The Nature of Awakening
Awakening is less about striving for a specific moment or status and more about sincere engagement with the present experience. An obsession with defining oneself as awakened or not can hinder genuine practice and understanding. Instead, focusing on vulnerabilities and momentary experiences allows deeper realizations to unfold naturally. By letting go of preconceived notions about what awakening should look like, individuals create space for insights to arise in the here and now.
