You cannot observe your trust, you cannot measure your level of belief, trust and belief are beyond the mind.

The moment you try to perceive them, you turn the trust and belief into concepts and these are no more the true state of connectedness to the beyond you are longing to so much.

So, not being able to observe your trust and belief, what is then left for you to do in order to increase them, to elevate your connectedness?

The answer is tricky, yet simple: observe the complementary - the part which is within the boundaries of the perception of the mind: your skepticism. Observe your disbelief, your distrust. Observe them and accept them fully.

As soon as you observe and accept your distrust and disbelief, they will diminish, in other words, your belief and trust will increase. You will notice it very clearly as your level of connectedness will strengthen immediately.
