Thank you so so so much for this article
It helped cleared up so many things for me, and for many other readers I bet.
I agree that it's a hard switch to make -- you have to know where to "look" to see into that SR lens. For me, it's kind of feels like falling backwards, into the Witness Consciousness that is allowing this whole drama of the world to take place. The consciousness that is watching everything if you kick your ego out of the way, when you pretend that your mind and body isn't even there.
Another way to perhaps see into it is when you drop all thought/mentalization, and see everything without labels, without objectifying things. To see things as they are, without your mind there to think about it.
What seems to really help for me slip into that state, is to see an object, and then pretend that my body-mind wasn't there to observe it -- what awareness is left? Then try applying it to your own body-mind, pretend you aren't there to be aware of yourself. It's an interesting experience
I think this is what the zen koan, "if a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?" is referring to
Would love to hear other people's stories and techniques on how to see through SR.
