t is useless to chase a Awakening or Enlightenment, the more you chase it the farther away from you it becomes.
I have to agree with this!
To me one experiences it not chase it. Chit, to remove darkness you do not use a bucket (explanations) instead you find that source of light and let it shine. HOw the heck can one feel that light, dam sure not by reading others experience of it or believing in it.
I mean wait till dark then think, oh light is great, light is good BUT never turn the light switch on 
One's belief does not matter EVER. Sheesh, think of it from the other side instead of thinking the mortal can imprint the infinite, instead maybe just maybe the infinite WILL imprint the mortal IF that mortal can let go of his/her beliefs.
There is this song titled Come, it sings of something within and goes
Come Whole hearted
Come Serenity
Come as simplistic as you are
Come sincerity
Come willingness
Come exactly as you are
(goes on)
To me this is just another reminder of what I need not what I think or believe.
People argue, well the saints said this or the saint said that, who cares! What did the saints read or listen to? No one, they found something within and grew in that and that is what we all want. NOt to read a menu then listen to others that tell us "OK, now that you know about this you are no longer hungry".
One day I jumped and landed on a nail, it went all the way through my boot and stuck up about an inch..ack 
Yes there are those that can say, dude that hurt, dude would you look at what the world says or has to offer. dude your body is reacting to the nail or say, hey if you believe this it will not hurt. That one simple little human (me) just wanted it out*, just wanted the pain to go away and not one explanation will take that nail out or make it feel better.
So, no explanation or belief will take away that desire to feel content, oh it may distract us for a bit but at night when questions runs so deep or a tear flows from our eye do the same old same old.... read the menu again. 
You see we all need to know that this life is a great gift and to follow IT not beliefs.
*yes, I looked down and thought, "chit, this will hurt so man up" and just pulled.

Hi ShyGirl...and welcome!
Seek, and ye shall find
Ask, and ye shall receive
Knock, and the door shall be opened
Open your mind and you'll find that which seems impossible IS possible
Hear the words of others, but seek your own Truths
When the student is ready, the teacher will come
(just some of my favorite sayings)

90% of the answers already reside within you so why look outward?

Em  ........so glad that your coming back out again......  ..... there are so many things this can go thru..  ..........if you never learned......from your past....you will continue to go down the same road.....which is a road block..  .......because you never learned your lesson......in the first place......you will be stuck...............  Nothing ever changes and it will be a revolving door..........the teachers  can come........but.......unless you are ready to deal with things from the past.........the door remains open.....unfortunately.......you won't be able to get thru.....them until you are ready....sad but so true.......  People get stuck all the time........they never learned there lesson......

90% of the answers already reside within you so why look outward? We must stay aware of what is outside us in order to be of service to others. Questions and seeking do not have to be done 'without'.... but they must occur to continue to grow.
Besides, you answered your own question, Yash..... 90%... only 90%?
they never learned there lesson then it will keep coming at them, harsher the next time than the last, until finally, there is no choice but to learn.

90% is a general reference number for some that may be 50% or lower, yet for some it may be as high as 100%.
But since everyone goes outward for answers then every time return to their self you would think after they do that for years they would begin to wonder why they have been going outward, just to return to self.

*sigh
There is only three things to be aware off in truth. Nothing else.
You should be aware of your speech, your bodily (physical) actions and your thoughts. Only these three things cause others harm and yourself harm. Other people really cant harm you only your own frame of mind. Even if others cause you physical pain it is still your perception, your pain, your way of dealing with it.
It isnt necessary to be aware of anyone or anything around you. None of these things can effect you and nothing in your past can come creeping up on you and there are no issues from the past.
Nothing in the past is a block for your future.
Now why is this?
The past has gone! It is simple your actions at this moment in time that is your block. You can choose to wallow in the past which will not help you or you choose to let go of the past and forget worrying about it. Live in the moment in happiness and contentment. For give yourself of any wrong doing of the past and let go of them. You simply can not change the past. The ONLY thing you can do is change your present state of mind, your present state of actions whereby you guide your tomorrows.
If you guard these three actions to harm no one or yourself then you are doing the best for everyone around you and yourself. There will nothing to work out of a past you can not change, you are changing your future for the best and most importantly you will be living your present moment in calmness of mind and full awareness of the real love and happiness that is the real you and the cosmos.

Oh, so.... when I am aware of my own thoughts, actions, and speech, I will know when my mom is lonely, or depressed, or needs help with something?
well, yes, I usually do, but not everyone is tuned to the same frequency I am... they have their own.
I think that is wise advice, but I cannot agree that it is wholly for me to abide by... some, perhaps, but not even most.
you would think after they do that for years they would begin to wonder why they have been going outward to re-learn how to look within.. we have strayed far, Yash, very, very far.

Yes, if you live in the moment, you naturally become more and more aware of the moment and what is happening. In this way you become more aware of others, including mom.
In fact there is no getting in tune, thats too limiting, but finding your own mind is opening more and more to everything. Something like sitting in a middle of a mall and listening to everything at once and letting your awareness rest on anything you wish. All because you sit still and start being aware of what you are really doing in the moment. Thinking about yesterday, tomorrows or problems blocks out everything. Thats what everyone does, blocking out the realness of everything, selecting, choosing, attaching instead opening up and becoming with a greater awareness.

that's all well and good, but the world would fall apart if everyone was sitting around being self aware
I'm sorry, I'm in "service" mode these days, and it's showing in my responses. Yes, I am 'in the moment', which is where I need to be right now.
As for finding peace, what you say is correct, but we cannot always be in that 'mode'. We are human, live human lives, and live in an imperfect world....and a dangerous one.

It isnt being "self" aware but being aware of the world around you. If you look at yourself, it is the inputs from the world about you and hence being aware of the world.
And another very important things is that practicing meditation, being aware isnt about sitting and doing nothing.
It is about being aware in every moment of your life. Being in the moment. Often you read, hear explanations of, best way, if you walki, walk, if you sit, sit, if you stand, stand, if you fetch water, just fetch water.
The world is only dangerous and imperfect if you see it that way.
