You true self shines as the One Awareness, the Central Sun, the all-seeing-eye, the eternal God-force that is not separate from you, but is you and no one else but you. :-) al.

But I am working on climbing up a level and try to look from the perspective of the One. Not very successfully though, I might add. One bit of mild success is that I have found that there seems to be some levels to awareness, such as being absorbed in thoughts is different from being absorbed in thoughts while consciously knowing that one is being absorbed in thoughts. Maybe the latter state is a form of mindfulness. al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
