#mindfulness

When caught in base desire and survival, our world becomes binary. We exist with only 2 choices: life or death. Everything appears to be separate; there is Us and Them. We feel alone, in a vacuum, trapped in fear. Our choice appears to be dominate or be dominated, control or be controlled.

As humans, we have the ability to transcend the binary survival system. Once we rise, we recognize our entire existence is Relative. We are not separate from anything or anyone. Every time we shift, everyone and everything else shifts in relation to us. If we can see this, we realize the nature of the world is not predatory. The real nature of existence is symbiosis.

#Meditation and #mindfulness, the study of #Awareness, leads us out of our clinging to survival. These practices free us from the eternal struggle to survive as a separate being, which we cannot do simply because we are not and have never been separate from all of existence and each other.
