Revelation 4:2 · World English Bible
Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne
The moment attention drops out of the restless mind and into pure presence, everything is seen differently. The seat set in heaven is the still center within you, the awareness that watches every passing thought without being disturbed by any of them.
From the Ego v. Being reading below.
The same verse, read by 2 traditions.

EGO & BEING
The moment attention drops out of the restless mind and into pure presence, everything is seen differently. The seat set in heaven is the still center within you, the awareness that watches every passing thought without being disturbed by any of them. It was always there, waiting beneath the surface of your thinking.
What sits enthroned is not a distant figure but the deep I Am, the consciousness that remains constant while forms come and go. When the noise subsides, you recognize this quiet presence as the ground of who you are. Being in the spirit simply means resting there, and from that stillness the whole of life is beheld.

ESOTERIC
Heaven is the head, the high chamber of consciousness inside a person, and the throne set there is the seat of governing awareness at the crown, the place from which the whole being is ruled. The one seated is the divine Self taking its rightful position, no longer wandering through the lower rooms of appetite but installed at the top where dominion belongs. To be in the spirit is the shift of attention up out of the senses into that inner heaven, and the vision opens only once that ascent has happened.
The reading is the moment a person's true center occupies its throne. When awareness lifts into the head and the higher Self sits down to govern, the ruler of one's life is present and enthroned within, not sought somewhere above the sky.
Heaven: the head, the high chamber of consciousness within a person. The throne: the seat of governing awareness at the crown, from which the whole being is ruled. The one seated: the divine Self taking its rightful place of dominion at the top of a person.
Ego v. Being lens
When your thoughts quiet down for a second, who is still here?
Two birds sit on one branch. One eats the fruit, the other simply watches. The watcher is what you actually are.
Return to stillness and you see clearly. Things rise and fall, but the quiet root they come from does not move.
Thoughts cross the sky like clouds. You are not the weather, you are the sky it happens in.
