We Share Our Being

Consider the possibility that we share our being, that there are not numerous selves. There is one self, if we can call it a self. This one self shines in each of our minds as the knowledge of ‘I’ or ‘I am’ or the feeling of being myself. Be knowingly the presence of awareness. Notice that the fact of being aware or awareness itself shares none of the limits or the qualities of anything that we are aware of. Anything that is limited must have a form; we, awareness are that which is aware of all forms, or names and forms, but itself has no form and therefore no limit. Just as each of our thoughts and perceptions are known by the same unlimited awareness, consider the possibility that the content, not just of each of our individual minds, but the content of all minds is known by the same awareness. Understand and feel that behind their thoughts and feelings, behind their actions and behaviors they are the same being as each of us. Allow this being to outshine the world.
