When Sensory Experience Loses Its "Something-ness" ~ Shinzen Young
In this talk, Shinzen starts with "The Secret Thing you Can Do" and describes how the "Untangling of the Sense of Self" can go to a further implication - i.e. "The Something-ness" is "being released."
This is a phase of the path to enlightenment as we move towards letting go of "Self." Emptiness.

Gosh, we need more videos! These are priceless !
If you like this talk, Shinzen’s book “The Science of Enlightenment” is a very good guide.

That book helped me so much 🙏🦋
8:22 it is SO satisfying to hear someone describe the visual synesthesia of something “feeling” like it’s arising or falling, as if it’s coming out of somewhere and going back into it. That’s such a specific feeling that dualistic meditation can cultivate, and in my experience has only strengthened my sense of contracted self. It’s like labeling “experiences” as being in the foreground, when really there is no such thing as foreground and background at all.

Thanks, i needed to realize this, i often get stuck drying to "drill through" that "foreground".
The way Shinzen describes the meditative process is really beautiful. Thank you for these.
One of the most succinct descriptions I've heard from Shinzen
I love this. The explanation of ancient language is full of spiritual profit! Spiritual texts are so very practical.
Essenceless in blisscity... much love to you Shinzen and all the best! Please keep them uploads coming
Yayyyyy new video ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely spot on for me! :D I also have this like "black thing" in let's say "experiencal entities" accompanied by a white light somehow which might be the upcoming clarity 🙏 Thank you again! ❤ Makes me feel less crazy as i'm feeling like in this Zen-bootcamp-state (since i picked up the direction of becoming a buddhist monk) 😁
Thank You, Shinzen.
This is so sexy to me. My practice is back at semi-regular taste of liberation level. Time to regularise further. Thank you, Shinzen-sensei 😌🌌🙏
Ιncredible!
I know this will be thought of as petty but “it’s” means “it is. The title does not need “it is”. It needs “its “ which means something belongs to “it.” “When X loses its Y. If we lose these conventions, it is possible in a hundred years, we may be able to comprehend a few hundred years of written knowledge. Ok, on to enlightenment.
