AWAREness ReMINDer - Nagual LoneWolf - 05-16-2011
Awareness is a state which emanates from the nagual part
within us. It is the perception of the now, of the present moment in
all of its reality. In a state of awareness, we are not necessarily
thinking - we are just being there, doing what we are doing, walking,
working, talking etc. Experiencing and perceiving everything with
clarity and objectivity.
When we are aware we are simply in the
moment, using all our senses, perceiving everything that is around us
and within us. Time seems to stand still. We start to experience
happiness and awaken our true intelligence because we feed our divine
aspect, our consciousness, that which we generally completely
neglect.This is the edge of the nagual.However...
We may think we are
aware, how could we not be...? What we do not realize is that our
awareness is only a fraction of what it could be and, although a natural
state, it takes will and effort to remain in awareness, in a state of
perception.
For example:
Imagine a simple thing like walking home from work. Which would be the most typical scenario for us:
Walking,
being aware of ourselves within our environment - that may encompass
other people, trees, cars, buildings, sounds, smells etc. etc.
Or
Walking
home in a hurry, thinking about what we are going to cook for dinner or
how unfair our boss or partner was at work today, etc. Totally unaware
of what is around us.
It is most likely for us to be in scenario
b'. This is the way we have learned to behave. We normally know little
or nothing else. The majority of us are lost in thought and would not
know what is happening around us, unless we suddenly heard a loud sound
or came across a dangerous situation.
Our moments of awareness come
and go randomly and, when we are aware, we are still only half so
because we are not experiencing the full potential of Awareness
Most
people have at some time in their lives experienced briefly a measure
of their potential. During a moment of peace and tranquility, perhaps
while in the wilderness people can experience sensations of peace with
the environment - with the world. These times, instead of being the
exception, can become our normal state.
Athletes have exercised
their bodies so that they are more developed than those who don't. So
too we need to exercise our awareness to make it stronger. A muscle not
used wastes away - it is the same with awareness. The more we use our
awareness the greater our capacity to use it grows.
This is not
all however. We also need to get rid of all the negative states we have
within to truly open up our awareness. It is these negative emotions and
thoughts that cloud our awareness and make us almost asleep during our
waking moments. Observing within we can see all these states and can
understand and gradually eliminate them. This increases the amount of
consciousness that we have while at the same time decreases the
subconscious. This brings about a lasting increase in our level of
awareness.
A person with full awareness is a warrior who is
leading a very spiritual life and has none of this anger, jealousy,
fear, hate etc in their lives. They are not distracted by those random
thoughts which just seem to come upon us without purpose, they have
mental and emotional discipline.This is a real key to life.
We
activate the divine part within us, our consciousness, this provides the
basis for spiritual and psychic growth and development.
Latent faculties within such as clairvoyance, telepathy, intuition, ESP etc, have a chance to be activated.
True intelligence is awakened.We learn to use
Intent. We catch a glimpse of our Second Attention.
Thus
We conserve our energy.
Directing
the awareness within at the same time as we perceive the external
world, we can observe thoughts, emotions and feelings, this enables us
to achieve self-knowledge and to change.
We can practice self-observation without being quickly re-absorbed into the mind.
We can be in the correct inner state for any event or situation that we go through.
Our
sense of Awareness gives us a connection with other people - with the
world. If we feel that connection with the environment then we would not
pollute it.
If we all had that union with other people we would not
start fights or wars. Anyone who is seeking a more spiritual life needs
to become more aware.
Look at the place that you are in, use your
five senses to perceive it, then at the same time look inside at
thoughts, feelings or emotions, you will notice that these change the
perception of reality which you perceive with your five senses, they
colour it or even make it disappear.
Now observing these within,
come back to the observation of the place you are in. You need to do
this with everything that appears within, again and again, so that you
perceive where you are clearly, without that perception being altered by
thoughts, emotions or feelings. Learn how to watch inwardly and
outwardly at the same time.
You can do this with any activity
during the day, try it when for example you are washing the dishes, you
will notice how it takes an effort to be aware of what you are doing and
how little time is spent actually being aware in the normal course of a
day.
Learning to be aware might save your life.
