I have been watching your videos for some time, and it's so true and beautifully explained. Thank you for your efforts. I too talk to people and do Satsangs about Self Knowledge. But this above video is my own experience too. In right words beyond experience. My teas fell down. No 'I ' is the happiest . Thank you 🙏🙏🙏❤
Beautiful and profound, thank you 😊
Thank you so much for your clear explanation..❤
I am just this conscious presence ❤😮😊❤
thank you, i'm in tears
I am but who am I? What am I ?
You are what makes perception possible. You may enjoy this one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pGx-2bqqYLuXf9Y.html
Thank you Nabil from the bottom of my heart for your content, keep going as l enjoy your work immensely. God bless you
It sounds nice to be able to surrender, but the washing-up wouldn't get done without me.
Thank you so much ❤
I wasn't aware of being aware till the I appeared on me. But this I got entangled with the world, with desires, with good and bad, with becoming.... and this veil appeared between me and myself and between me and realty, the mirror got stained and whatever I see is transformed by the non-I and covered the pure of the pure which is so close, closer than the seeing itself. Now I know but I am still cleaning the mirror day after day just to be pure awareness.
This reminded me of Master Hui-neng's response to Shen-hsui. Shen-hsui wrote this verse on his understanding: "Our body is the Bodhi-tree, And our mind a mirror bright. Carefully wipe them hour by hour, And let no dust alight." Hui-neng responded with this: "Bodhi originally has no tree, The mirror has no stand. Buddha-nature is always clean and pure; Where is there room for dust (to alight)?" The verse led to Hui-neng being chosen as the Sixth Patriarch of Zen Buddhism.
@untangle-your-mind In reality the awareness is always pure as the dust is the false views and they have no real existence. It seems the response from Hui-Neng is to tell Shen-Hsui that he attained the pure consciousness of the self and in this sate there is no dust and no body. Thanks for reminding me of that :-)
Nicely done. Wonderful expression of truth.
Beautiful ❤️
Thanks!
Thank you! 🙏

Wow this is so powerful. Half way through it I started crying. It was like crying for something that I thought was lost but is right here. Much appreciation 🙏😊🙏 Linda
Thank you. I am so glad this pointer struck home for you.
@@untangle-your-mindthat’s why I keep listening to your talks & keep questioning everything arising. More & more clarity happens. 🙏
“14 billion years in the making is the outcome of the love to be. “ But who was there to love before the being and who is there to love beyond being ? So if love to be is while being, when being ceases to be, does the love ceases to love?
This can't be thought of linearly. Maybe cyclically. The cycle begins at the end... in the complete fulfilment of love. The starting point is what love desires -- to be together forever in peace. That is the base Reality; the Absolute. Pure Aware-ness. The 'love to be' appears in that pure Awareness. Love is the first movement. When you look deeply into the sense that 'I Am', you find this all embracing Love of just be-ing. It swallows you whole to make you see that there is only the Whole.
Thanks❤
Please don't get me wrong, I love your channel, it is very inspiring, and I thank you for that and I'm very grateful. The thing is I wonder when I send a comment and receive an answer, it is from a human or a programmed AI generated answer?? Also, I gathered that the voice is a computerised one, sorry. 😔 No hard feelings?? 😊
Haha! AI voices do not have any inflection or emotion... yet. There is no AI used in this channel. Even the titles, thumbnails, etc. The subtitles are initially generated by youtube, but I have to fix them manually. The mic I use does make my voice sound better than it is in person! That's me and my family that feature in the Q&A videos: kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKCbuc-ggpPQgM4.html
@@untangle-your-mind OK, I thank you for your reply. I had to ask, nowdays what can and who can we trust??
Yes, as always, discernment is required! That is why it is said that true wisdom only ever comes from within. When the Heart speaks, it is not in words.
Stop it or I fall in love with you. Oh well, too late.
Haha! "Lose yourself, Lose yourself in this love. When you lose yourself in this love, you will find everything." -- Rumi
I’m happy to have found your channel! I’ve searched all over, some people I resonate with, some I don’t. You’ve got all my favorite ingredients mixed in here, the content, the voice that’s easy to listen to, and your style of delivery. Your use of language and metaphors just hits the mark for me. Keep it up, please and thank you!
Thank you. I'm glad you found this little channel among all the content.
Do we really get any insights from considering science, electrons, nerve cells etc.? If everything "outer" is illusory, and the interactions between mind and awareness are all that constitutes reality, then from that standpoint science and electrons belong to illusion. Even the brain is only a mental construct, for all we know.
There is at least some value in breaking down a mental model from the inside by pointing out its contradictions. When it breaks, Reality is most obvious. Dreams, too, have rules and laws. I see science as describing the laws of this dream universe from within the dream. Each life is a dream within this dream and so there are laws common to all.
