Posting via WordPress got a little tedious, therefore I am now trying out memex.garden. Let me know if you want to collaborate (Holger@NondualSharing.com):
Exploring Reality as God
Michael Singer: “And then you go out there and use your will to try and manipulate and control every person place or thing that comes into your entire vicinity to be the way you need it to be that will match your ego.
Do you understand? I’m not yelling at you…” Read More
Michael James & Swami Sarvapriyananda
ChatGPT: “The answer to whether Buddha knows everything or nothing is that he knows the only thing that exists which is the oneness of everything. The world appears real to those who do not have knowledge but for those who have knowledge, reality pervades devoid of form.” Read More
Deep Rest
“Jim Carrey, a two-time Golden Globe winner, jokes about how he goes to sleep as a two-time Golden Globe winner and dreams of being a three-time winner. He acknowledges the importance of awards, even though they may not ultimately fulfill him. The audience laughs and applauds his speech. The segment then transitions to the nominees for Best Motion Picture comedy, with The Big Short being one of them.” Read More
June 18th: Adyashanti, Rupert & John
“…fascinated by pure awareness since childhood and has encountered three teachers who have helped him delve deeper into this concept.

Awakening Mind – 1
Awakening is the recognition of our true nature, which is already fully awake and aware. It is not a mystical experience only available to a few, but rather it is available to everyone. Consciousness is the ultimate reality of the universe, and the next step in science is to say that consciousness is fundamental. Awakening or realizing awareness is like waking from a dream of our character in the play of life. Through our characters, we experience the world in all of its beauty and ugliness, but we can awaken from our limited character and directly experience our true nature. Read More
The Origins of Andalusian Mysticism
ChatGPT: Sufism, also known as Islamic mysticism, is a complex and diverse tradition that cannot be easily defined. While it is often associated with the Middle East, Sufism also developed in Andalusia, the southern part of the Iberian Peninsula, during the Middle Ages. This unique mystical tradition was distinct from the Sufism of the East and was influenced by neoplatonism and the Safa philosophy. Read More
Spinoza: The Most Hated Philosopher
Spinoza’s idea of the unity of all things is relevant today, as we are all one single thing that can only survive and thrive as one or not at all. The Eternal and infinite being we call God or nature necessarily acts as it does, and we are all part of this being. This means that we cannot but love our neighbors because we are them. Spinoza’s work may be difficult to understand, but it offers an important insight into our interconnectedness and the need for unity in order to survive on this planet. Read More

“The recording suggests that the nature of life is to play and not take oneself too seriously, as everyone is fundamentally the ultimate reality.”

Tantra and Nonduality
“… both Tantra and non-duality are about going beyond duality and recognizing that form arises within the formless. While Tantra may use physical practices as a gateway to the formless, there can be a danger of becoming attached to those practices. Non-duality, on the other hand, can sometimes lead to an avoidance or denial of form. Ultimately, both paths lead to a collapse of the separation between self and other, and an intimacy with all things.” Read More
Hijacked by the ‘me’
Thank you Stella (-; “Terrence’s beautifully clear, succinct, non spiritual guidance in this one to one conversation, begins with a logical search to see how the ‘me’ hijacks Presence Awareness. Once this is seen stirring happens and the ‘me’ collapses, lifting the veil to Awakening.” Read More
