The consciousness that you are can be experienced like this. Wherever you are (forest or walking in nature is best) just take in everything before you without labeling, naming, judging good or bad or defining in any way...just observe...take it in. Then stop and note who it is that is observing and you will find it has no age race, gender, or anything that defines it...it just is...and that is who you are...that consciousness which is indefinable but can be experienced...that is the Source of what you are.
Try it...don't just think about it...do it and you will see.
