Realising Spirit

Our problem is not, not connecting to spirit.
Our problem is spirit attaching itself to mental activity.

Some call our essential nature ‘spirit’, higher self, pure consciousness or God. This not only implies that there is something to attain, but we have created a duality; there is a suggestion that we are not there yet.

This ‘spirit’ is what we already are: it is seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching via the senses, right now.

But this spirit is so attached to seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching – and the thoughts about seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching – that it has lost sight of its original, essential nature.

It’s quite simple.
We have merely confounded ourselves.
