I've recently clarified something in my mind - one of those things that is perfectly and completely obvious once recognized, but which can hide just beneath the surface of understanding for a long time.
Sensing is always in the present.
I am a complex sensing being. Sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch - especially touch - not just touch in my hands, but touch from every square inch of skin - the things that I sense, are always what is, right now.
Signals are coming into all of the sense organs all the time. The mind is very good at ignoring almost all of it. Bringing awareness back to the senses - opening up to even just a little more of what I am continuously experiencing - is perhaps the quickest path back to the present moment from wherever in the past or the future my mind has strayed.
