Our daily life is full of time. We are surrounded by time from getting up in the morning until checking the alarm clock in the evening. But being fully in the present moment is the key to spiritual awakening, or to say the least, to live a happier and more liberated life. What’s the difference between normal clock time and psychological time? How can we balance the fact that we have to use time so often and also stay more present?
The present moment is the only thing where there is no time. It is the point between past and future. It is always there and it is the only point we can access in time. Everything that ever happened and will ever happen can only happen in the present moment. It is impossible for anything to exist outside of it.
Do we become happy by fulfilling our deepest dreams and by being the best version of us we can? Or do we just have to awaken to our true self and see that all craving is ego-land and won’t make us happy in the end?
To have balance in life certainly is one of the most important overall goals to reach. At the same time it is a real toughie. On the one hand you focus on something you want to achieve, you make progress, but on the run you lose focus in another area of life. Has this happened to you?
