Awakening to a deep contentment in the moment itself;

Joy bubbles up,

Heart keeps expanding

Seeing that identity is found not in mind but in the heart.

Knowing the world can be seen clearly
only through heart and not in mind.


This is awakening.

You know the heart that you are, is awake to itself,

by the peace, contentment and love felt moment to moment.

In contentment you don't care what it is called

and you don't need anyone's endorsement.
