COURSE

Seeds Of Presence

With Lluis Martinez Ten

This course is designed to help you delve deeper into the simple, relaxed, and natural presence that you truly are. I have put together a series of meditations and spontaneous lessons in which we will go deep into the simplicity of just being, into the inner recognition of yourself as a presence beyond mental identity. This is a course to practice carefully and to return to in order to continue deepening into each of the lessons. I hope this course brings you lightness and inner clarity in your daily life. Sending you a big hug! Lluís

Lesson 1

Introduction

In this introduction, we will learn what the course is about and how to get the most out of it. We will look at the best way to practice each of the meditations and practices. Enjoy the course. Warm regards!

Lesson 2

Meditation: The Simplicity Of “Being Alive"

There is something simpler than “being alive.” The simplicity of acknowledging that your body is alive, that you exist, that breathing happens on its own… It brings a great lightness to our life experience. In this meditation, we will delv e deeper into this simple awareness. Enjoy the practice. Warm regards.

Lesson 3

Meditation: “Let The Moment Be As It Is”

In this lesson, we are going to engage in a very powerful practice. Allow whatever is happening (internally and externally) to happen. This will give you a great deal of freedom because you will gradually let go of the feeling that you need to control and direct what is happening. This is a lifelong practice, so be patient. Celebrate even the smallest achievements.

Lesson 4

Meditation "The Beauty Of Your Own Being"

This is a wonderful lesson. Simply allow yourself to recognize the beauty of your existence, value every tiny thing that happens within you, and admire its beauty... The breath, any sensation in the body, how the 5 senses operate, the simple presence that expresses itself through you... Enjoy the simple and natural within you.

Lesson 5

Give Self-Acknowledgment The Importance It Deserves

This lesson is very brief but very important. Giving priority to internal recognition in your life is essential for achieving results. When this is truly important to you, you take advantage of any circumstance to practice what you have learned. And since teaching is very present in your life, integration is easier.

Lesson 6

The Option That Always Goes Unnoticed

How important it is to apply this lesson in our lives! No matter what happens, there is always time to stop, feel, and make a decision from an inner silence. When you're in a hurry, try the experiment of noticing how your body moves quickly, your mind is agitated, but there's also something happening within you that is calm, that is not moving fast and is not agitated...

Lesson 7

Meditation "Embracing You In Acceptance"

This is a lesson we should practice every day. Embracing ourselves internally with deep respect, in acceptance, openness, and cultivating a kind perspective toward our limitations as a person. Enjoy this embrace, this loving yourself unconditionally.

Lesson 8

Meditation "Looking Within"

In this meditation, we are going to practice a very simple way to begin directing our attention toward the inner space. It is important that this "inner gaze" is simple, effortless, and natural. We are not trying to reach any state; we are recognizing what is already here naturally. Enjoy it. Big hug!

Lesson 9

Meditation "Letting Go, Yielding, Releasing"

How important it is to delve deeper and become a true master in the art of yielding, letting go, stopping doing, to experience yourself more as a "being that exists" instead of a "person that does." This will give a completely different dimension to your life experience.

Lesson 10

Meditation "Your Power As Presence"

Realizing the immense power we have as a presence is fundamental to recognizing our true nature. That power allows us to live according to our true position in relation to the mind and thus be able to have a more intelligent and healthy relationship with it. Are you in your mind? The person who is trying? Or the presence that is aware of how the person tries to get to the presence?

Lesson 11

The Nature Of Attention

In this lesson, I share a spontaneous response to a question that a student asked me some time ago. In it, I delve into our relationship with attention and the best way to interact with that very important tool in our lives. In our practice, it is very useful to place attention on the breath and body sensations, but in this lesson, I invite you to go a little bit further and ask yourself Who are you, the one who is aware how the attention moves?

Lesson 12

Meditation "Simplicity And Presence"

Simplicity and presence are synonyms. When we talk about presence, we refer to this simplicity, clear, direct, and light, that is already happening within you, not as "something else" but as yourself. We are going to practice in this meditation this simple yet very profound recognition. I hope you enjoy it and that it helps you in your process. Big hug!

Lesson 13

Incorporating Simplicity Into Your Life

This is a very simple but very powerful lesson. It is taken from a live session and will help us understand how we bring too much complication into our lives and how to start incorporating that simplicity, which does us so much good internally.

Lesson 14

Meditation "Letting Go Of The Need For Control"

Letting go of the need for control that arises unconsciously in our minds is one of the things that will bring the most internal freedom to your life. In this meditation, we will delve into this act of trust, this intention to yield and let life take charge of this moment...

Lesson 15

Meditation "The Perfection That You Already Are"

It is always a good time to realize this in us, which is already perfect by nature, which simply is, complete, simple, and fulfilled. In this meditation, we are going to open ourselves to feeling, not what we want to become or achieve, but what is already happening here, in me (as myself) that is already everything it needs to be.

Lesson 16

Meditation "Nothing To Do, Nothing To Become"

This is a perfect practice to combine with the previous lesson. Allow yourself not to seek the next moment, let go of the next goal, and relax in the feeling of not having to arrive anywhere... There is so much space and so much fullness there...

Lesson 17

Let Attention Move

This exercise is the foundation of true inner freedom. As we have seen in previous lessons, trying to control attention will bring a lot of tension to your practice. Let it move when the silence begins in the lesson, and a few minutes later, open yourself to feeling when the music starts to play. Enjoy it!

Lesson 18

Meditation "Simplicity, Effortless Ease"

Effort is a positive thing, and throughout our lives, it has given us valuable lessons. But in internal recognition, "trying too hard" won't help us. Since we are not creating something, but rather recognizing what is already here, we can only do it with ease and simplicity.

Lesson 19

Meditation "Deepening In The "Giving In "

This is a practice of deepening in yielding, letting go, and allowing. Yielding is not a "doing," you can't do it... It's a "not doing"... There is no intention, no direction, no objective... That's "doing"... So just effortless being....

Lesson 20

Meditation "Living The Simplicity That Is Already Here"

I always like to say that the most profound internal change a human being can make is to stop "thinking about their life" and start "feeling their life." Thinking brings complexity and density, while feeling (from a place of presence) brings lightness, clarity, and peace.

Lesson 21

Meditation "Loving Yourself from Presence"

Loving yourself is always the answer to any doubt or limitation you feel. If you can't be present, love yourself; if you can't calm down, love yourself; if you're too nervous, love yourself... And if you are unable to love yourself, love also that limitation in you, or at least be kind to yourself. Loving yourself is always the answer. I love you!
