The politics and promotion of awareness

Change will come when we can recognize a presence in the eyes of others and feel a sense of wholeness radiating from them in our hearts. There is no need to make awareness, spirituality, or religion into a product that appeals to minds. To sell it like a commodity that some have exclusive rights too and no one else.

Change does not come through the mind, adaptation does. The mind can adapt and mimic anything, but it is still unreal in the adaptation of it. It is only an attempt to mimic what it cannot become in reality.

Organizations, groups and societies that promote social and religious ideas or change are simply creating a power base to influence others and not bring about any real change. This does not mean that you cannot share insights and information, but movements about spiritual awareness are not needed. You cannot organize a movement where personal freedom is at its core. The universe makes no copies.

Change comes on its own terms without the influence of anyone, other than the circumstances that help to make us aware that we are deceived within and living a lie. Change comes when there is nowhere to look for truth or answers except that which comes from within us and for us.

Your inner intelligence

Listen to your inner intelligence. If someone asks you to listen to their idea or thought it is no big deal to simply open your mind and consider what you are hearing. We are conditioned daily to think and listen to others, but when it comes to our personal thoughts or feelings we are lost in a world of conflicting values and concepts.

Listen to your feelings, listen to your body, ask them to speak to you in ways that you can understand and intuitively translate. This is half of the process of becoming aware. You do not have to meditate elaborately, or for hours on end to get the source of your truth. You have to understand that what you feel is much more important than any opinion of another, no matter who they are.

We are the most real and natural when we listen to our feelings and have the courage to share them honestly, when we face and share our vulnerability and truth. The deeper one goes into their feelings, the more apparent it becomes that great consciousness and personal authenticity begin to manifest, we are not as stupid as we thought.

The problem for many is that they are hung up on the words spiritual and religious, they think and believe that the solution to their issues are mental and can be solved by understanding techniques and ideas. Your feelings are the most spiritual and religious part of you, they put you into a direct and natural connection to the universe. You don’t need anyone or anything to intervene for you. You already have the personal computer of your life connected to the virtual internet of the universe.

Transfer of data is a natural byproduct of computers and networks, awareness is a natural result of a heart that feels, trust and allows the universe to download content it wants to share. When you feel you transcend the boundaries of time and space and enter the universe of truth and reality. You can temper the idea of death with the understanding that feelings transcend who we think we are.

You carry the seed within you

Life will teach you the truth if you allow it, but many are looking outside their life to be taught. It is in the school of feelings that you learn the truth of life and not in the ideas of mankind. You cannot learn about something so personal as your life by looking into ideas, you must examine your feelings and allow them to reveal what is true for you and about you.

Fear of abandonment and lack of acceptance by others often prevent the real and true discovery of self. The ego cries to be like others or better, but refuses to acknowledge that they are already good enough as they are. It constantly pushes the imagination to create a false persona so that discovery of what is real within is colored by vain hopes that seldom are realized.

You cannot run from who you really are and hope to find peace and fulfillment, it is only in knowing how and what you really feel that you uncover the self that wishes to blossom within you. It is only within the deep seed of your feelings and the fertilizer of a surrendered ego that the flower of your true self blooms.

Who has the power?

No one has the power to give you what you need, but you. Many can and will promise to give you love, peace, prosperity, wisdom and truth, but the reality is that they are offering promises they cannot fulfill.

You determine the quantity and quality of peace, power, wisdom, love and truth that you possess by the level of awareness that you receive from within. All outer promises are wishful thinking and smoke screens from those who want something from you. In the lack of their personal power others seek to trick you out of your own by making you dependent upon your unfulfilled hopes and their promises.

The reason that the world and others often seem more powerful than you is because you may have given your all to support their quest for external power and spent little effort in seeking the true power within. An insecure person will seek to support others before they will give support to themselves.

Fear seeks to get externally what it cannot give to itself internally. Freedom from internal torment is what fear seeks and the insecure desire above all.

Our inner hypocrite

To be aware is to focus our attention upon that which we were not previously conscious of. In the case of many it is our own feelings that we are not aware of. The ego and mind bully them into the background, until the pain of rejecting and ignoring them is too great to bear or we come crashing down in a flood of tears and sobs.

If we want to become upset with something, become upset with the unaware life we are living. Most of our life is hidden behind the curtain of the mind and ego. We live in a world full of empty words and promises, all because we have not found the truth within our being.

Words have become our fake currency, instead of love, compassion, peace and wisdom to guide the choices within our lives. We have become very good at talking about that which we do not understand or experience within.

We live, work and even play with very little authenticity to our actions and we wonder why we are bored with our lives and others. The magic and mystery of life are buried deep behind the gracious words of the hypocrite within us.

The truth in nature

All of our misery is because we identify with the mind and ego, our identity is outside the natural state of our being, we have shut down our feelings to think. This causes us to be out of sync with our true and natural nature.

Wisdom, Knowledge and Awareness are waiting for us, but we must feel again the life force within us. We should not make excuses for ourselves! We should not turn away and avoid the most important decision of our life! We choose daily whether we are building a future of peace, wisdom and balance or of loss of all that has real value and meaning in this world and the next.

We do not have to sacrifice one for the other, but we do have to decide which is the foundation upon which we wish to build our life. This cannot succeed if we build on a foundation that is not in alignment with the natural truth of existence. Nature itself understands that to succeed it must follow the truth within universal energies and never goes against itself. It surrenders willingly.

Only man refuses to follow the force of life and the truth in existence. We cannot go against the truth and nature of our being and not suffer, it is impossible.

The simple truth

The truth is very personal in the sense that it is for each person individually and also collectively. You are a very unique expression of life. No one has a truth exactly like yours, but many seek to find and follow the truth of others. This is why it is so rare that anyone finds their truth, because you are looking everywhere except within you.

Life is the natural expression of being, it does not require words, ideas, or the permission of others to be.

To find life you must feel, you don’t have to speak, search in books, listen to tapes, watch video or follow the experience of others. Using the mind and external senses is a sure way to not find your truth.

It is feeling and allowing the silence to reveal your true identity that brings your life and truth to you. It is letting go of expectations and watching or witnessing life as it moves through you in time and space. It is the detached observation with awareness that reveals who you are.
