Surrender Bodily in the Spirit and Merge Attention into Its Source   The "I" in the mind is not really within. It is merely a reference to the body, "I" is the body in the universal Life-Field or Spirit of Nature. If "I" is not lived as the body, surrendered in the Life-Current, then it is lived as bodily and psychic contraction from the field of relations. Therefore, recognize and confess the "I" or self-sense to be the body. Surrender as the body into its Source, which is the Divine Life-Spirit, the Source or Matrix of all forms, and be Happy, doing the works of love and joy. The consciousness that calls itself "I" and tends to live as the self-contraction is not in fact the "I" or the mind or the body. It only witnesses these. Attention is the primary form of that consciousness in the embodied state. Therefore, transcend attention in its Source and Identity, prior to the "I," the separate self sense, the body, all relations and conditions, and all states of knowledge and experience. Thus, surrender or Realize attention in Transcendental Consciousness or Being Itself. These are the two primary disciplines founded on Divine Ignorance or radical understanding: (1) Surrender bodily into the universal Life-Current or all-pervading Spirit, feeling in all directions from the heart, relaxing bodily, from the vital center or bodily base, toward the crown of the head, and constantly breathe or circulate the Life-Current bodily. (2) Surrender attention, via the exercise of the conscious process, into the prior Consciousness or Transcendental Being, rather than casually surrender attention to the objects and states of the body-mind. Do this in meditation and daily life, thus economizing the degree to which body and attention are directed toward phenomenal states and relations, until the eyes open in the Realization of the Identity of consciousness and the. Condition of the bodily self and all of Nature. There is only One Divine or Transcendental Being, Self, or Consciousness, and the bodily self, the mind, and all of Nature are unnecessary, conditional, and ultimately nonbinding or un-Real modifications of Its Own Radiance or Love-Bliss.   Back to What Is The Conscious Process - A Beezone Study
