Spontaneous Mindfulness - 1st occurrence (1995?)This evening after working out and hitting the volleyball at the racquetball court I went to the pool to relax. It was dark. I saw with (beginner's mind). Truly looked at everything as if it were new. I saw things that I haven't seen since I was very young. We overlook so much when we are caught up in the web of the world... I saw the light reflecting in the pool's bubbles. I saw what looked like the water on fire where the underwater light was across the pool. The fire seemed to leap up above the water and sink back down. It was because of the waves in the water--or was it? I saw the beauty of the sky, the apt. complex and the many reflections of the lights in the water and on the waves. I saw the distribution of bubbles tending towards randomness and away from their source. Words and concepts cannot describe this "BEING IN THE MOMENT"--for sure. I was there. I was just part of this scene, I was "one" with everything that I was experiencing! I wasn’t separate from the surroundings! I was not aware of my physical body or the sensations usually inherent with consciousness. There was just mind to experience, not the physicalness of my own body! It's the most incredible feeling! I had no thoughts outside of what was there. I experienced and did not try to control what was there. I was a part, not seeking mastery of my surroundings. I put labels on nothing--I just experienced. Wow what it would be like to be in the moment 24 hours a day...
