There
is nothing more important in life than to discover a deep personal
relationship with freedom and love. Real true freedom is something
that cannot be taken away from you, for it already is the very essence
of your essence. It is the nature of who you are, and abides beyond the
efforts of the mechanical achieving mind, at the core heart essence of
your being. You don't have to give up anything to reach it, or try to
create it with your mind. You simply have to realize there already is
an eternal source of vast creative powerful intelligent energy inside
us all, available for you to do whatever you want with it in each new
moment.
The
feeling of true freedom has an unlimited expansive quality to it. It
feels like life has no walls, no ceilings, no windows, no floors and no
doors. There is a deeper knowing that anything is possible, and you
have the power in you to change anything you want to about your life.
This understanding is extremely powerful. When you taste it for even a
single moment, you know without a doubt that there is nothing that you
cannot experience that you want to in this life. You feel unstoppable
in reaching all that you desire. You know that any experience you want
to manifest can be yours, and you know that we all have the power
inside us to attract everything and anything we can imagine.
To
find this freedom simply relax your body, let go of your mind, and
follow your breath. Go beyond the mechanical achieving mind and drop
into the heart essence of your very being. Feel into the energy and air
surrounding you. Surrender completely to what is here now, in this
very experience of your life. Open yourself up as wide and vast as you
can imagine. Feel into the feeling that you have access to every
experience you've ever had in your entire life. It is all available to
you now. If the mind needs something more specific to meditate upon,
tell it to focus on unbounded spaciousness. Sending the mind in
this direction you'll find your thoughts soon quiet and soften. It is
in this unbounded spacious experience that we all discover our greatest
power and source of unlimited potentiality.
The
reason that most people don't feel free in every aspect of their lives
is because are believing in a lie. They understand that to attain
freedom, they must become free from something. This type of
freedom is illusory and always temporary. The true freedom that I'm
referring to is not found by trying to avoid or escape from anything in
life. It is better understood as a freedom for something, rather than a freedom from
something. This real true freedom embraces every problem, issue and
situation as divine. It is seeing life is the perfect teacher and how
everything is happening exactly as it needs to. This real freedom
cannot be given to you by anything or anyone, which is why it cannot be
taken away by the outer world.
True
freedom is really quite radical. The mind can have a challenging time
trying to understand where it is, what creates it and how to grasp it.
The mind cannot imagine that in the midst of all the challenging
situations you're facing in your life today, that you can simply rest
in the most expansive freeing feeling possible. The mind thinks you
have to achieve some goal before you can become free. When you drop
this idea of having to achieve anything on your inner world or outer
world, you see that true freedom is always right here, right now,
always available to you and that you never had to do anything in this
world to experience it. Once you discover you have permanent access to
true freedom, you'll wonder why you were ever wasting your time trying
to settle for the temporary state of freedom that would one day be
taken away from you.
It's
good to know that all the dramas we get to face in life are always
opportunities for deeper spiritual growth. Anytime you hear yourself
(or someone else) making an emotional complaint, remember that this is
an argument to remain limited in power, love and unbounded freedom.
The mind tends to dwell on what is not working instead of what is
working. It often forgets that anything is possible. It forgets we
are divine all powerful beings capable of manifesting anything we put
our attention upon. The mind tends to dwell on what's not right, what's
not right, what needs to change, and thus this is what it manifests
more of. Whatever we put our attention on grows, and when the mind
dwells on the heart of true freedom, the most amazing magical encounters
begin presenting themselves to you.
On
this path to freedom I find that it is important to know yourself, and
how the mind works. The mind easily becomes accustomed to living a
life filled with limitations and self-restrictions. In some way we
humans like having tight walls and a low ceiling around us because it
makes us feel safe and secure. Yet this is a false security we set up
so that we don't have to stretch too much beyond our comfort zone. We
can play the same small cozy games we have known for years. We don't
have to step into the unknown, we don't have to be powerful, love
unconditionally, or really forgive others in the past who have wronged
us. The mind can become unconsciously comfortable, repeating our sad
story of powerlessness, playing the victim in certain areas of our lives
just so we don't have to do anything differently. It gets addicted to
the ever pending challenge of trying to break free, without ever
really knowing what real freedom is.
Have
you stopped to wonder how free you actually are in your life? How
free are you financially, in your relationships, with your energy,
health, consciousness, and in your love life? I invite you to take a
very long deep look inside yourself this week and continuously ask
yourself, "How free am I really?" Explore all the walls of your
inner prison and notice what they are made of. What are the limiting
beliefs, fears, attachments and restrictions that you place on you?
Who would you be without ANY of these limiting thoughts and feelings?
What would you do differently with your life? What conversations would
you have with others and how would you interact differently with your
closest friends and family?
You
will know you've found true freedom when you are no longer pulled down
by the dramas of life, yet are continuously empowered by them. With
freedom you will find each moment contains the deepest level of peace
you can imagine. You will see that nothing of this world can shake
you, yet only awakens you to a deeper understanding of your unlimited
creative power. True freedom doesn't mind the drama of life, yet
welcomes it. It embraces your mind's limitations, using them to grow
beyond those old paradigms, forcing you into being all loving, all
powerful, knowing the God Source is the core of everything and
everyone, including your very essence. When you live this truth
everyday, a natural expansive energy will take over your life, moving
you effortlessly forward into the direction of feeling unstoppable in
all that you do.
