Namaste,
And a lively hello to you all!
In the last letter I shared with you insights about the power of witnessing, particularly the ability to cultivate vigilant witnessing. I know that most of you would acknowledge your understanding of this spiritual practice. And it is most likely that many of you have applied this practice or at least had the intention to. It is also quite possible that you are one of the people who has lamented at your apparent inability to sustain such a practice regularly in your life. It is something I have heard often. And indeed it is worth exploring how and why many spiritual practitioners find it difficult to maintain at least a regular practice, if not deeper practices. At this point I would suggest you ask your self the question:
What prevents me from finding regular time to create meditative space for myself?

Namaste,
In the last heart letter I reflected on the importance of undoing all that has been learned. And, as a ‘negating’ process, it is witnessing that cultivates the space for true transformation, leading us to greater awakening
and awareness of Truth.
Fundamental to the process of awakening is our ability to become the observer.
‘Witnessing awareness’ is the one common and constant factor involved in our awakening to the true nature of our self: the ability to cultivate a deep inner stillness and awareness of Truth.
This factor is underpinned by the truth that what we seek is not something we have to make, but what we already are, underneath the noise of the mind.
There are various methods we can use to access and cultivate our witnessing power.
Once we do, we are able to rest into a profound state of Presence.
To connect with this presence you can focus the mind on a special point at the back of the head. To find this point follow the midline down from the top of your crown about a hand-width down. This energy
centre is referred to as the Bindu.
By letting the mind focus here it is easy to let go of dialogue, access the witnessing state and experience an expansion into pure conscious awareness.
