On the spiritual path, more than being aware of thoughts, words, actions, or behaviors of any kind, are feelings.
Feelings — more precisely sensations — are the only facet of our awareness that are undisputable. Everything else is subject to interpretation, and misinterpretation, but feelings are what we feel..and there’s no question we feel what we feel.
Our feelings might be fear, anxiety, bliss, pleasure, sorrow, or trauma — it does not matter what label we use. The point is that we own what we feel. A solid connection with our feelings allows us to precisely articulate our experiences. Additionally, more importantly, a solid connection with our feelings allows us to expand the awareness of our soul…gradually, gracefully, consistently.
In this 4:12 minute talk, I describe how I find feelings to be the cornerstone of spiritual awareness.
