Our life is part of an extraordinarily complex web of relationships. In order to engage in these relationships in a way that feels right to us,it is essential that we understand ourselves. But what does it actually mean to understand oneself? In this book, we inquire into this question together, so that if we comprehend deeply what it means to understand oneself, we can go on to understand ourselves without needing to follow the prescriptions of systems invented by others. Journeying together, we will discover that a radical understanding of oneself awakens an intense sensitivity to what is new in every moment, a state of attention and innocence in which love becomes the foundation of our being, bringing us into the right relationship with all aspects of life.
