Every step on the inner path, however seemingly small, Our progress on the inner path is gradual, usually. We start to realize that we are not what we thought: the voice in our heads, our story, our thoughts and feelings. We start to realize we go deeper than that. Going deeper than the voice in our heads we find awareness sitting quietly, just being aware, aware of the voice in our heads, of existing, of itself. It is such peace to rest here in awareness for a moment, to take a break from the incessant chattering head.
Everything is different than we thought: the world is wider somehow, a soft, potent expanse, silent and awake. Things seem to fall into place in a perfectly ordered completeness beyond logic or words. As if now there is some clarifying context to the single line of story we had before. Our experience of life shifts: we become happier, more loving and peaceful. Things clear up; we have less strife, fewer arguments, greater health. The context is always bigger than we thought. If we are willing to go beyond what we think we know, we are humbled by what life really is, so complete and independent of our perception. Awareness beckons and if we accept the invitation, each ‟yes” an expansion beyond some invisible limit – we walk into the greater expanse and then become it, leaving behind what we thought we were before. Every new awakening into a greater context – into a higher truth – is beyond anything we could ever before imagine. At some point we realize the path is infinite. With each step we are more humble, more grateful for the gift of life, more aware of how we are held within, and one with, this unbounded context: infinite, omnipotent and the essence of love. And we realize it is what we are. That is the gift! And has been all along.

We may at first have thought consciousness was in the mind, or even thought it was the mind itself. That it was somehow part of our domain; our personal interface with life or our go-to source of thinking and reason.
Exploring the mind however, we discover it is not consciousness that is personal, but the mind. We discover the mind is limited and finite and that we can go beyond it — to consciousness itself. Even as a new explorer, we are aware of something here vast and whole, an infinite peace, potent and complete. And we know — as if remembering — that this is also the intrinsic, intimate truth of ourselves.
