Exploring Awareness
Sunday, January 5, 2020
At KECC

Nine of us were present for this Sunday afternoon session at the Gatehouse. The meeting began with a short description of some aspects of Krishnamurti’s teachings which then led into a meditation guided by David inviting an experience of what K calls “choiceless awareness.” The guidance alternated with spaces of silence in which the participants could integrate the experience provoked by the words. After the half-hour meditation there was time for sharing of the experience, and this turned out to be a rich interaction and group discussion.
At what seemed like an appropriate time Ralph played a recording of a guided meditation by Ram Dass. The twenty minute meditation was similar in many ways to the previous meditation with some variations. Again there was sharing afterwards, which became quite spirited and energetic. It seemed that the visitors thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.
