"Most people's perceptions of their bodies is atrophied because they go away from the perception and immediately conceptualise it.
The perception is always in the present, immediate, but conceptualisation is memory. Most of the time we feel and function through memory"
"In everday life we rarely give sensations time to make themselves felt.
We prematurely intervene, conceptualising and qualifying them.
Perceptions and concepts cannot exist simultaneously and we tend to cut off the perception short before it has fully flourished"
"We live in memory and cut ourselves off from the universe, we live in isolation.
This is the root of all suffering"
"Perception itself is NonDual, and it is one with the awareness within which it appears."

Good to find this , thanks Balance. What i found most interesting about Jean Klein is that he is one of those guys who believe in the Direct approach and at the same time suggests the use of kashmir Shaivism (which deals with the energetic body) in order to help in the direct approach. kind of like what we have here at AYP.
i strongly recommend all of his writings even though i have only read some but i know what line of teaching he comes from. this guy is very sweet.
love,
Ananda |
