Exploring the essence of meditation paths reveals the depth of non-duality wisdom. Three main paths are: progressive, direct, and pathless. The progressive path acknowledges our belief in separation, promoting objective meditation to focus attention and prepare for self-enquiry. The direct path also starts with presumed separation but emphasises self-enquiry. This inward journey explores the question "Who am I really?" aiming for direct self-recognition. The pathless path, the most radical, eliminates separation assumptions. It champions non-meditation or just being, with no intermediary practices. These paths can be sequential: transitioning from objective meditation to self-enquiry, finally settling in pure existence. The aim is internal fulfilment, resonating with non-duality's core wisdom.
