— Mindfulness is being in a state of total awareness of the contents of our minds, which makes us more conscious of what we’re thinking and feeling. And, by being in this state of complete awareness, we can remain observant of our thoughts and feelings with acceptance and non-judgment because we have a heightened awareness of what is occurring in our minds. This is when we are in a pure state of mind, and it is in this state when you can guide yourself wisely, pointing yourself in the right direction instead of one that can be hurtful or harmful to you. This state of complete awareness that Mindfulness puts you in won’t let you escape or choose something bad or unwise because you will be conscious of the choices you are making, and you will want to make the best ones. But, if you don’t, that means you weren’t letting Mindfulness do what it does so well—keep you present with total awareness.
What Mindfulness does is it helps us maintain equanimity in the face of change and accept it maturely with- out reacting. This is the type of “mature consciousness” we want to be in so we can be aware of when we slip into duality.
