This week’s theme is: Resting in Being. A Major Step towards full Awakening. . What distracts us from resting in being? Is your daily life so preoccupied that you have no time for 20 minutes of silence? It means that the self, in the form of the thinker, the talker and the doer, dominates your mind.
