How aware are you really ?

What is awareness? How do we perceive awareness?

Awareness is the state of being, it is our beingness in All That is, it is who we are and what we are. Being aware is being conscious, our consciousness arrives from the awareness by bringing attention to something we are bringing consciousness to it. Awareness allows us to know what is going on within consciousness. Consciousness allows us to know what is going on in the mind and the mind allows us to know what is going on with the body.

Our awareness can expand or shrink, depending on our level of consciousness. If we bring our consciousness to ourselves we can observe our mind in action. What are the thoughts that we think on a daily basis? Are we feeding ourselves with what we want to experience or do we get stuck in the midst of our engagements with others, searching for revelations of how we could impose our way on someone, how we could change something or how we could get away with something?

We are driven by our emotions and our state of worthiness or rather an unworthiness.

Our emotional state is a part of our awareness state of being, that what we think of ourselves is what we see in others.

The difficulties in our lives, the sufferings, the hurts, the wrongs creates painful moments, however, at the same time those moments create in us another state of beingness such as determination, revenge, jealousy, desires, the need to achieve, to own, to sabotage, to rule, to control, to get it right, to make it better, to correct, to re-do, we get so consumed with it, we get lost in our own mind game.

As one state of Being arise the next is created at the same time, the polarities of this world are the fundamental reasons for the suffering on a personal level. The Yin and Yang are always present, it is a never ending match of games that we are playing.

Being aware is to be aware of our own games in mind, being able to break them down and free ourselves from the repetitiveness of actions.

Our emotional state often wants to justify our level of awareness by feeling into the moment of the experience. Anger for example is often turned inwards and in its full power has the ability to create resistance to life itself. The end result is often pain, illness, unsatisfaction.

At the same time, how much knowledge and awareness do we actually possess to even understand our actions? We are often unaware of the reason behind many of our issues whether they are physical, emotional, or social. Many of our beliefs are created unconsciously, often in childhood, and with some, we arrive when we are born. Our journey, whether we know it or not is to bring our attention to these unconscious programs so we can free ourselves from the illusion of this world, transcend our mind and becoming what we truly are, Love as a state of beingness, that emanates from our heart.
