Here's the kicker. Every single sensation that the human mind experiences about its universe—every sight that is seen, every touch, every sound heard, every taste and smell—as well as every thought and emotion—all occur or are constantly passing on in this flow of time. On that level, you can't stop it—everything experienced by the human mind always is moving on, passing away, and not being present.
So if you didn't identify as the pure Conscious Being you are, as what is, and identified only on the passing level of the five senses, time, and what is-not, what in the world would you be doing?
What kind of a non-being, never-present self would you be? Stop a moment and let that one in.
That simple switch in identification is profound. You are not the mind. Thinking and sensing are what you appear to use, or do—they're not what you are as pure Conscious Awareness.
The would-be thinking "mind" always has considered what it senses and experiences in the passage of time to be reality. Now you seem to do an about-face. You don't identify with a state of sensing and thinking that always is passing and never being. You identify as pure Conscious Being, or what really is, the Real. That which passes on the level of the sensing, thinking "time-mind" now is seen in the correct light—as what really is not, or what is not real.
Consciousness is All
