Finding Stillness In Nature | The Art Of Seeing Things As They Are + Eric Ajna

<p class="p1">I’ve always had an affinity to quiet spaces in nature. Of course many people do, and for their own reasons. Though, have you ever felt the presence of a quiet space without the many distractions that tend to keep our attention bound to certain stories we have circulating in the mind at all times? </p> <p class="p1">Many people love being in nature for the simple fact that it provides us with a certain type of perspective. Typically the perspective is that of escaping the clutches of a chaotic world which provokes feelings of anxiety in us. We hear that often right, “I love nature because it allows me to escape the static and noise of my job, my life, or my career”. Though we seldom contemplate whether escaping is the most constructive thing we can do in nature.</p> <p class="p1">The truth is, we can escape, though only for short periods of time until we have to return to the chaos and slowly assimilate into the person we were before. And although there seems to great peace in temporarily escaping the burdens in life, we are seldom concerned with the temporary respite as long as we have those few moments to pretend that everything is ok.</p> <p class="p1">Though, what If there was another way for us to experience nature that wasn't wrapped up in stories we have about what it is, how it should feel and what it means for us to be there? What if there was another way for us to experience the vastness of this space we call life? This episode is about the art of truly experiencing life "as it is", and not as "we are".</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">In this episode I discuss,</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <ul class="ul1"><li class="li1">Finding Peace And Solitude In An Electric Motorcycle</li> <li class="li1">The Various Ways In Which Ego Experiences Nature</li> <li class="li1">Nature : The Ultimate Training Ground For Awareness</li> <li class="li1">How Ego Is Influenced By Its Environment</li> <li class="li1">Our Partial Commitment To Meditation</li> <li class="li1">Seeing vs. One Who Sees</li> <li class
