The Call Back to Being

Tuesday 25 March 2025

Disease in the Consciousness-Only Model

A woman asks about explaining diseases in a consciousness-only model and whether chronic illness can be overcome. Rupert leads them through an experiential exploration, asking them to close their eyes and describe their current sensations without reference to the past. Through questioning, he reveals that when directly experienced, sensations have no shape, age, weight, or quality of being ‘sick’ or ‘healthy’ – they simply are. He encourages applying this same enquiry to any moment of feeling unwell, suggesting that our labelling of experience as ‘sickness’ is a provisional interpretation rather than the direct experience itself.
