The resting of the mind in the warm bath of awareness (Jnana) and the surrendering of the mind to God's love and care (Bhakti) are equated in this 'end of retreat' meditation.
A woman who claims she is dull and insensitive is given feedback from Rupert and then guided to surrender her feelings to her essential self.
Questions about causality and purpose lead to a discussion on the causelessness of creation and the inability of the finite mind to recognize its essence.
Rupert speaks about the 'flame we share' that we can all take out into the world and express in a multitude of ways.
In this exchange we learn what happens when one person confronts their fears.
A man is given several ideas to help him incorporate the understanding into his daily life as well as his work with Shamanic teachers.
It becomes clear in this conversation that although consciousness is 'all there is' it doesn't imply, on the relative level, that nothing matters.
