I believe this is a message from the universe, Spencer. You are surrounded by so many tests that are hoping to break your peace. If you practice in these environments and never allow your peace to be shaken, you will go so far in life. This period of your life where it isn't easy, is the universe training you for what lies ahead. Although, If you are in a toxic situation, I do hope you find safe ground to step away. Sending light, love and positivity.

I agree, I always try to be present and when someone I view as a friend knows a subject is a sore one, I say it's in the past and that person doesn't have any effect on me anymore. This person will not accept my answer and continually bring it up to get an emotional reaction from me. No matter how many times I have shrugged it of. I dont want to be confrontational. So it's difficult, I try not to take it personally, but after a while it's disheartening. So I'm not sure if I have something to learn from being around this person

I stepped back from the world about a year ago. I intended to step back in but its much more peaceful here.

I sat quietly on a polished rock by the riverbank, listening to the murmurs of the gently flowing stream. It was a lovely morning & my gaze was transfixed on one spot in the crystal clear river. Suddenly I heard a faint voice from within whispered: "It's never the same water every time, is it?". It was a powerful A-ha moment for me. I realized that the name, the word, River has become an image that blocks us to see the reality: the water that flows is never the same. From that day on, I let my mind be like that of the flowing water... always new. But I do feel for those whose minds are like stagnant waters; most people just don't get it - what flows is Life. What stagnates is already dead. Hugs & love, Nada. Keep on flowing, brother.

Working on ourselves is truly the best way to understand others and to be understood. Working through the anger and frustration of not being heard or understood is difficult, because it's painful to not be understood. As another person on the spectrum, I know this feeling of being chronically misunderstood can build over time. It's important to give ourselves space to work through these feelings. Learning to control my breathing has been one of the most helpful tools I've come across, as simple and cliche as it sounds. If I don't have a calm body, there is no clarity of mind. Without clarity of mind, I'm almost guaranteed to communicate my thoughts, feelings, and desires ineffectively.

Taking sides is the problem. My “family” took sides and I stepped away. I no longer have a family. I have myself. People surrounding me and taking sides, most often against me, is not a family.

But, the situations created some hostility. Only foolish person will support wrong people stay with people who hate that person. I am such a fool since I don't have a place to go. But, I have a suggestion. Don't blame your family or anyone else about anything. Any talking about others creates sadness in you. Be away from emotions that force you to blame others. Your energy depletes. Instead recognize the bad with kindness but be away from them by wishing them well. Once you stop mentioning people in your conversations you will see how liberated you feel. You will become free and can go ahead with your life goals. Your goals are important and worthy of conversations. Not negative people. Always remember that. Negative people are an illusion. Your goals aren't an illusion.

Hate and blame also do not require personal accountability. Please avoid group think and of course, don’t watch the “news”.

I've never feared death and never hesitated to defend myself and others and the one time I didn't was because my friend was the bully and that person was never the same and hung himself a few years later and a week later that ex friend broke into a girls house the day of her funeral and her family put him in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. I blamed myself for not reacting when I should have. I believe one person actions could have prevented a school shooting from happening. The bullies that stopped talked to me later and told me it changed their life's for the better and apologized. I know the Buddha would protect others with right intention.

Thanks a lot for this Awakening. I´m going through hard times as others most probably do as well. I have to learn to love and understand myself. I always lived for others and let them broke me.

I understand where you're coming from with the idea of not engaging with this hostile person, but you should feel proud of yourself for putting in the extra effort. To actually take the time and energy to ask them to explain themselves so you can better understand them and fix the situation. That you we're indeed patient and compassionate in the moment instead of just reacting. Most people would have either ignored them or retaliated, but you went the extra mile because you wanted to understand them and let them know that you heared what they were saying (even if you don't agree with them) in their agitated state. You can 110% say you walked away "Hands Clean" of the situation because you did everything you could to solve it. Which is a lot more then most people do now a days and just contributes to your level of kindness & compassion you have for others. Be proud & at peace :) xoxo

We can all have peace and love when we take the time to go to our inner selves. Love and compassion towards others begin in self

I was about to go cold turkey on KZread because more and more recommended content was designed to trigger, via an 'us and them' narrative, but then the algorithm recommended one of your videos and I'm glad it did. This is one of the best KZread channels I've watched if not the best, and I'm steadily going through all of your older content to help me continue my spiritual journey. Thank you.

