Connecting to what is of true value is always in reach. You may ask how to do this. When you are open, teachers enter your scope to guide you to recognize the obstacle is the Path. Ultimately, its up to you to take steps to let go of what prevents you from feeling what it is to be valuable. Ponder these 5 tips to orient your focal point of attention:
1. Expand consciousness
Each person is on a unique journey to grow more consciously present to that which is of value. The ego has its own ideas of external examples of value. Expanding consciousness is about shifting to focus on what value feels like to the soul. This may be very different from what the ego has you believe is valuable.
2. Know everything is part of a system of value exchange
Whether it be money, time, the tangible or intangible, all things are part of a system of give and take. When you are capable of polar thinking, you come to see polar opposites go together. You cannot give without taking, cannot take without giving. Reality is energetically balanced, even if your filters do not register this. It is conscious echange that makes all the difference. Figure and background go together. They are not mutually-exclusive. All events have a witness. If you truly wish to see the value of exchange, when a person asks you a question about the sacred, answer in secular terms. If you are asked of the eternal, answer in terms of the temporal. When asked about the abstract, answer in concrete terms. Knowing this allows you to move forward consciously, accepting innate value and creating value in all you do.
3. Be at peace with yourself
Being at peace with yourself is about recognizing and detaching from attachments and aversions to money and all perceived forms of value, wealth, prosperity and exchange. Regaining a conscious connection to yourself results in massive breakthroughs, moving into your desinty with greater purpose, conscious intent, and feeling into what this process is really about.
4. Be the Worldbridger
You are the bridge between the material and non-material worlds. You must give yourself the gift of conscious presence before listening to and hearing true Self, tuning in to what is actually of value to the Soul.
5. Meditate
Truth is a state of meditation consciousness. Trust arises in awareness as one takes the role of observer and views how you simultaneously participate in human life. It hits that mediation is the avenue though which you access deeper intuition, grow aware of how to transcend apparent obstacles, activate, materialize and realize rather than what Gurdjieff calls, In Search of Being. Isira Sananda reminds us we are each our own Awakening Place. She echoes, "Why worry about what you should be when you can simply be what you are."
