"Awareness is the power that is concealed
within the present moment."
Eckhart Tolle
THE POWER OF NOW
Eckhart Tolle speaks of the pain body demanding to be fed, fueling drama and discord. He suggests we focus only on the moment presenting itself to eventually reign in our ego. When we are triggered by unresolved issues, the temptation to invest in negativity or theatrics can be overwhelming. It is an effort to defend our ego and to reflect ourselves as the winner or the person who was right.
With our healthy roots planted providing the sense of being grounded and our shadow selves are
loved aligning our energies, the smallest memory can snag us from the present moment of tranquility. We experience the sting of an old wound which propels us into thick mud and frightening darkness. We are off and running in old patterns or behaviors.
Lightening will strike and in the flash of light, we catch a glimpse of how far we have fallen. The vibration of the thunder of the reoccurring storm redirects us back towards a healing moment. We question how we lost our emotions so violently and so quickly, until the answer surfaces. The teaching is found in the lesson.
