Understanding that’s alive is a “felt” recognition of a deeper truth that transforms us- unifying consciousness with presence- and illuminating our clear sanity to flow and emerge with ease from one experience to the next.
The light of our awareness is focused through “mindsight”… Throughout these insights, we have made numerous references to the tool of “mindsight”. In simplistic terms, we might refer to it as the light of awareness. It emanates from our open awareness and free attention. It is highly sensitive, illuminated, refined, flexible, and reflective in nature. […]
The “emerging self” is a deep inquiry into experience in a way that allows the truth of that experience to reveal itself.
Presence is our dedicated attention to sensing and being with our immediate “felt experience”- directly and openly.
A person who is of mindful intelligence manifests a luminescence- a radiance that is constantly modulating- a beam of light so fine and refined to be diffusively inclusive yet penetratingly focused.
“Mindful Intelligence” is a quality of consciousness- a state of being- directly immersed and diffused- an illuminated presence of refined essence inherent to us all. It is the primordial light of our living and emerging nature.
Modulating our attention and our focus is a highly adaptive trait- we can open and narrow our attention responsively to changing experiences.
The apex of our evolution as a species is our ability to pay attention to how we attend. It is this mastery that allows us to alter our reality.
Our feelings today often echo our past experiences. What may have been need not apply to our present situation.
Using open awareness in our practice, we simply notice, name, and move on. Noting mental activities as they arise in awareness is the work of mindful attention.
