38 Questions & Answers. Zoom 01.2025

22nd January 2025. James Low had invited questions from people watching his Zooms, which he began to answer.

Note: the constant cuts in this video result from the removal of James Low's periods of silence, while waiting for the consecutive translation from the German translator.

"(00:00) What is the difference between a light body and a rainbow body?"

"(12:09) What does "recognize a thought" mean in the texts, and how is it different from being aware of a thought?"

"(17:37) Can you explain the Tibetan word "jigten" (meaning word) and how it relates to the Western idea of crisis?"

"(26:51) Why include karma and rebirth in dzogchen teachings when they are unprovable?"

"(29:45) Can one maintain a constant view of impermanence and emptiness, or does it require continuous effort?"

"(31:16) In meditation, I sometimes see the emptiness of the self, but it passes. Both this insight and ordinary thinking seem equally impermanent and empty. Is there a stable foundation for realization?"

"(38:13) How do I participate in the co-emergence of phenomena? Is it by identifying as awareness and engaging through the senses? Who is participating—myself as awareness?"
