You Find a comfortable seat.
And keeping the eyes comfortably open or gently closed as you wish.
Bring your awareness to the sense of I am.
The feeling of knowing that you are here now.
What is that part of you that is aware of these words?
Aware of what you are feeling?
Aware of what you are seeing or not seeing?
And stabilize your awareness in the sense of I am.
And whenever the mind wanders away into this or that past or future describing or labeling.
This brings it back to the simplicity of I am which is pure being,
Pure knowing and stabilizing this.
So far this has been the most helpful guide on players of character.
Keep coming back to simple awareness,
Simple knowing.
There are sounds and there is that which knows sounds.
Stay with the knowing.
There are feelings and that which knows the feelings.
Stay with that knowing.
And there are thoughts and there is that which is aware of thoughts.
What is that I am?
And we say I am hearing.
I am feeling.
I am thinking.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stabilizing that.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
Stay with the I am,
The pure knowing.
You can continue to practice like this,
Returning to the I am,
The presence,
The knowing.
Or if you feel well established and stable in the sense of I am,
Then introduce this beautiful question,
This powerful question.
Who am I?
Who am I?
And stay with that open curiosity.
What is that which witnesses the I am?
What is it that knows the knower?
Who am I?
It is a question that does not have an intellectual answer.
It is a question that returns us to our source,
To our foundation.
Who am I?
Continue this question igniting within you,
A flame of inquiry.
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
This sense of individual I am began at birth.
This sense of individual I am will end with death.
Who am I prior to birth?
Who am I beyond death?
What is prior to the I am?
Beyond the I am and ever present witnessing the I am.
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Just the river of being back to its source and make that your foundation.
Set up camp there.
Who am I?
If ever the mind is agitated or wandering,
Simply return to the basic practice of I am and what is it that knows the mind is restless and wandering.
Stay with that.
And whenever that stabilizes,
Inquire,
Who am I?
Be the practices better than the other.
Two sides of one coin.
Two wings of one bird.
Two wings of freedom.
Both need to be strong for us to unravel this mystery.
The And in trying to unravel the mystery,
We may find we enter the mystery and we live from the mystery,
From the unknown and the unknowable.
And that is why it is free.
Free of all identification,
All limitation and all boundaries.
Rest here.
Selected to.
Let go of all practices,
Drop all practices.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
Let go of all striving,
Drop all striving and seeking.
