Most of our lives seem to be overrun by human emotion. We have a FEELING about anything and everything, yes? It doesn’t matter what life experience is happening right in front of us, we will have some sort of emotional reaction purge to the surface for everyone else around us to see. These spontaneous episodes seem to be ruling our lives, especially when awareness is not present yet. Without awareness, we might as well be lost in a sea of one powerful surge of emotion after another, much like life-threatening waves abrasively crashing onto the shore.

Of all the topics within spiritual transformation, this one may prove to be the most difficult to explain, let alone experience. Up until now we have discussed much about viewing life with the observer, that larger awareness that is part of our higher selves. While viewing life in this way, it appears there are two subjects perceiving, you and this larger awareness, both peering out into the world around us.

Have you ever stepped outside of your thinker and watched your mind operate? Has it changed how you see yourself and the world around you? Or, is this an entirely new concept to you? If you are versed in watching your thoughts, or it’s never even occurred to you before, becoming the OBSERVER is an extraordinarily helpful tool on your path to waking up.
