Episode notes
Misunderstood Nature of Mind
- Most people misunderstand or fail to understand the true nature of mind.
- This ignorance causes suffering as they wander in rebirth cycles unaware of their own mind's nature.
Entering Intrinsic Awareness
- Enter intrinsic awareness by observing thoughts as clear and empty without construction.
- Recognize present moment awareness as ordinary, lucid, and without an observer, revealing pure awareness itself.
Nature of Self-Awareness and Thoughts
- Your immediate self-awareness is unfabricated and self-originated with no cause thinking it.
- Thoughts arise and liberate simultaneously, so meditation and awareness are not separate.
