In this dharma talk given during a recent retreat Jeff Carreira speaks about the necessity of question the identity of being the mediator performing the practice. We habitually see ourselves as the self that meditates. The one born on our birthday that has our name. In truth there is a much bigger consciousness that is the true source of our awareness and ultimately it is that awareness that meditates. In this teaching Jeff asks us to let go o f our separate sense of self and allow the source of all awareness to be the only one meditating. “You have to stop thinking of yourself as being the one meditating. You arn't meditating…” ~ Jeff Carreira “I am here to teach to the consciousness behind all of you, to try to encourage it to liberate itself from you! You are not the one who is going to be free in the end.” ~ Jeff Carreira Listen and Subscribe An online community of inspired individuals dedicated to spiritual transformation and mutual evolution.Become a member
