Reflection 40

Welcome!


Touch

Touch something.

I’m touching a table.

Where is the dividing line between that object and aware capacity?

Pay attention to the sensation you feel.

I feel the table, not my fingers. My consciousness is empty for the texture of the wood.

I am not a ‘thing’ here at centre, touching another thing there at a distance. I am no-thing - capacity for things here at no distance.

I see a boundary between my hand and the table. But both my hand and the table are given here in my spacious awareness. I am capacity for both.

Consciousness is not contained within my body. My body - and the table - are within consciousness.
