How can we live the non-dual understanding that we share our being with everyone when separation still feels so real?
Rupert says: ‘The appearance of separation is not a mistake. It is the nature of experience itself. All experience takes place through the subject-object relationship, so recognising our shared being does not suddenly change the way the world appears.’
‘What is required is a conscious feeling into our shared being despite appearances. Begin with those you love and trust, then gradually extend this understanding to those you find difficult. In this way, understanding matures into unconditional love and lived experience.’
