Always Present, Aware, at Peace

Just be aware of the full spectrum of your experience – thoughts, feelings, sense perceptions. None of these are what you essentially are. You are the silent presence that is aware of them. In meditation, we step back from the content of experience to the silent, aware presence in the background – intimately one with but unconditioned by experience. Our peaceful, joyful true nature of simply being is effortlessly ever-present. It does not need to be manufactured, practised, or maintained. Each time we come back to our being, the habit of forgetting weakens, and eventually we find we are living in being, as being. For the mind, there is seeking and resisting, enlightenment and ignorance, but for the silent, aware presence we essentially are, there are none of these things. It just is what it is – seeking nothing, resisting nothing, always present, always aware, always at peace.
