Being Aware of Awareness Guided Meditations from Awakening Together Podcasts

In this episode, lyrics from Sam Harris were contemplated. 

"The openness and clarity of consciousness that is present in you right now

is the very thing that you are seeking

and it really is fully present

and this can be recognized directly"

In this episode, quotes from Nisargadatta Maharaj are contemplated. "The awareness that you are will open your eyes to what you are. It is all very simple. ...establish a constant contact with your Self, be with yourself all the time. ...Only what you discover through your awareness, your own effort, will be of permanent use to you."

In this episode, quotes from Nisargadatta Maharaj were contemplated. "The person is merely a result of a misunderstanding. In reality, there is no such thing. Feelings, thoughts, and actions race before the watcher in endless succession, leaving traces in the brain and creating an illusion of continuity. A reflection of the watcher in the mind creates a sense of 'I' and the person acquires an apparently independent existence. In reality there is no person, only the watcher identifying himself with the 'I' and the 'mine.'"

In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated. "If one knows that without the Seer there is nothing to be seen, just as there are no pictures without the screen, one is not deluded. The jñāni knows that the screen, the pictures, and the sight thereof are but the Self."

In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated. 

In this episode, quote from the Quaran were contemplated. "Wherever you turn there is God's face."

In this episode, quotes from Nisargadatta Maharaj were contemplated. "All you need is already within you, only you must approach your Self with reverence and love. ... Giving attention to attention, aware of being aware. Affectionate awareness is the crucial factor that brings Reality into focus. ... Do not undervalue attention. It means interest and love."

In this episode, quotes from Paul Brunton were contemplated. "The source of wisdom and power, of love and beauty is within ourselves but not within our egos. It is within our consciousness. Indeed, its presence provides us with a conscious contrast which enables us to speak of the ego as if it were something different and apart; it is the true Self whereas the ego is only an illusion of the mind."

In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated. 

"Q: How can the rebellious mind be made calm and tranquil?

RM: Either see its source so that it may disappear, or surrender yourself so that it may be struck down.... The ego submits only when it recognizes the Higher Power."

In this episode, quotes from Ramana Maharshi were contemplated.

"Grace is the Self. That ... is not to be acquired; you only need to know that it exists.... You are surrounded by sunlight; yet if you would see the sun, you must turn in its direction and look at it."
