Attributes of One Life Awareness

When you realize that there is only One Life Awareness, and that all of life is an ever-expanding awakening to that knowing, you also come to know the attributes, or characteristics of One Life Awareness are innumerable and ultimately have no real meaning. And yet to acknowledge some of these attributes, and see them as describing how you naturally function in service to and recognition of One Life Awareness can be helpful in developing a focus on the awakening path.

Make the big leap to directly experience your life by knowing you are always who you are, and All-That-Is is always All-That-Is. No more and no less. Let go of hopes and fears, let go of wishes for things to be different or to remain the same. Refine the mental inner chatter till it has no more relevance, and abide in the stillness. Meanwhile, live your life without commentary or assessment by simply letting go of evaluating anything in terms of positive and negative.

​While there truly are no attributes of One Life Awareness in the absolute sense, there are qualities and potential traits that can be noticed in the relative sense of living life that are useful to cultivate. In this next year, allow yourself to effortlessly incorporate any and all of the following attributes into your life for the benefit of yourself and for all beings.
