Meditation is a tools to inquire into what we are and what we are not. Our first meditation, to be released, is about seeing what we are not. We begin to learn and question, who are these thoughts actually occurring to? Who is the one who is able observe thoughts, rather than be the experience of thoughts and identifying with them. WHO is it, that is able to observe? “I am” is always here. Anything that follows I am… is a thought. Is a form of identification. Everything which comes after “I am” is that which the mind creates, or offers as forms of identification. The thoughts too are simply phenomena occurring. None of these thoughts are actually our true self. So we meditate to begin to see this. We can see it in this very instant. In one moment of deep meditation the whole veil can be lifted. Meditation is essential to the journey of realisation. But all it takes is one moment. We use meditation to inquire into what actually is this experience, beyond the identifying mind…
Tom explains about The Light That We Are is, which as a concept, to explain the nature of experience. The experience of all that is, the ‘permanent On switch’ of life. He explains that what ‘all of this’ (Life) is, is quite unexplainable, but the Light That We Are is an offering of an explanation, a road map, to the Truth of what we are living.
Tom talks about some of the fundamentals when working together. Training how to recognise thinking, and be able to watch it, rather than believe it. Training together how to feel emotions or sensations fully and safely. It is a shared, collaborative experience. The training is to arrive more and more deeply into the truth of right Now. To truly experience unfiltered reality.
Tom introduces The Light That We Are. A movement and a dedication to providing wholeness, truth and light of the reality we are living.
The purpose of this work is to realise that there is no 'self'. It is only a separated self which can suffer, but that self is only made 'true' by believing all the thoughts which occur in consciousness. It is our job to recognise that the 'thinker' is also a thought, just along with all thoughts. The purpose of the work is to truly be in the presence of Now. It must be experienced directly, not recognised with the mind.
