A simple, practical introduction to self-inquiry. Learn how to explore ego, awareness, and the sense of self through direct experience and everyday life.
Self-inquiry is the practice of turning attention inward and asking questions like:
Who am I? or, WHAT am I?
What is it that’s aware of this moment?
What is this “me” that feels like it’s deciding, choosing, and controlling life?
When you look for this “me,” something interesting happens. You'll find that the "me" you are looking for is the one doing the looking. And then, resting as the "one doing the looking" you realize that looking is just whats happening. No one is doing it.
That feeling of “I’m doing this” is part of what people call the ego. It's an identification with the body/mind/and actions of whatever it is that is occurring.
This is something you can practice while sitting, listening, breathing, working, or even feeling frustrated.
