infinite awareness

“When the mind disappears, time disappears. Hence, down the ages, the mystics have sad that time and mind are nothing but two aspects of the same coin. Mind cannot live without time and time cannot live without mind. Time is a way for the mind to exist. Hence all the buddha’s have insisted, live in this moment: to live in this moment is meditation; to be simply here and now is meditation.

Those who are simply here now is this very moment with me are in meditation. This is meditation – the cuckoo calling from far away and the airplane passing and the crows and the birds and all is silent and there is no movement in the mind. You are not thinking of the past and you are not thinking of the future. Time has stopped. The world has stopped. Stopping the world is the whole art of meditation. And to live in the moment is to live in eternity. To taste the moment with no idea, with no mind, is to taste immortality.”

- Osho

“Any form of conscious meditation is not the real thing: it can never be.
Deliberate attempt to meditate is not meditation.
It must happen; it cannot be invited.
Meditation is not the play of the mind nor of desire and pleasure.
All attempt to meditate is the very denial of it
Only be aware of what you are thinking and doing and nothing else.
The seeing, the hearing, is the doing,
without reward and punishment.”

- J krishnamurti

My advice to you is to shift your perspective from little me to someone who can achieve way more than they think they can, if you think about not getting this or that, then stop thinking and just know you are more than any short term limiting thoughts you manifest from time to time (or when it all feels like too much). Knowing is more important than thinking especially in times when you think things won’t happen or will turn out badly, instead just know things will turn out ok and that everything will be good.

We live courtesy of mind made prisons which we create for ourselves and then back up them up by what we see on TV, hear from others or what our peers tell us what can and cannot be done in this life. But this is all illusion because there is great power in you and in everyone else alive today, and a belief that goes against this fundamental truth is pure fiction. Go on and believe what you want in life, this is certainly a choice available to you, but perhaps a choice you might want to make is the one where you choose to live free of fear and mind made limitations which serve to keep you living a life far removed from what you could be living. Perhaps one of the saddest aspects of life is that we are all powerful humans with an ability to create amazing lives but ins
