Awareness as the Unity of Life

Some use their thinking to release their bodies. Others use body sensations to release a hold on the mind or use their feelings as a pointer to what is true. If your personality type is such that your thoughts predominate, they may tend to override body signals or minimize body signals. If you are a heart type, your feelings may override thinking.Whichever type you are, this is not a thing to be fixed. The Openess that you are, allows each to have it proportional share of focus. But it may happen in the seeker that a shift occurs that eases the attachment and focus on the predominant and allows the other modalities to have their say.

A common Advaita pointer is that life is non-dual, not two. This points back to the common garden-variety awareness illumining your life. This is the container for all experiences of any kind. Thus, you are a head, body, heart, thinking, sensing, feeling, naming, doing, analyzing, kind of thing. One thing. Not a thing at all, really, but one has to use words.  Nothing has, or ever will,  occur outside that awareness. Awareness is the basic unit of life. In the overall scheme of things, heart, body and mind are not separate. In the one seamless totality, thought appears. Sensations appear. Emotions appear. Even the body is an appearance in awareness.

In referencing the material world, we have come to say that a chair is separate from a table. The body is separate from the chair. But what you are, is aware of it all. There is no dividing line in awareness.  There is no dividing line in you.
