Who Am I

“Questioner: In certain situations in life I feel blocked by a fear which prevents me from acting. How can I be free from this obstacle?

Jean Klein: First free yourself from the word, the concept, ‘fear’. It is loaded with memory. Face only the perception. Accept the sensation completely. When the personality who judges and controls is completely absent, when there is no longer a psychological relationship with the sensation, it is really welcomed and unfolds. Only in welcoming without a welcomer can there be real transformation.

We are in essence one with all existence; when we truly observe ourselves there is ultimately no observer, only observation—awareness.”

In his well known, clear and lucid style, Jean Klein offers a book that is fundamentally about ourselves, about our own reality, and about how we can start to realise our true nature, our inner stillness and wholeness.

This book came to life through dialogues which took place in different countries with people from all walks of life, and especially through stimulating conversa- tions I had with Emma Edwards. These often touched the border of the inexpressible. I deeply thank her for writing down what cannot easily be written, the nearest formulation to what is beyond words, so that the mind of the reader may be enlivened and clarified. Only a clear mind dares to give itself up to its Origin, that which has been and ever will be.
