The realization of our most essential nature is not any different than Being present, or rather, Realizing Presence. While it is with the best of intention that people run around saying things like "just be present" or "I'm trying to stay present", it is not actually possible for us to be present. We are Being, we are Presence.
The matter of being present to our lives is one of realizing the Presence that underlies our whole life situation. It is not a matter of going from 'not present' to 'present'....in that way, there is no such thing as actual presence because it ends up just being a 'me' who 'got present'. This is already living in ignorance of the ever-present nature of Presence.
Realizing Presence, though, is the most important thing we can do as human beings. It is the realization of what has always been True, and the reality of what we have always been~ Pure Presence.
