Through captivating discussions with philosophers, spiritual leaders, and psychologists, we dive deep into the concept of self-identity and the eternal quest for self-understanding. Is our identity merely a construct of our experiences and memories? Or is there a timeless self, an observer that remains constant amidst life's ever-changing tides?

We explore ancient wisdom from various cultures and modern insights from neuroscience to piece together the mosaic of human identity. Through powerful personal stories, we hear from individuals who've undergone radical transformations, from near-death experiences to spiritual awakenings, revealing glimpses of who we might truly be beneath the surface.

Listeners are invited to participate in guided reflections, to peel away the external layers, challenge long-held beliefs, and confront the deepest question of existence.

Join us in this transcendental exploration, as we tread the path of self-discovery, challenging perceptions, and unlocking the mystery of the self. By asking "Who Are You Really?", you're taking the first step towards a profound understanding that might just reshape your entire perspective on life.

[00:00:01] Welcome, welcome, welcome to your wish fulfilled. [00:00:07] This is a magical podcast about experiencing your higher self and manifesting from a place of mastery and ease. [00:00:22] I'm Michael McIntosh and I'm here in Kauai on the north shore, and it's just magical, feeling so wonderful. I've manifested so many beautiful things in my life and I just, you know, really want to give back. And so this podcast is just an opportunity to share some of the things that have helped me to, you know, create multiple million dollars in my businesses and create amazing life and do what I love and have living beautiful places and all these things. But really what I've realized is that it's all about the feelings, it's all about the vibrations. [00:01:02] And today we're diving into something very fundamental that a lot of people don't really talk about, don't think about. So here we are, human beings running around, what's going on, we want all these things, we're doing all this stuff, right? There's a whole world out there, there's all these shows and all these podcasts, and it's just endless, endless, endless to do lists, right? Great, so we want all these things, we're involved in all this stuff. [00:01:30] Who are we? [00:01:32] Who are we? [00:01:34] Who is it that wants all these things? Who is it that's doing everything? [00:01:47] So of course we can look in the mirror and we can say, oh look, that's my face over there, that's me, right? That's my name. You got your card, it's got your name on your card, on your license. [00:02:01] Is that who we are? [00:02:03] This physical body that keeps getting older? Is that who we are, the name? We didn't come up with that. And even if we changed it, we're learning from somewhere, right? It's just a word. [00:02:17] We're not our age because that constantly is changing. [00:02:23] Yeah, people could say, oh, I'm my nationality, I'm my race, I'm my culture. Well, yeah, that's given to you by your parents and society. [00:02:33] So there's all these labels, we can label ourselves in so many different ways, but as you know from no doubt your own explorations and studies in deeper things, that when you go back, back, back, we realise we are the consciousness, we are the spiritual guest, spiritual being who is experiencing being in this body, in this world. [00:03:23] And there's an interesting discussion about whether the soul is in the body, whether we're in the body, or whether in fact the body is in us. [00:03:35] Because all we really know is our own subjective experience. [00:03:43] And where do we experience everything. So right now, look around you. Wherever you are, look around. [00:03:50] Notice the sounds. You're hearing my voice. [00:03:56] Just look around. What do you see? What do you hear? What do you smell? What do you taste? [00:04:03] What do you feel? [00:04:08] Just tune into it for a moment. [00:04:16] And as you do, just notice. From where are you experiencing all of these sensations? [00:04:48] When you step back to who is experiencing this? Where are you experiencing everything? [00:05:00] You start to realize that what you're experiencing isn't actually the outside world. [00:05:09] The outside world, the universe, if you like, is made out of wavelengths, vibrations, frequencies, different frequencies. [00:05:19] And they are interpreted through the senses. Seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching. [00:05:29] Those senses then deliver these electric messages into our brain and through the senses. And then they get interpreted in the mind, in consciousness. [00:05:47] So you are actually experiencing everything and hearing all of these things inside yourself, inside the light, inside of consciousness, inside of your soul. [00:06:09] So you're not actually experiencing really the outside world as it is. You're experiencing your