Awareness can not be obscured by experience but it can 'seem to be' if it is overlooked and imagined to be an object.
A man wants to know what Advaita says about the concept of soul and if becoming aware of our true self is the work of the soul.
Rupert clears up a common misunderstanding with respect to how the world is sometimes called an 'illusion'.
Clearly conveys that there is nothing beyond omnipotent and omnipresent awareness A man asks 'How can I possibly have the same awareness as God and is there something more profound than awareness?
No thought or feeling can affect the experience of being aware.
Rupert tells a participant what to do to 'live as his true nature'.
A change in behaviour comes from something deep inside when we explore our actual experience.
For infinite being there can not be separation or division.
Rupert describes what it was like for him when he was sick the first two days of the retreat.
Rupert discusses the qualities of omniscience and omnipotence in relation to awareness.
There is no inherent judgment in consciousnees but that doesn't give us license to behave in unjust ways.
The teaching is elaborated as a concession to the finite mind and is not the highest path.
