'Welcome to the Present'
by Barry Delaney
"For
a few individuals this is a book whose time has come.
For many people the book will be ahead of
its time
or a waste of time.
Maybe it is time
for you to discover or recognise the beautiful timeless and priceless
qualities of the
Present before it gets any later.
For the - Present is the best gift there
is, here.
Why
not give yourself some time to read this book and find out who
you really are?
Not
who you think you are !
'Welcome
to the Present'...
Hello,
everyone is invited to the Present yet so few seem to be
turning up. There are all the tricky excuses: too busy, cant
find it, and even the - I was there all the time
denial. So I have written this guide with some instructions on
how to get there (here!) in case you have forgotten. Of course,
to many people such a book seems, initially, a waste of time.
For others it may be ahead of its time. To the individual, it
could be a book whose time has come.
"There is no time like
the present." or "There is no time in the
present!"
Which one is true? If you are
not certain then perhaps you need to look at who is not certain.
Who are you? Not, who you think you are. For surely you cant
be the thinker with all its imagined - worry, fear and doubt?
No, this is what causes all the suffering over the - getting,
losing or keeping whatever you think you currently want or do
not want. Please pause to observe this mental thinker as it churns
away in your head with its constant controlling voice. Watch it
advise you! Stop to notice how it stresses your body!
If, or when it does. Of course there are problems in the world.
But why be one of them? Or more subtly, do you need problems to
solve, in order to feel worthwhile and needed?
I write to adult consciousness,
directly. By this, I mean the silent being who is reading this.
This intelligence can witness the tyranny of the voice in your
head. Also it sees your frustration whilst you suffer from all
the ups and downs of those ever-shifting emotions. These forces
dictate all the likes, dislikes, cravings, aversions and the emotional
un-merry-go-round of pleasure, pain or boredom. Who can pretend
they dont fabricate this corrosive behaviour?
Some of us have had enough of
this dis-ease and long for inner peace and freedom, whilst the
rest (who incidentally get no rest) do not seem to.
The point is that well being
is only enjoyed in the present yet since the beginning of time
people have lost themselves in the idea of - past and future.
It takes time to think and all thoughts emanate from the past.
Please notice your breath.
I have written this so the reader
has a practical guide to remember or recognise who they really
are. Undoubtedly you know your true identity (by letting go of
the fake one) especially in those moments of stillness, wonder,
beauty and ease.
This is simply our natural state - unconditional, priceless and
timeless.
What you probably have not
been told is that this natural state of freedom happens to be
what ordinary life is about. Therefore inner peace is still
available, provided
we do not allow the limited thinker, in your head, to spoil it.
Be quiet, be, be responsible for now, then act - this is what
the work is all about.
Anyway, I hope you continue to discover new facets that help reflect
and celebrate this indescribable centre within.
Lets call it the source for now.
The Present
is the greatest gift,
I do my best to share where it always is.
Welcome
