CONSCIOUSNESS THE CORE OF HUMAN EXISTENCE

Consciousness is the core of human existence. Buddha taught his monks to be mindful of small things as the methodology to attain to crystallization of consciousness. When you are mindful of small things you grow in consciousness moment to moment with each situation. As you grow in consciousness the moments of unconsciousness begin to get less and less. And then one day the season of springs comes and consciousness flowers. 

In the beginning the thoughts remain floating on the inner sky. When Consciousness is without thinking it is awareness. 

We are trained for doing. Doing brings and strengthens ego.  Ego is the shadow of action. And being strengthens consciousness. Then there is only one thing that is not doing and that is awareness, watchfulness. The only thing that is not part of the world of action is pure awareness. No shadow is created by pure awareness. It is so pure that light can pass through it. It is transparent and no shadow is created.
     
Consciousness without thinking is awareness. Being alert and with no thought is benediction. Try it! Whenever you see thinking gathering in you, disperse it immediately and mindfully! Pull yourself out of it! Look at the trees without screens of thinking between you and the trees. Listen to the chirping of the birds with no chirping of the mind inside. Look at the sun rising and feel that inside you also a sun of consciousness is rising.
