Living In Awareness – Day 2
Each moment is a new moment. It may envelop another moment, or roll from or into another moment, but each is new, complete, and total. However, because of the habitual engagement with our thoughts, our present moment is instantly contaminated by our past or some projected future.
As you embark upon this journey of ‘living in Awareness,’ it is important to have an understanding of time; which we will go into next. It is EMPOWERING to have the knowledge that each moment is new, complete, and total. This concept may be difficult to grasp, but the deeper you go into this challenge, this idea, this knowingness will become easier and easier to understand, recognize, and embrace.
Today’s Challenge: At the end of this video, please print out the next installment of “Living In Awareness, The Tenses Of Time.” I want you to become aware of the concepts of time, and what that entails. Things you may want to consider after you read “The Tenses Of Time,” and begin the challenge for the day could be to watch the mind throughout the day. Watch and see when the mind is focusing on the past, or projecting itself into the future. As you truly watch, I think you will be amazed.
I also want you to spend some time thinking, and possibly journaling about an event in your past. Think about all the players in this story, and then imagine if you were hearing it from one of the other peoples’ perspectives. I want you to become aware that EVERYONE has a story, and sometimes if you were to hear the story being told from a different perspective, would it sound like a different story?
