Awareness is an embrace of eternity, a nudge from the infinite to move and bend when the slightest hint is offered. It gathers no reason, nor does it offer any. Awareness is always upon your shoulders, but its only reconciliation with human thought is when all thoughts are absent, and you bend freely to its touch. Look without seeing, see without looking. The nudge of eternity beckons your stillness.

The greatest challenge to awareness, and thus, few ever experience it, is accepting people as they are. Not in the “empathetic” way most pay lip service to, e.g., “walk in another person’s shoes,” or “they’re just not at my level of spirituality,” etc., but in recognizing that the force of light shines in us all equally, all the time. When you are busy looking at differences, you will always miss the light, and that is a darkness of your own making. YOU are the “shine” in light; the energetic force that permeates all of existence. If you are on, everyone is on. Give everyone a break. That is a “break” from your shading.

What you do in life will never exceed the miracle of life itself. YOU, as is, having done what you’ve done or nothing at all, are the greatest of all heavenly mysteries.

The side you take is inseparable from the side not taken, e.g., heads or tails are forever bonded by the coin upon which they are forged. Only your mind separates and makes one “side” the whole, and the loss in such an exercise is wealth only “wholeness” provides. “I am right, and you are wrong” is the disease of ego and separation from the very essence of oneness and awareness. Judgment cannot happen where no opposite (side) exists. Seeing this side or that separates you from the whole, and that is a separation the “whole” can ill afford. Heads or tails? Don’t make that call!

Awareness is not awakening to something new and profound that comes through intense learning, searching, and reconciliation with past experience. That’s just programming the latest and greatest spirit-speak your mind is caught up in. Awareness is, to use the programming metaphor, “the original program.” That is what you had before you knew anything or could speak anything. Your “original programming” has been replaced, and awareness is undoing whatever the original is replaced with, e.g., everything you think, believe, or know.
You cannot know what you already are by layering the so-called “new” on top of it. You can be IT by clearing all programming. Version 1.0, e.g., YOU is perfect and always has been. Don’t go back; just BE.

What you see is always skewed by what you know, e.g., what you’ve been taught. That is not seeing; it’s an agreement with a lifetime of gathered information stored in your mind that is not what is. To see without blinders, (knowledge) placed upon us would baffle, surprise, and hopefully humble us. We literally miss out on that much! You will never know what you see if you can describe it in any way. You were taught wrong, but not to worry. Clear your mind, and you will “see” again.

Ego loves the spectacular, the awe-inspiring, mind-jolting “burning bush,” calls it a miracle, and is quick to place profound meaning in it relative to current circumstances, missing the real miracles, which are infinite in number and everywhere. A dewdrop sparkling on a blade of grass, a flower or tree swaying in the wind, snow, smiles, winks, a kiss, the smell of rain newly fallen, a breath, the whisper “I love you,” in tender moments, sunsets, sunrises, a child skipping to school, crying, laughter, etc., etc., etc.
The big and bold is the chase of ego, and in that chase, real miracles go unrecognized, and life itself is reconciled to the mundane. Close your mind, and, in so doing, you open awareness. That is, nothing is missed, and all that you experience is one great big miracle. Wherever YOU are, whatever you are doing, they are there and for no other reason than to enrich your life with wonders.

Own what you think without the implication that what you think matters in any way to anyone else. You know it matters when you grow angry, frustrated, or excited by those who do not “think” as you do, and often even when they do. Have you ever observed when two or more are discussing an agreed-upon viewpoint, and the tenor of the discussion turns competitive between those who have the better reason for it? Humans jettison energy and do so for the most inane reasons, e.g., to prove a point that doesn’t matter. All other earthly life forms conserve energy, and nearly all humans credit them with greater awareness and sensitivity to what is going on in and around them. How do you think they do it? They live, not for others or because of others. They give nothing to the unimportant and, in so doing, have the energy to see what we (humans) rarely, if ever, see.
The fewer things you have to think about that you believe matter, the less you have to “think” at all. You’ll love what you see when you do!

Humans routinely believe that awareness comes through focus, but it doesn’t. The concentrated mind is busy and far too bound to the “focused on” to be aware. Without a thought or even the thought of a thought, expansiveness creeps into your field of view. Definition ceases, and all that is permeates the essence of YOU that has no mind. The baseline of infinity is nothing out of which is everything. In other words, “awareness” has no foundation, definition, or description, e.g., nothing to “focus” on. It is YOU, clear and unfettered by you. “Lose yourself to find YOUR-self.”

Awareness is indefensible. That is, you have no argument for it that stands up to your or anyone else’s sense of reason. It just cannot be reconciled with other forms of collective organization, institutions, or philosophy. It’s just you aware of YOU and utterly free of attachment to anything. If you think you know, you don’t. If you know, you know you don’t. Still, you are “in the world” and can fully participate in it, but you will do so without attachment, especially without argument. Awareness is liberation!
