feeling mind

Close your eyes for just a moment
Feel your own mind
Now open your eyes again and feel yourself aware of what’s around you

Now do it once more
Close your eyes;  (mind)
Open your eyes;  (everything else)

Do it a couple more times
Then stop
And consider this:

The experience of the mind
Is not so much the experience of looking out to the universe
As it is the experience of the universe looking in to us

For even when our eyes are closed
Something
Is still peeking in

We simply witness this experience first hand
So our first instinct
Is to get it backward

But stop and think about it, try to feel what I am talking about
Your awareness is not so much you looking out
As it is everything around you looking in

Shocking isn’t it!
You may even feel a bit violated
But now you know how the universe feels :)

Still not buying it?  Just ask yourself
Is it you
Who have set your own mind into its basic looking mode?

Or is it something else?
Which rubbed your mind
Awake?

Alas, once we can understand and feel the true reality of mind
We suddenly realize it is not God that is the mystery to be figured out
We are

Thus to find ourselves already IN God with God gazing into us
Rather than UNDER God with God gaping over us
Is the first spiritual step
To conscious Life.
