What is the relationship between awareness and thinking? Awareness is the space in which thoughts exist when that space has become conscious of itself.
Eckhart TolleThroughout history humans have inflicted countless violent, cruel, and hurtful acts on each other, and continue to do so. Are they all to be condemned; are they all guilty? Or are those acts simply expressions of unconsciousness, an evolutionary stage that we are now growing out of? Jesusโ words, โForgive them for they do not know what they do,โ also apply to yourself.
Eckhart TollePresent-moment awareness creates a gap not only in the stream of mind but also in the past-future continuum. Nothing truly new and creative can come into this world except through that gap, that clear space of infinite possibility.
