You Are What Is Always Present

Difference Between Awareness and Being?

A man asks if there is a difference between awareness and being. Rupert replies there is no difference, it’s just another line of investigation. One could ask, ‘Am I aware?’ or ‘Do I exist?’ and both lead to the same recognition. He explains that our true nature has two qualities: ‘I am’ and ‘I know’. These are expressed as aware being or luminous emptiness, where luminosity is the knowing quality and emptiness is the spacious being quality. Either path can be explored deeply, leading to the same understanding through the felt sense of being.
