Stillness, Peace and True Nature

Physical Relaxation and Awareness

Could physical relaxation help one come back to true nature? Rupert says: ‘Physical relaxation could be a prelude to that, a preparation for coming back to your true nature. If you are very agitated physically, your attention is going to be absorbed in your body and sensations. If you relax physically, that could be a prelude to going back to your true nature. But it’s not by itself enough, and it’s not a requirement. When you’re physically active, some of your attention is required to pay attention to the world. Sitting here makes it easier – it’s quiet, there are no phones, the world is not calling our attention. It’s good to try it in these benign, peaceful circumstances first, but then test it in more challenging situations too.’
