Awakening is not a destination, but rather a state of being

When we desire to awaken, we sometimes lose sight of the "here and now." Since we view awakening as a destination to be reached, we often forget that the road that leads to it is just as important: the path of Life.

The path of Life is no different from the path of Self, since we are Life. Let us therefore not miss our moment-to-moment rendezvous with our Being through too much desire for awakening. It is very likely that we will then have to endure waiting, in order to catch up with ourselves. Waiting, in the end, is nothing other than the reverse of Presence.

In the awareness of the Now as the absolute truth of time, waiting seems obsolete. Yet, since Being awakens through the person—who, for his part, lives in a linear time dimension—one could say that waiting, too, is part of the Great Now.

It is the person's perception that dictates the time needed for Awakening. The more they open up to themselves and to what they carry, the more room there is for Being to "absolutize" the person's life. Then comes the day when the fusion of person and Being is complete. It is at this moment that time, without the support of the thought of man who has become universal, becomes eternity.

We must understand that Being gives us the gift of time. Because without time, we would explode from ourselves, due to a lack of preparation to welcome the immensity that we are. It is therefore the person we must work on. It is this person that must be freed, opened up more to leave the field free for Being to operate our full multidimensionality.

We must forge within our Being an unshakeable place, a center that can accommodate all the force of the Infinite. This is the core of our I Am.

This is why awakening takes its time. In reality, it is already here. It is we who need time to realize it.
