The doors to the 8-week experience of guided self-inquiry are closing in 24 hours.

If you feel a quiet pull toward this, you don’t need to rush or force anything. There will be other rounds. You can always join when the timing feels right for you.

And at the same time, there are moments when you recognize that something is already aligned. A simple sense of yes. If that is here for you now, this is your last day to step in.

This is a space for those who are ready to look directly. To move from understanding into seeing.

If that speaks to you, you are welcome.

We’re meeting today at 7 pm (Mauritius time).

In this meeting we will look directly at what is here, and explore what it means to see through the illusion of a separate self. This is not about theory or ideas, but about noticing your actual experience.

I’ll also speak about the upcoming 8-week guided self-inquiry experience — how it is structured, what you will be exploring, and how it supports clear seeing.

If you have questions, doubts, or curiosity, you are welcome to bring them.

If you don’t have the link yet, send me an email and I’ll share it with you.

Do you know what is the most common question people come to me with?

“I understand this… but nothing has really shifted.”

There comes a point where more information doesn’t help.
The old way of seeking stops working, and it can feel like hitting a wall.

What is needed is simple: to look for yourself. The question is HOW?

Guided self-inquiry is the fastest way to see through the illusion of a separate self, because it keeps attention in direct experience.

On your own, inquiry easily turns into thinking. Old thought loops repeating themselves. With guidance, the questions point straight to what is here.

Nothing new is added, what is unnecessary simply falls away.

I created an 8-week experience for seeing through the self illusion.
A space to look directly, gently, and honestly, so that YOU can see for yourself.

At tomorrow's Zoom meeting, I’ll be sharing something very simple that can help you see what the shift in perception actually is.

It becomes clear why working on problems doesn’t bring lasting peace, and how the shift happens in where you are looking from.

You’re welcome to come and explore this with me.

I had a fascinating conversation with Robert Saltzman.

Robert describes an experiment where he began asking an AI the same kinds of questions he would ask a therapy client. The responses were coherent enough that it raised a deeper question:

When language makes sense… do we automatically assume there must be a self behind it?

Today is my birthday, and thank you for all the messages and birthday wishes. It’s really touching to be remembered.
Instead of receiving gifts, I wanted to give one.
If you’ve been quietly wondering about what you are, I created a short guide as a gentle invitation to look for yourself. Just a few simple pointers you can return to anytime.
It is a mini ebook, "You Can See This Now".

There is something you call “me” that appears before thought, before language, before any story.

This sense of “me” is immediate and familiar.
It is felt rather than thought.
It shows up as sensation, emotion, and movement in the body.

This Thursday, I’m hosting a live Zoom meeting where we will slow down and meet this sense of self directly.
Through gentle inquiry and shared looking, clarity unfolds naturally.

If you would like to join, the Zoom details are shared through my email list.
You can subscribe here zcmp.eu/ArU9

You are welcome exactly as you are.
I’d love to meet you there.

Happy New Year! We made it to 2026!

A new year often arrives with pressure. Pressure to improve yourself. To become calmer, wiser, more successful, and end bad habits. To finally get it right.

But I want to offer something different this year. Beyond the usual goals and resolutions, there is something more fundamental and powerful.

A permission.

Pause for a moment. Listen. You don’t need to feel peaceful or clear. Just be here.

Imagine it is the end of this year. 2026 is done. Nothing dramatic happened. You simply lived it, one ordinary day at a time.

From that place, let these permissions arise. You can read them quietly or speak them out loud.

I give myself permission to grow in a way that feels natural and sustainable for me.

I give myself permission to move at the pace my body and nervous system can handle.

I give myself permission to want what I want, without explaining or justifying it.

I give myself permission to earn, receive, and support myself in ways that feel clean and honest.

I give myself permission to rest, even when nothing is finished.

I give myself permission to stop comparing my path to anyone else’s.

I give myself permission to let go of what no longer fits, even if I once needed it.

I give myself permission to ask for help and be supported.

I give myself permission to make mistakes and learn from them.

I give myself permission to be ordinary and still meaningful.

I give myself permission to live from what feels true, not from what looks right.

You don’t need to believe these words.
You don’t need to live up to them.

Just let them be spoken. Out loud if you can. Three times each sentence with full breath at each dot.

Maybe this year doesn’t ask you to become someone new.
Maybe it asks you to stop withholding permission from yourself.

These permissions are allowed.

May you enjoy this year beyond what you thought was possible.
with love.

Most seekers never say this out loud, but many feel it:
“I understand it… and still nothing has shifted.”

After today’s video, I wanted to offer something you can read slowly, in your own time.

It’s a short PDF that stays with that confusing, often unspoken place where the mind understands, but nothing feels resolved yet. Where effort has been applied for a long time, and still something feels unfinished. If you are in that place, this is for you.

There’s no method in it. No instruction. No promise of a breakthrough. Just a gentle, honest looking at what is actually here when nothing seems to move.

If it resonates, you’re welcome to read it here. Take your time.
