Is it possible for AWARENESS to be DISTURBED? New MJ Awakening Blog July 31, 2018

Is Awareness ever disturbed? Or is it aware of disturbance? In other words, which actually changes, Awareness or that which it is presently perceiving?

For example, you seem to be upset about something. But look closer. Is Awareness actually upset or is it aware of a feeling of being upset arising? The mind may claim, “Who cares, I’m suffering!” But noticing this subtle but crucial distinction can make ALL the difference!

Once you realize you are what is aware of the feeling, then you are not attached to it, no longer taking it personally in any way, and are free to allow the feeling to be as it is.

And through your loving total acceptance of it, the lack of making it into a problem, the willingness to allow it as much time and space as it needs without any kind of agenda whatsoever, the contracted pain energy is healed/transmuted back into its natural stateless state, ever free boundless Awareness.

You don’t have DESIRE… DESIRE has You. New MJ Awakening Blog July 11, 2018

Meher Baba (1894-1969)

“It is self-interest (caused by low selfish desires) that is at the root of this universal condition of misery. Material desire is misery. When you want a thing, you crave for it until you get it—this is suffering. And when you do get it, you don’t experience the happiness you expected—this is disappointment, which is also suffering.”

AWARENESS is the only ever-present constant regardless of the experience. New MJ Awakening Blog July 6, 2018

AWARENESS is the only ever-present constant regardless of the experience.

All experiences have a duration.

All experiences come and go.

What doesn’t come and go?

Now.

Does CHANGE bring up fear in you? New MJ Awakening Blog July 4, 2018

That life is endlessly changing (and thus not controlable as how do you control change?) bring up any fear/resistance in you?

What a great opportunity to be present with this fear/resistance to change. Why? Because EVERYTHING, without exception, is made of change.

You, me, the stars, the sky, the earth, family members, pets, all of it… is ever changing… that’s its nature.

There is absolutely nothing, literally NOTHING, to hold on to.

LIFE IS MADE OF CHANGE.

Let everything go… all of it… breathe and release as you drop into timeless presence here/now.
