The core aspect of all major spiritual traditions is
to enquire deeply into our True Nature.
Who are ‘we’?
Within the first few steps of this ‘Path’, it becomes very obvious that:
‘We’ are not our bodies…
Not our egos, mind, thoughts, likes, dislikes…
‘We’ are very simply…
That which is ‘Aware’… or Conscious.
Just because it sounds simple…
yet,
Our pre-programed perspectives of ‘who we think we are’…
Creates an almost impenetrable wall that veils our ‘True Self’.
As an aspirant seeks the full fruition of this ‘Path’…
The deeper the meditations lead towards the ‘wordless Wisdoms’
revealed by deep ‘Insight Meditation’… ‘Jhana‘
One must immerse themselves in their ‘True Nature’…
Advaita Vedanta refers this as the “I Am”.
I am – That which is ‘Aware’… or Conscious.
This is one small but profound aspect into
attaining the ‘breakthrough’ experiences
found in these meditations of ‘Higher Consciousness’…
The ‘Jhana’ states.
No matter how far & deep one goes with this…
Abiding in the “I Am”… our True Nature…
The Witness, Pure Awareness… Pure Consciousness…
It will help you gain those breakthroughs…
And the deeper and longer your experience becomes…
The closer to the ‘Natural State’ of your True Nature you become… simply…
Consciousness
The Parvastha… the ‘after glow’…
You will eventually be inseparably connected consciously with your
Natural State – your True Nature… “I Am”….
Of your True Being… your True Self.
