If I Am Awareness, Why Do I Have To Keep Doing Human Things?

[Mariem]

after reading about enlightenment, I was amazed by the concept of being in the present moment, things are pretty hard for my ego, he is trying everything to close this door.

one of the questions that he is asking right now is: " if you are Awareness and you're already full and complete why do you have to wake up in the morning , set goals and achieve them ?! those are human things you should be in ashram meditating right now !!"

the problem is : i cant wake up in the morning because before going to bed i have no more the motivation to wake up tomorrow to do something  new.

help me to win this little battle against my ego!

thank you!

You're spirit manifesting as a human being.  Being Awake and/or enlightened doesn't mean you stop doing human things.  It means you're Realized.  Dig it?

@Ramu , I see what you mean.

before i read about this subject, what motivated me was my goals: the fact that one day i'll realize them and so on, but it is not working any more because i know that the future is just a thought and we rather be here now than in our fancy dreams .

in other words, why do i want to achieve my goals? that is what i mean by human things

[Khin]

Set your goal for others. Buddha and Jesus and all other enlightened people did so many things to help human kind. Selfish goal will be meaningless in enlightenment work.
