Awareness in Relationship
Awakening is often seen as something discovered alone in direct experience.
Usually, we explore that in silence, in observation; but is it possible to stay present in the world when interacting with others?
There’s a form of practice called r/InsightDialogue or Bohm dialogue where we create a space for
- listening without preparing a response
- speaking from immediate experience
- noticing reactions as they arise, in real time
It’s simple, but not always easy.
Because in relationship, things surface quickly - identity, defensiveness, the urge to agree or resist.
And that can reveal a lot. We’ve recently started experimenting with this in a small live Zoom dialogue group - not as a system or teaching, but as a shared inquiry into what happens when awareness is held together, in relationship. Anyone interested? Anyone had any experience with this form of mindfulness?
