How To Find Your Purpose | Awakening With Russell

do you need to find your purpose of course you do you need to find your purpose in this crazy confusing baffling life and i've got a meditation that says it's going to help you do that if you're not watching this on my side's channel awakening with russell brand over on youtube pop over there now and subscribe to it and if you're not yet a subscriber to luminary and my guided meditation podcast above the noise subscribe to that too this meditation is a simple one in some ways and it was inspired by a request by dave brown who said i need to find my purpose i think he asked me that on instagram or twitter or one of them i can't remember which one it was one of them and i want to help you find your purpose dave brown and it's not just you is it so many of us have tried to find purpose in the context provided to us by a commercialized and capitalized system that sees us really as i learned recently when discussing free market economics is primarily the custodian of our own labor and our role in life to simply distribute that labor to one of the many agents of labour that exist in the world but what if you believe in a higher purpose something higher than just making money the pursuit of fortune and fame god knows i was trapped in that little world for long enough well it was the spiritual life that has liberated me from those illusions temporarily i go in and out you know but it's stuff like this that really helps me so let me talk you through how to do this meditation we'll do it together it's going to take us about five minutes it's pretty straightforward you sit in what's called easy pose that's just cross-legged on your bum you might put a cushion down to be more comfy put your left hand in your right hand put them in your lap sit nicely bolt upright like an obedient little buddha waiting instructions from the limitless now the trickiest thing about this little meditation to find your purpose presumably plumbing inaccessible depths of your fundamental energy inaccessible when you live hypnotized by the illusion of modern life is you have to be able to chant this little chant on one breath waheguru waheguru guru wahey jio you have to do that no eight times that on one breath that's gonna be tough isn't it even for a person who does a lot of wim hof stuff like me and i've been doing it every day for a while and it's really it's helping me man so look let's let's see if we can do it now plus the counting is hard see what that will do to you it means you've got to concentrate you've got to be present with your breath and like those of you and believe me i've been on this side of the fence before i think do one you pillock do me a favor i feel like well if your life are doing anything like that to your consciousness if you spend all your time staring at a screen or worrying about whether or not someone loves you or fretting about stuff when are you ever going to access these potent energetic forces that go to work in your body consider this obvious truth you were once two cells and from there some invisible intelligence grew you into this now i don't want to sort of woohoo if i biology but it seems to me there's some interesting energetic forces at work that can do that to a cell some intelligence is playing its part some higher force operating in deep time as robert mcfarlane forthcoming guest and under the skin would call it i.e we operate within a very limited understanding of time because of our own entropy all right atrophy anyway listen let's try this together now as with all kundalini you start up with that little mantra don't you ong the morgue or dave no more we repeat that three times and we finish it with three sarg noms and in between that we're going to be doing the waheguru waheguru waheguru jio eight times and i'm gonna have to cancel can't count it we'll try it together for a free minute shall we because it's a it's a big ask it says here you can do it up to 11 minutes if you're a superstar now remember the basics sit nice and comfy left hand in right hand thumb tips touching eyes closed does it say you put your eyes anywhere no all right so let's start in with the tuning signal checking with how you feel now and then how you feel after you will feel different okay [Music] oh oh [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music] you [Music] [Music] yo [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you no no hmm these exercises change your conscious experience as always i always feel well does it specifically change it in terms of purpose for example as stated in this case what i could say is that i have a different kind of clarity and i feel more seated in my awareness more fixed to my awareness than to the phenomena within my awareness i feel like if i did that every day if i did it a lot and i was doing it expressly with the with the intention of honing in on my purpose in life it would have an impact most of us are irresponsible with how we treat our consciousness the kind of information we let in and the kind of self-talk that we engage in we pick up sort of all sorts of bad habits we have no structure no discipline i'm not good enough i'm worthless i always do that i can never remember anything i've never been very good at spelling i'm not just no good in relationships i don't know i'm scared of dogs programming yourself all the time this is a process of reprogramming you can of course criticize and even dismiss the paraphernalia or the specifics of these methods what do you mean is that going to make any bloody difference you know that's an easy attitude to have so i suppose before embarking on this ask yourself a critical question am i happy with who i am am i happy with how my life is going am i happy with the state in the world am i the person that i believe i was intended to be or have i become caught in the currents and tides of a culture that does not hold me in a very high regard it's likely that the latter is true because that's what culture does to you let me know what other things you'd like to see me do subscribe to the awakening channel it helps me if you subscribe to it join my mailing list and if you can subscribe to luminary where i do structured guided meditations regularly weekly then do that otherwise please continue to enjoy this free content and evolve yourself thanks
