It is said that if we
are living in the moment, time seems to slow down.
Most of us are
continually looking ahead or reminiscing about the past.
For a moment walk
along with me. Still your mind as much
as possible and if you catch yourself in thought, do not be dismayed. Acknowledge that thought and allow it to
continue on its way. Allow yourself to
experience this moment completely and to experience each thought that moves its
way through your mind, especially the ones that keep repeating themselves.
Did you experience
thoughts of “this is stupid”, “you are wasting your time”, or “let’s stop this
silliness and do something else”?
That voice you are
hearing is your ego. See it for what is
it, and let those words of interferences drift off.
Set a timer for ten
minutes and simply clear you mind. Enjoy
the moment to its fullest. You may be aware
of time and this experience may seem as though time is moving very slowly as
you focus on the moment.
If your ten minutes is
up, lets continue……..
For those of us that
have experienced an accident, for example, we may recall how time seemed to
slow down during the experience. The
incident itself seemed to move in slow motion.
How many thoughts went through our minds during the event?
It is quite profound
how the mind races in and out of potential outcomes as well as potential ways
that you can maneuver things to find a resolution to what is taking place. There certainly does not appear to be a
shortage of time and it actually feels as though we have much time to
react. We consciously utilize the
seconds to search for a way through the event.
This is the mind focusing
in that particular moment, and we are quite capable of doing this anytime,
although practice and patience are requirements under normal circumstance. Time is a man-made illusion and we cannot
actually slow down the time between moments.
It moves in the usual manner, but we are so tuned into it completely so that
we do not waste even a millisecond.
Think of when we are
busy. Does time not feel as though it is flying by?
We can learn to focus in
the moment through practice. Our mind
works in a similar fashion as our muscles do and it takes continued exercise (focus)
to activate the mind’s focus (as does a muscle need training to work to its
full capabilities). We can actually strengthening
the mind’s reception.
When the mind wonders,
we can gently remind it of the present moment and it will refocus once again.
In reality, we only
have the moment, and we are living it constantly. The past is gone and the future has yet to be
experienced. A minute of wasted time
will never be repeated. These moments
are far too precious to squander. Enjoy
every millisecond of this magnificence of life.
