Meditation on Not-Self

Read slowly. Perhaps read aloud. Listen within to any responses from the deep of your being.

Repeat the process. It is your responses that matter.

May awareness see clearly when the ego arises

May awareness see clearly when ego does not arise

 

May this awareness see the condition of body as the condition of body, not as myself

May this awareness see feelings as feelings, not as myself

May this awareness see thoughts as thoughts, not as myself

May this awareness see perceptions as perceptions, not as myself

May this awareness see states of mind as states of mind, not as myself

May this awareness see awareness, not as myself.

May awareness see the conditions for what arises, not myself as the creator of what arises

 

May awareness observe clearly whenever the I arises

May awareness see clearly when the notion of me arises

May awareness see clearly when the notion of my arises

May awareness see clearly when the notion of I, me and my does not arise

 

May awareness show freedom from building up my sense of self

May awareness show freedom from putting down my sense of self

May awareness reveal a wisdom and freedom to respond to events

May wisdom reveal the emptiness of clinging to ego, to self, to  and my

 

May awareness reveal freedom from the limits of ego

May freedom and wisdom abides in the face of conditions arising, staying and passing.
