I am not my thoughts.

I am not my thoughts by artist Michael Heseltine.

I am not my thoughts.
by Edinburgh artist Mike Heseltine.

My thoughts take me to an imagined future or a remembered past. My culture, personality, experiences and perspective colour these thoughts.

Only when I let these thoughts subside, do I see the world as it really is. I see it with a beginners mind, uncluttered with knowledge. I see it in the present moment.

I am now no longer my thoughts, but an awareness behind my thoughts.

My thoughts create a sense of a separate self, essential to help me navigate the world. These thoughts are from my limited senses and filtered to what I need to know in order to survive. They do not perceive reality but are the product of a finite mind. Behind my thoughts is pure awareness. There is no subject and object, it is only aware of itself. It is the infinite 'I am'.
