Outside our head

Posted on by philipdodson

We get sucked into things, it consumes us and we are actually unconscious of anything around us, unaware of our breathing, our senses dulled, our appreciation of our environment switched off, not appreciating anything. This can be for a few moments, but rarely so short.

This isn’t a one-off thing, this is the unconscious life of our mind-obsessed existence, which consumes nearly all of our life every single day.

We can, of course, choose a different option. We can choose to be aware, awake, conscious, free from the mind, in this moment. Then we can experience the magic of life that is outside of our head.

The light of this moment

Our ability to create light is infinite and so is our opportunity to share it with the world.

Each new moment is an opportunity to do that. Here now.

However, our conditioning is to always be looking to the past to see how we were hard done by and create anger or looking to the future to see what might go wrong and create psychological fear. When we are in our subconscious, we are in our minds and its repetitive thought patterns, the ones we get again and again and, yep, again.

Instead, if we remain in this present moment, we are at peace, away from thought, and we will spread our calm and peace to others too. This is how things change, by each one of us staying conscious and away from anger and fear, past and future. Past and future not real, they do not exist outside the mind and are the darkness.

Our soul is the light of this moment that will shine for us and others.
