You Cannot Be Present: Eric Baret

You can watch all our videos at https://scienceandnonduality.com Eric replies to a question from the audience at his Amsterdam retreat: "Is it all about acknowledging my feelings and being in the moment?" He explains clearly that there is no need for the self to appropriate achievement, and points out that the Christian and Sufi traditions, unlike the Buddhist tradition, acknowledge this by emphasizing that the goal is not to become anything—rather it is to become nothing. The first English translation of one of Eric Baret’s books, Let the Moon Be Free, is available on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1727646266). These dialogues are an invitation to celebrate life in the present moment, free from the fear of an imaginary future. Science and Nonduality is a community inspired by timeless wisdom, informed by cutting-edge science, and grounded in direct experience. We come together in an open-hearted exploration while celebrating our humanity.
