Deep dives
What is non-dual awareness?
Non-dual awareness refers to the core of consciousness where there is no duality or separation between the subject and the object of meditation. It recognizes that all conscious experiences arise within awareness itself, which is formless and empty of inherent content. In non-dual awareness, the construct of separation is seen as a fabrication, and there is an understanding that everything is interconnected. This approach involves recognizing and returning to this non-dual nature of awareness through certain pointers and practices.