My awakening destroyed me. 20 years later and I’m still seeing it’s nuances unfolding in my life. Thanks for the reflections.
Rarely does anyone get here by the front door. Some crash through the windows, other fall down the chimney! I hope all is well now. Afterall, it is always good to be home.
Poignant and stunning. Thank you.
What does "act on it" mean?
“Believe me, you are the Supreme Reality. Don't doubt my words, don't disbelieve me. I am telling you the truth - act on it.” It's the perfect closing to keep the disciple honest. How are you supposed to act if you are the Supreme Reality? Do you need to do anything? Improve in some way? Gain something from someone? Be afraid of losing something you have come to possess? Act on It is the reminder and commandment that pacifies the mind.
@untangle-your-mind Thank you. This connects to another query, or so it feels. I can't recall the 'quote' exactly, so I'll try to describe the gist of it, or at least how I've heard it. I can't remember if it was Nisargadatta or Siddharameshwar. It was about confusion. They said that the mind had not gone into confusion, had not looked at it or seen it clearly, but was only looking at pain, questioning pain. At this 'stage', feelings of confusion are the most highlighted, painful aspect of pain, when the ego is loud here. Oh.. well I feel somewhat clearer after writing that out.. I have certainly not been directly looking at the confusion itself when I'm ego, but at how the confusion is so painful! I would be interested to hear anything you felt like sharing about any of this, but I talked my way to seeing my own game there I think!
The quote doesn't ring a bell, but yes, the way of Self-inquiry is to always go to the core. What is confusion about? Who is it that is confused? Confusion only ever stems from thought. So it is just a matter of getting to the right question. What is the confusion about?
OK, getting to the right question.. yes, that feels appropriate and like the stuck loop might shift. The confusion is about how to respond when feeling acute discomfort, when turning toward the Stillness has no sense of Reality. This mind skitters around between ideas of doing/not-doing, (that dang oxymoron!) trying to find a resting place where it can bear the unbearable that is being borne. (Hmm.. i guess its trying to find an alternative, trying to NOT bear..) The confusion when no approach offers any sense of acceptance or feeling of openness to what is, is more acutely uncomfortable than the initial pain. Usually, doing/not doing have blended together in a way that I don't know how to describe. (That astonishing, still meeting point of the 'impossible'!!) Choice/no choice play into this 'how to respond' confusion, are very interwoven. There is no me actually making choices to do or 'not do'! I just want a simple clear cut choice to make when there is writhing discomfort, to bring ANY relief/acceptance. I would like 'what am I?' to be something I can turn to always, as it usually is now.. but not when, as I said, the feeling is 'off the charts' intense, where the body is in panic mode as well as the mind. Gosh, perhaps its simpler than all that.. perhaps this 'container' simply hasn't expanded enough in awareness to hold that level of pain/discomfort with any equanimity yet. Perhaps I need to just accept that I cant accept, and stop trying to be at peace or alleviate the confusion.. breathe through it so to speak, like physical pain. If I cant 'not-do' with the mind, I CAN focus on my breathe and relaxing the body til it passes.. well, gosh again.. I just understood another dream Nabeel. Thank you xxx (BTW.. The 'hook' is loneliness. Usually being alone feels like the safest space here, company less safe. But sometimes this shifts into such loneliness, concurrent with the company of my fellow humans feeling very threatening. The more 'god meeting god meeting god' is in my awareness, the less often I miss/fear company. But now when I feel alone, its more acute than before, because I dont just feel apart from people, but from 'God'.)
Well, firstly, if there are practical steps available to you, you should try that. There is no need to try to solve all of life's pains with some superhuman mastery of the mind. At the same time, the core insight here is surely a balm for loneliness. That hollowness in the heart only ever appears with the thought of being an individual person separate from other persons. But the insight here is that there are no separate persons! With the insight that there are no separate selves, that Awarwness is the Self, the mind has no basis for manufacturing this loneliness. So the loneliness itself should become a pointer to remind you where the mind has gone astray. The misery is reminding you, "Don't touch that old way of thinking. It's scalding hot!" Just remember what you are, and the heart will overcome the mind.
"Not someone to be pitied, saved or liberated." Freedom indeed! 💥Thank you🙏 dearest Nabeel for the seeing, hearing, and feeling of your remarkable pointing. ❤💫❤
Yes, quite agree that this charecter is nothing but a collection of phenomena being played, just like water seen in the mirage. Sometimes the moon too appears during the day but so dimmed out by the Sun light that it is no more of interest, who cares. Thank you.
So beautiful Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
You don’t need self for experience
Empty is the world
Thanks!
Mere words fail. The flapping of thoughts, shuffling of concepts, stilled by relingquishment. Such relief, calm, equanimity and the still silence of emptiness. I find comfort and frankly, companionship in your narration. Thank you.
