Mindful Knowledge Is Not Wisdom Of The Heart

Wisdom begins with realizing that you do not know anything - and that means all of the philosophy, concepts and ideas that you carry around of what you think your self might be like or should be like.

None of your "knowledge" has brought you to the realization that you are this one that is looking through your very eyes right now and how "impersonal" this one is.

Your "knowledge" has not brought you relief from the pain and suffering that continues to frustrate you because of your continued belief in who you think you are.

It is only when you begin to see that all of your "knowings" have not delivered you of anything but the idea that you think that you now "know" something that you did not "know" prior to the "knowing," that wisdom begins to shine its light. At this point you might be ready to accept something "real" instead of more knowledge.

What is "real" is who you are. It is an inescapable fact and also the only fact that you have of yourself. You are. You can consciously be who you are because you already are the one that has always been true of you. It is what is looking through your eyes right now.

When you bring your conscious attention to this "motion of seeing" that is flowing through your eyes you "become" this "aliveness" that is flowing through the eyes.

In the immediacy of this "seeing" you are no longer perpetuating who you think you are. You have to let go of what you think you are.

The moment that you forget to realize this one that is looking through your eyes you are then back to perpetuating who you think you are.

It is as simple as this.

You either consciously be who you are or you attempt to believe who you think you are over the top of the one that is already true of you and suffer the consequences of that belief.

Who you are still is no matter what you do. Consciously be or unconsciously be - pretending to be who you think you are. You are that which everything arises out of.

Be you and be inexplicably happy in the richness of the heart.

Wouldn't it be great to have a mirror that tells you everything about who and what you are, and a reminder of how perfect you are; the way you are? And how perfectly you have lived your life no matter what you personally think about it.
Have you ever felt as though your best is not good enough, as though you are at your wits end, and cannot go on a minute longer? Welcome to the human race. It seems that most of mankind has felt this way at one time or another. It is not uncommon to want to throw in the towel when you feel unappreciated, or as though all your hard work does not matter. Just think what Christ must have felt like as he took on so much to save mankind from total condemnation in hell.
I am not politically motivated nor do I have any interest in the candidates or their policies. However, I was on occasion drawn to the debates later on in the 2008 US presidential election. I had the opportunity to hear one or two of Obama's speeches. I agree with many, that the US election was a trans-world election. Because the US influence is felt throughout the world, what happens in their country affects all of us in some way.
A new beginning always comes after an ending. We are on the threshold of a new awareness in human evolution. All the periods we have gone through have brought us to this place in time. Currently we are experiencing the ending of religion and the industrial revolution. They have taken us as far as they can.
Did you watch the show "Short Circuit?" It was about a robot created for the military to seek and destroy. Something happened to the robot; some circuits shorted out and it became aware of its existence; it became sentient. The robot which was the 5th robot is a series, gave itself a name and declared throughout the movie that "Number Five is Alive."
The innumerable recorded cases of past life experiences are proof of the concept of life after death. In all the recorded cases of rebirth, it was found that there was a variable time lag between the death of the person and his next birth on Earth. So, where does the person go after his death till his rebirth on Earth?
There's no time like the present! Do you know how to live it? What does that mean? Most of us live inside our heads. We are thinking about the past or dreaming about the future. Rarely do we take time to fully appreciate the present moment. The present is all we have. The past is done and gone. The future is being written in the present. We spend our lives looking forward down the road to the destination. We only look up for a moment to see if we have “arrived”. Being full present will change your limiting beliefs.
