Self Awareness.

You know that you are unique in this world, there is no one on the entire planet that is exactly like you. You are one of a kind, an intricate part of the web of life. A majestic soul manifesting your intent upon the rich tapestry that gives shape and substance to the universe itself. There is no separation between you and the universe, you and the entire cosmos are one. It is merely our limiting beliefs that make us feel separate, alone. These beliefs were conditioned into our consciousness from childhood. They are not who we really are! These negative beliefs can actually bend time and space to match our state of consciousness, causing us to attract people and events into our life that match our fears and insecurities.

The circus elephant is conditioned from youth by means of a chain and peg in the ground, the baby struggles against it chains and finding them impossible to break, gives up. As the elephant matures it becomes a large and mighty creature and although it gains great strength it is still unable to break the tiny chains that bind it. We are just like this elephant, blind to our true reality, blind to our true potential. It is important to realize that when we are feeling down we are not seeing our true reality. We are wearing a mask of sorts, an actor in a play of our own creation. When we truly learn to relax, when we become truly mindful we begin to take off the mask and play the role that we are meant to play.

Our true self is compassionate and kind to both ourselves and others. This core part of our being is non judgemental and it really feels from deep within that we are all one in spirit, that we are all connected with one another energeticly.

We begin to discover that the true nature of the universe is love and clear light, and we in turn are part of this cosmic love this radient light. That is what we truly are, when we take off the mask and bask in the diamond like nature of our own inner light.

Change and Acceptance

It can often be difficult to accept that things change. We can feel like our heart is like a fine glass ball, we clutch it tightly, anxiously. We are terrified to move in any direction in case it were to drop and shatter into a million tiny piece's. This is an illusion, in truth our heart is much more like a rubber ball, it will always bounce back no matter how many times we drop it. It is simply the perception that shatters our ego as it were.

The more relaxed we are the more clearly we see reality and the less we are adversly affected by change. Change is always happening just like the waves breaking on a beach. Sometimes the waves are small, other times they are literary massive. But when observed from a distance the waves are a beautful and majestic sight. When observed from a distance our problems too have less impact and can be seen in a different light. Once we realize that everything in this universe is cyclic, always changing then we can begin to embrace change without judgment, without fear. We develop that stillness within while surfing the waves of life.
