Grounding - Aspects Of Being 1
One way we can experience Being is as unconditional grounding and support. In fact, Any experience of true support in life ultimately is the experience of Being. What we call emotional support, moral support, confidence in self or others, and the related abilities to be effortlessly patient, committed, determined, steadfast, or perseverant are all experiences of sensing Being as the ground of our moment-to-moment experience. When our tendencies to be overly controlling and efforting in life dissolve, and we lose interest in any sense of inadequacy and deficiency, we feel effortlessly centred and trusting, and we are not so easily distracted by our thoughts, emotions or urges – or by the external world. Sensing Being supports us in letting our awareness rest in Being. This one-minute meditation is a part of a series on different aspects of Being. It can be used on its own as a quick way of turning awareness to Being – or to set the tone for a longer silent meditation.
