hello richard holger hello francesca nice to see you

hello diana so lovely to be with you just a couple of words usually we start this meeting with a short guided meditation and then we can have a discussion questions whatever
and this meeting is recorded by the way
so to start with maybe we could sit comfortably and turn our attention inward
and welcome our experience
freshly
whichever way our experience is appearing
the sound of the birds
the breath
very gentle movement of the breath
whatever thoughts may appear
to remain as you are
without an interest in seeking any particular experience or any particular mind state
each moment is a fresh moment
of presence
transparent
effortless
the peace of being
there is no one doing anything
the sun the sun shines of its own
it shines as i meaning i this aware presence
appearing appearing as hearing hearing these words
appearing as a sensation of your feet on the ground
appearing as the sound of traffic
appearing as the gentle vibration of the body universal vibration
in the freshness of this moment in the freshness of each moment
all is well
because there is no need to achieve anything
because in the true moment there is no time
it’s the eternity of being of awareness
so we don’t need to hold on to any images
about ourself or about others
because images are empty they have no real significance
and these images are not true because our true meeting is beyond images it’s a meeting of love the meeting of reality meeting itself truth meeting itself love meeting itself
so living the non-dual understanding is living peace living freedom living oneness living the eternity of being
rather than living the story the story about me about you the story about life rather than living as an entity in in time and space as a woman as a man as a person
we live as reality the reality of universal consciousness universality of being
we simply need to let go of any self definition letting go of the definition of others as well
so there can be a fresh meeting a fresh moment of being
because our stories about ourselves and our stories about others are like dead corpses
which we drag along
it’s it’s strenuous complicated
whatever we’re protecting this is a ghost
an illusion an illusion protecting itself
like somebody wearing a mask and then wearing another mask to cover the previous mask a life of of masks
what for where is the love and beauty and the freedom in wearing a mask hiding and protecting what
everything around us is flowing the wind the sky the clouds waves on the surface of the ocean
the heartbeat
the universal pulsation
universal manifestation
and we are not apart from that
