Silence is not emptiness. It is presence.
When thoughts fall silent, awareness remains. It was there before them too.

Awareness · presence · "I Am" I am · presencePractice of conscious presence
A meditative practice directed towards the maturing of consciousness, the deepening of presence and the direct recognition of "I Am". Thoughts, feelings and bodily experiences remain part of experience, but they are no longer the only place from which we know ourselves.
Individual sessions, workshops, live meetings and schools are held in Serbian.
What is the practice of conscious presence?
From experience to awareness
The practice of conscious presence turns attention from what we think, feel and experience towards awareness itself, in which all of this appears.
Nothing is suppressed or fixed. We learn to recognise the difference between what changes and the presence that witnesses it.
At the heart of the practice is the direct experience of "I Am".
Presence · I AM
When you set aside everything you know about yourself, something remains.
That which quietly knows that you exist, before every thought and role, was never lost. You only need to free yourself from everything you are not, so that what you are remains.
The body feels. Awareness perceives.
Bodily experiences come and go. That which perceives them remains present.
I am. Even before feeling.Ask: to whom does this thought come?
When attention turns towards that which perceives, a thought is seen as what it is: an appearance in awareness.

Presence deepens
Conscious presence is not a momentary state to be achieved. It matures through practice and an ever clearer recognition of what is present before thoughts, roles and personal story.
Practice in life
Presence that is lived
The practice is not separate from everyday life. It deepens precisely in relationships, work, movement, silence and in meeting whatever life brings.
Presence gradually becomes the place from which you live, and not something you remember only during meditation.
Experience
Before explanation, experience
Conscious presence cannot be understood through concepts alone. It can be explored, but its essence becomes clear through direct experience.
That is why practice is more important than theory: not to produce a new belief, but to allow a clearer seeing of what already is.
Thoughts come and go. Awareness remains.
When you recognise that you are not only what you think, the experience stays the same, but the place from which you live it changes.
