Aligning with what's true

Hey folks! I want to share a recent insight.

I was listening to the latest episode of The Consciousness Podcast when it struck me what alignment with what's true really entails.

Simply being - not being a self.
Living knowing, that the past and the future don't exist.
Calling a belief a belief when it comes up.
Saying "I don't know" when I don't know.

Living from these discoveries is such a shift!

I find that in my experience, 3 and 4 are relatively easy to act from, but 1 and 2 take practice. But I'm making progress!

Regarding 1, I didn't get upset today when my husband blamed me for something. There was no suppression - simply no upset. It was so easy to move on. I joked he might as well take revenge on me someday, and we laughed together. That story didn't get to stay with me as a 'psychological episode', unlike before, when I believed I was a person, and my feelings mattered! 😅

Regarding 2, I noticed I tend to feel quite tense if an important meeting is planned in the future. So now, when there's a meeting, I notice how I create 'tense' by imagining the context of future and reacting to my thoughts in a way that produces tension. So nice to see all of this is happening in the now. Just need a bit more experience with this, and then I'll get settled in it.

Thanks to everyone who read this. Are there any truths you are learning to align with? Hope to see everyone someday soon! (future ah!.. 😋 Unescapable!)
