The most important chapter!!
If small things have a power to
disturb you, then who you think you are is exactly that; small.
That will be your unconscious
belief.
Now after reading first 4 parts, you
might be ready to take it to the next level, the level of
consciousness…
a journey inside, the awareness behind
the thought and form. That's who you are!
There are 2 things you
should be aware of; You and Yourself. One of those is the voice in
your head called Ego which means thoughts, opinions, experiences and
generally identifying with a form. The other is the stillness,
awareness, consciousness observing the thought, observing the ego.
The ego will never be satisfied because it always seeks
happiness/suffering and confirmation outside and identifies with
thoughts and things (forms) outside. The Ego we cannot get rid of,
but we can recognize it in ourselves and others. You are not your
thoughts, opinions, your job or your car, your clothes or the body.
You just ARE… And things just IS…The key to
everything is to be present in the moment with everything you do..
because you can only be where you are at the moment…so accepting
the situations as they arise and taking appropriate action from the
acceptance. Many people are not living in the NOW and are stuck in
the past or projecting themselves into the future…when really none
of those exist. When do you recall past? Now! When do you experience
future? Only when you are there…and then it will be NOW… so you
see there is only present moment… With time you will start
to erase duality; right and wrong, good and bad, days, dates and perception of
time..because time always IS. Words like future, planning, I have
to…labeling people by their form and ego, labeling things just to
know what you think they are…will disappear from your level of
existence. You will realize that there is nothing and nobody out
there that can bring happiness and better life to you. Ultimately,
all things are small things, because all things are transient.
Death is a opposite to birth, life has no opposite. Life is eternal
ocean of consciousness, that take different forms in order to
experience and grow. Recognize that behind every Ego there is a
consciousness, a stillness that are the same in all humans, therefore
we can love ALL! Unfortunately so many are still caught by the thought
and think that they are a form…but judge not, just recognize it for
what it is and be a guide..a presence of stillness… You need to
become observer of your own ego and your own consciousness, in
order to see it in others. When things happen, people tend to resist
and react upon it, reacting is empowering, accepting present
situation allows transformation.
Human Being =
Human is a form.
Being is awareness behind the form.
How can you become more aware of the
present moment?
Be present by giving 100%
attention to what you are doing, for example you stand in the shower
feel the water dropping on your face, and running down your hands,
sense your body being there at that moment and there is the only
place your mind should be as well. The awareness behind the mind is
there observing.
Meditation - it’s not rocket
science, just sit comfortably and breath (look for tips on you
tube)
With meditation you
rise above though and create open space, space for new information to
enter.
Everything I
know, you know! But that information needs to be activated. The information comes from the source which you will be connected with.
Do not let negative energy take
you below thought or keep you in the thinking mode so do not watch
tv, read news and magazines, do not engage in any discussion that
has with “world out there” to do. Don’t talk about money,
carrier or worship of celebrities. All that is just illusion that
grabs you out of your consciousness.
Avoid negative people and negative
situations. You are never alone, only ego needs the stimulance from
form, from outside.
Do not react. If somebody
calls you for example stupid, recognize that your ego gets hurt and
not your divine you. Recognize that is also the other person’s ego
that said that to you, and not the awareness behind. Ego wants
drama, reacting on it means empowering it! That you resist
persists!
Learn to accept pain, the
feelings..everything…Become friendly with the present moment.
What you accept transforms.
Surround yourself with positive
energy, positive people and just be… no need to do anything…
Close your eyes and take a deep
breath couple times a day.
Stop! Look up! Observe the
sky for couple of seconds.
Stop! Listen! There is
noise around you, try to hear the stillness behind the noise.
Stop! Feel! The water going
down your thought.
Watch inspiring
movies/documentaries that can open your mind to different realities
and possibilities.
Read books can open your mind to
different realities and possibilities.
Listen to high frequency music, as
for example Mozart at least 15 min a day. Find timeless music,
positive vibrations and songs, meditation music also alternative
artist.
Make plans with conscious
presence, for example book a trip, but do not project yourself
there. You will be there when you are, projecting your self will
mean that you are escaping now.
Connect with animals and
children. They have less ego and therefore more connection to the
awareness and higher consciousness.
Connect with nature; sun, water,
earth, trees, mountains, grease…why not go for a run in the rain?
Everything around you is a
meditation and you can practice on it. Give it 100% attention but do
not judge it or label it. For example look at a flower and just
admire how peaceful and beautiful it is…or a tree.. Anything of
the nature brings you closer to the present moment.
Workout (at home, or in the
nature) not gym, (gym is a system), do yoga, swim, run, climb,
walk..anything that activates your body physically will take away
your attention from thought processing, and keep you into the
present moment.
Eat healthy and balanced foods, do
not eat much at one time…
Abolish necessities, buying
and consuming things of form can be a pleasant experience, but not
necessity and definitely nothing you should identify with. You can
enjoy/admire things of form without necessarily own it. Example,
picking up flowers may seems harmless, but that’s actually Ego
that wants it to be “yours”, why can’t flowers just be where
they are in their natural state and you can just admire them and
also so others can do the same?!
Your primary goal is to be within
alignment with your body-mind-soul. The balance…Everything else is secondary, for example external things. Because what you are internally, you will manifest externally.
When you understand all this and live
by it, which is a process that takes time, the time that always just
is and you do not have to “take time” because there is only now…
you will find that happiness follows you like a shadow that never
leaves… =)
So where are you in this moment?
If small things have a power to
disturb you, then who you think you are is exactly that; small. That
will be your unconscious belief.
The inspirational book for this subject
is “A New Earth” by Eckhart Tollie. Also this book was part of
Oprah book selection where the writer and Oprah are discussing and
answering many practical questions. There are 10 classes available on
you tube, I really recommend it…
