Where do you live? Are you in your body?
As one of my teachers, Judith Blackstone says,
"Most people don't live in their body. It's something we need to learn to recover in ourselves. Most of us, in fact, live in front of ourselves, because we're so used to coming out of ourselves to meet the world; or we live above ourselves, trying to rise above any sort of human difficulties that we may have.”

Learning to live IN and FROM our bodies - rather than simply being AWARE OF our bodies, can be greatly helped by discovering the fundamental nature of consciousness itself - and who or what we are in relationship to fundamental consciousness.
It may be a surprising discovery!
“As the body of fundamental consciousness, we experience ourselves as separate and whole and at the same time unified with our surroundings.”
- Judith Blackstone, p. 40, The Fullness of the Ground
Spiritual Awakening is the process of recognizing our essential goodness, wisdom, and compassion.
