The Pull of Grace

When 'I' Looks at 'I'

A man asks about being naturally localising itself as the finite mind. Does it imply the existence of an illusion? Rupert explains that illusion appears from the perspective of the finite mind, but when awareness looks at itself, it doesn't find anything objective. Rupert guides an exploration with a question: what do you see when you look at yourself? When I looks at I, what does it experience? Objectless being knows itself by being itself, and only a finite mind knows the world. An alarm goes off, but Rupert remains in his seat.
