We think that the world we see is being projected onto our mind. But the truth is, our mind is projected onto the world. Everything we see and experience is a projection of our mind. It’s seen through the lens of our past, our conditioning, our trauma, and the story about our life that we tell ourselves.

Simply becoming aware of this fact helps us recognize our place within our experience, lessens our identification as the “I” of the ego, and becomes aware of the fact that we are aware of ourselves.

In meditation, we can see through the clouds of thoughts that obscure our view and we can observe life as the miracle it truly is.
