This is number 19 of a 30-part meditation series inspired by Adyashanti. This episode invites you to find yourself by losing yourself. This is something we cannot “do” but rather “allow.” We let go of the notion of self that has no independent reality in order to experience our true identity, which is paradoxically personal and universal. What is truly me is no other than what is truly you, and what is truly all. Theses practices build on each other, so you can listen consecutively...

In this way, you become the space through which Eternity gazes into the world of time. Your eyes are the eyes of Etern...
