Superpowered Mind with Clare Dimond

Exploring how the fear of something happening to the most precious people in our life means we miss out on true intimacy with them.

Continuing the look at fear, we explore more specifically the fear of harm to the body or death.

Exploring how the body will protect itself from physical danger and how the protection of the self identity is on its way out.

Exploring whether there is such a thing as a toxic person.

Exploring how the assumed heaven of having everything we could ever want is also the hell of losing it.

Exploring what to do with overwhelming sadness

Exploring how the honouring of the miracle of being is a natural implication of a deeper understanding of who we are.

Do we have power and control? Or are we being controlled? Or is something else entirely going on...

Exploring how competition can be an attempt to secure the self or an opportunity to see what is really true.

How needing to be liked is based on misunderstanding of self and other.

Exploring how the avoidance of suffering only serves to limit the immersion in life and reality.

Exploring how the understanding of who we are unveils the pure desire of life in form.

Exploring how the temporary relief from suffering keeps experience trapped in a vicious circle, while the relief of knowing who we really are is enormous and at the same time, playful and even funny.

Exploring how the identifiers of the 'I am' must be clung on to when there is insecurity or defence and how that has nothing to do with the beingness of who we are.

Exploring how the self that resists the thing, the voice that says the self must accept the thing and the thing itself are all the same.

Exploring how forgiveness is not the freedom we imagine it to be.

The idea that we are wearing distorting goggles is often used in conversations about how thought creates reality. That can lead to frustration and self blame as we try to without success to change reality. But what if that idea is taken the whole way to the realisation that the self IS the goggles...?

Exploring why unconditional love is not the same as being a doormat

Exploring how the attempt to not feel anger and the personalisation of it come from a misunderstanding of what is true.

Exploring what success really is.

Exploring the stages of human development in how the concepts of self, other and the world appear.

Exploring how behaviour will always be 'right' for whatever understanding of self and other it emerges from and how the only place of navigation is from the deepest inner knowing of completeness and love.

Exploring what is going on when we want other people's behaviour to change.

Exploring how the self believes it is what makes the decisions and dictates whether instructions will be obeyed or not. It never is.

Exploring how being offended reinforces the idea of a separate, insecure self or can reveal what is actually going on.

Exploring how resistance is a sign of confusion and not the navigating tool it is assumed to be.

Exploring what that question is really saying...

Exploring how jealousy can send us deeper into the illusion of self or indicate where authentic expression is veiled

Exploring how a period of confusion and lack of drive is a logical consequence of the falling away of the idea of a separate self.

Exploring how anything - including a conversation about oneness - can be used to separate out from the world. But when suffering is a sign to enquire, to get closer, to see what is real then all that happens is a deeper immersion into reality.

Exploring how the understanding that there is no other makes it impossible for lying or manipulation to occur.

Exploring how it could be possible that the self is the body, it is not even in it. The body appears within the self.

Why is it that often goals, desires or intentions are not met?

Exploring how only an understanding of who we and the other really are can end the mirrors-facing-each-other effect of defence and protection.

Exploring how transformative behavioural change can only come from a shift in understanding of self, other and reality.

Exploring how shame and embarrassment come from a misunderstanding that actions could be different and that the self idea needs to be protected

Exploring why solipsism - the idea that nothing exists outside of my perception - cannot be true and what we are beyond the narrative of separation.

What happens with the realisation that there is no separate individual and no objective reality? Do people, things and places disappear?

Exploring how the stand of 'I am right' is a brittle, fragile platform that must be defended at all costs and how it can give way to the organic, living, authentic voice that is our true nature.

Looking at the realisation that our true essence is unconditional and impersonal love.

Exploring how a misunderstanding of what the self is, is a roller coaster swinging between rejection and approval.

Exploring how this understanding changes everything... for no one.

Exploring how trying to build up the self in order to be confident just reinforces the illusion that the self is in control of anything...

Exploring how the understanding of cause and effect changes as the self is explored.

Exploring why the apparent form of life is never any indication of how easy it is.

Exploring how the body will respond automatically to any physical situation. The defence of the self identity though is something else altogether.

Exploring how to navigate a constantly changing world

Exploring how vigilance over experience, behaviour, thought and emotions is an attempt to secure the self. And how beneath it, all there is is the open presence and honouring of all form.

Exploring three ways reality of self and other appears: 1. as unquestioned objective truth 2. the other is created by MY thoughts and beliefs 3. there is no self or other - both are creations of the same momentary understanding

Often people say 'OK fine it's all a dream or a film but how do I make it a better dream or a film in which I am happier and more fulfilled?' The answer is always, only, ever to see what the dream character and the dream really are.
