Sunday Greetings on Mother’s Day…
My mother had a strong sense of herself. And in today’s blog I find myself remembering that about her. As is true for most of us, my mother’s sense of herself, her “I”ness, moved around quite a bit, as she assumed the roles of both parents when my father died prematurely. I remember mostly the strength at her center.
Going deeper into ‘A Better Idea of God’ with you, the following essay addresses the sense we all share of “I” and its root in absolute consciousness.
Enjoy, Jeff
The “I” that is a Constant
The sense of “I” is a constant. Whatever we believe, feel, intend, do, we feel that the “I” that is thinking, feeling, intending, doing, is the real us, the real “I”. What is more, it is at least conceivable that all sentient beings, on every level of evolution, whatever they are doing, feel themselves to be the very same “I”.
On the human level, we experience a plethora of “I”s that prevent us from realizing that when we simply rest in the “I” without thought, without content of any sort, we are resting in our true identity as pure consciousness – and we are God.
If the “I” is not simply our bodies, and, of course, it is not, is it really God? If not, what is it – and what is God?

About Dr. Jeffrey Eisen, Ph.D.
The creation of PsychoNoetics is the life's work of Dr. Jeffrey S. Eisen, an academically trained psychologist and psychotherapist. Dr. Eisen's discoveries brought him to a breakthrough expansion of Freud's id, ego and super-ego structural model of the psyche called the Enoe, and a revolutionary vision of the Self-Illuminated Human. Dr. Eisen is a gifted speaker, facilitator and author of hundreds of unpublished essays, four books, and a forthcoming one titled The De-Programmed Human. Playing 20 Questions With God, An Introduction to the Clearing Path of PsychoNoetics is both an engaging overview of the development of PsychoNoetics, and a comprehensive guide to applying it to your life. Oneness Perceived, A Window Into Enlightenment is a monumental body of work that attempts a unified field theory from the viewpoint of nonduality with academic precision and rigor, and stands to become a key reference within the alternative scientific community. He has appeared in an EnlightenNext webinar with Ken Wilber, Deepak Chopra, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Brian Robertson, and Andrew Cohen, recorded online interviews with EnlightenNext Magazine, and collaborated with the first director of the Institute of Noetic Science (IONS) who inspired the name PsychoNoetics.
