The truth about awakening is that it is critical that we awaken to a deeper truth about our experiences on this planet, particularly now when so many people are preoccupied with current events. Rising food and fuel costs, continuing warfare, economic downturns, and natural disasters signal a time of global crisis. When we add to this picture our own personal and professional challenges, the future does not look very promising.

New Age leaders teach the importance of “focusing on the Light” and using your thoughts, feelings, and actions to “attract” what you want to experience in your life. Focusing on your fears and the things you don’t want attracts more of the same, they tell you. If you can learn to “change your energy field,” you can begin to change what appears in your life. And when you begin to understand the power of your thoughts and feelings, the importance of monitoring the focus of your attention, and controlling your behavior patterns, you begin to “wake up.” The attraction seems to be the key. However, even though the “Law of Attraction” is becoming an everyday concept, conditions on earth don’t seem to be improving. On a personal level, you probably still feel frustrated and powerless when it comes to changing your life, as evidenced by the proliferation of new programs on the Internet that promise you tea key that “you will ultimately create the life you want right now.”

But perhaps there is a deeper perspective available that, if added to our current understanding (that we are in the midst of an awakening process), will create the critical mass needed for real change to happen. This perspective, the higher self perspective, is beginning to emerge in consciousness.

Consider the possibility that much of the fear and inertia that is holding you back from moving forward in your life could be alleviated by knowing that your higher self has planned your life’s experiences. for you to grow, so that you would come to know yourself as “someone who rose to the challenge”. Because his higher self had planned everything in his life, including his biggest challenges, he has the ability to successfully complete those challenges. In other words, the keys to the fulfillment of your life can be found within you. All you have to do is reconnect with your higher self, develop a relationship with it so you can listen to its guidance (your intuition) and trust enough to move on quickly and consistently.

As you begin to do this, you will glimpse your soul’s original plan. Your life will begin to make more sense to you and you will begin to understand how it fits into the larger “ground experience” or “ground game.”

On a collective level, if we knew that each of us has a role in planning this running game, and if we remembered why we agreed to “play the game” in the first place, we would see the world’s crises as opportunities rather than terrible ones. things to avoid. We would know that we had the inner power to complete the challenges successfully.

I came to understand that we created this land game a long, long time ago, and with good intentions too: so we could learn and grow. As new souls, we longed to discover who we really were, and the best way to know ourselves was through firsthand experience. For variety, we create variety on earth, including a variety of belief systems. Things got interesting when some of us agreed to be the “good guys” and others the “not so good guys.” From time to time we reversed roles to find out what it was like on the other side. We did all of this for each other knowing that this Earth experiment would be instrumental in helping us evolve as quickly as possible. Although we knew that some of our experiences would be extremely difficult, we knew that this was the fastest way to spiritual growth. We also knew that this time in “duality” would be temporary. At some point, while we were in the process of learning our final lessons, we would remember that this was “just” a game we had made once. We could successfully complete the game, that is: create a new world, a “Golden Age”.

Now we will not remember the planning of this game, this “fall into consciousness” (in the sense of having conscious memories of it). In order to play it properly, we needed to forget that we had planned it. Forgetting was required to play the game “for real.” It was also required to purchase the belief systems that each of us purchased. Had we known we made them up, we might not have played this game with full conviction, which would have derailed the learning experiences our souls truly wanted. But our souls are powerful, so powerful that we have created an illusion and then lived it as if it were real in order to achieve bigger and much nobler goals for ourselves.

By facing the challenges of my own life, I came to understand that each and every person on this planet had agreed to play the game of duality. (Or you can call this game “dark versus light” or “learning through contrast,” if you like.) If your higher self hadn’t agreed to play this earth game, you wouldn’t be here right now. Also, you have a unique life purpose, an individual contribution that will help fulfill the game. “Fulfill your soul’s purpose” is another way of saying “rise to the challenge.”

So unless you can begin to see the big picture, unless you can understand from your soul’s perspective: that this earthly experience is like a dream that you and yours (those involved in your life) had purposely planned. to grow up, only then can you consider yourself waking up from the dream. And the more the vastness of your higher self’s perspective and understanding becomes conscious to you, the more you can consider yourself awake.

So humanity did not actually “fall from grace” as we were led to believe, but intentionally planned this “fall” as if it were real so that we could learn, grow, and experience rising again. This further implies that you are much more powerful and good than you know yourself to be. Realizing the extent of your power helps you take effective action, but you may not. know yourself as powerful unless you experience yourself be powerful, which means starting to solve your current challenges. Solving your own challenges will help solve the crises on this planet.

Meeting the challenge requires something, of course. A commitment is required to develop a relationship with your higher self. Courage is also required, as your deeper wisdom and purpose will likely go against collective conditioning.

Once the relationship with your higher self is at least so important and as real to you as any of your other relationships, once you trust enough to follow its guidance (expressed from your higher self) quickly and consistently, you experience what is called “critical mass.” This is the point where the universe begins to cooperate like never before, because you are now “aligned with” the divine plan. This is also when you begin to discover your hidden gifts, tapping into that part of you that has been around forever: your higher self.

While this may require something of you, you don’t need to become Mother Teresa or Gandhi; you have your own contributions based on your individual gifts and talents. Human beings have both a common general purpose (to learn, grow, etc.) and a specific purpose based on individual identity. This suggests that the individual, personality or “ego” should not be “denied” as some have proposed, but rather accepted and even accentuated. By the way, “Unity” does not mean that we all become the same, or that we return to some nebulous source where your identity no longer exists. It simply means that your “ego” and your higher self are integrated within you.

So while you don’t need to feel like you’re attempting something impossible, you do need to commit and get “serious” about your soul’s purpose. Because that’s when the universe will support you; that’s when you will receive what you need to fulfill your purpose. The universe will answer your questions, synchronicities will occur regularly, you will know that you are on the right track.

The world is as it is and circumstances are as they are so that we can discover who we are, even who we are when times get tough. (Isn’t that where it counts?) We have the ability to fulfill our deepest dreams by following our inner guidance and expressing ourselves from our higher selves.

We cannot fail if we follow this guide. If we can begin to see from the perspective of the soul, if we can see this time as an opportunity, we can be vehicles for truth and freedom; we can succeed. The power of the higher self expressed through the human psyche and body is what will change this planet, and nothing else. This is the truth about awakening.
