For spiritual change, we need to see and understand ourselves. What sees is consciousness, it is what perceives, and is essentially what we are. To understand ourselves we need to look within and study how we think and feel, and doing that is called self-observation.

About This Quote

When we believe that our consciousness is separate from the rest of the world, we are only half right. The other half is that we can observe and understand how our consciousness acts and reacts to the rest of the world. This is called self-observation or self-awareness. As you become more aware of what your consciousness is and what it is doing, and how it is acting and reacting to its surroundings, you will learn to control your mental processes and change your thinking and behavior accordingly.
