The Very Stuff Experience Is Made Of

The experiences of body and world are just flows of perceptions, sights, sounds, tastes, textures and smells, appearing in awareness. Live as this vast openness without resistance. Whatever experience is made of, it is our self. There are three steps and three stages to the understanding. Steps: 1) we, awareness, are the witness of experience; 2) we, awareness, are both witness and knower of our experience –the space within which experience arises. 3) We, awareness, are knower, witness and the very stuff all experience is made of. Stages: 1) path of discrimination. What we essentially are versus everything we are aware of – thoughts, feelings, sensations. 2) path of openness. No resistance to experience. 3) path of love. The collapse of distinction, separation. Spend your time in one of these stages. Experiment with all of them. There is also a fourth path: celebration. Where everything learned on the first three paths is shared, expressed, celebrated.
