Exist in the present; die to your past

[Guest guest]

Exist in the present; die to your past - Mata Amritanandamayi

The mind is your past. Die to your past and you will suddenly become fully

conscious. The past is nothing but dead debris. Get rid of it and you will

learn how to witness. When you die to your past, to your thoughts and your

memories, then you will be fully in the present. When you truly exist in

the present, you are simply witnessing. The past can only exist as long as

there are thoughts. When the thoughts are eliminated, the past disappears

and you abide in your own Self. The Self does nothing but witness. The Self

is not a person - it is Pure Awareness. It is completely detached from all

phenomena. It is the state of becoming the one subject, the core of your

existence.
