CAN AWARENESS BE TAUGHT?
Awareness – that which is aware only of itself – is not a personal experience in time and space. In reality, ultimately, there is no ‘person’, no knower. No teacher and no teaching other than what is. After all is read, said and done, the best ‘teacher’ is silence.
“Insight is not in the stream” J Krishnamurti
In resting in an openly simple silence – like watching from the shore of a stream – one is free to let the flow of all the known ‘normal’ thoughts and sensations, distractions, beliefs, conflicts and confused feelings gently pass, come and go. In that welcoming, there’s a spacious invitation to allow one’s inner, wordless, non-personal being to present; to directly resonate and commune with, and as, awareness-aware-of-awareness; to allow the unknown, the timeless, to present and to transform one from knowing into simply being. 🙂
