Episode notes
Presence Reveals Deeper Self
- Becoming aware of the present moment reveals the deeper dimension of who you are beyond the conditioned person.
- That awareness is the essence of liberation and is inseparable from stillness and self-awareness.
Pause Into Alert Stillness
- Pause into a brief alert stillness to sense the space of awareness itself rather than only its content.
- Practice noticing the small gap when thinking stops and let the arising self-awareness become present.
Awareness Is Self-Aware
- Awareness is not an object you observe because you are that awareness and it can become aware of itself.
- Realizing this dissolves subject-object separation into the arising of self-awareness.
