I suppose that ultimately witnessing consciousness is none other than the Self. Yet at the stage where we are at it is rather a practice we initiate. It is the awareness of my responses or non responses. It is seeing two people with very different views still finding common ground. It is watching myself reach out and saying "that is good." It is a recognition of what has unfolded. It is a recognition that patience has it's ultimate reward in understanding. It is a recognition that i do not have to have a profound response. It is watching this human being going thru life seeing others misunderstand and looking at our own reactions and non responses to others. It is accepting others for what they are and not trying to make them into our image. What is it really all about any how? It is realizing that it is all entertainment provided by God and we are just witnesses of it all-what is given is also taken away as new picture shows surround the horizon.

Isn't it expressing love in the smallest offereing we can give....It is enough.... slow by slow .You could say i am a witness to what just flowed out of me. How did i say it? Did i say it?

Once Yogananda went to give a service at the Hollywood Temple. He had a plan as to what the service would be. Divine Mother told him to scrap his plans and to watch what beautiful things she would issue out of his mouth. What could be more witnessing then that? That's why we have models~to witness the possibilities. Occasionall we see them bubbling up in our own consciousness.
