Scott Morrison: Awareness

Thinking about awareness is not awareness.

It is only when the continuous stream of
memory and fantasy,
words and images,
intentions and beliefs,
opinions and emotions,
and their associated physical sensations
is seen for what it is that the mind halts.

For at least a few seconds,
the meaninglessness of self-centered,
obsessive thinking is exposed
and thought has nothing useful to say.

If it is not trivialized,
this small but unmistakable window
is of enormous importance.

When you discover that self-centered thought,
including all 'spiritual self-centered thought,'
means nothing at all: 

There is no love,
no happiness,
no wisdom,
no intelligence in any of it: 

Then you have the opportunity to give yourself over,
to the process of truth,
awareness and unflinching,
uncompromising and honest reflection.

If you do that,
if you do that absolutely,
then the mind,
with all of its craving and clinging,
its monotonous and deceptive,
repetitious and fearful,
hurtful insanity,
no longer has any power. 

In the absence of all vested interests,
the power of this level of integrity and sincerity
can shake the foundations of the entire universe.

Why not stop - now - and find out if that is really true?
