Awareness!

“We see people and things

not as they are, but as

we are.”

~ Anthony de Mello

Awareness

The Perils and Opportunities of Reality

BY ANTHONY DE MELLO · IMAGE ? 1990 · 184 PAGES

“There’s nothing so delightful as being aware. Would you rather live in darkness? Would you rather act and not be aware of your words? Would you rather listen to people and not be aware of what you’re hearing, or see things and not be aware of what you’re looking at? The great Socrates said, ‘The unaware life is not worth living.’ That’s a self-evident truth. Most people don’t live aware lives. They live mechanical lives, mechanical thoughts—generally somebody else’s—mechanical emotions, mechanical actions, mechanical reactions.”

~ Anthony de Mello from Awareness
