PRESENCE in the moment! There IS nothing else!

Well my definition is that I remember that everyone is a mirror of myself and the great divine mysteries... and that I treat myself and them accordingly.

"Eternal Awareness!"

The world is quite complicated and I could write a book on it. Every morning when you wake up, whether one realizes or not in the first waking moments one becomes consicous of theirself. The fact that they are alive, still here on this planet. Must get a quick shower, breakfest and off to work etc, etc. This is conscious living. This awareness is who you are! It is eternal and indestructable!! As days and years go by, we age and one day we must lay our human and fleshly burden down. On the next day or morning as we have passed on...we awaken into another new or different consciousness. We find ourselves consicously aware that we are somewhere else other then the planet earth.

All I want to say about that is this new reality and awareness has a lot to do about our own decision to be wherever we find ourselves in that new place.

The short answer to my level of awareness :
"Consciousness is living in Spirit and unconsciousness is living from the ego.

To be at the cause of Life: to emotionally connect inner purpose and passion to outer goals and tasks in order to bring extraordinary results. It shows up in my life through positive relatonships, beauty, clarity, connection, and joy. I not only get to share my gifts with others, I am open to receive the gifts from others leading to health, happiness, and laughter. Consciousness is BEING, awake to all Posibilites and understanding the POWER to choose.

We are primarily leading lives of ignorance. We are ignorant of what we are and who we are. All our acts stem from ingorance. We don't even know what's in store during the next moment. What turn things will take. Where it will lead us. How it will change our entire lives.

We have to be much more evolved to live in the sphere of knowledge. The process of evolution, in its normal course, will take care of that in its own time and pace. Yoga can help speed up the process.

Conscious living is the first step towards this process of evolution. When we become mindul of each of our actions. And how our actions affect our progress and that of the other human beings and the planet as a whole. It is also a long and tedious process and can take a lifetime or more to achieve.

But we all have the power within us to achieve this.

I would like to tell a story about a Group of people who Gathered in Circle, made a commitment to six circle gatherings, which would last about six days each visit and found out many new and wonderful Questions. As a group the Sweetgrass Name was Born! The story of the Sweetgrass is simple each strand by itself is weak and brittle; however, together many strands become unbreakable! The first Teacher the group selected was An Eskimo Shaman named Uncle. Through the vibration of his drum and to the Voice of his songs, He tells of Tribes beliefs that have been for the most part Isolated for over 10,000 yrs. His tribe has over 65,000 years of Artifacts and Legends! The unique message it sent was so profound yet every so familiar!!! The understanding are the same all over the Universe!! The root Messages are the same. The basic understanding was we have two types of energies, Energy of Intention and and Sexual energy.

The other specialist was with sound! TRIZZZZZZZ!!! The group spent many hours playing drums, crystal bowels, Rattles, learning how to use Tuning forks and the Peruvian Whistling Vessels!

The Vessels create a vortex while in Circle! The base frequency is so profound that Even a Conservative Republican could feel the Energy!!! flowing Joke!

I had the honor of being in the Sweetgrass Circle and look forward to leaning new and wonderful QUESTIONS !!!!!

Being present in the moment is being alive in the moment. Being conscious is being aware of what is happening around you, ie. otherness. Other people, other situations, other mindsets, other emotions, other than the ones you are personally experiencing in the moment.

What energy is emanating from others and how are you effecting them. What is happening around you and how is it effecting you and how are you effecting them?

To me Conscious Living as it applies to this group is about creating a better world, with better relationships, better business practices, better quality of life, better health, better diets, better relationships, etc. etc.

[Sandra M. Bueno]

Conscious Living to me is recognizing the inherent power we have as an energy form to cause change in the matter. It is awakening through our own willingness, to see that everything around us is either supported or interrupted by our own doing. It is acknowledging that we either support or disrupt the flow and that within, we hold the ability to redirect action, direction, and vision.

In all, Conscious Living is taking a stand for what supports humanity; whether it is in the emotional, mental, spiritual or physical form. This includes seeing that our world and the planet we live in is perfect, yet those of us inhabiting it, have created the consequences we are seeing through our own choices and practices. Thus, change is possible when we recognize and graciously accept our responsibility through conscious living.

At this time, for me, Conscious Living is paying attention to my intuition!! I can't tell you how many times I've ignored that "feeling" only to be sorley dissapointed. Less regret is a priority and by paying attention, I will eliminate loads :D

Love and Light!!

Conscious Living means being aware of oneself and facing the interesting abstract products of G-d. What I mean is that our creator has given us the ability to wake up fresh and energetic enough to go through all our life each day. I feel blessed each time I wake up without something hurting me or bothering me, which would cause me to be in pain or irritable the entire day. It is a true blessing to be alive and achieve greatness in this world in order to help lots of people. I believe that we are really blessed to have a beautiful day or peaceful moment.
