I was struck by this, "In order to experience ourselves and our environment as the single expanse of fundamental consciousness, we need to accept and inhabit our physical reality fully" [Well, I reordered it.] To remain conscious of consciousness Itself, I have to be fully accepting of my sensory, emotional, cognitive and social experience in this mammalian body. It sounds so simple...to be present in every moment...but the whole thing is mesmerizing. It's one thing to transcend the human experience; it's whole different matter to remain clear in the middle of it all.
I love a good story—some thoughts that whirl around and create surprises and entertain me. I wonder if I’ll reach a point when I appreciate pristine stillness all the time.
