Join Paul Dobson and author and nondual therapist Nic Higham as they explore the truth of #Nonduality, questioning the nature of our experience, self-inquiry, and meditation. They emphasize the illusion of separateness and the wholeness and completeness that exists within each individual. Dive into the concept of division and the opportunity to peel back the layers of belief to reveal the truth that was never tarnished.
Believing in the finite nature of the infinite leads to suffering and separation.
The experiencer and the experienced are not separate, and all objects are made of subjectivity.
Deep dives
The Play of Opposites: The Infinite and the Finite
The podcast explores how the play of opposites arises when thought is believed, leading to the idea that the infinite could be finite. It emphasizes that this play only exists in thought and not in truth. The speaker highlights the beauty and joy in this exploration but points out that suffering arises when we believe our ideas about ourselves and what this is more than our non-conceptual, felt knowing. The invitation is to remember the truth of what we are and recognize that we are already whole and complete.
The Essence of Experiencing and Authentic Identity
The episode delves into the essence of experiencing and authentic identity. It highlights that what you are is the space of experiencing, and the experiences that arise within you are made of you. The speaker emphasizes that there is no division between the experiencer and the experienced, and that all objects are made of subjectivity. The exploration encourages letting go of fixations and beliefs, recognizing that seeking is an experience of incompleteness, and realizing that you are undamaged and un-injured, already whole.
Recognizing the Nature of Seeking and Experiencing
The podcast discusses the nature of seeking and experiencing. It suggests looking into what seeking really is and exploring the nature of experiences. The speaker highlights that seeking arises within the field of experiencing and that the experiences themselves are made of the experiencing truth. The episode emphasizes that seeking does not require effort or trying, and that true wholeness is already present. It encourages discerning the nature of experiences and recognizing that the truth of what we are was never tarnished or broken.
