Spiritually enlightened, what is it? How does it feel and how do you know you are enlightened?
Firstly there’s a problem with the very word itself. The word itself is definitive and static. The word conceptualizes the completion of a process that is eternally transcendent.
People have become hung up on the word. They refer to it as a state of consciousness that is attainable in the future. People are seeking enlightenment as if it is something they can become once and for all.
You can never achieve enlightenment as it is an ongoing process. People, who say that they are enlightened, declare themselves by the very statement, that they are unenlightened. The only correct use of the word is to declare that you have achieved a certain level of enlightenment….and even this is definitive and limiting.
Forgiveness is the most important of all the keys you need to unlock the shackles that keep your consciousness encrypted from revelations. Without forgiveness many facets of your consciousness remain restricted and untapped.
Ultimately, lack of forgiveness is fear. Although lack of forgiveness has its justifications carefully cloaked with righteousness and injustice, its true origins can be found rooted in perverted schisms of fear.
The primordial fear of loss, created by the illusion of need, gives birth to infinite matrices of fear in which the true source of ‘lack of forgiveness’ can be attributed.
A special kind of love. A love that only wishes it could express itself through words on a page. A love that when only fractionally grasped and clarified by literature, can change someone’s life. A love that is fierce and gentle, patient and kind.
Are you expressing love the best you can, or are you being caught up in the illusion of time not realising that you entire life is but a second in length?
When you truly awake, that is to say when you die, you will come to realise the disproportionate importance you placed on trivial matters as you were fooled by the illusion of time. You had been tricked by the appearance of death, whilst you forever pondered the veiled concept of ultimate reality. But that’s not entirely fair, for you did choose to forget so you could experience relativity.
Everyone has experienced fear. We’re not talking about the instinctive self preservation fear, we’re talking about psychological fear, the kind that can really cripple you.
Its fear that stops you from doing the things you yearn to do and from being the person you really want to be. Fear that distorts our perceptions and manipulates our behaviors.
Fear that dwells on the threshold of your consciousness causing you to make choices that are limiting, and fear that keeps you trapped in situations, that you know, do not serve you. Fear can manipulate you in an infinite number of ways because it is self created by you and you are infinite.
So let’s take some time to discover what fear is, and bring some light onto your self created delusional illusions…
An angry, jealous, vengeful God of wrath…umm I don’t think so. Just human qualities assigned to God by humans for the purpose of control via fear.
The books of the bible were written by 40 authors over a period of approximately 2200 years. The oldest book of ‘Job’ was reportedly written in 2150BC, and youngest book of ‘revelations’ in 90AD. These God inspired books are called ‘autographs’ and were scribed upon stone, metal, clay and animal skins.
The writings of the autographs were copied, and then copied again and again to sustain the message. All original autographs have been either destroyed, lost, or have disintegrated. They were then compiled together and certain books were either included or omitted at the discrepancy of a committee of the highest church fathers.
Sometimes there is a very blurry line between feeling and expressing compassion, and enabling someone. Showing compassion is giving someone space and understanding so they can work through their predicament whilst remaining at a healthy emotional distance.
This healthy emotional distance can be hard to judge in close knit relationships such as marriage and families. For should one fall over the edge of compassion and into the field of pity, neither party will benefit. Pity serves no one in relation to creating the desired changes within relationships of any kind.
Now that we have exposed why fear is prevalent in our lives lets examine the very nature of it. The realistic nature of fear is ultimately illusionary. To help us comprehend its illusionary nature let’s consider a dream as an example.
Now within nightmares we experience traumatic thoughts and emotions. Whilst in the grip of a nightmare, nothing is seemingly more real than the thoughts and feeling we are experiencing.
Ultimately the dream is an illusion. The dreams are brought forth via our subconscious for the purpose of revealing to us our attributes (that require healing) that remain otherwise hidden below the threshold of our consciousness.
Whilst experiencing the dream, our thoughts and feelings within the dream are real, but ultimately the dream itself and the accompanying thoughts and feelings have no consequence in what we call reality.
Spirituality is intuition. It’s tapping into the secret chamber of your heart and living from a place that is true to ‘you’. It’s leaving behind opinions and trends and living intuitively from within. Intuition requires you to be in the present moment.
All of us have goals that we desire to achieve yet all too often we get caught up in the plans. Nothing great that has ever been achieved has gone according to plan.
The great oak tree starts out as a seed. It doesn’t know what it will become, it just grows. If you desire to accomplish a goal, just start on the path, no matter how vague your sense of direction is. Trust that you will be given the exact means you require to accomplish your desired outcome.