I wish I saw this before the same happened to me with a couple of friends of over 10 years. I spoke with respect and they were insulting and name calling. One just looked at my words and never responded and the other continued to attack me until I had to block her phone number. This video did help me have more compassion for them rather than feeling raw about what happened. It simply happened and all I can do is learn from it.

Yup I totally understand and have had the same issues. At the end of the day you don’t have control over anything except yourself and your actions. Observation without emotion is key. I see it with myself. Emotions good or bad cloud ones perception of reality.

The underlying realization behind this talk. A great insight shared. Thank you Nada. Much love & blessings to all🙏

When we have inner peace, we will have outer peace. No matter the circumstances. Our outer stress is a reflection of our inner stress. This realization happened for me recently, so I thought I would share it. If you are chasing a person, career or lifestyle, inner peace is actually what you really desire. And that is achievable outside of attaining anything in the physical. ☺️

I’ve always been good at having a set tone & always speaking kindly to everyone. Recently I’ve been so off on my tone & I’ve been getting so overwhelmed so easily by the smallest things. Being mean, saying things without thinking. It’s caused so many problems in my relationship too. & I know it’s not even what I mean or it’s not how I really feel. It’s me being so overwhelmed my words don’t come out the way they should. This is what I needed. Thank you for sharing your wisdom

Thank you for the personalized gift of Insight brother Nada. A moment without internal conflict awakens in us a deeper response to a peace that needs not to be understood but just accepted.

There are some who refuse any option other than to destroy themselves. This is a necessary process for some, and it's similarly necessary to prevent them from doing damage to others in the process. There are no ideal options, but there is an ideal approach. By living harmoniously ourselves, we can demonstrate the value of harmony to others.

its hard to have the grace to realize where my frustrations with people come from, if they're actually to do with my own patterns, or i am truly being misunderstood by people. i found your channel this morning and i'm liking your perspective on this. its probably best to leave things alone when it comes to others. its so easy to have your own flaws reflected back at you. it can be hard when you think you can help someone but youre met with hostility, and the end of the day its not really my job. i often wonder if they'd ever think of doing the same for me, or if they get all overly self-reflective after getting into a minor spat like i tend to. it can also be hard to get an accurate read on your own intentions! it seems so strange, after 7 months of being stuck in the house i feel like i need to draw back even further from people. having honest conversations is tough.

I have been suffering with PTSD all my life from a violent upbringing. My blood pressure goes down when hearing your voice . My breathing becomes easier and I start to relax . The fear goes away For a few minutes which is heaven for me. I’m 64 years old and very thankful for your messages and the soft empathy, Thank You. 🙏🏼

Thank you I needed this I’ve been reacting my whole life.

It is difficult to understand what is happening in the world and the energies of fear and anger are not the only way to be...love and faith in the goodness of the universe in the mystery that is always available to us. Fear blocking the blessings and love for all of us in this time of upheaval and craziness. Diversity and compassion for all people is the way to be. Stay present and listen and learn from the experience and bless the situation in hopes that we will find the best way to be kind and caring. We are all together and we're all under alot of pressure. Love heals! Perpetual and everlasting peace in my heart is how I cope. Not losing the vibration of loving kindness. Stay present. I totally agree with your points in your comments on how to treat awkward and angry people who get in your life. Careful not to add to the problem but to be thoughtful and understanding and realize the situation is in fear and needs patience and understanding that takes a gentle touch with hope for respect for our differences. Relax and allow the energies to change. We can't fix other people, only by living with love, truth and integrity to your life path.

Ive been saying for years.... That its important to respond, not react. I knew it was too simple and direct to be my idea. But I havent seen anyone use the phrase until now. But im grateful for the time and effort you have taken to explain what it means, in such a beautiful and well rounded way. Because I needed to hear it. And I hope others will feel the same. You nailed it. Thankyou...

