‘To be free of time is to be free of the psychological need of past
for your identity and future for fulfilment.’

Eckhart Tolle

Tolle begins now to speak about finding the ‘life’ underneath the
‘life situation’. This is one way we can recognise when we are
reacting to a situation rather than approaching it as an observer of
the world of form. He quotes from ‘A Course in Miracles’ that ‘nothing
real can be threatened’.

We have heard the statement before that the past no longer exists and
the future does not exist yet so the only ‘time’ that is real is the
present moment. To understand this allows us the opportunity to become
free from illusions. The illusions being that we consider the past and
the future to be real.

This is something that takes practice and may only be a fleeting
feeling at first but with practice it will become more and more
automatic.

In the present moment we are in touch with our true self. When we are
in touch with our true self we are able to follow the inner guidance
that is given and have faith that our true self is able to see the
bigger picture. Some situations we may find ourselves trying to
control again but if we choose to release them and not label them as
good or bad we free ourselves to experience love past that point and
enable ourselves to move closer to our true nature.

Some situations we may not recognise as being ‘not that important’ to
our true self. This is where trust comes to the forefront. We can,
over time, learn to trust ourselves and our intuition again when we
choose not to attach it to stories from the past or project fear of
possibilities for the future.

When Tolle is speaking about finding the life beneath the ‘life
situation’ this is what he is referring to. Surrender... Surrender to
your true self. Trust that you know.

When we no longer fear the past or the future we are able to choose to
observe from a position of love. We are able to be and feel the
presence of love.

Then we are able to feel the joy of being. We are no longer working on
a schedule but are moving to heal ourselves and our illusions of
fragmentation and separation. We can relax knowing that we choose to
bring love to every situation. We choose to bring life to every
situation. Then we can stand back and know that we have found the life
underneath the ‘life situation’ and know that we cannot be harmed or
hurt when we stand in love. This is when we can really feel life... as
the only ‘time’ there is ever life in the true sense is Now!

Happy Manifesting!
