Is the Approach to Let Go of Experience Vedantic?

Your advice to ‘let go of experience and experience will let go of you’ – is this a distinct step or an inner posture of self-abidance? Rupert says: ‘Normally, we are lost in the content of experience. And we give experience power over us, we consent to allow our thoughts and feelings to overwhelm us. No thought or feeling is overwhelming . . . It’s not experience that does it to us. It is we that consent, albeit unconsciously, to losing ourself in experience . . . So the first step, let go of experience, come back to your being . . . And then when we let go of experience, we find that experience loses its hold over us . . . Both [Vedantic and Tantric] are legitimate approaches. They both lead you to the same recognition.’
