Our Reality Beyond Words
It doesn’t matter what we think or which religion we believe in, our only reality is awareness / consciousness.
Once we are aware of this awareness, we then question, “What is it that is aware of this awareness?”
Through the simple practice of meditation, which is sitting and focusing on the breath, and interrupting circling thoughts and beliefs, we become aware that there is only awareness present.
That awareness is what we are;
as nothing else is present,
it is pure awareness / pure consciousness.
We don’t have consciousness – we are consciousness.
We are beyond names, thoughts, beliefs, religion/ … these concepts form the culture to which we’re bound – and therefore we bind ourselves. Our deepest reality is that we are pure awareness / pure consciousness. When this is realised, we recognise that all the names, words, thoughts, beliefs to which we’re attached obscure this pure view.
If we’re hung-up on words, we become emotional and (sorry to say) demonic. Just look at the world! The only way we find inner peace is through realising what we are.
Words can describe the experience,
but they can never actually be the experience.
Happiness is the release from conditioning.
Thank you for sharing this profound reflection on the limits of words and concepts in describing reality. I appreciated the reminder that our descriptions and ideas can point toward experience, but they can never fully capture the reality of what is being experienced.
This resonates deeply with Buddhist teachings on direct experience, awareness, and the limitations of conceptual thinking. Sometimes letting go of the need to define and explain everything allows us to encounter the present more openly. A beautiful reminder to look beyond words and discover a deeper understanding through awareness and direct experience.
