Live By Now, Not By Transactions offers a way of living in the here and now consciousness, not in there and then consciousness. Reading this article makes me aware of the importance paying attention to my mind. Where is my mind right now? When I reflect on this question I come to realize that my mind is not always present in the here and now consciousness. It is wandering in the world of past and future but not in the here and now consciousness. When I become aware of my mind wandering like this I come to realize how much time and energy I am wasting doing nothing. Reading this article makes me realize the importance of living in the here and now consciousness. I come to realize how much my energy is drained by thiking about the past and the future. When I pay attention to this way of thinking I realize why my mind gets tired and feels sleepy.
When I break the mental cycle of moving in the same circles I experience creative and vibrant energy. My mind is free and peaceful. This is the gift I receive from living in the here and now awareness.
Daily practice of Mindfulness Meditation helps me see 'living by now' as a place of practice.
Namaste!
