Module 9: Episode 1 - Presence vs. present moment
with Dina Asher Kusnir
In this mindfulness of breath meditation, I invite to explore the direct experience of the Present Moment and explore the feeling of Presence as energetic all seeing feeling phnomena
Present Moment vs. Presence
· Present moment: Direct sensory experience (feeling breath, body sensations)
· Presence: Spacious awareness that contains experience; consciousness itself
· Presence is connected to the Hebrew word "Havaya" (presence), described as a name for God
I use the Ocean-Wave Metaphor to give you a different reference of reality
· Individuals are like waves believing they're separate entities
· In reality, all waves are part of the ocean (consciousness)
· Suffering comes from believing in separation
· Each wave/person is unique but not truly separate
