Beyond all knowing
ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE
Your inner space is always crowded with the known! Whatever we see, hear, read, listen to, understand – we continuously throw all the information of the outer world into our inner space. Now, make a conscious decision to put all knowing aside. Free your inner space of everything that you know. Make space for that which is beyond all knowing!
Instructions
Duration: 10 minutes daily
Sit comfortably with your eyes closed.
Watch your inner space in a relaxed way, as you would look at a flower.
Have a clear, relaxed intention that you will keep your inner space free of all concepts and words, all the teachings put inside your head, all the information you are receiving from outside. You are going to keep everything out.
If any thought appears, just watch it with the understanding it does not belong in your inner space. Either the thought came from someone else, or it arose from another thought which entered your inner space earlier.
If an emotion arises, understand that it is not you. Allow no word, no teaching, no concepts, no lies, no truths, no purity or impurity to touch you.
Let your inner space be empty!
When you see that everything which you thought is 'you' or 'yours' has actually come to you from outside, you stop struggling with your imagined identity. You experience a tremendous freedom from yourself. Freedom from yourself is the ultimate freedom, the ultimate peace.
Just remain in that freedom, in that peace. Enjoy the silence, the emptiness that is your true nature.
