This is what I am here to do. I am here to help you remember. That is what friends are for.
It is what you are doing, too, in the life of another. In the life of all others. You are here to help
others remember. This is something you may have forgotten.
Once you have been made to remember, you are brought back to awareness. Once you
come back to awareness, you begin to become aware of your awareness, and you are aware
that you are aware.
Awareness is about noticing the moment. It is about stopping, looking, listening, feeling,
experiencing fully what is happening. It is a meditation. Awareness turns everything into a
meditation. Washing dishes. Making love. Cutting the grass. Saying a word out loud to
another. All becomes a meditation.
What am I doing? How am I doing this? Why am I doing this? What am I being while I am
doing this? Why am I being this while I am doing this?
What am I experiencing right now? How am I experiencing it? Why am I experiencing it the

while I am experiencing it? What does any of this have to do with what I am experiencing?
What does any of this have to do with what other people are experiencing of me?

listening, feeling, it is about knowing, and knowing that you know. It is about ending the
pretending.
Now you are really tending to business. You are tending to yourself. In the past, you were
doing what you did before you were tending. You could call that pretending.
This is remarkable. I have never heard anything like this.
Yes, you have. This is what The Buddha taught. This is what Krishna taught. This is what
Jesus taught. This is what every Master who ever lived, and who lives now, has taught.
There is nothing new here, there is nothing that is startling your soul.
When you stop pre-tending, you become totally honest. Honesty is the second tool. Honesty
is about saying, first to yourself, then to others, what it is of which you are aware.
Honesty is what you stand for. You are no longer taking things lying down, but standing for
something. You may have noticed that you cannot stand for something until you stop lying all
around. This is why it said that when you are totally honest, you are truly upstanding.
In Conversations with God, book 2, the Five Levels of Truth Telling are listed, and it is
explained how those five levels can result in a life of total visibility, or what is also called
transparency. These two words stand in interesting juxtaposition to each other. To be totally
