Awakening
Wednesday, April 30th, 2014One moment at a time- one task at a time. We stay the course and simply allow other things to ‘fall away’… all the while releasing ourselves from the urge to be ‘somewhere else’, or to be doing ‘something else’.
One moment at a time- one task at a time. We stay the course and simply allow other things to ‘fall away’… all the while releasing ourselves from the urge to be ‘somewhere else’, or to be doing ‘something else’.
The ‘larger perspective’ or ‘bigger picture’ in life may be grounded in the realization that all living things are deeply inter-connected and inter-dependent with one another.
When certain thoughts persistently arise in awareness, what might they ‘say’ about our preoccupations, concerns, worries, desires, etc?
Awareness is our inner capacity to self-regulate- to keep the ‘mind’ in check- to observe without indulging its habitual ‘chatter’, and the thoughts, feelings, and impulses that sustain it.
The body knows. The heart knows. The mind wants to know.
