A gentle invitation to look closely at the sense of "I" behind your experience, trusting whatever simple and subtle things you notice.
Approaching with care
This we should approach very gently,
not pushing,
no effort,
it's delicate.
There is a lot of vulnerability here.
Seeing through this opens doors.
Freedom, but it will unravel fears and pains.
Gently,
very subtle, respectful, respectful looking.
What knows the breath
Sensations and breath.
What knows the breath?
In the sense of I that knows the breath,
what does this I point to?
Does this I have a shape, a form, a story?
If so, that is also, as the breath, known.
What is it that knows the story?
Empty looking
Because seeing, there's empty looking.
What does this sense of I point to?
Notice this call of seduction, temptation
to be immersed in that sense of I's thought
as images, as narrative stories.
Trusting what you've seen
Anything you have seen in these moments,
remember that and trust that.
Even if subtle or simple.
The keys that unlock this are always simpler than we expect.
