This is a first exercise for stage 3 of the Odoki Method.
- Close your eyes, and pick something in your experience. Doesn’t matter what it is, something you can rest your attention on.
- Check now: are you experiencing this?
- Next, turn your attention around and ask: who is perceiving this?
- If you get a sense of someone/something observing the experience, then check: who is observing this observer?
- Once we find the observer of the observer, we ask: who is observing this observer?
- How many observers can we find?
- Are all of these observers “me”? How many “mes” have we found?
- Are these multiple “mes” the same me, or different?
- Is it possible, that the natural assumption of a singular “me” is not quite what we find?
