“So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: learn to disidenfity from your mind.” Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now, pg. 21 I’ve identified this is a really week area of mine. I HAVE noted that first thing in the morning, I feel like I’m arriving back at a mind [...]

August 17, 2009 – “Surrendered Action”
Posted in Spirituality, tagged computer, Eckhart Tolle, the power of now, work on August 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
On page 119 of ”Practicing the Power of Now,” Eckhart Tolle uses the phrase “surrendered action.” I’ve decided to make it the focus of my week. Daily I struggle–particularly toward the end of the work day–with a degrading level of consciousness as the hours tick by. This is partially due to mismanagement of my energy [...]

“Take responsibility for your state of consciousness, now.” – Eckhart Tollle, “The Question of Personal Responsibility,” http://www.eckharttolletv.com/# This is a simple statement with world changing implications. It encapsulates my personal situation: the deep desire to work for the evolution of humanity through the only means available to me: personal evolution. (I’m liking the two colon formula.) Why [...]

I have been most profoundly struck as of late with a particular comment Eckhart Tolle makes on Disc 5 of the Power of Now audio set. (Also, page 141 in The Power of Now. “What appears to us as space in our universe perceived through the mind and the senses is the unmanifested itself, externalized. [...]

1 – 10 Scale of Awareness: 4.25 Today, I went shopping. Ross “dress for less,” believe it or not. I’ve been telling myself to do more second-hand store shopping, but today I went for close by and cheap, as opposed to far away, hit and miss, and cheap. However, as I usually find clothes shopping [...]

Preliminaries: I’ve decided to start noting at the beginning and perhaps at the end of each post where I am at in terms of my self-perceived level of awakening. Let’s try a scale of 0 – 10, with 0 (for shits and giggles) being George W. Bush, and 10 being Eckhart Tolle. At the moment [...]

Just me at 4:45 PM PST and my laptop computer screen in an empty apartment, lounging on the couch, wondering if I have anything illuminating to reveal to myself. Old Business: I have not watched Oprah.com/anewearth episodes at work at my desk before work, as I plotted to do in my last post. Getting to [...]

I really like this blog thing. It adds an additional subtle (digital) element to my personal identity in material reality. It’s particularly useful for me with my Saturn tendencies of responsibility and following through, because it creates an outer point of accountability for an inner — and therefore easily lost — process. It’s a sunny [...]

Yesterday and today I was buoyed by this passage from The Power of Now on page 69: “In the absence of psychological time, your sense of self is derived from Being, not from your personal past. Therefore, the psychological need to become anything other than who you are already is no longer there.” It was [...]

On this day I spent some time in Second Life, and later went for a hike. In Second Life, I had my first extended interactions with others. It was quite illuminating. I felt renewed fascination with the interface, and amused at how interaction with others revolutionized my experience; deepened it in seriously exponential ways. Later, [...]
