When we are in the world of the thinking mind, we are somewhere in the remembered past or the imagined future.
We are in a world of thought, memory, concept, idea, opinion and belief. We are not here now. What we are experiencing is not the truth and reality of the present moment. In a very real sense, the past is intruding into our experience of the present moment, coloring and distorting it. All those limiting beliefs and painful experiences of the past adversely affect our experience of life. (THE DAILY GURU)
