Before you is the book of Red Hawk - a poet, philosopher, follower of the teachings of George Gurdjieff and Peter Ouspensky. The author examines one of the central tools of this esoteric direction - self-observation.
If we lack awareness - we act unconsciously, out of habit, mechanically. We only think that we are conscious and awake because our eyes are open. But habit does not require consciousness, so we move on autopilot, without will and intention, deep down we are asleep. And because of our automatism, we inevitably cause harm - to ourselves, our loved ones, and the world as a whole.
Only by returning our attention to the present moment, observing ourselves - patiently and non-judgmentally - can we change something. Once we notice that we endlessly repeat the same pattern of action, we will choose a different way of reacting. Gradually, we will stop being victims of our habits. And we will begin to naturally and organically find inner strength and balance in our feelings, thoughts, and actions.
Self-observation is of paramount importance for the process of awakening the soul from its unconscious dreams.
