I remember a scene out of a Steven Seagal movie in which his opponent said with amazement, “I feel fear,” as if it was the most curious thing in the world. That’s really all it takes in the spiritual quest, the ability to spot when someone or something pulls us in, and staying with that movement of energy as if it was the most important research project in the world.
Awareness is not being on autopilot. It’s energy in motion. It’s alive. It’s effortless. Yet, when something or someone pulls us in—or repels us—that’s when the “self” is activated and the opportunity arises to watch the “wave of me” gain momentum and fade into nothingness where it came from. Have “you” ridden the wave today? Tell us about the experience. How did “you” jump off?
