Guided Meditation: From the Many to the One
In this guided meditation Rupert explores a pathway to the experience of oneness:
‘All spiritual pathways and practices proceed from multiplicity and diversity to unity; from the way reality appears to be to what reality actually is; from the many to the one.
‘The one knows the world by being the world, but it cannot perceive the world by itself. In order to perceive the world, it must overlook its oneness and consent to limit itself as a separate subject of experience from whose perspective it is able to perceive itself as the world. That’s what each of us are - an apparently separate subject of experience from whose perspective the one appears as the many.
‘But this contraction into a finite mind comes at a price: In the form of a finite mind, the one cannot know itself as it essentially is, because the finite mind imposes its own limitations on everything that it knows or perceives. So, in order to know reality as it is, we must remove everything the finite mind imposes on it. All that remains of the world when thinking, seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and smelling are removed is the infinite.
‘Start every day with an affirmation: “There is only one. I am that. You are that. Everyone and everything is that.” Make this single, simple, easy, obvious understanding the sole guiding principle of your life, and make your life an expression and celebration of that.’

Didn't work for me as a meditation, especially after 5:43 min when Rpert started talking about the perspective of the localized point of view. It felt to me like a thought experience and stimulated my mind rather than calming it. It felt like a lecture - a profound lecture, no doubt - but still a lecture that took me away from the Oneness I sensed at the beginning. But that's just me - it seems it worked for most people judging by the comments. Thank you anyway. I will just sit with it for a while. I noticed in the past that some of Ruperts teachings only hit me later in a profound way.
No words can express how meaningful this is. Thank you. 🙏
It was nice shifting between that which I was aware of, and being the awareness that was aware of it and as it. Good thought experiment/meditation!
Wise beautiful lovingful words for the one no-thing. Thank you.
You are the best Rupert. All my love to you ❤❤❤❤
All is ONE! Know this, FEEL this, BE this. The rest is just chatter for the mind (which is also the ONE appearing as chatter of course!) As soon as I say, “All is ONE,” to myself the smiles and chuckles appear and all is seamless and whole.
Clear and beautifully expressed. Thank you Rupert ❤
Thank you Rupert, this was exactly what I needed to hear today in my awakening. Love you ❤❤❤❤
Thank you Rupert , lots of love ❤
Thank you, Rupert ❤ Love Light ❤
Beautiful. Thank you!

Experiencing, perciving, thinking and feeling, the ego and everything else is ultimately made out of being.

I named a stray tabby cat Rupert because he's the calmest stray cat I know.
Of course the one can experience it’s self that’s what it does all the time !!! We live and die in unity and duality its yin and Yang - This guys got all the chat and little understanding of you ask me !

He said that though. That consciousness localizes itself to experience and taste itself. His understanding is crystal clear.
I am wondering if anyone can help me? I dont know if I can explain properly, but here goes. I have "waves" of "good" where everything seems to fall in place very well and it is visible to others. All of a sudden, in one day, this karma or wave turns upside down and everything stops sudden. New people disappear without explanations, situations halt, where that also is visible to friends. Nothing catastrophic, but within my own world its strange. Can anyone explain this?
This understanding is either going to set me free or put me in a straight jacket living in a padded white room. I suppose either way is being set free.
For the one there is no-one.
Rupert says the ultimate goal is happiness. My question is to whom is this happiness directed?

Compare this to Bernardo Kastrup 's "The Big Bang is a useful fiction ".I think, it corresponds fully to this Meditation! Thank you!
I may have been able to stick to this meditation if there had been large gaps of silence however it didn't and had to leave it. Eckhart Tolle said he was near suicide when he was suddenly 10:14 awakened and for a period if time was happy and just wandering doing nothing. Sorry this in my words not his. From what he said he learnt after the fact what had happened to him. I am beginning to wonder why am I taking in more and more info and how to's when every morning I wake up and aware -"God known by many names, the only Being being; omni potent, omni present, omniscient, omni action; all Light all Love, all Truth, all Peace, all Joy, all Health, all Wealth, all Intelligence; Conceiver and Perceiver of all idea, things, forms. All ideas things and forms are in God but not God. God's I identity is the I that I and my brothers and sisters Am. I am That IAM." I think I should get on with sitting quietly and know I am that I AM only. Hey if I am wrong I can try try again. 😅😅😅 God bless you all.
Hola ¡ 6:06 es reconeix a si mateix no per limitar-se sinó que la conciencia no sabuda de cap manera ha fet cap a aquesta Vida i,es tal qual aquesta Vida, així desde com és aquí reconeix que es la conciencia mai nascuda i totalment desconeguda, aquí així.9:44 tot lo que apareix en aquesta Vida es divers únic irrepetible distint de la única cosa sense segon 12:42 tot el que apareix té la seva gracia
