In today's meditation we will do few experiments,
Few experiments in our awareness,
To our awareness like an honest scientist and if you see there is nothing else that we have that we can truly experiment on than our own experience.
All we have is experience.
So we are best suited to do this experiment on our experience and we are the only person who can do experiment on our experience.
So with that in mind truly become aware of what is right now and remain one with this knowing sense,
Awareness and know that you are here.
I would also like to now ask you a question,
When we say I am here,
When you say I am here,
Always in this knowing space of awareness,
Never there.
So in this world of awareness,
In this world of our experiment,
Imagine yourself reaching to the highest peak on the earth,
Mount Everest and in language we would say it's there,
It's outside.
But when you are there,
When you are on the peak of Mount Everest and if you see from the lens of your awareness,
Wouldn't you say that I am here?
So experientially you are never there,
It's always here.
Now is it true?
Like an honest scientist ask yourself that when or if you get to go to the moon and then you close your eyes at the moon,
Where would you be?
Would you not be here?
Is this a trivial understanding that you are always here?
All our concepts of being there,
Different location,
Experiencing in experiential way,
So you are always here.
Now imagine 10 days,
20 days down a track in future sometime,
Go to the place that you love the most.
So you have been to that place and you have closed your eyes and you know that you will be here,
Even at that place you will be here in this awareness,
As this awareness.
But what would be the time,
What would be the time when you are there?
Always be this now.
Is it true?
So let's assess as a true scientist the nature of time,
The nature of now,
The nature of past and future and go back to any memory,
Any happy memory or any mediocre memory and memories are by definition from past.
So visit that memory and see if that memory takes you to the past time or does it take you to still here in this now?
So there is no experiential way you can visit your past,
It's always through memory and memory is always now.
See if this is true in your experience,
Aren't all memories taking place in this now,
In this here?
Be vigilant,
Strain or pay excessive effort to know this.
So remain in light knowing awareness,
Remain at ease in your laboratory and ask yourself what is the nature of my memory?
Does it take me to the past or am I always here in this now?
Even when I am reliving my memory,
Very intensely reliving my memory,
I'm still always here in this now and by now you know that that's probably the same phenomenon with the future.
So go back to your very preferred dream future,
Go to that dream that you wish to achieve,
Very experientially become that person you want to be,
Go to that location you want to visit,
Be with that person you want to see in your experiment,
In your imagination,
Go there.
We hope that this dream come true for you in future but when that is true for you in future,
What time would that be?
Would that be some different time or would that be this now?
So is it true to say that experientially you have never experienced anything but now?
Is it true to say that you have never experienced anything but this now?
You could never experience anything but this now?
Is it true?
Ask your scientist self,
Ask your awareness,
Not always here,
Always perpetually situated in this now.
If so,
Isn't my concept of time,
Time that seem to be travelling from past to future in one horizontal line,
That's how I see time,
Isn't that concept questionable?
Ask your scientist self that question because a busy scientist has a lot more questions to explore,
So let go that and become the witness again,
The first experiment again.
Become witness of all that is taking place in your awareness.
Your scientist self has experimented on several things but now the scientist self is resting,
Resting in this awareness of knowing,
Being but not paying any effort,
Not trying to prove or disprove anything,
Still very happy here in this awareness,
Just like this,
Nothing special is taking place,
You are at ease.
