Consciousness is What We Are

Consciousness is What We Are

Author: Centre for Spiritual Living, Edmonton October 1, 2017 Duration: 46:47
Michael Singer says in his book _The Untethered Soul_ that, "There is nothing more important to true growth than realizing that we are not the voice in the mind. We're the one who hears it." It's all about consciousness. Yet we can become engulfed in fear even though there is nothing to fear. We can try to change our physical world to feel empowered, yet the real power is internal. We think that winning the lottery will make us abundant, yet it will not shift consciousness. When we feel triggered, we should ask, "What is alive in us? Why do we perceive this situation as a problem?" The place to deal with a problem is within. Enjoy Jackson Browne's song ["Alive in the World"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P775crQIwo).

Each conversation or talk in this podcast respects the multitude of ways to draw closer to Spirit, gently examining how seemingly different paths often lead to the same destination of peace and understanding. It’s an auditory expression of a philosophy that sees the divine in every tradition, inviting you to consider your own spiritual journey through a lens of inclusive wisdom.
