There is repose in not knowing, and restfulness and freedom in not knowing. And availability. The perfume of presence. It may seem difficult sometimes to be still. It is as if the inner sensations are unbearable. We want to wiggle away out of there. Where, where to?

So to start this meeting, if you could just turn your attention inwardly. And welcome the peace. The peace which is within our heart. The peace of being, which is one, one being. We are one as this peace, as this love. So welcome yourself as that. Allow things to be just as they are.…

You are the perceiving element, the reality of all perceptions. There is only one reality. There are no distinctions between your essence and the essence of anybody else. It is one essence.
