Awareness is the gateway to spiritual awakening from "summary" of The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
The key to spiritual awakening lies in the simple but profound practice of becoming aware of the present moment. By shifting your focus from the incessant chatter of the mind to the stillness and spaciousness of the Now, you can begin to access a deeper dimension of consciousness that transcends the egoic sense of self. This state of heightened awareness is not something that can be achieved through effort or striving; rather, it is a natural state of being that emerges when you simply allow yourself to be fully present in the here and now. Through the practice of mindfulness, you can cultivate this quality of presence and learn to observe your thoughts and emotions without becoming entangled in them. As you deepen your awareness of the present moment, you will begin to sense a shift in your sense of identity. The ego, which thrives on identification with past and future, gradually loses its grip as you anchor yourself more firmly in the Now. This shift in consciousness is the essence of spiritual awakening – a recognition of your true nature as the awareness behind the constantly changing stream of thoughts and feelings. Through regular practice of mindfulness and presence, you can begin to touch the peace and stillness that lie at the core of your being. This inner spaciousness is the source of all true happiness and fulfillment, and it is always available to you in the present moment. By learning to abide in this state of awareness, you can free yourself from the grip of the ego and awaken to the deeper reality that lies beyond the surface of everyday experience.- Spiritual awakening is not a goal to be achieved, but a realization to be lived. It is a shift in perspective that opens the door to a life of greater joy, peace, and love. By deepening your awareness of the present moment, you can begin to align yourself with the flow of life and experience the profound transformation that comes from waking up to the truth of who you are.
