...All fear is based on the ego's fear of annihilation (pp.28-30) Even wanting to be right instead of seeking, or being peace, is due to the ego's fear of death. I say die, ego, die! Horrific wars, and family feuds, are continously fought over this fear...yes, nations too, filled with fervent nationalism, unconscious pride, have collective egos...the scourge of this beautiful planet...seemingly unstoppable cancers, eating away, devouring we who sleep through it all. Disidentification from your mind means your sense of self is now derived from a much deeper place. Be here as the witness, your true nature! This is true power over all the world's power games and arguments, from Afghanistan to your morning kitchen breakfast table. Accepting and honoring the NOW frees you of suffering and that despot, the egoic mind. Dwell in the NOW! Always say "yes" to the NOW, this very instant, which is all there is, and who we are, all of this, brilliant Stillness. Realize deeply, and continiously, that all we ever 'have', is this present moment. ...peace, habsonfire

I'm currently reading Zukav's "Soul to Soul" and am discovering profound truths mostly relating to communication from the heart. He says our species is becoming multisensory and thus heart centered rather than head centered. Look at the daily news...could this have come at a better time?...Can't you see how this is presently happening to us? He says our personalities are becoming aligned with our souls. He uses different words than Eckhart. Right NOW I'm going to look at PTPON (pp.24-26) to see if there is syncronicity occuring. Let's see....hmmmm...If you have difficulty feeling your emotions, start by focusing on the inner energy field of your body. Feel it! You are no longer the emotion, you are the 'watcher' (multisensory!), the observing presence. Practice this, and all that is unconscious in you will be brought into the light of consciousness (Consciousness is All!) Zukav talks about the importance of feeling our emotions as well. For me, his 'multisensory' is the same as Tolle's 'watcher'. Wow!...let me take a conscious breath (smile). We, as a species, are becoming, right NOW as you are reading this blog, MULTISENSORY...or, the WATCHER, both the same, both beyond thought, both beyond emotion...much too much for the intellect and five senses to comprehend. Tolle ends Chapter 1 by saying if no emotion is present, take your attention more deeply into the inner energy field of your body. This is the doorway into BEING! Here is the wonderful part. Ken Wilber, (another beautiful personality) wrote about the Gateless Gate...he said basically that once you go through the door and you turn around to see where you came through, you see and realize there is no door at all! Right NOW, just this, as it is ,Beingness. This I find most beautiful...further words are not helpful, or even necessary. Rest in the STILLNESS. STILLNESS SPEAKS! peace and love, habsonfire

I am 21,757 days old,(see Peter Russell's web site)... be intensely conscious of the present moment!...this is the very essence of meditation...create a gap of no-mind where you are highly alert with no thinking whatsoever...practice everyday with small things: washing the dishes,walking in the forest, sitting on a rocky crag, gazing at the bluest sky, feel Infinity...breathing is the shortcut to now...in the car, upon entering, relax, listen to the silence, breathe in..out..in..out..peace ...you are peace...you can measure your success by the amount of inner peace you feel within...this is a feeling realization!...simply learn to disidentify from your mind...every time you create gaps, the light of consciousness grows stronger...again, that's each and every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, you create a space for more consciousness to come in to fill the vacuum(get it?)...you now are able to smile at the voice in your head that had you dancing a puppet dance ...now you are the dance, life is the dancer, as our friend Eckhrt liked to say...resonate with this and may peace and love reign supreme in you, and from your eyes and heart let the rays of spirit flow out as a blessing to all of it , as it is right here , right now, this instant.... Be It!....Eternal friend, and Source, Eternal Stillness! your true Self...One Taste(form and formless together as One)...habsonfire

...this feeling realization... abiding here... now... to regain the awareness of Being, like taking the hill, connectedness to the immeasureable... not to be able to feel this is the disease... the dis ease, our common affliction...the mind, a wonderful tool when not in control of us with it's illusiory screen of thoughts creating a world of separation...the illusion of disconnection!...freedom's birth is the realization that you are the watcher of the mind, you are deeper and beyond the mind...thought is just a bleep in the vast timeless realm of Being...but here's the best news!...you bloom ...you awaken NOW you realize that all things that really matter...BEAUTY...LOVE...CREATIVITY...JOY...INNER PEACE... arise from beyond the never never more ...that separate illusionary mind....rest in peace...habsonfire
