“I Could Be Wrong”

Acknowledging “I could be wrong” instantly shifts us from rigid certainty to open awareness. It pauses our habitual need to defend a position, creating a mental space where deep insights can surface.

This gap dissolves ego for a moment. Admitting fallibility drops the heavy burden of having to know everything. It stops automatic judgements and reactions, and allows for objective processing as the attention shifts from past beliefs to the current moment.

In the gap, we leave behind conceptual information (facts, labels, and theories) and rather, than becoming our thoughts, we realise pure awareness, which is pure observation before any thought.

The mind grows quiet because it is no longer projecting assumptions, and so the mind expands. Reality is perceived exactly as it is, unfiltered by personal bias.

In this way, pure awareness can never be wrong.

True wisdom is not about accumulating endless facts. It is about having the courage to be that quiet gap where genuine clarity dwells.

Actually, the ‘I’ is always mistaken.
When we use it, we are claiming.

There is no I, and nothing to claim.
The moment a self is claimed,
a division is created where none actually exists.
