Description

"To meditate on self-awareness, just be aware of your mind—without any opinions or beliefs. If you do that, your thoughts will naturally disappear. Just watch—be aware. Focus simply on what is there. If while meditating you recognize that you are following your thoughts, be aware of that. Let it go. If you don’t follow your thoughts, you’ll notice that your mind is calm and relaxed—then, be there. Don’t look for something special. Just be aware of everything as it is. By doing that again and again, you’ll be self-aware and discover your buddha nature—your inner peace. This is a very simple meditation, but I find it to be profound. And, if you’re lucky, you’ll discover your true nature of mind.” —Khenpo Sherab Sangpo Khenpo Sherab Sangpo, a professor of Tibetan Buddhism in the Nyingma Lineage, offered teachings from his book "The Heart of Tibetan Buddhism—Advice for Life, Death, and Enlightenment” on The Four Noble Truths, Buddha Nature, and The Guru-Disciple Relationship and How to Receive Empowerments, along with guided meditations on self-awareness and the union of shamatha and vipashyana.
