Self-Enquiry Versus Self-Abidance

A woman says she understands self-enquiry but not self-abidance. Rupert suggests that we start with the realm of experience that seems to be furthest from us, and move closer. This is experiential self-enquiry. The last layer is existential lack. Then we are just being aware of being. That is self-abidance, even when we add back layers of experience.
