The Nature of Not Knowing

Tuesday 10 September 2024

There’s Nothing Unlovable about the Body

A woman shares that during a meditation earlier in the day, in which participants imagined themselves as newborn infants, grief arose, reflecting a lifelong struggle with hating her body. She asks how to reconcile this, knowing the body isn’t truly real. Rupert guides her through another round of the newborn infant meditation, inviting her to focus on the essence of her body experience – tingling, vibrating raw sensation. He advises her to return to this direct experience again and again, until she recognises that there is nothing unlovable about the body.