Some of the most intense attacks on our character and believes can be exceptionally challenging to cope with, but may at the same time also provide a rare opportunity for personal development and wisdom that cannot be obtained otherwise.

I'm an intensely emotional person and me reacting on my emotions have made my life sooo much more difficult. It's insane. I'm really working on this but it's so hard. The hardest thing in the world for me. Sometimes it brings me to a point to just want to give up this life, this stupid body and fucked up brain

You will find peace and love in God, and you will start to love your life... But change can only come with truth, and you are on the right path.

I needed to hear this. Amazing message!! Thank you.

I was raised in a volatile home. It has caused great conflict in me and the person I want to be. I find myself reacting to things I know that I shouldn’t, and not responding in a way that reflects my ideals. It will be hard, but I will work on this. I struggle with being able to vocalize during moments it wasn’t needed and silencing myself in moments I need to convey something important. Thanks for this.

Its been over a year since I watched one of your videos, in that time ive spent most of it focusing on being in silence and solitude, thank you for inspiring the decision to do so. The space from which you speak, with the intent, is very powerful/effective. Much Love Brother Am.

Reacting is part of responding. Reacting is a human emotion. Rather than hide the emotions we might perceive as negative, we need to feel free to express those emotions. We should not suppress how we feel. Let your feelings be known. Greater calm and clarity can come from allowing yourself to express fear and anger. It's when you suppress these emotions, that they secretly build up inside and in this way, they do more damage.

Sometimes it just doesn’t help to lash out is something I’m learning.. tired of losing my cool over the small things.

I am so glad I found your page 🔆 thank you for your messages

The way you just explained it is just so calm, nice, compassionate, caring and other positive values towards others. The title of this video is totally agreed respond rather than reactions or something similar in a way. I forgotten your video name in full but that is part of human nature such as mistakes, forgetful and confused. Instead of judging, comparing, complain and/or blame we should be open, acceptance, learning and improving.

I haven't yet come across any other teacher who freely and honestly shared their present day limitations and hurts with such clarity and honesty. It helps me feel strongly that we are not alone. So much courage in willing to be so honestly vulnerable. I so respect you Nada for your courage and wisdom, so helpful to us , thank you

I appreciate your content. Thank you!

When guy say “expand our awareness” I think you need to demonstrate what that means to the average “angry person”

jt: it probably won't happen by just hearing an explanation. It starts by hearing, having it resonate although mysterious. Wanting to know more, longing towards it. Searching and listening, reading more. Changing deep-seated habits and unaware patterns and teachings is mostly not done quickly. I fsomeone wants to know, they listen to more videos, read books, talk to others. And will gradually get more and more, as it chisel their soul and spirit with fate.

@@Medietos Preach! For sure. Definitely provide these types of examples when you utilize these terms as your audience may not have your direct context. Much love!

I love your interpretation on compassion! My name means compassionate friend. So many people misinterpret compassion as a sign you are a bleeding heart for all to place their burdens on. This is not true compassion. Sometimes compassion is walking away while wishing the other person well. Compassion must also be reserved for oneself. Compassion could mean walking away and allowing the other person the freedom to be who they are.

This kind of content is rare. It is exactly what society needs but more than that it's what I need. Thank you for your kind words. Much love and gratitude and stay blessed brother

Ohh, my things were face to face confrontation and I felt physically threatened in one case, in the other my energy started being very effected. I was not capable of not reacting. I aimed that reaction at communicating my needs and limits, that I would not accept that treatment basically. But my energy was a swirling tornado of fire for days to come. I know this is about my past so I'm trying to understand and transcend. When someone threatens me physically or energetically through, I definitely cannot stay calm. I would like to understand the source of that and transform or strengthen. For now, I just accept that I am not perfect and I also have limits of my own which make me reactive as well. And feel compassion in my heart for the person even though I do not accept their behavior.

