Discussion of spiritual practices: awakening, meditation, and the freedom that cannot be lost or found. All perspectives are welcome; advaita, christian, buddhist, islam or even no perspective at all. Just pointing to that which is nearest and dearest.

self concern

Occasionally I run across some words that say it all. This one is from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

"Learn to live without self concern. For this you must know your own true being as indomitable, fearless, ever victorious. Once you know with absolute certainty that nothing can trouble you but your own imagination, you come to disregard your desires and fears, concepts, and ideas, and live by truth alone".

So when we sit in meditation just notice that nothing that arises is you ... not me, not me, not me.
