Awareness Explorers episode 209: Neelam, Guest Explorer

In this episode we talk to Neelam about her awakening with H.W.L. Poonja, known as Papaji, the role of trust in awakening, how the nervous system's capacity to be present is the "missing link" between a desire for truth and the ability to experience it, and how a true feeling of "okayness" enables us to rest in our true nature.

•Includes a guided meditation leading us to the direct experience of presence by noticing the spaciousness that is already here and has always been here, thereby nurturing the growing capacity of the nervous system to rest in presence.
