Dear Jeff, please let me know if this works better (on your Android phone):
Hello, everyone.
Welcome.
So if you could either
close your eyes
or turn your gaze inward.
Sit comfortably
and welcome your experience
just as it is.
We invite ourself to
settle into being,
presence
in this moment,
allowing things as they are.
Thoughts may appear to you,
sensations,
perceptions.
To simply
recognize being,
Effortless awareness.
Nothing that we need to do.
Presence
is awareness
is effortlessly.
There is no one
doing anything.
To welcome whatever
appears to you openly,
unconditionally.
Without any history
to be completely not knowing.
To meet your experience,
not in time.
Because between every thought,
there is a gap,
the gap of awareness.
And everything
which appears to you
appears to you
within the gap.
Within this silent presence,
effortlessly aware,
knowing,
not seeking anything.
Resting in itself
as itself.
This creative nonactivity.
Like the river,
it seems to flow,
but it’s not moving.
And yet in this waking dream,
we perceive movement,
but we are the non movement.
In this movement,
like the breath,
like the heartbeat
is embraced
in the nonmovement.
So allow yourself,
invite yourself
to be completely not knowing,
to relax and release
and give space to
whatever appears to you
without any personal intention.
It’s not necessary.
In the silence,
it is revealed
that you are this silence.
That this silence is universal,
impersonal.
And it is this silent,
still presence
which perceives,
which is
I
am.
It is this transparent,
still silent awareness
which knows it is aware
and knows that it is;
I know I am.
The I am somebody
is a mind narrative,
a game of sort
within the dream.
But to know oneself
as the nondual self,
one reality,
formless,
borderless,
invisible to the senses.
Then the
I am somebody
is no longer limiting.
At the mind level, we
believe we are limited entities.
But there is an understanding
which bypasses the mind.
Which reveals
your true nature as the source,
that which in this moment is
is undeniable and
is not subject to time and space.
Freedom from limitation,
the impression of personhood,
which comes hand in hand
with existential fear.
It is the understanding
about our true nature,
about reality,
which enlightens the mind
and heals, restores order.
The light of understanding
guides the mind.
Without the guidance,
the proper guidance,
the body mind is
deeply conditioned.
Infected
by the belief in separation,
worries and concerns,
regrets,
disappointments,
inner struggles,
which express themselves
in relationships
and dissatisfaction.
So for now,
in this moment,
we invite the mind
to come to rest
in the light of awareness,
which is always on.
We invite the body
to be
as its true nature,
without borders;
so that the breath
is the universe breathing.
I am,
and I don’t know what I am.
There is no need to know.
Being is sufficient onto itself.
One beingness,
complete not knowing.
We meet in form,
but our true meeting is formless.
So, do you have any questions?
Anything that you would like to explore?
You’re welcome to raise your hand,
and there is a react button
in the bottom of the screen
where you can also raise your hand.
