THE POWER OF

NOW

Page 2: Understanding

The Problem

Our Relationships Are SourOur Life is Meaningless

Page 3: Understanding

We suffer because our life is NOTHING BUT

one of the two movies

Page 4: Understanding

That is…OUR LIFE IS…

Or living in the imaginary future!

Worrying about our past…

Page 5: Understanding

Though we think we are ALIVE, we are not living at all !

Page 6: Understanding

THIS IS CALLEDUNCONSCIOUS LIFE!

So

OUR LIVES ARE DARK

WE SUFFER ENDLESSLY

OUR RELATIONSHIPS ARE BROKEN

How?

Page 7: Understanding

THE DIAGNOSIS

.

You are not LIVING!

You are only REACTINGTo your life-situation

Page 8: Understanding

What is “Life-Situation”?

To keep on reacting to the two

“movies”: Dream movie about the future

Sad movie of the past

and call this “life”:

BUT that is NOT life!!!

Page 9: Understanding

THE SOLUTION?

STOP THIS AT ONCE!!!

Page 10: Understanding

WHAT SHOULD WE DO THEN?

Page 11: Understanding

LIVE IN THE PRESENT MOMENT!

TWO IDEAL PRACTICES : TO OBSERVE OUR MIND CONSTANTLY–

OUR EMOTIONS, THOUGHTS, IDEAS….

TO LIVE IN THE ‘NOW’

Page 12: Understanding

Further…

• We always project a false personality.

• We should STOP giving energy to this false

“I” – the “pain-body” – by living in the

present constantly.

• “Pain-body” is the body which our mind has

created through negative thinking.

Page 13: Understanding

WHAT HAPPENS THEN?

• We disconnect time from the mind and live in Real time.

• Our “Mind” stops tormenting us.

We disconnect consciousness from the

“mind” which is NOTHING BUT a garbage of thoughts.

enjoyed inflicting pain.
