[0:02] Let's begin by examining this physical state of our bodies.
[0:14] Just taking in whatever is being felt.
[0:27] What is the quality of sensation throughout?
[0:50] Are there any areas of tension?
[1:10] Are there any spaces that are more relaxed?
[1:28] Noticing the overlap between any spaces of density or even contraction and spaciousness.
[1:58] Noticing the seamless transitions.
[2:26] Noticing that in what we feel, the sensations of the body, the energy field of the body,
[2:39] there are no rigid boundaries.
[2:54] Just continual blending.
[3:32] Noticing the sense field of the body.
[3:44] Noticing there's no rigid boundary between inside and outside.
[4:05] There's a blending.
[4:14] In all directions.
[4:26] There's a seamlessness.
[4:30] In all directions.
[4:45] Thank you.
[5:51] Noticing that this seamlessness where inside becomes outside.
[6:06] And outside appears as inside.
[6:18] That this also includes the floor beneath you.
[6:48] Noticing the feeling, the body sense.
[6:56] Of what it feels like the interior.
[7:02] Amorphous.
[7:06] Vast.
[8:04] And that sensation of contact, just the pure sensation is continuous with the inner field
[8:22] of the body, one flowing into the other.
[9:04] And noticing the sensation of contact, that slightly more dense feeling itself being amorphous
[9:28] not clearly defined, but clearly felt.
[9:52] And the energy, the vast open energy around, in the air.
[10:12] And the more dense energy beneath, in the floor, in the ground, and the earth.
[10:43] And noticing that the amorphous sensation field of contact.
[10:54] And the energy field of earth are themselves not demarcated.
[11:11] One flowing into another.
[11:25] Each feeling the other from the inside.
[12:00] One flowing into another.
[12:29] I'm feeling the energy.
[12:32] Of the space around the building, inside and outside, the earth and trees.
[13:03] Noticing that sensation is already within the body sense field.
[13:26] The amorphous inner body sense.
[13:44] Includes the trees.
[14:04] Includes the snow.
[14:16] Includes the rock and soil.
[14:48] Of the inner energetic field of the body.
[15:09] The emptiness itself reflects everything into existence.
[15:24] Body.
[15:27] Trees.
[15:30] Soil.
[15:34] Open sky.
[15:39] Sun.
[15:51] The feeling within the feeling.
[15:58] The emptiness of feeling within the feeling that also is the feeling.
[16:13] The feeling.
[16:32] The empty nature of time.
[16:47] The feeling.
[16:52] And its empty nature.
[16:53] The feeling.
[17:19] In the 성공.
[17:23] Is eternity.
[17:32] Empty sensing, fully inhabiting sensation and the empty nature of sensation.
[17:57] Floating in fluid warmth, not differentiating, not thinking, pure feeling.
[18:15] No perception of inside or outside.
[18:37] No perception of self or other.
[18:50] Just pure energy appearing as feeling.
[19:03] Vast sensation.
[19:26] Thank you.
[20:30] And this empty sensing, without a boundary, without a story,
[20:47] and eternally present, is also your life, as it is now, the adult,
[21:01] the adult, moving, learning, developing,
[21:25] aging.
[21:35] And none of those stories alter the empty nature of the sense,
[21:46] the pure sense, continuous conduit to the simultaneous existence.
[22:15] Existence.
[22:17] Within the womb.
[22:25] Outside of time, only sensation.
[22:33] Only the empty nature of sensation.
[22:42] Finding an expression through you.
[22:52] With your habits.
[23:01] Your talents.
[23:09] Your fears.
[23:15] Your joys.
[23:24] Your consciousness.
[23:49] The apparent separate you interacting with the world around you.
[24:02] Never left the eternal.
[24:04] The eternal.
[24:08] Outside of time.
[24:11] Time.
[24:12] Before time.
[24:22] The conduit.
[24:25] The conduit to all times and places.
[24:28] Never broke.
[24:34] Never ceased.
[24:44] It's fully available through the alive sense.
[24:56] The empty sense.
[25:06] The radiant sense.
[25:15] The intimate sense.
[25:31] And as the body ages.
[25:39] As the body loses its faculties.
[25:44] Becomes weaker.
[25:48] Becomes dependent.
[25:54] Nothing is lost.
[26:02] The pure sense.
[26:07] The eternal.
[26:09] Empty sense.
[26:13] Not in time.
[26:17] Before time.
[26:22] Easily accommodates.
[26:24] The aging.
[26:27] Changing.
[26:31] And ultimately.
[26:34] Dying.
[26:37] Body.
[26:58] The totality of this cycle of one being.
[27:08] Remains.
[27:12] The empty.
[27:14] Pure sense.
[27:16] The alive sense.
[27:20] Never moving.
[27:22] Everything.
[27:23] Away from it.
[27:42] Even in its grave.
[27:50] The energetics.
[27:57] I kept the body in homeostasis.
[28:01] This.
[28:04] Now released.
[28:11] Massive.
[28:13] Reorganization.
[28:16] Form.
[28:19] And energy.
[28:20] The energy.
[28:23] Giving everything to the surroundings.
[28:31] The soil.
[28:36] The new life.
[28:46] And.
[28:47] Never leaving.
[28:48] It's own.
[28:49] Empty nature.
[29:01] This cycle of existence.
[29:04] Birth and death.
[29:08] Perfectly intact.
[29:13] Perfectly.
[29:14] Orchestrated.
[29:19] Millions.
[29:20] And billions.
[29:20] Billions.
[29:21] Of levels.
[29:28] And endless numbers of complexity.
[29:31] And simplicity.
[29:35] None of it.
[29:39] Leaving this.
[29:40] Empty.
[29:42] Pure.
[29:44] Sense.
[29:46] It's available.
[29:48] Always.
[29:52] It is the felt sense.
[29:55] When the felt sense.
[29:58] Is not touched.
[30:00] By thoughts.
[30:02] Or concepts.
[30:31] Thank you.
