Nonduality: The Wholeness of Experience

Here's another episode of the nonduality podcast. What is nonduality? What is life? Who am I?  Our usual orientation is one of being a separate limited ego entity within a boundless universe, feeling very small and powerless, always craving a deep connection with the entirety of what is. We seek a way to heal an imagined divide through clinging and pushing away certain experiences.  &nbs...

Nonduality author and therapist Nic Higham speaks with co-host Paul Dobson about all things nonduality.    In his book, I Am That, Nisargadatta Maharaj says: "No thing in existence has a particular cause; the entire universe contributes to the existence of even the smallest thing; nothing could be as it is without the universe being what it is. When the source and ground of everythi...

Here’s part two of Paul’s conversation with nonduality author and teacher John Astin.   Our primary idea is of being separate from the whole of reality. We imagine we exist as independent creatures like waves imagining they are separate from the sea.   We’re searching to feel at home. Our habitual instinct, however, tells us, “This moment isn’t home. It doesn’t look or fee...

Paul Dobson speaks with nonduality author and teacher John Astin.    If we want to find wholeness, we have to look somewhere other than within our habitual perception of distinction and differentiation. We have to discover the nature of all beyond characterisation.    There’s always a relentless constancy, a fact of beingness, of the existence of everything no matter the descri...

Here's another episode of The Nonduality Podcast with author and nondual therapist Nic Higham and co-podcaster Paul Dobson.   If there is a non-dual all-encompassing reality, it must be here and now, no matter how this moment seems. If this profound truth is recognised, that there's one reality expressing itself unconditionally as all, the search ends. Though it may not comply with our fantasies,...

In this episode of The Nonduality Podcast, Paul Dobson speaks with Joan Tollifson. Joan says that what we call non-dual understanding, realization or awakening, is an acceptance of this moment. An acceptance of everything; including our human foibles, our opinions, even our moments of upset and resistance. It's about accepting more and more. Not as something we do, but as a natural outcome of reco...

In this episode, Paul Dobson is joined again by John Astin. Episode #39. Paul speaks with John Astin again. We live in a world in which there appears to be great certainty about everything, all the things we've grown accustomed to knowing the meaning of. The presumed objects and events of the world, and the world itself, often have the whiff of incompleteness, and we have a sense of lack. That's o...

Paul Dobson and nondual therapist Nic Higham talk about the radical inclusivity of effortless experiencing.  There is one infinite, indescribable, inconceivable reality, and we are that. This reality is full of nothing but itself and absolutely in love with itself. Incredibly, through the human perspective, we seem to have condensed ourselves down to tiny little stick figure ideas about ourse...

Nic Higham takes you through an exploration of present moment awareness https://nisargayoga.org/

Paul Dobson and nondual therapist Nic Higham talk about Finding Yourself Everywhere And Nowhere.   Consciousness inherits a conceptual framework through which to perceive and interact with itself. The mind seeks to try and resolve the conceptual with more concepts. We’ve taken ourselves to be the mind and its words. We’ve taken the words to be the truth. In spirituality, if we can even call it spi...

A nonduality meditation and inquiry with Nic Higham http://nisargayoga.com/

Paul Dobson speaks with nonduality author and teacher Joan Tollifson. The stories that the mind tells are just stories or thoughts. They’re never really true. We have a certain view, but we don’t really know anything. When we go into the sensory reality of anything, there is nothing solid there at all in the space of awareness. When you actually tune into the actuality of the body, it's not solid...

As ever in these nonduality meditations with Nic Higham, the invitation is to enquire into your direct experience. There is nothing to learn here, to impart to, transmit. No magic tricks. Only reality as it is. Only this moment, this presence as it is. When we enquire into this, we are not seeking understanding in terms of something the mind can grab hold of and own. We're simply resting into what...

The Nonduality Podcast with Paul Dobson and nondual therapist and coach Nic Higham from http://www.nisargayoga.org/ What is nonduality? There appear to be separate individual beings who have their own existence and who are separate from each other. The mind derives its knowledge from observation of the actual. However, knowledge itself is not actual. It’s nothing but a symbol of That which is beyo...

The Nonduality podcast with Nic Higham. Our guest is Bradley Bemis.  We explore the nondual awakening or enlightenment journey from dreaming, seeking, awakening, deepening to ceasing.  Most of us are living from our unquestioned assumptions until something happens in our experience that causes us to begin to question. We move from that place of unquestioned assumptions to acknowledging t...

The Nonduality Podcast with nonduality author and nondual therapist Nic Higham and Paul Dobson. There’s an idea in the spiritual search that our true Self is in some place far away. This moment is not good enough. It’s not there yet. We think, “I’m not there yet. I have to be good enough to be accepted into the realm of completeness.” What do we really know? All we have are symbols, a bunch of rep...

The Nonduality Podcast with Paul Dobson. In this episode, Paul speaks with John Astin. This is part 1. Our direct experience is revealing that this instant is in the most radical kind of flux, flow and fluidity. This is our experience from instant to instant. Our perceptions vanish as they are perceived. The arising of a perception is also its vanishing. If we look at it with some care and curiosi...
