Duration: 2 min 18 s
Description: The goal of our practice is to help shift to another operating system, called open-hearted awareness, where all our senses and systems—including vision—are functioning in their natural state. In order for us to do this, we need to learn how to shift our awareness and live with our eyes open. (From Loch Kelly's book, Shift Into Freedom).
