Presence Is Our Timeless Being
- Presence or the now points to our timeless being rather than a mental object.
- Jean Klein says we cannot represent it because we already are it.
Use 'Who Am I?' As A Returning Point
- Cultivate maturity by knowing what you are not before seeking what you are.
- Use the question 'Who am I?' to return to your starting point and forefeeling of being.

- Asking 'Who am I?' leads into a state of not knowing that clears mental representations.
- In that open waiting without expectation the living answer arises.
