This is a recording of a Live Q & A which has been edited for clarity, length, and helpfulness. We discussed how relaxation and tension apply to the process of Awakening and how to release blocks. A participant asked for prespective on experiencing herself as "nothing". Others asked about negative thoughts in meditation, can we be dealing with feelings we have absorbed from others rather than created ourselves, etc.

To a seeker, Ramana said, "Before you ask out 'your life', find out who 'You' are." Good advice. In this podcast we place our attention on what we are. What is always here and remains when everything goes? We place our attention on Awareness or our "Buddha nature". It is like a rainbow and is experienced beyond creation as a full nothing and, in creation, as Light, Love, Peace, Happiness, Joy, etc. We place our attention on Awareness so that we can experience our Selves rather than just understand our Selves. We talk about why some experience them Selves as Peace while others as Love, or Joy or Happiness or All. Though not the focus, we talk briefly about how to release what distracts and blocks us and why. We also note that much more information on releasing and the whole process of awakening is available for free on this platform. All podcasts stand on their own yet each rests on those before. Best to start at number 1 and move forward unless you find a title compelling now.

There can be no ultimate joy living a life that is false and deluded. Therefore, let's see clearly what we are not. Knowing what we are not, we can, also, more easily experience what we are. Let's let go of what we are not and enjoy the radiant Peace, Love and Joy of who we are. From contemplation 2 on my website, www.williamecooper.wordpress.com

This is a recording of a Live Q & A which has been edited for clarity, length, and helpfulness. We discuss that so many are suffering these days, how to melt the obstacles that block our happiness, daily consistency in taking baby steps, the fear of death, past lives, and that it's ok to modify spiritual practices.

Meditation, exercise, nutrition, yoga, psychotherapy, energy work, philosophy, etc all can be important in our awakening process. Yet seeing clearly can melt the delusions that may be causing much of our problems. When I see that the deadly cobra in my room is actually only a rope all of my issues regarding that "deadly" event melt away quickly. No psychotropic drugs or psychotherapy needed for my previous dread and anxiety. No meditation, no philosophy, nothing is needed. All done. While all of the above can be vital at different times, "To See Is To Be Free." From my contemplation number 1 on my website, www.williamecooper.wordpress.com

In this recorded live Q & A we discussed the 3 steps in letting go of That which keeps us from Awakening and enjoying life fully, What happened when Jesus appeared to William, question about Catholic guilt and how to let it go and know Jesus as a friend. A mother asked if her awakening could help her troubled child. Lots more as well.

Trying to control life is exhausting. Longchenpa, the ancient Tibetan Dzogchen masters' suggestion? "Leave it as it is and rest the weary heart and mind." Sound good for today?

If we lived in a dark world that was without light we might try to cope and understand through philosophy, science, relationships, psychotherapy, thinking, emoting, talking, etc. Yet nothing would help us all as much as a single person lighting a candle.

In this Q & A somebody asks why their Blocks are not dissolving in meditation, they are afraid of Christianity, want to talk to angels. We also talk about letting go in general and the importance of trust and how to experience trust. Another asks if they have to experience their negative stories in order to let them go. Etc.

You are Happiness (Being) right now and always. Nothing to do but enjoy. Yet we often feel blocked from our Selves by our troubles. We develop preferences to protect us from being triggered and feeling our repressed pain blockages. Our life becomes small. What to do? Let's do the opposite repression. When we become triggered or feel our tensions or pain in anyway, just relax and let it flow. The pain will come up, release its energy and dissipate....gone. As more and more troubles release you become clearer and can feel and experience your innate Joy once again. Who would you be without your troubles? This "Relaxing into Happiness" Practice may be all you need. It is simple yet profound. If you would like to explore this practice more deeply you can listen to any or all of my previous podcasts, "Awakening Together, Relaxing into Happiness". They are thorough and very good. I recommend starting with number one. Also Michael Singer's books, "Untethered Soul", "The Surrender Experiment", and "Living Untethered" are all fun, easy, deep and so worth your while. His free recorded talks on the Temple of the Universe site are excellent as well.

In this dynamic Q & A we discussed the relationship between trust and clarity, meditation, "Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?". Another asked, now that she experiences unfathomable joy why does she feel like shutting down as she did when experiencing negative emotions? Another asked
how to cope with anger?

A beginning meditator is working her way through these podcasts starting at 1, the introduction, and moving forward. She wrote in asking how to stop her thoughts and her mind from roaming and how to stay in the present?

Great Q & A! We discussed Awakening, How to Release into Clarity, Addiction, Forgiveness, What is Source, Some good Teachers and Radiant Beings, Living with and loving Narcissistic family members, etc. Though I am a licensed Psychotherapist, none of these podcasts are psychotherapy or a substitute for psychotherapy. They are meant to be helpful on your spiritual path. If you ever suspect you need a psychotherapist, please reach out to one. Often they offer a free first consultation to see what might be helpful to you.

Great Q & A! Your Being is Always shining as Love, Peace, and Fulfillment. Sometimes we are either too distracted or possibly too blocked by our repressed pain to experience our Selves. "I'm Awakened" and don't want to be entangled by too much information. What to do? "I live with a Narcissist." Etc....

In this live Q & A we discussed resting in our ever present radiance without the need to jump out of our center. We often can become twisted and unhappy when we are lost in tasks beyond our skill levels. What does "Being in the Now" really mean? In the "Now" with an active mind? Being completely open and flowing with all emotions. What is the relation of connection to Peace and Well Being. What are we to do in life? Losing the fear of panic attacks. Etc.
