Emptying Your Cup Exercise Help

[kieranperez]

So I just started reading The Book of Not Knowing by Peter Ralston. I just read over the first contemplation exercise - Emptying Your Cup. The excercise says to go over everything I know to be true and really question if it's a real experience or just a belief. For one, this just seems like such an overwhelming thing to pull up to mind which is a bit intimidating. What's really on my mind though is, given all that I've learned through @Leo Gura , I keep hitting this wall where I just automatically come to the conclusion where almost everything I used to hold to be true is just a belief. As in, I feel like I just understand and take his word on these matters that it makes it hard to really contemplate. If that makes any sense?

@kieranperez Watch every video Leo did with enlightenment or enlightened in the title.  And watch the Neti Neti video.  There's like 10 videos you gotta watch.  And do the exercises as Leo guides you in the videos.  This will give you some solid context.  Also watch Leo's video on Contemplation.  That one is right up your alley.
