INSIGHT

Spirit Is Pure Awareness

  • Spirituality is about spirit, which is pure awareness itself, not the objects of consciousness such as thoughts or emotions.
  • Awareness gives meaning to all objects, and without it, nothing has meaning or existence to us.

Consciousness Shines on Objects

  • Consciousness is like a light shining on infinite objects, revealing them but not being those objects.
  • You are consciousness itself, not your thoughts or emotions, which are merely things you are aware of.
