We need to be aware, we need to be conscious. Not just of ourselves but also of the divine presence in our lives.
Many of us are not aware of the concept of consciousness or even conscious of the existence of consciousness. In our day-to-day lives we attend to so many chores, big and small. But most of these are done mechanically and unconsciously. Some feel that it is a waste of time to give undue importance to small things which we do by force of habit. Take the basic activity of eating food. Many a times in the morning, we find ourselves running short of time and we hurriedly gulp our tea or snatch a bite of the sandwich and get going. But do we realize that this very food sustains and maintains our life and gives us the energy, the petrol, to keep the vehicle of our life going? Or take the activity of indifferently watching the fleeting scenic beauty of nature while travelling in a vehicle. We just do it in a lackadaisical manner without comprehending the miraculous artistry of the Lord. Alas!!
Nonetheless, the same tasks indicated above, if done consciously can make a big difference to our lives and enhance the quality of our lives. This is because the divine is allpervasive and exists in all things mundane and natural. And by doing our worldly tasks consciously, we merge ourselves with the higher consciousness which is omnipresent in all the divine creations. Once we consciously adore the cosmic creation of the Creator, we submerge ourselves automatically in His consciousness.
