Presence is awareness without thought.
The very structure of how you think is linked to hundreds of years of conditioning. Conditioned thinking leads you to live by that same conditioning. When you are awakened you recognize your thoughts as conditioned thinking, and you become the witness to those thoughts.
When you are locked in a way of being (conditioning), you close off from the infinite and indefinable universal energy.
When awakened you observe your thoughts as the witness. In some way you discover you hold the key to unlocking a new beginning. Instead of asking yourself what do I want, you now ask yourself what am I putting out to the world, and what purpose does life have for me?
Many people only hear their thoughts and are lost in them. This is chaotic, creating anxiety and stress as you try to identify what you want, setting goals and striving to change. You strive to become, rather than be.
When you sit in stillness and silence you touch into the essence of who you are as spirit having a human experience, slowing shedding the layers of perceived reality – and this can happen quickly when you are in the present moment of consciousness.
In stillness you become alert in life to experience the present moment with peace. You take responsibility for shifting your perspective to that of witnessing your thoughts, noticing what your mind and thoughts are doing, and the effect it has on others. You are awakened and present to experience living life with choice that is nurtured by spirit, not ego.
- You are not your thought processes.
- Slow down, notice how you respond to everyday situations.
- Observe your experience with new found peace and consciousness.
- Be the stillness and tune into the freshness and aliveness of life.
This week repeat to yourself daily: “I am a peaceful spirit in a human body”
