INSIDE OF AWARENESS
Everything exists in you
Everything that exists, exists inside of awareness. Awareness is the root of existence. Things, ideas, feelings, sensations, experiences, your body, everyone else’s body, planets, galaxies, stars and all dimensions of reality are all inside of awareness. There is nothing outside of awareness that exists. Now you might not be aware of everything that exists inside of awareness, but you can be aware that you are aware, and that whatever you need to be aware of inside of awareness will always be revealed to you as you need to be aware of it.
Noticing awareness is simple. It is the fact that you are awake, aware, present, that there is something that is noticing. The more you notice that something is noticing, the more you rest into pure awareness. Pure awareness is wakefulness without focus on the content of awareness. Everything is made out of this awareness, that’s why everything exists inside of it. There is nothing other than awareness. There is no non-awareness or non-existence. By definition non-existence does not exist. Therefore non-existence doesn’t exist. You can create an experience of something not existing inside of awareness, but that is an experience of non-existing and not non-existence because there is an awareness there experiencing it.
While this might all seem a bit confusing or complex it really isn’t. The fact that you are aware is undeniable and it is by the fact that you are aware that you can experience anything and everything that you do. We often confuse ourselves as the body through which we feel sensations through, yet we are what is aware of the body. The body is not aware of us. Therefore the body is inside of awareness and we are aware of the sensations of it. The body is inside of you, you are not inside of it. The more you rest into noticing pure awareness, the more you can be aware of, inside of awareness. When we confuse ourselves as the body we limit what we can feel and sense to it. This is why it seems that we can’t feel what is happening inside of other people’s bodies or things going on in other parts of the world or the galaxy. It is also why as we become increasingly self-aware we can feel and sense other people more easily just like we sense ourselves and we can tune into things outside of our immediate environment or even have contact with beings in other dimensions. This isn’t an experience of overwhelm or of taking things “on” for other people, but rather it is simply a shared experience of ourselves from a larger, more inclusive perspective.
PURE AWARENESS IN YOUR TRUE SELF
Creator of experience
You’ve never experience another person. Yep that’s right. You’ve only ever experienced your interpretation of them. Everyone, or every focalized point of awareness inside of the one awareness, is having their own experience of everything and everyone they experience. And everything and everyone they experience gets experienced through the filters and lens that they have in place inside of the their energetic makeup. This is why you only ever experience your interpretation of someone or something. In a way you could say we are all in own little realities that are inclusive of everything and everyone we experience, and while there might be some agreed upon experiences and attributes that seem collective to our experiencing, at the end of the day we are the only one aware inside of our awareness. We are the only one looking out from the lens we look from. Therefore we are doing the determining of whatever it is we are experiencing.
This awareness that is doing the “aware-ing” is you. There is no other you. You are pure awareness. As pure awareness you experience yourself in novel ways and create new modes and forms of expression and creation. These, let’s say outward expressions even though nothing is really out, then come back and inform you at the level of your pure aware self. This is the process of experience and creation. You are the creator of this experience and expression of yourself. This is quite a jump of perspective from thinking of yourself as a person in body on planet Earth. The person in a body on planet Earth is your current iteration of your experience, but it is not you. It is your creation.
As we surrender our personality’s views, perspectives, and meanings about things that we hold so dear, we give up only our experience of limitation. We rest into our larger self (aka pure awareness), which actually knows what our personality self constantly feels separate from. Surrender is not a loss of anything except for the perception of loss. Surrender is a remembering, a coming home, a welcoming, a gaining of insight, wisdom, knowledge and love from which we feel so disconnected from when we are identified as a being a person inside of a body. Remember your body is inside of you. You are the awareness that knows the body, not the personality in the body.
Waking up, ascending and enlightenment, is nothing other than the recognition of your self as pure awareness. It is the conscious living and creating from the recognition of your true self as awareness. The full recognition of your self as the creator of your experience of your body, your environments and all of things you create. Rest assured this is not a heavy burden that your personality self has to somehow figure out how to do and create. Rather you expand beyond your ordinary thinking mind with its limited views and perspectives into what feels more like a field of pure awareness that is pregnant with energy and life. This vitality is you. This potentiality is your playground. You are free inside of your experience with the recognition that you are not your experience, but rather the creator of it.
