If you are inside a state of spiritual no-mind you will probably discover you are more aware, much more current towards the existing moment. To what is around you. Being with what you are being with. Inside a state of no-mind. Like the present second gets to be lengthier. Like your preception of present reality is slowed down.

I prefer to label this way of being as living in ‘innocence’. The reason is simply because this really is how infants and youthful toddlers see the planet. There is not much going through their thoughts. They are in a state of innocence and are merely becoming with what it is they are being with. In a being relationship with their surrounding environment.

And you can tap into this state of innocence at any time, simply by putting your consciousness, your attention on the gap in between your thoughts. It’s within this gap where the magic happens. In the state of innocence. No matter what is going on in life about you, this gap of no-mind is always there. It is just a matter of shifting your focus from reasoning instead onto no-mind. This will usually make you drop more into the current awareness around you.

The other way the thoughts takes us aside from being with what is is via labels. For instance, if you glance at a tree, the labels you give to parts in the tree will be ‘tree’, ‘leaves’, ‘bark’, ‘roots’, ‘brown’, ‘sap’, ‘branches’, ‘flowers’, ‘seeds’, ‘trunk’ and so on

However, if you close your eyes, enter the state of no-mind by putting your attention around the gap after which consciously let go of labels a rare factor starts to happen. By letting go of labels you are able to merely be with what’s there to be with.

For example, in the event you grasp a stick in your hand and glance into the stick you then would usually be using the labels of the stick such as ‘brown’, ‘hard’, ‘light’, stick’, ‘wood’, ‘flexible’ and so on. However if you let go of these labels inside a state of no thoughts then you can experience what it’s like to simply be at one with the stick.

When you drop labels you will probably notice and see a great deal more detail inside the components of the wilderness in front of you. You’ll likely pick up a lot more in the small particulars. Maybe that it seems like you’re viewing these components for the very first ever time. And that you can invest a lot of time merely being with your element within your hands.

Meditation is always the most important factor to forming a spiritual connection with the land.