I appreciate and acknowledge your truth and vulnerability in saying this. I have been working on controlling this in myself for awhile now. Maybe this can help you understand anger the way it has truly opened my eyes. "Show me someone who is angry, and I will show you someone who has been traumatized/terrorized." I used to wake up very angry every morning, and I now understand that it was my trauma body/brain working through it. I don't know if this helps you at all, it just really hit home for me. I hope you are able to find your understanding. :)

Received this exact message from Spirit on Tuesday. Thank you.

Thank you. It's not society at large causing my disconnect, but my husband and family life. Your words have helped me to center and realize I haven't been helping anything by reacting. I appreciate that man.

I usually feel so ashamed when I react, while and after everything has happened. I don't know why some issues have such an effect on me. I am proud of my wide perspective in normal situations, but when I start arguing, I feel it step aside to protect my point of view. Thanks for this video, because I can now face it with less guilt and shame, and start practicing that mindfulness.

Responding is called making the most appropriate choices. Reacting is trying to control the situation with anxiety, hostility and resentment.

Brilliant! I'm glad I found this channel. Definitely subscribing. Thank you!

You know what helped me with this matter? Science, actual understanding how the biology of psychology works, makes all things so clear and simple even with still so limited research in the area to this day. There's no room for meaningless reactions when you understand how human beings work.

When misdeeds are done ,they must be confronted,called out ,told .it's not blaming it is responsibly ,a learning .

I really needed this today, as will so many others. Thank you

Thanks I needed this after the debate last night.

Perfectly articulated. I truly admire your ability to stay calm and put that triggered feeling aside to be kind and open minded and hearted. That was such a beautiful contrary action to choose. Sadly, I had to disconnect from a close friend because she allowed her emotions around current events to change her from a compassionate person to a hateful, bullying and judgmental person and while I know her intentions were good, all she did was add fuel to a raging fire and perpetuated more of what she claimed to be against. I send her love and well wishes because I know she has suffered trauma and loss that has caused her to behave the way she does out of fear and understandable anger but I had to set a boundary and remove myself from the friendship for my own mental health. I felt great anxiety about it and this message was so helpful and comforting. And you nailed it by addressing the media manipulation that only foments so much conflict and anger. It’s so big of you to take that time to put your feelings aside and think for yourself, and it’s not easy to do, which is, I think, largely why we find ourselves here. This is just such beautiful insight.

I want to say thank you for this video because this is something that i 've been thinking about for the last few days. Listening not just hearing what someone is saying is something that we people as human being not doing really well sometimes and always acting with a negative respond instead of actual process what someone have to say and we come to the result of reacting and not responding. i as a person would love to fix that and its something that, i sometimes catching myself creating excuses about the results of a conversation which is giving a rushed or negative react to the person that is talking to me. But i really struggle with fix this but keep trying is the way. So if somebody else can do it ,i surely can improve myself as well. So thank you for that and to all this people on the comments that are seeing this and read what i have to say.

This is my second video and both share a real-time personal story, with settings and details. I am in happy awe. You are the first and only spiritual person here (and a man!) to realize how the heart of upsets is neither politics nor religion nor race nor anything but personal relationships and their incidents. All other apparent divisions are but masks covering the core wounding of early life trauma. I do not expect to find psychological analyses here and it isn't necessary, for there is wisdom. Again, thank you.

"the heart of upsets is neither politics nor religion nor race nor anything but personal relationships and their incidents." I was about to acknowledge the truth of this when I noticed it was my own post! :-)

This video came to me at just the right time :) Thank you so much for making!

I recently had a similar experience,Nada..this friend has been abusive to me for many years,never apologizes, but instead puts all the blame on me. This person never takes responsibilty for their actions. I am very relieved we are no longer friends..i see now how much anxiety this person caused for me.Some people really do not grow. They are toxic.Thank you for these wonderful videos. 🙏💛

I needed this man. You're truly a breath of fresh air. Thank you.

just found you channel and I couldn't be happier right now...I've really needed help during this journey...and your whole tone and words helps me tremendously...I actually cried through half the video....I have never heard anyone put it quite the way you do. Calm is the 🔑

It's so nice to hear you speak and hear the truth you talk of. So often I hear one sided opinions. Rarely I hear such wisdom for both sides.
