The direct path is a spiritual approach which considers that the content of experience is a creation of the mind. And for the mind to be in truth, we should turn away from that content to what lies behind all of the experience of being, which is consciousness, intelligence, love. The direct path is completely solid and grounded, and that's awesome. But the thing is, the mind is still operating in a world where we work, we have family, mortgages to pay or problems with our boss. So if the only truth is what is prior to the mind's creations, what do we do now with this reality? That's what we are exploring in this episode. What is Covered: -Explanation of the direct path-The problem with a lot of spiritual teachings of the direct path-How the direct path grounds us deeper into reality-Expanding the emotional capacity vs. denying the pain-How the direct path reveals itself in the midst of the confrontation-Why “What do you want?” is the crucial question to ask ourselvesResources:-Learn more about me and my work at https://claredimond.simplero.com/ -Find me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/claredimondreal -Let's connect on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/clare-dimond-b533007/ -Follow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/clare_v_dimond/

It's impersonal, arising out of causes, arising out of conditions moment to moment. Here we see that consciousness is not something that's permanent. It's not something that's always present waiting for an object to appear, to be known. But rather consciousness itself is a process continually arising and passing away moment after moment.” – Joseph GoldsteinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

But when we look more deeply, we see that these are concepts too. How old is your breath? It doesn't make sense. Is the pain in your back male or female? What color is your mind? It's not to say that the concepts don't point to some differences of experience, but we often become so identified with and attached to the concept." – Joseph GoldsteinSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Rupert Spira provides a profound exploration of non-dualism, addressing fundamental questions about our true nature and the essence of existence. Beginning with the inquiry “Who Are You, Really?” Spira guides us through a journey that challenges our habitual thoughts and beliefs, encouraging a deeper connection to our being. He delves into our inherent longing for happiness and the qualities of awareness that shape our experience. As he explains how the universe separates itself to know itself, he highlights the implications for morality and our relationships, viewing them as containers for growth and understanding. Spira also discusses the transformative journey of enlightenment, the different types of meditation, and the potential pitfalls of spiritual ego.  This exploration not only sheds light on the nature of thoughts but also offers practical guidance to embody your true self, making it a must-watch for anyone seeking deeper understanding and fulfillment in life.  Sponsor: Pique's Black Friday specials are HERE with weekly deals in November.

At the age of seventeen he learnt to meditate, and began a twenty-year period of study and practice in the classical Advaita Vedanta tradition under the guidance of Dr. Francis Roles and Shantananda Saraswati, the Shankaracharya of the north of India. During this time he immersed himself in the teachings of P. D. Ouspensky, Krishnamurti, Rumi, Ramana Maharshi, Nisargadatta and Robert Adams, until he met his teacher, Francis Lucille, in 1997. Francis introduced Rupert to the Direct Path teachings of Atmananda Krishna Menon, the Tantric tradition of Kashmir Shaivism (which he had received from his teacher, Jean Klein), and, more importantly, directly indicated to him the true nature of experience. Rupert lives in the UK and holds regular meetings and retreats in Europe and the USA.
