How am I Aware?

When a person actually sees in the moment that he or she is conditioned, then one is aware. Total awareness is the outcome of a mind that is "Meditative" in the sense that ones awareness spans the entire psychological spectrum of ones consciousness. It is a deep realization of ones conditioned and primal existence. Such a being's existent consciousness can only be hinted at. One exist in and as the unknown and unknowable. In order for one to truly experience awareness that is not the illusion of a self indulgent aspiration, a person must see and realize directly that all that is observed is the projection of self. That all interpretation and conclusion of existence is a manufactured reality that is wholly the result of thoughts desire for continuity. Thought realizes that continuity through the illusion of self which is thoughts created image of an entity that has a past and a projected future. Continuity cannot exist in the absolute moment because there is no past or future. There is only the truth and reality of the absolute moment in which the defined self ceases to exist. If one is aware in that moment then there is realization of the true self, that which is unconditioned. The outcome is intelligence that transcends thoughts illusion of a self that knows.

Most people believe that they are being aware when in fact they are just practicing a method as a means to an end. In the truth of awareness there is nothing to be gained. It is not a religious or spiritual accomplishment. It is the simplicity of not knowing. It is a meditation that is without purpose or goal. The first is an ending of the self, a dissipation of an identified and named entity, then true awareness, then total freedom from the known. Now one sees directly the truth of the moment sans a self that is comparing and concluding. It is the consciousness of the unconditioned which cannot be named or defined. The outcome is an organism that is at peace and that loves and accepts unconditionally.

So how are you aware? There is no how to it. There is only awareness that is the outcome of total freedom. Put away your prejudicial beliefs and opinions, become vulnerable to life and live the moment as it actually is, not what you want it to be. Then you will find a new person, but it will not be an individual that is concocted by a mind that is seeking. It is life lived in the beauty and transparency of the unknown.
