Where Are You Watching This World From
You are the awareness that witnesses all experience, not the body-mind; recognizing this is liberation.
Where are you watching this world from? Is it from the kingdom of objects? Where are you watching this world from? What you are watching is the world of objects. Yes. Which world are you looking out from and seeing this world? [Silence] Try to jump out of there into this world. Can you do it? Jump out of where ever you are watching all of this from and jump into this world. Do it! You can only believe that you have and, in a way, all beliefs are that belief. [Silence] All the ways in which you define yourself… is just that this identification as what you are perceiving, instead of that which is aware even of perception. [Silence] So…the way is very simple, simpler than simple, nothing to do. Our struggle is all fake. To struggle means we already must have an idea of where we want to go, what something must be. It is impossible to struggle unless you have a plan. If you have a plan for Freedom you will struggle. If you have no plan, nowhere to get to, not concerned with anything that may appear or disappear, is it not apparent to you that you are just aware? [Silence] And is it not apparent to you that not only you are aware, there is nothing to you besides this Awareness itself.

- True freedom comes from recognizing yourself as the silent witness rather than getting lost in the observed
- The question 'where' points to the spaceless, timeless nature of consciousness that is your true essence
