Quote by Swami Dhyan Giten
Emptiness and the not-I is the quality that arises when the therapist consciously moves out of his own way without hindering the therapeutic process through his own ideas, attitudes, expectations and concepts. He is present, available and responds with the truth in the moment.
Summary
This quote highlights the importance of the therapist's ability to detach from their own biases and preconceived notions during the therapeutic process. By letting go of their own ideas, the therapist creates a space of emptiness and non-attachment, allowing them to be fully present and receptive to the client's experience. This state of being "not-I" enables the therapist to respond genuinely and truthfully in the moment, without imposing their personal agenda or beliefs onto the client. Ultimately, this approach promotes an authentic and transformative therapeutic relationship.
