Episode 4: Conversations on the Nature of Consciousness, Memory and Manifestation
In this episode a woman asks who or what is aware; another woman asks about memory and its relationship with identity; and a man asks if insentient things are a movement of consciousness. These dialogues are taken from Rupert Spira’s May 2019 retreat in Wales, The True Friend. For audio and video recordings of the full retreat and the entire library of Rupert Spira’s recordings and publications, as well as information about attending live and streamed events, please visit rupertspira.com. The perennial, non-dual understanding that lies at the heart of all the great religious and spiritual traditions – Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism, Sufism, Taoism and Zen, among others – allows us to investigate the essential nature of our experience. In the simple knowing of our own being, we discover the source of the peace and happiness for which all people long above all else.
