Self Awareness - looking inwards

Self Awareness - looking inwards

Since the day you are born you try to gain knowledge by trying to understand the life outside of your self.  Throughout your life you try to acquire knowledge and wanting to gain knowledge by gathering information and store it in your brain which you might or might not use in your lifetime.  We hardly use 1% of what we had gathered and stored in our brain throughout our lifetime.  We have knowledge but not experienced it and we lack experience.  Being knowledgeable feeds your ego to feel good.  

You know everything else other than yourself.  You hardly know about your true self. Self awareness is the capacity to look inward and understand our own feelings, emotions, stressors and personality. 

To attain knowledge, add things everyday. To attain wisdom, remove things every day.

Life is a subjective experience.  We are subjects of life. Life is subjective. It revolves around you and me and nothing else.  If you understand yourselves, you understood life.  Life is simple and needs a simplest approach to understand it.  The whole which is outside is also inside you.  If you know the inside, you will know both the inside-outside of life.  The inside is no different from outside.  Everything is the same in different proportions. The essence is the same, only quantity differs.  Clarity in vision, thoughts, and perception will make your life easier. Life is simple, we make it complicated by not understanding its nature and not aligning with nature.

If you want to be life positive, you should align with nature and flow with it. Once your body and mind aligns with the rhythm of nature, your journey of life will be effortless.  It is just a cake walk.  It is as if sliding on a butter.  You do nothing, it takes care and it takes care of everything.  It brought you in the first place, it takes care, and finally it takes you back into its fold.

You and me have to do nothing, but just, allow it to happen and enjoy life.

If you think journey of life is effort based, then you have a long way to go to understand what is life.  Life is a play, you are a character, so you play your part/slot that is it.  When every creation of nature is playing its role perfectly well then why not you.  Only man has not aligned with nature.  He has deviated to such an extent that he has lost his way in the journey of life.  He is at loss. He is in a jam.  He is in a maze without a way out.  He has encountered a wall, a obstruction.  He is not finding a way out.  To be out of the jam, he needs a door to exit from the current situation, which he is not able to find because of his own doings.

Conscious living is the way out of your traffic jams in life.  Living consciously will make you come out of any situation in life with ease, effortlessly.  

Spirituality is a path for self awareness.  It will lead you into the path to know your true self.  It is an internal and intrinsic journey to understand the true essence of our being.  Once you know who you truly are and what you are and accept yourself fully, then rest of the life's journey will be an easy affair. Self awareness leads to know our true self and respect life.  It starts with you and your inner self and it will be easy to understand every thing else in life later on.  Once you accept your true self, you start accepting everything in life in a let go fashion without any form of expectation.

Accept Spirituality

Become aware of your self

Accept Self and Celebrate Life
