Exploring Non-Duality with Bradley Bemis

Exploring Non-Duality with Bradley Bemis

Non-Duality is nothing, yet it is everything.  It is the encompassing idea of the world beyond time, form, words, people, structure, and religion.  It is life itself.  In reality, it cannot even be discussed using words or pictures, because once it is,  it is removed from it’s essence (non-form) and is constricted to the world of form.  It can only be experienced, and it is a state in which only very few on this planet have ever fully encompassed.  Using words minimizes what it actually is.  Is-ness is what it is.  Beingness is what it is.  It is the heart and center of what everything is – eternal, unmoved, unchanged and timeless.  When ego has dissolved, all that is left is the pristine state of Life itself.  It is the allness, fullness, everythingness, and nothingness – divinity itself.

It could be said that nothing in life is more crucial to understand and ultimately experience.  Yet, paradoxially, there is nothing to experience because you are already that, experiencing itself.  And while these may seem like abstract ideas, how is it is really possible to talk about the Source of Life using words?  Yet, in this chat, we will try to tackle some of these ideas.

The mind thinks only in duality.  Duality is what separates all of us from each other and ultimately from the Source of Life.  Us vs them, good vs bad, right vs wrong, better vs worse are all dualities.  Most of us live in the stories of our own experience of duality.  Transcending duality is the key to our full experience of consciousness.

Bradley had what he calls an awakening and life has never been the same since.  He talks about this and how it changed everything for him.  I encourage you to listen with open ears.  If you notice yourself judging something you hear (which is a duality), try to set your judgments free. Listen with ears and an understanding that is simply backed by Love and Peace, which is what you are.  Judgments only get in the way of us from experiencing the fullness of Life.
