When I am loving awareness I’m aware of everything outside, but pulling into the heart, the spiritual heart brings me to loving awareness. I’m aware of my thoughts, but loving awareness is simply witnessing them. And loving awareness is in the moment. I have thoughts about the past and future, and those are not helpful, so I dive deep into the present and the presence and in this present moment we will find loving awareness.

This moment is love. I am infinite. I am loving awareness.

Can we find truth in grief?

Each time we form an attachment to another human being it is, of course, inevitable that sooner or later, that one of you is going to die. So that, in a way, the nature of attachment to human beings has loss built-in.

That’s part of what makes life precious and frightening at the same moment. The prospect of loss is what actually intensifies the attachment. The attachment contains the recognition at some level of the changing nature of phenomena – that everything is changing all the time. And that it’s uncertain.
