THE ROOT OF IT ALL

March 23, 2015/0 Comments/in Advaita, Freedom, Non-duality, Satsang, simplicity, Spirituality, Truth /by Unmani

Analyzing negative thought patterns is helpful sometimes, but they are never the root of it all. These thoughts are just an expression of the old familiar belief that there is something missing, or wrong with you. The root of it all is You. And this ‘You’ is not a thought or belief. It is not something to agree, or disagree with. It is not something to become, or to doubt. It is the whole, spacious freedom that you have always been, even if thought imagines, or insists otherwise.

SLOWING DOWN

March 18, 2015/0 Comments/in Freedom, Non-duality, pregnancy, Relationships, Satsang, simplicity, Spirituality, Truth /by Unmani

As most of you already know, I am now about 7 months pregnant. Over the next few months, I am taking some time to slow down, and just be with what is happening with my body, our baby, and our beautiful little family.

Although I won’t be traveling or holding more meetings or intensives until August, I am offering a limited number of online private sessions until mid April. If you would like to arrange these, please see: https://www.die-to-love.com/wp/dive-in/online-private-sessions/
I will also be continuing with our Monthly Themed Webinars as long as it feels good to do.
During these ‘slow’ few months, Robert, will continue to post here on Facebook,Youtube, and our website. And Nicola, my assistant, will continue to respond to emails at: admin@die-to-love.com
Love Unmani

WAKING UP TO REALITY

March 16, 2015/0 Comments/in Advaita, Freedom, Non-duality, Satsang, Spirituality, Truth /by Unmani

Perhaps it’s time to wake up to reality. This reality might not fit your ideas about how ‘awakening’ should be. It does not give you any great reward, and is not necessarily comfortable. It might actually be painful to acknowledge what is really here. But the reality of what is really here, is where you are at right now. It’s like admitting that, yes this is what is happening now – whether I’d like to be more enlightened, or non-dual, or anything else. Throwing out all ideas about how it should be or could be, this is actually the truth of this human right now.

I AM NOT ANY PARTICULAR EXPERIENCE

March 8, 2015/0 Comments/in Advaita, Freedom, Non-duality, Satsang, Spirituality, Truth /by Unmani

We are usually so fixated on experience that we assume that when there is a so-called ‘good’ experience, that that means that ‘I am a good person’, and when there is a so-called ‘bad’ experience, that that means ‘I am a bad person’. Thought doesn’t know who am I, so it looks to the play of experience for the answer. But experience keeps changing. We keep looking for our identity in what happens, rather than seeing that who we really are is that that is aware of the whole play of experience without exception.

HOW TO LIVE WHAT YOU REALLY ARE?

February 25, 2015/0 Comments/in Advaita, Non-duality, Satsang, Truth /by Unmani

In a way the recognition of what you are, or initial awakening, is the easy part. But living as that is the real challenge. As much as it may try, thought can not help out. Whatever ideas you may have about how this should be lived, are meaningless. The truth is that you just don’t know. Living with that not knowing moment to moment can bring up fear and anxiety. Everything is undefended. You are walking vulnerability – an open wound. Open to whatever is here now. Not only to the pain and heartbreak of life, but also it’s unending heartbreaking beauty. Responding moment to moment to life experience as it presents itself. Letting your heart break open and open as you meet life in all its glory and its horror.