own personal, unique, subjective interpretation of everything. [00:06:24] So who is this being who is experiencing all these things? [00:06:31] Just look within. [00:06:39] Who is here right now having this experience? [00:06:44] Because you're not just your body. [00:06:55] There is a presence, a very relaxed, witnessing observer. [00:07:07] And that observer that you are that consciousness in that space, in your home, in your seat of the soul. You're completely relaxed, just watching it all. [00:07:49] So if you notice, there's like this ego mind that wants to run around getting things. And then if you step backwards within yourself, deeper, you'll find yourself, your real self, your higher self. [00:08:08] And you are made of good feelings. You're literally made of energy and good vibrations. Good vibrations. Not bad vibrations, good vibrations. [00:08:24] You're made of light. You're made of peace. [00:08:32] It's not a physical substance. It's an energetic substance, immortal vibration. [00:08:40] You can't be cut, burned, drowned, dried out. [00:08:47] This is on another scale. Nothing in the physical universe can affect you. [00:08:54] And you are made of constant peace, constant light, constant love and constant bliss. [00:09:16] You're made of it. [00:09:22] It's there. It's here. It's here right now. [00:09:28] It's not some outside thing. [00:09:31] You are that. [00:09:54] And so what we're seeking outside really is what we are. And a lot of people have heard about this, but it's time to actually go into the feeling, go into the experience. [00:10:14] And for that, what we do is we step back. It's almost like dropping deeper and deeper into peace that's already here. [00:10:29] If you've ever gone into the ocean or you go swimming in a deep swimming pool and you let yourself kind of sink down, and you can look up. All the noise of the world kind of fades away, and you kind of drop down, settle down and let go. [00:11:04] And in that space, everything is quiet and calm and relaxed. [00:11:13] So beautiful. [00:11:36] So this is something to dive into deeper and deeper. [00:11:42] Who am I? [00:11:50] Just ask yourself this question on a regular basis. Hang on a minute. Who am I? [00:12:00] And remember, I am this eternal being. That's like a point of light. Consciousness is like a tiny, tiny, tiny immortal being. Immortal star. [00:12:15] It's not really. We're not really an immortal star, but it's about as close as you can get. Tiny point of light, infinitely small, smaller than an atom. [00:12:32] And inside of you is all the good vibrations. [00:12:38] That little being, that tiny point of light is the being that is thinking the thoughts, running around, moving the body around, doing all the things. [00:12:50] That is the magic key to unlock everything. [00:12:55] When you come into the feeling of who I am, then you've already attained everything. [00:13:09] So you can ask, who am I? I'm this point of light. [00:13:17] And the more you experience this, the more you contemplate this, the more you practice this. It goes from a nice idea. Intellectually, we can have a spiritual ego about knowing these things. Oh, I'm so clever. I know I'm a spiritual being, but that's not actually going to be very much use to us. We want to go. All right. Who am I, and what is my natural state of being? Let me experience coming into that deep, deep, deep silence, deep peace, deep sense of fullness, just melting and relaxing. [00:13:59] Just a point of light melting and relaxing back into that peace. [00:14:18] Isn't that wonderful? [00:14:23] Ah, yes. [00:14:27] So we can take this deeper in another session, but just start asking, who am I really? [00:14:37] And what am I made of? Made of such good feelings. [00:14:42] And you access those feeling states by first letting go of what you're not. I'm not. Not this body, not this person. I'm not this character. I'm not this age. I'm not this name. [00:14:58] I'm not this problem. [00:15:00] I'm not labeled by this role that I played for this person, in this world, in this thing. [00:15:07] I'm not any of those things. Just let it go and just be a point of light where you've attained everything. [00:15:22] This is an ongoing, lifelong practice, and it starts with just knowing about it and then asking, who am I? And then coming into that awareness again and again and again. [00:15:35] And the more you do it, the deeper it goes, the more wonderful you feel. [00:15:41] And then you can come back into your seat of power, where you can manifest and create and enjoy your life, alright? So stay in this consciousness. Enjoy this consciousness. [00:16:02] Remember you're safe and secure and free. [00:16:08] So sending you many blessings, lots of love. Have a beautiful day in the awareness that you are that wonderful light, you are safe, you are free, you are immortal, you're never gonna die, you're gonna always live. [00:16:36] And life is here to be cherished and enjoyed. [00:16:43] Have a beautiful day. Many, many, many blessings.
