It’s our natural set point. The home to which the momentum of life naturally bounces us back.
But more than “within us”, home base is us. It’s everything. It’s the only thing there is.
There’s often some confusion about this. Sometimes it looks like home base is a feeling. Or home base looks like a state–a state of clarity, peace, or love.
But the home base I’m talking about isn’t a feeling at all. It’s not psychological and it doesn’t have qualities that come and go.
The home base I’m referring to is the space within which all life rises and falls. It’s that space where you may feel psychological experience, but you aren’t psychological experience.
Who we are is the space, the container, the backdrop, the consciousness.
What we feel is the psychological experience of peace or terror or craving or elation.
Can you see the huge difference?
