Jim Newman's NON-DUALITY meetings share a mystery, a paradox. The paradox is that THIS, this appearance, isn't what it appears to be. It is and it isn't. It's no-thing being something. It's emptiness appearing as everything. It's unified appearing as divided or separated.
Within this apparent paradox arises an experience. That experience is, that this appearance is happening to 'me'. That experience is not paradoxical; it feels very real. There's no space, no room, no possibility for the reality, that 'this' isn't happening to ‚me’. That experience of duality is dissatisfying. It's uncomfortable. Out of that experience arises the need to bring about a wholeness, to cover up the feeling that what is, isn't complete, to make the feeling that it's not okay - okay. Out of that arises the need for good and bad and right and wrong. So this appearance then turns into ‚my life‘, and my life is the need to make 'this' better, 'this' good, to find out or to solve the problem of why I don't feel like it's okay, why I feel like something's wrong, why I feel like I need to seek, to find something else.

At 40:44 I burst into tears! I can’t stop crying! It’s been quite awhile since I’ve cried!? “Freedom paining” just blew me wide open! I’ve put my story onto pain! So Ram Dass was right? It’s ALL God in drag! Even pain! WoW! 🤯

If only, our stubborn minds can relax and comprehend the simplicity of what Jim is saying, there will be complete freedom, complete peace, an initial bursting forth of tears and perhaps uncontrollably laughter and then a profound feeling of happiness, satisfaction, astonishment. We would not be able to bear the joy as a result of switching out to our true nature, right here right now. I must die in order to live. Oh my God! There is none but You and I am You all this time (that I thought I was lost and then searched). I searched for you not knowing that I simple had to surrender. Oh Abraham, you showed us that we needed to sacrifice the thing we loved the most. I surely loved my own separate life and could not part with it. But oh, the exchange for this small life is so MUCH MORE!

I just laugh so hard everytime the resonance of the message happens and this interview cracked me! Ever since this message is heard, I cry and laugh and love way more than ever before in my life Thanks John and Jim for the wonderful conversation, love you
-
You're a great interviewer john.....you are actually listening.....this is a rare quality
-
I always enjoy the hopelessness in Jim's message. Great interview, thanks John. Cheers from Srilanka
-
At 12:03 is one of my favorite moments of this discussion. A beautiful silence where both individuals are okay to just be.
-
This is my all time favourite Jim Newman interview. That you for being a great interviewer . You really allowed Jim to get the message across
-
Jim is my favourite. Bang on. Great Resonance. Clarity.

Great interview 👍✨ It’s indeed so obvious that the fact that we can be dissatisfied and that we can be seeking for more or better is obviously the absolute proof of unconditional freedom If we would not be unconditionally free then we obviously would not be free to be disappointed or dissatisfied etc or to seek etc This unconditional freedom is obviously nothingness - the unspecified ‘that what already is’ - Nothing else then nothingness can be unconditionally free, no start no end Truly wonderful and so obvious ! There is nobody steering the ship 🛳👍 and better even ! there is or never was even a ship ! The ship is the illusionary entirely psychological - I Am - that obviously never ever was really real Thanks so much for this wonderful info I’m cooked 😅👍✨🤗 Wonderful! 🌺🙏

Wild. Exhilarating. Amazing. Freedom. No start or end. A continuous ride. It’s not continuous. That’s the dream of me. And I’m really in charge. So there’s nobody steering the ship. Already. And nothing needs to happen for that. This is actually nothing. Lovely conversation. Deep deep. Show me something that isn’t THIS. 👍
-
Such a rare treat- where both interviewer and interviewee are 'messaging' together
-
2:16 "There's actually no way to have a discussion about this."
-
I can't stop replaying this video!
-
Absolutely love Jim's way of speaking. You can just see people's minds grind to a halt after he says something. And my mind too! Brilliant
-
Wonderful, deep and profound message by Jim sir. I am forever grateful to Jim Newman for sharing this message. So well articulated and explained in simple language.This message is the best gift of my life.Thank you interviewer for uploading the video.
-
Super discussion on Nothing . What a relief. Fabulous John well done.
-
What an excellent interview John. Amazing how you (who is not there ;) 'steer the wheel' in asking questions, listening, reflecting, speaking, asking questions again. I loved your role in this conversation with Jim!
-
Jim's way of dismantling the delusion is mind blowing BOOM! Great conversation, thank you ❤
-
This is the best interview ever. Good grief.
-
Jim is a sort of end of the line kind of guy, it seems. I love his absolute no-nonse nihilism. Straight to the core.. lol.. he can finish an interview in 3 seconds flat and have an interviewer at a loss for words. lol
