the surrender of ego-self
Being an awakened soul has little to do with you becoming a better person, or even finding happiness within. They are both by-products. An awakening is to allow the total dismantling and eradication of ego-self, the false reality or façade that has been built, and seeing the story that has been created for what it is, so that the process of transformation can begin.
And everyone has their story, what they believe about themselves, about others, and about the world at large. Through your life experiences, particularly in the early formative years, you form opinions and beliefs that form your version of the truth. But unless your truth is shaped by Love, it is nothing more than an elaborate illusion designed by your ego-self. And in order for the real truth to be revealed, the structure must be dismantled.
Like a giant wrecking ball, Love comes to tear down the walls in order for the light to shine in. And this can be a painful process. But the surrender of ego-self must take place if transformation and permanent change are to happen. To admit that you have been deceived is also a humbling experience – but that’s what truth demands.
As the light approaches there will be an inner stirring, and suddenly it will become clear to you. You will hear the still small voice of your God source, and you will discover that there is no longer a separation between you and the divine. You will become conscious of your soul and love will explode within you. You will come to know who you are, your true self. You will gain clarity of your purpose for being. You will have a new understanding of the amazing creation that you are, that anything is possible. And you will fall in love with all of humankind, with animals, with nature, with the world at large.
There will be no more fear to control you, no more shame, no desire to judge others. There will be no more excuses, no more regrets, just a renewed zeal for taking responsibility for your actions and your life. The present moment will become alive. Love and beauty will abound everywhere. And for the first time in your life you will be able to breathe freely because your soul will be at peace. That’s transformation.
Awakening, leading to transformation, is the higher path for everyone. But despite the beauty and wonder of seeing with new eyes, many will still choose to remain asleep in the light. Your job is not to shake them from their slumber, but just to love them, to help them on their journey, to meet them where they’re at. If you do your part, Love can be trusted to do the rest.
