Beyond the thinking mind

Most people spend their entire life imprisoned within the confines of their own thoughts.They never go beyond a narrow , mind made , personalised sense of self that is conditioned by the past.

In you , as in each human being , there is a dimension of consciousness far deeper than thought. It is the very essence of who you are .We may call it presence,awareness, the unconditioned consciousness.In the ancient teachings it is the Christ within or your Buddha nature.

Finding that dimension frees you and the world from the suffering you inflict on yourself and others when the mind made " little me"is all you know and runs your life.