Thank you and I'm glad you found this channel. There is a unique kind of companionship in this simple insight. At once, you see through the eyes of all the sages and mystics throughout history. "Those who have passed the barrier are able not only to see Jôshû face to face but also to walk hand in hand with the whole descending line of patriarchs and be eyebrow to eyebrow with them. You will see with the same eye that they see with, hear with the same ear that they hear with. Wouldn’t it be a wonderful joy! Isn’t there anyone who wants to pass this barrier?" -- Mumonkan, Case 1: Joshu's Dog, Master Mumon's commentary.
I just found you a few days ago. 37 years old from Australia. I think I’ve been going through like shifts in consciousness since I was a child, but it wasn’t until recent, it has become very clear, In that i’m not who I thought I was. And now that I think back it was the universe giving me subtle hints the entire time. Love your content thank you 😊
Thank you. It does feel that way...that this whole life was setting you up for this one simple realisation. This was the whole point of it. I'm glad you found this channel.
So beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Self ❤
Thank you for your generosity 🙏
The elegance, beauty and freedom of truth. Respectfully most grateful for your ministry of truth keeping it front and centre for all with perception to know.
Thanks!
Thank you for your generosity 🙏
This was precisely how it was on seeing the "IAM" in the forefront . Felt the states of the mind a dream. There were mild shivers in the body with fever and total disinterest in eating, no taste. Neither could sleep. It happened in early this March.Had several such glimpses since 2019.Even last night could not sleep at all.Every second it was the Self alone in each perception. Yet quite can't say iam not the body or the mind, as Sri Nisargadatta said.At 60 nothing matters anymore.😊 Can you please help Nabeel? In my first glimpses early one morning, in 2019, I could see only myself everywhere, this body wasn't there, did not know how to get down the cot, could not see my face in the mirror when brushing the teeth!!. I cannot say how long this episode lasted also. When i asked my Guru here, he said that when the fruit is ripe it leaves the branch of its own. Till then asked me to stay in silence.
Try looking at it this way: To conclude all this you don’t need any new experiences. The ones you have already had are sufficient. What have they told you about yourself? When you see your face in the mirror now, how is it different to when you couldn't see it? On the side where you are, there is still no face. The face is only seen 'over there', a reflection in the mirror. It is not that you are not the body or the mind. That is a pointer earlier on. Later on, you see that this body and mind, this world, this whole stream of consciousness from beginning to end, is a small reflection of what you are. The face in the mirror.
@@untangle-your-mind Thank you.
Beautifully deep, simple elegant. So hard because it is so simple. Thank you kind friend.

Thanks!
Thank you for your generosity 🙏
Could you please do a talk on chronic pain and Presence? Really struggling with the physical pain. I would love to have a conversation with you. Ty ❤
I will try. Realisation brings relief from psychological pain and changes the relationship to physical pain, but physical pain is still most acutely felt. So I can't tell someone in pain that there is a cure. As long as there is consciousness, there will be pain in one form or another. We can only work on making it bearable. Wishing you better health ❤️ .
Beautiful, I totally resonate with this , thank you so much , immense gratitude ❤🙏🙏
You deliver such truth in a very profound way! Immense gratitude for you and your gift!
Wow. Thank you. Beautiful reminder. ❤
This made me cry! Bless us all!
Sentient jelly beans 😂😂😂❤
Eagerly waiting for that great moment Nabeel, "the total annihilation of the sense of separate self". What does it feel like in the state of deepsleep after the total absorption in the Self? The subject/object duality surely ends, bringing in lot of peace and ease in living. As it is don't involve in daily activities much. Prefer solitude. Don't sleep deeply and no dreams either. Just in wait to merge completely in the Self, like Sri Ramana Maharshi. Pray for Jivan mukthi in this very life. I am sure HE will not deny it.. Thank you Nabeel for all your wonderful videos so painstakingly done.
So beautiful video, makes me cry ❤ when you talk about what we really are. Thank you ❤️🙏
Oh wow this brought tears to my eyes as I was seeing through the ego more & more. I find it very challenging atm, especially with health struggles but your videos help me so much. It is getting clearer & clearer but I feel that the ego just doesn’t want to let go & I keep getting pulled into the illusion of the separate self. Im in Australia (NSW) & was wondering if you do one on one sessions online? Much appreciated Linda 🙏🙏
Hi Linda, I'm sorry to hear about your struggles. I don't do any sessions at the moment, but there is an email address on the About page of the channel so you can drop me a note, and I'd be happy to help if I can. There is another channel I used to listen to by Terrence Stephens, a Melbourne based nonduality teacher, and I think he does do one on one sessions. I can say that he most certainly speaks from true realisation.
Thank you, yes I’ve done one session with Terry, he’s great but can’t afford another at the moment. I’ll keep listening to your videos… they are really inspiring & if I have a question I’ll email you. Thank you so much 🙏😊
Thank you. This is so beautiful. It’s the icing on my cake ❤❤❤
