You do not exist. That is the truth. That sense of I and YOU, the sense of separateness, is an illusion. It does not really exist. For example, as you are listening to me, you are seeing me but you are not hearing me, and when you hear me, you are not seeing me. But that is happening so fast, that you have this illusion that you are seeing and hearing. The two senses have got coordinated, like in a movie, unless you have those 16 shots moving per second you will not see the hand movement, in the movie theatre. If the projector is slowed down it becomes only like a slide. Similarly, here the senses are coordinating at a particular speed whereby you are feeling that you are seeing, touching as though all these things are going on at the same time. It is this illusion that creates the sense of Me and I. If this is slowed down, you all just vanish! So, now you are there. If I were to slow down your senses, if you would give me permission, you would just disappear. You will go back home minus yourself! But you will still be very functional, you will in fact be very efficient. The sense of separateness would completely be gone. What remains there is life or you may call it pure consciousness; the stuff from which this whole universe is made. What is there ultimately is consciousness and that has to only to be experienced. How can you see yourself? There is no way to see consciousness, because you are that. Its true nature is Ananda and Love. It is a causeless Love.

What you call love is not truly love. You either beg for love, asking somebody to give you love, or if you give love it is because somebody is big or famous or great or wealthy or you have something to gain from that. You love your wife or husband because he or she means something to you. You possess somebody, you are attached to somebody. That is not the love we are talking about. This love is a causeless love. It is just there. This can happen only if the I the self disappears. Its a very simple thing - the senses have to be slowed down a little bit and behold; You are not there! What is there is only life. You will feel you are one with the universe, completely one. It is not a mystical experience. A mystical experience comes when the kundalini rises to the chakras, but when it comes down the experience is lost.

  • The music gets in the way of the message. Try again!

  • This is an awesome video and hilarious. I could barely stop laughing. It appears that the negative responses stem from fear leading to anger. You must be rocking some people's very foundation, or is it so?

  • Your philosophy didn't give you the sense to shut down the annoying music. YOU DUMB FUCK!!

  • Google the first few words of this presentation until you find a Google Books result. It's called "The Art of Redemption."

  • The ego has played a big part in our survival, but now its time to shed the ego, and let the true self shine!

  • @dorinel2001, could you possible be so kind as too lower the volume of the music on this video because this is a great message but it is being lost when certain individuals cannot hear the dialogue over the music. This message is too important to not be heard.

  • This is mind control programming.

    There's a REASON his voice is mixed low in relation to the music- because that increases its effectiveness on a hypnotic level.

  • Seems like it would have been a great video but the music is just as loud or louder than his voice.

  • @Tim2of75 Good. 

  • Read some Ayn Rand. Individualisim is the nature of the univers. This is a ridiculous collective and immoral message. People who are crushed under the weight of their "Ego," are to weak to even know what they want out of life.
