Learn the Art of Awareness in Meditation
Written by Kip Mazuy
There is nothing more enjoyable, more enriching then the practice of spiritual awareness in meditation. In this short article, I will teach you all you need to know about spiritual awareness.
Consider this: In the mind, you are always going somewhere. You are always looking around the next corner for contentment.
Whether you are looking for your next lover, the next holiday, the next mountain to climb, the next task on your list to do, or simply the next meal, the mind is always looking forward to something.
And because of this, you are never aware of the present moment. You are in a constant state of avoiding this moment.
In spiritual awareness, you are always here. You are not looking to go somewhere, to attain something or to control anything. You are simply observing your experience in the moment.
In this moment, you become aware that breathing is happening, that thoughts are happening, the heart is beating. If you are aware of any of these things happen, without trying to control them in any way, then you are present.
Simply by keeping your attention on any one of these things, you are present.
And as you grow in your ability to be present, you begin to experience something that is here beyond all of these things. And that is that you are here. Beyond your thinking, beyond the body, there is a subtle experience of existing. It is attention itself.
And attention is the essence of spiritual awareness. Attention is complete in itself. Awareness does not want anything.
In spiritual awareness you recognize that contentment simply is when you stop looking for it elsewhere. Contentment is what you are at the very core of your being.
You stop moving in a linear dimension of time and rest deeper and deeper into this moment. Into the essence of spiritual awareness which is attention itself.
It is a completely different experience of living.
In the mind, you are always wanting, always worrying, always distracting yourself from this moment. This moment according to the mind is uncomfortable.
But in spiritual awareness, your are complete. There is nothing to change, nothing to get, nothing to control, nothing to judge, describe or define. You are simply aware of what is. You are observing without involvement your experience in the moment.
And the very nature of awareness is unconditional peace, bliss and love. The deeper you rest in awareness, the deeper the bliss.
In this very moment beyond all concepts you are unconditional peace. It cannot be otherwise.

How common is self-love, what happens without it, and how does it relate to self-esteem?
Self-love is very essential in boosting our self-esteem. A person having self-love is contented with his own presence, whereas a person who does not have self-love always wanders to get love from other people or things. He is always restless. He never feels satisfied even after receiving love from people. His hunger for love never ceases, and hence he demands more and more attention from others. As a result, his relationships are ruined and he always lives in misery.rn rnSo,

Who is a True Guru? How to choose a Spiritual Guru?
Grave danger in uprooting a Guru Do not accept a known guru as guru, and if you do, then do not turn your back on him. Use a pot if you do not like him. The pot will not have any problems. Worship it because your buddhi (intellect) will not be active there and your work will get done. Now who would be so careful that he would not allow his intellect to interfere? How can one understand all this? Questioner: At the time we make someone our guru, he appears to be very good, he

What is the importance of Living Guru?
Questioner: If we surrender to the great souls that lived thousands of years ago, can that be considered surrender? Can we make any progress through such surrender or do we need to surrender to a living great man? Dadashri: You can progress even through Paroksha (indirectly- one not currently living). However if you find such a living (Pratyaksh) person, then your liberation will be instant. The indirect approach will give you the benefit of progress but there is no liberatio
