True Awakening Is Recognising Our Being

The essence of our existence lies in the experience of simple being, which underlies all our thoughts, actions and perceptions. Often overlooked amidst our fascination with activities, the presence of being is neglected. Just as we take no notice of the space in a room due to our focus on its contents, we overlook our own being in the midst of experiences. This results in a disconnection from the innate tranquillity and joy of our essence, prompting a fruitless external search for these qualities. True awakening is recognising our essential being – an ever-present, serene state. In spiritual practice, reaching a state of resting in being is the goal. This being pervades all actions, including thinking. Remaining aware of this constant being amidst life’s actions is akin to a continuous prayer, aligning with the Orthodox tradition’s concept of unceasing prayer.
