Being With Others

Our awareness in its natural state is clear and simple. There are moments when you hear a sound, and that’s it, you heard the sound, there’s nothing extra, you don’t have even thoughts about it. There’s a possibility of living in a type of awareness that is mostly that simple, even though thoughts are rolling through. We can’t stop thoughts, but each one disappears as soon as it arises. They all disappear, but the awareness itself stays clear.
