I AM HERE

Filed under What I learned today

What I’ve discovered in my search for self is that it can’t be found in time. What is good or bad is in the past, what I wish to experience is in the future. Neither past or future is who I am because I am here! I taste, I smell, I hear, I breathe, I see, I talk, I write, I think, I move….all here. So I must be here. Who I am..is here. There are no qualities here, no likes or dislikes (can I know all that and say it is here? All that is memory.) There is no memory here.

I am this moment..this world right now. Can I separate myself from my world and say this is me and the world is that..this computer…Am I not this computer? I experience this computer in…me. This comcputer is in me. I am not separate from this computer in experience. I see an image in my mind. I hear the radio playing from the computer in my mind…The computer is in me…So the whole world thatI experience right now…the computer, the room and all the sounds of the house are in me….I am the center of the world and the world is in me. All else is knowledge of the world which is memory…in me. What I know is in me….so all I can say is I am here and all this existence is in me….

So as I back track on the search for me…I come to space that holds all this form, thoughts, things, sensations….space….awareness…a witness of me. I was before I was born and I am after I die….space has no form….I am spirit…formless awareness…free.
