Daily Meditation Recordings with Christopher Titmuss- Week of September 9, 2024

Christopher Titmuss

This week’s topic is “The Changeless. Knock, knock on Heaven’s Door”

 

Conventional human experience reveals the subject and the object. The object includes, mind/body/things/world/time/space and here and now. All of these are subject to change. The subject includes consciousness, perception, awareness, attention, mindfulness, I and my. All subject to change. We might conclude true reality reveals change. Can realisation of the changeless make easy the navigation of change?
