About my videos: These videos are a resource for anyone wishing to wake up from the dream of separation. Awakening, enlightenment, and liberation are becoming far more mainstream possibilities than they once were. There are many good teachers out there, and if you resonate with the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Rupert Spira, or Sadhguru, you might find resources here that address these deeper promptings to investigate your true nature.

The inquiries presented herein are potent and can have powerful effects on the way you experience yourself and reality.

    Hi Angelo, I left a rather angry comment the other day about how I was done with these teachings. I’ve been involved with Rupert Spira, Adyashanti, Mooji and others for several years and have followed your channel for the past year. I was angry with everyone and felt totally hopeless. The seeking and obsession with these teachings was driving me crazy. I checked your channel this morning and when I saw the title of this video, I decided to watch it. It has helped me more than you know. It was exactly what I needed. It’s change my perspective. Thank you.

    Wanted to share about my morning. This felt like the place - where you say "Let it burn ...[at] the center of you" - a sound bite I looped for a day this week (each day has chosen its own loop). Woke up and.... {Blue flame in my center; started as a sliver and expanded into a chasm. Ambient sound joined in burning. Only the edges felt tangible, glistening, glimmering with energy. An ocean rose and a mountain grew through it, glacially, stretching into open sky.} I wrote this after the 'meditation' which of course is an inadequate attempt to capture and express. Thank you for all your expression.

    Hey Angelo, i am curious to know how to apply these principles to practical things of the outside world that get us down. I care for my family's small regenerative farm and am now have direct environmental damage from a new neighbour breaking zoning laws and bullying any complaints or compliance. It is more complex than this , but to seemingly have to sit and watch society around (including me, although doing my best off grid etc) damage and extract so mindlessly from the living world around is more than disheartening. Is it that I just have to surrender my thinking and just get on with it. We never had any safety anyway. My ego must be somewhere around...it is all very painful.

I never saw it that clear. I saw and felt what it costs to believe and to hold on to that bunch of thoughts I take myself to be in that moment. Thank you for expressing this dynamic so clearly.

After I stopped trying there’s just despair and I was pulled into it today, bottomless despair and I thought, do I need to go deeper? And then. realised the despair is just a thought/feeling too. Who’s in despair? So then there’s nothing and there’s such a strong need to find another problem to solve 😂 😅

    I have been following your work (am currently going through a sort of “unfolding”), since my initial awakening after listening to J Krishnamurti. I used to be part of the TM movement (worked for the David Lynch Foundation). Though I am skeptical that TM will lead to awakening, it did alleviate a LOT of suffering. There’s immediate benefit, plus you get some glimpses into what this man’s saying. Same with ayahuasca… a mountain of emotional crap was released after those 4 days. Start with things that you KNOW will work, and that give immediate benefits. I don’t think awakening is guaranteed, and none of us are getting out of this thing alive. You can waste decades obsessing about this stuff.

    I feel like the more I reach for awakening, it’s like sand in my hands and I just get further away from it. I’m an incredibly happy person yet I’m so unhappy. I’m so content but I’m utterly discontent. I’m not alone, yet so unbelievably lonely. I feel I belong on this planet, experiencing this life, yet I know it’s not home. I feel this void inside me that I can’t fill. I know I’m making it harder to experience non duality then it really is and that frustrates me. It’s like I can’t break thru this illusion/simulation. Some days the emotional/spiritual pain is so incredibly unbearable. Like today, I just feel so empty inside and desperate.

    It sounds hopeless…. What if you let go of control for just a few moments? If you believe in God, can you just let God be in control for a few moments so you can relax? I don’t know you and don’t know what I’m typing here but I feel compelled to so sorry for the intrusion. I think you’re an overthinker, like myself. That’s what makes this process so difficult. You must release. We think we will get something at the end of awakening but there is nothing to be achieved, except absolute peace. It’s still a bumpy ride after that first shift, but it’s more like riding a surfboard. There will be lots of shadow work between here and there. ❤

Everything that one needs to be done to do work, so much resistance comes up, fear comes up saying how do you think this result is possible for you, and that you can have it, fear arises of not getting it, but its imp life depends on it, mind says oh no ur focus should be not on the result, how to do things without wishing for something or thinking of a target or imagining goals, and when u set that in ur mind, n then fear of not able to get arises, and then anxiety, then am left with clearing up of the wish , the fear, not thinking of the result so that doesnt manifest by mistake, and trying to just work, then motivation goes like ok what am i working for? why am i practicing for this test, underlying i know obviously i want to score good, the target is there u see quietly its there, I'd be fooling myself, SO HOW TO GET RID OF THE ANXIETY, FEAR OF ACCIDENTLY MANIFESTING THE WRONG, how to do practical thinking, how to let things manifest for me by divine will and how to keep that trust
