Welcome to today's meditation.

Let your experience unfold as it is unfolding.

Let your attention be free,

Free to go wherever it is going.

Maybe it is seeing something,

Hearing,

Feeling,

Thinking.

Doesn't matter.

Let it be free.

As you unhook your attention from any compulsion,

You will suddenly notice that you are listening to my words.

Maybe in the pauses you are feeling a tingling in your left foot.

And suddenly you hear my words again and your attention is moving from perceptions to thoughts.

Again to some bodily sensations,

To some feelings.

Unrestrained,

Without stopping,

The experience is unfolding.

Just like my words are coming to you effortlessly.

There is no effort in pulling my words to you.

They just come to you.

The understanding of these words is also effortlessly happening.

Dozens of thoughts are popping in and out.

Some stick,

Some move on.

Eventually everything moves on.

Try not to push anything away.

Try not to grab at anything.

Let everything come one by one and let everything go.

Notice the quality of this watching.

What do you discover about yourself?

What do you discover about yourself when you are not caught up with anything that is unfolding?

And recognize that we are not manipulating anything about our experience.

We are just not indulging in it.

There is not a slightest desire to change anything.

Nothing is a problem.

As everything is coming and going,

You might find yourself in a pocket.

In this deep embrace.

Like in a womb,

Tightly held,

Safe.

Home.

Innocence.

The place that was your home before you learned to grab,

To reject,

To run behind things.

Familiarize yourself as just being you without any agenda.

Everything coming and everything going.

The pauses are silence.

Silence and you are the witness.

While everything comes and goes,

You remain here.

You don't come and you don't go.

This innocence of yourself is your natural state.

Is what is being revealed by this meditation.

We are not creating it.

As the layers of superimposition,

Preferences,

Likes,

Dislikes are paused,

You shine.

Let go of the doing.

Let go of the wanting.

And find yourself as the witness.

And when you are ready,

Gently return to this room that you are in.

And carry this innocence and untouchability with you.

Thank you.
