It is everyone else that confuses you. It's not your fault. You've done your part. It's unfortunate we can't all see this within us together as a society. Just a thought.

[ncripzx]

@crimberland when you are alone you know what you are. when you are in a group you think you know who you should be. takes tremendous attention in a group to realize what you truely are.

[projectplaylist999]

Fauk that was deep, some people just don't understand the (complex person).........the main dude reminded me alot of me and my complex mind and soul..very engaging vid :)
