Move beyond assumptions

Notice a widespread assumption is that Truth is a hidden thing to reach or acquire. It is assumed that the Truth is separate from us, somewhere other than where we are. One belief is enlightened people know something that "I/ you/we don't." What happens when things shift and it feels like everybody knows something I/you/we don't? Even this is a form of knowing. We tell ourselves we are seeking what we really want to know while secretly, we know a whole lot. We know we judge ourselves as worthy or unworthy, guilty or innocent or are attempting to be something we are not. We gimpse pockets of knowing. We are taught to spend our lives seeking. Even if at some stage we take the spiritual path, we tend to seek/acquire knowledge in books and through teachers because we are taught to assume "somebody knows." Even as teachers invite us to know who we are, then we assume the teacher knows. We think our own freedom or liberation is some missing piece of knowlege that is going to remove our insecurity. Yet, everything we think we know or not is simply a product of our own conditioning, nothing more or less. Where did we learn our concepts, morals, ethics, beliefs in anything to reach "enlightenment?" Many people simply adopt conditioning without seeing fully. What can we know with absolute certainty? Nothing. (We may know with greater or lesser certainty, but nothing with absolute certainty). When you know you do not know or cannot know anything, you come to know oneness (Truth) without effort. When we embark on spiritual inquiry looking for an answer, to write a book about it or tell everyone, it leads us to not knowing who we are. Ego cannot grasp this. Its impossible to know who or what you are. We can only be who we are knowingly, in silence. Be here Now.

Imagine you are soul

Notice what happens as you judge and see things in terms of duality, good and bad. Then observe and be aware without judging. Notice how it feels to see worlds through the lens of soul. Notice how simply being with yourself allows you to exist in harmony with apparent duality. Its not you.

As you imagine you are soul, you can move beyond this imagined vision.  How? Stop noticing this is not done. Stop noticing who or what you are not. Let go of any thoughts or feelings of absence. Get into the presence of what already exists. Allow the soulful state to fill you. Move from a sense of possibility to certainty. Move into the state that is.  Allow yourself to feel something into being.

In other words, feel no absence of the manifested reality. Know the absence of resistance. Revel in the state of being. Feel how easy it is to focus. Be comfortable. The specifics of the vision are part of the process of the flow. The momentum is natural. The more you relax and meditate, you align with core love, harmony and well-being. When you sleep, you stop thought and resistance and align with this core vibration. Establish a vibration that is non-resistant. Allow who you are to reveal itself.

Impossible to ignore

Notice what happens as you do your best to form a conscious relationship with all that is good. You focus your attention on uplifting thoughts, on activities that enable you to feel good about yourself. Suddenly, you have more and more direct experiences that reveal to you what is impossible to ignore. The obvious invites you to be more aware of the nature of your own metamorphosis. You look for the path or bridge you are already on.

Its like a breath of fresh air.  You feel the release of clarity, of sensations, feelings, signs and synchronicities that all point to something the conditioned mind refuses to believe.  You sense you are receiving something hard to define but you know with increasing certainty how it feels.  Everything is a silent teacher inviting you to trust yourSelf more.  

In essence, you are shifting from a logic and reasoning-based existence to something that feels like it cannot be physically explained. Standing back gives you insight into real stability. You begin to realize that your beliefs create a mental image and your attention focuses the thought energy to hold your perceptions together. Beyond what you think you see, vibration is behind what is emerging in your physical experience.

The heart knows when you desire to know something, the universe gives you evidence of it. Unconsciousness may deny it but awareness confirms it. Open the senses. Recognize the nature of the journey expands based on your attention. As you focus on different ways love presents in your life, what you feel is impossible to ignore. Through appreciation, inner power quietly makes itself known. What do you feel is impossible to ignore?

"You can measure the impeccability of your word by your level of self-love. How much you love yourself and how you feel about yourself are directly proportionate to the quality and integrity of your word. When you are impeccable with your word, you feel good; you feel happy and at peace." - Don Miguel Ruiz

Celebrate your rough edges

Ever notice perceptions of 'rough edges' or imperfections work themselves out through your experience? As you nurture patience and observe things in their basic simplicity, clarity arises.  What you outgrow or unlearn dissolves beliefs.  You move from self-doubt into realms of certainty, where you allow things to be as they are and accept self unconditionally.  You access silent inner knowing, feelings of joy and bliss.  

Notice that as awareness expands within, you begin to understand how and why you lose touch with inner knowing.  You recall you control internal shifts based on action, ripening insight, sensing living energy and grasping messages sent from within.  From the inside-out, you hold power to Transform Your Life.

What makes you so sure?

What convinces you that you are alive right now? How do you know this is not all a dream and you will soon awaken? Consider this situation carefully. Draw from whatever senses and perception define reality for you.  Nothing is right or wrong. It is how you choose to sense it at this moment.
