Should one try to be in high state of awareness all the time?

The picture show continues but who is really watching?

Yeah that seems to depend on the degree that thought/feelings are left exposed and not acted upon. 

Have you noticed by exposing what is without reaction that the veil/image will stop this loop of attachment/resistance/identification? 

I have noticed being very watchful without imposition of the chooser that the daily stream of these images actually stop. These images and such seem to be due to not exposing moment to moment thoughts/emotions as they are. We tend to react to which keep them in the loop. 

I noticed that even in sleep there is no dreaming. Seems by exposing moment to moment self movement on the daily that prevents “future” inattention(identification/attachment/resistance. So even sleep is uninhabited by thought/emotion cycle(reaction).

@Jack River This is a bit hard to explain but sometimes reality/consciounseness becomes so perfectly focused, I mean like focused to infinity, that it ceases to exist. As if existance is only a diffusion pattern of true reality.

Starts as a comprehension of the whole of reality. To hold reality. Reality can then be put where it belongs. 

The the possibility of headlessness may be actulized.

Exactly. It stops dead in it's tracks. The loop is broken.

@GabeN  Trying to get to or hold onto a high state of consciousness is not fruitful. Just let the states come and go.

Accept what is here and now.

Trying to be attentive is innatention itself.  

When there is an influence of motive(desire) that is a movement of divided awareness(psychological evolution or self awareness). 

No motive(desire-influence by the past/thought) is undivided awareness that is aware of self movement(inattention). 

You right.

It's very hard to try and implement this (although I don't think there is another way besides what you said) because when I cease trying to be attentive I will slip back into my old unconscious habits.

When we see that the motive to try and be attentive has its root inattention(motive-resistance) we stop moving in that pattern. 

So to not move in that pattern of resistance there can be a awareness when we are not attentive...

then we are not creating attention out of inattention(resistance to what is)..a projection of time/self. 

The mind likes to create the opposite out of its opposite. Distortion/exclusion(time).

Awareness is like a muscle. If you train it too much, it will get tired. 

[ground]

Be mindful all the time. Question is 'mindful of what?' and that is of being in the sphere of appropriate view or vision or contemplation.

[Jack River]

Only divided awareness is trained, cultivated, and an energy exerter. 

The amount of energy needed to maintain steady consistent awareness is demanded, but also the amount of energy derived from awareness is brought about in that non reactionary awareness. 

This awareness demands full energy, and replenishes that energy as well.

As well a self feeding loop of unlimited energy.

I think generally speaking yes.  I feel like I'm always in a high state of awareness.  If I get triggered by something I might get sucked into Ego temporarily.  But the bulk of my time is keen awareness.

Hey man!

How many years of practice? And what kinds, if I may ask.

My whole life.  My own practices.  I don't follow anybody.  I have my own system actually.  I don't like the word "teaching", it's pretentious.  I have a system that I created to do personal development work and to teach personal development.
