Upcoming 7 Day Retreat in Costa Rica: https://www.louisekay.net/costaricare...
Join Louise this Sunday for an open guided meditation followed by Q&A: https://www.louisekay.net/zoom.html
When the mind personalizes thoughts and feelings it creates problems. These problems all center around a conceptual self, which we refer to as 'I'. When we investigate the nature of this 'I' we discover that it cannot actually be found and does not actually exist, aside from in our own imagination. With this seeing comes the recognition that who I am is not that concept of myself, but that which is aware of the concept. This is pure awareness. It never changes, never moves, never dies. It just is. Nothing belongs to awareness, nothing affects it, nothing harms it and nothing can destroy it (you).
When your perspective shifts from identifying as the conceptual 'I' to understanding that 'I' am awareness, then you are instantly free from suffering. Feelings don't need to be changed or fixed, they are simply witnessed. Thoughts don't need to be changed or eliminated, they are simply witnessed. And the attention rests problem free as 'I awareness', simply witnessing the magnificent phenomena that is life.
This is a clip from the 7 day UK retreat, taken on July 16th, 2022.
Louise Kay holds group events and retreats online and around the world.
