Beyond intellectual understanding of non duality. John Wheeler

Описание: In this short Satsang teaching and non duality with an earnest student John Wheeler really helps to point out the errors and misconceptions we pick up on the path to enlightenment.

In the session John delves deep into the journey of moving beyond an intellectual understanding of non-duality. In this session, John responds to a student who is grappling with the concept of the false self and the lingering sense of identification with the mind-body.

Key Questions Explored:

How can one move beyond the intellectual understanding of the falsehood of ‘me’?

The student shares that, despite understanding the concept of non-duality, they still find themselves acting as though they believe they are a mind-body. This belief leads to feelings of depression and anxiety, particularly when faced with perceived threats to the mind-body.
Does reflecting or meditating on the non-existence of the ‘me’ help, or should one simply listen to pointers?

The student wonders whether active reflection or meditation on the non-existence of the ‘me’ would be beneficial or if it is enough to listen to the teachings.
Why do I continue to think there is something to do, despite being told otherwise?

The student struggles with the conflicting instructions often given in non-dual teachings, such as "do not seek," "just be," and "you are already there." They question why, despite these teachings, they continue to feel that there is something they need to do.
John’s Guidance:
John emphasizes the importance of recognizing one’s true nature as it is, rather than focusing solely on the concept of the false self (‘me’). He advises starting with the undeniable reality of one’s own being, which is the foundation of all non-dual teachings. John also addresses the student’s questions by clarifying common misconceptions and pointing out the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on intellectual understanding or external concepts.

This session is a must-watch for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of non-duality, particularly those who find themselves stuck at the level of intellectual comprehension and are seeking a more direct experience of their true nature.
