Unraveling the Mystery of Human Consciousness by opening to the World Outside of Memory can be the most serious of subjects. We can spend years studying spirituality and philosophy, meditation, prayer, manifestation, mindfulness, presence and Be Here Now, trying to "find our human completeness.”

But some of us prefer just to have a little sit.

As a confirmed lazy mugg, I believe if we approach the deeper questions of life lightheartedly, they will welcome us back in that same spirit. So my love of just sitting has led me to a remarkable insight that has almost never been discussed, to my knowledge. Perhaps it's been mentioned by one or two luminaries such as Alan Watts and J. Krishnamurti. Studies like Taoism, Zen Buddhism, Neoplatonism, Sufis, Christian Mystics and Carl Jung point in this direction, but don’t quite get there.

It is a perfect "lazy-mugg" insight, because it doesn’t require much thinking, no strict disciplines, not even any beliefs outside of how we live our daily life.

And the insight is this:

That our true self can easily, reliably and enduringly be found in the World Outside of Memory. Not just outside of talking, but fully outside of memory.

So in characteristic lazy-mugg fashion, the express path to our true self is available to every one of us without exception, and available immediately without any effort once we grasp this new approach to human awareness.

And the new approach is simply this: That we should remain just as we are, and add one little (but profound) ingredient:

The understanding that there is more to life than memory.

“Finding Our True Self and Human Completeness, simply by understanding that there is a World Outside of Memory.”

What could be lazier than that !!!
