Living as a Witness

“Your personal mind-body may be in pain, or humiliation, or fear, but as long as you abide as the witness to these affairs, as if from on high, they no longer threaten you. Thus you are no longer moved to manipulate, wrestle, or subdue them.”
​– Ken Wilber, No Boundary
Affirmative prayer: Today, I live in a witness state, observing my discomfort and concerns as a bystander. I am evenhanded about them, realizing that I do not have to make something happen along the journey; rather I make God welcome, and allow an inner strength and love essence to heal, transform, and guide me. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
