What is preventing your enlightenment? – 1
- Your attention confined by your brain
One of the main habit that is preventing your enlightenment is that, you are A WAY TOO MUCH in your head listening to your thoughts, constantly thinking, planning, evaluating, analyzing, judging, and recalling the past events and replaying the same memory over and over.
YOU, the I AM, your true self, the higher center, is always present but your attention (which originates from YOU, the I AM) is always directed toward your brain, and you, the I AM is not aware of itself.
In a way your brain is trapping your attention so that you will live within the confinement of your brain and will not escape from the 3rd dimensional dualistic experience. This is in a way by the original design, so that you can immerse yourself in the wondrous 3rd dimensional dualistic experience.
But you know, nothing bad really happens if you stop using your brain so much. Nothing terrible happens if you do not keep recalling your memory. Your life does not fall apart even if you do not think about and plan your tomorrow.
Rather, your life will become much easier to live, anchored in the present, and will be filled with much more beauty every moment.
Be aware of beautiful things around you – such as flowers, trees, sunlight falling on grasses, your pets, friends, and just feel love existing here. There are full of beauty and wonder everywhere. I AM will enjoy directing its attention to these things rather than confined in your thought process.
So just drop that brain a bit. Be present. Take a deep breathe and just enjoy this moment, have a cup of beauty and love. And free your attention from the confinement of your brain.
This is how an enlightened being is.
