You have always been That
Q: Could you say that awakening is a shift from not seeing who we have always been to recognizing that?
Suzanne Segal: Okay but that recognition doesn't change who you really are, ever. You have always been That. And yes there is a way that the Vastness Itself can perceive Itself so directly, without any fogging or shading or taking anything else to be who you are. I guess you could call it a waking up, but what seems most important to convey is that this is who everyone is all the time, whether the direct awareness of it is there or not.
