The Self Is Not Just a Place You Visit

Resurrecting the Eternal in Us

A man, whose birthday it is, says that after many years on the non-dual path, he wonders what birth he is actually celebrating today. Rupert suggests that we’re celebrating two births. One is the birth of ourself in form of a person, which enables us to have this conversation, for instance, and to enjoy friendship. If we were not born in this form, friendship would not be possible. We wouldn’t be able to listen to music, read poetry, taste strawberries or perceive the world. This precious birth as a human being is something to be celebrated. And there’s a second birth, like a rebirth, into our true nature, the resurrection of the eternal in us. But we don’t really need a special day for that.
