We have to work on our boundaries because that is really what we are showing before we get to know someone. What do your boundaries demonstrate? Do you even realize what you are communicating with or without certain boundaries?

Observation is noticing something but awareness is sensing yourself in another, sensing if interaction with said thing will expand your awareness. Honing your sensitivity to how said thing will expand your awareness (through shared experience of love, pain, shame, fear, loss, joy, ecstasy, etc.) prior to embarking on merging with vehicles of consciousness or belief systems, comparing or combining belief systems. How much can you know about someone or something before you know them? Here’s where the intuition part of awareness out ranks observation.

We all are doing “consciousness exploration” whether we call it that or not. I think it’s powerful to claim it though and intentionally take steps to grow your awareness of the nature of life.

Our whole world is our vehicle of consciousness. Our motherboard of manifestation. We do have an interal world too but we can manipulate our outer world, and receive guidance, to grow and expand our awareness as well. There are all sorts of practices that are in-tune with this idea. Pulling weeds in the garden pulls weeds in the mind, for example. To learn how you can grow through outer manipulation, though, you need to have unfiltered access to reality, an achievement in itself.

Are you driving your own vehicle of consciousness or someone/something else driving your car? Have you ever had the dream where you are a passenger in car being driven by someone else? Often that other person is also driving recklessly or going in a direction we don’t want to go. This is your subsciousness communicating to you that your vehicle of consciousness has been hijacked by someone/something else’s belief system.
