Did you ever think how your life is created as reality, and yet how much are you conscious of, and what is actually real?<\/p>\n<p>We live inside a bubble of perception.<\/p>\n<p>Everything that seems real isn\u2019t. Everything is an illusion, and arguably the only thing \u201creal\u201d is the soul.<\/p>\n<p>What people are seeking is seeking them. What people are seeking is inside of them already. It is waiting, it is asking them to wake up. It is tapping them on the shoulders.<\/p>\n<p>What you focus on is really reality for you, but it\u2019s not \u201ctrue reality,\u201d if there is such a thing. Absolute reality is beyond human perception.<\/p>\n<p>The world I see around me is filled with people rushing around doing things, and trying so hard to make it in the world. What would happen if everything stopped\u2014just momentarily\u2014and everything went silent. Imagine the difference it would make.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine what it would be like to live in a mindful world, where people could actually be fully present, and lend their presence to their life. Bringing the full force of mindfulness, one\u2019s conscious awareness to each instant, would be power of such magnitude it would stop the world. And stopping the world, would change the world.<\/p>\n<p>We could become aware of our choices, become aware of ourselves and how we have created our circumstances, how we are responsible for everything in our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Everything we do is based on the choices we make.<\/p>\n<p>The deep subconscious programs that run are consciousness that is usually beyond our awareness or conscious responsibility. These programs are often not even ours and we are probably unaware that they run our lives. We are victims of our programming to a degree. The moment you become aware of this is the moment you \u201cwake up\u201d and start becoming consciously aware of these programs. At that moment, one becomes responsible for one\u2019s choices.<\/p>\n<p>Everything I do is based on the choices I make. I am only responsible for how I perceive what unfolds, which I desire to be enjoyable. The more responsible I am, the better choices I will make. Choices are based on what we are aware of, which is admittedly and pitifully little.<\/p>\n<p>I dream of having conscious freedom to decide, to choose my own path. True freedom is not to be free of others, it is to be free of our conditioning, the one who controls us.<\/p>\n<p>To know that you are a soul\u2014that is freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cOut beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field.
