I have a concept for you
Something that you may not realise
And something that you may have been doing wrong for many many years
You see in this game of life we are constantly trying to GET SOMEWHERE
We feel we need to change this and that to be where we want to be
We have to do this before we can be happy
Lose weight before we can be beautiful
Have more clarity before we can be successful
The thing is none of this is true
For everything you are seeking for ALREADY exists within you
YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING
And what is within you is pure, unchanging, beautiful
The good news is that you cannot harm it, or even kill this unchanging essence of you
It is always there
BUT
It can get covered up
Hidden
Forgotten
In meditation we begin to peel away the layers
Revealing who we really are
Exposing that which never changes
And it isn’t learnt
It’s not something that a teacher can give you
For it is already there
You simply become MORE OF WHO YOU REALLY ARE
EXERCISE
Try this technique
See if this switch helps you to view life in a different way….
Rather than try to be something else (happier, healthier, sober etc..), choose to not be the opposite any longer. For example rather than saying,
“I want to be sober”
Say instead,
“I’m done with drinking”
Or rather than saying,
“I want to be free”
Say instead,
“I’m done with being stuck”
Can you see the difference?
Notice the subtle shift in energy?
Rather than chasing something that is off in the distance, you are leaving behind that which you are moving on from. This can be a great help especially when we are feeling particularly overwhelmed; it helps us to see from a altered place, to shift our perception, and set ourselves free.
