Be Absorbed Now

In Perfect Awareness

"Be absorbed in God and light. Settle for nothing else. . . Be absorbed in this moment, and in this moment see eternity. Stop procrastinating. . .Be absorbed in eternal perfect awareness."

-Rama

Living in the moment is part of our practice that we call mindfulness. We take the awareness of meditation and pull it into all moments.

Perhaps it is human to miss the point. Perhaps it is human to put off today's meditation, and tomorrow's. Perhaps it is time to recognize that even in your humanity, is your divinity.

Now is the time to do it! Take away all of the excuses now. Whatever you do in the next moment, do it with God. Clean, cook, drive, walk, work, play. The activity does not matter. Your awareness is the key that drives the moment.

Move your awareness. Move to that point of awareness where you are one with your teacher, one with the infinite. BE absorbed in the clear light.

If you are not sure what "be absorbed" means try this. Remember one of the highest, brightest, lightest moments of your life. It may have been in meditation, it may have been in action, it may have been with your teacher, it may have been in nature. Remember that moment. Focus on that moment. Live that moment and this one simultaneously.

The way you live each moment matters. Remind yourself as you step through the moments of your life to be absorbed.
