Our Ego-mind wants to identify, separate & disable any rival. Even if that rival ‘guidance system’ is an integral part of our true sovereign nature! Any alternative is however seen as an existential threat to the Ego’s power & control!
Instead of just using Ego, our true ‘sovereign-self’ uses a guidance system that extends far beyond thought. This ‘inner-guidance’ process cannot be easily defined or described. It’s beyond conventional terms, symbols or concepts. It’s beyond the reach of all thought-based processes. But there is still a way to get there!
To access this optimal guidance system, we need to bypass Ego, thinking and even thought itself!
So that’s where we now need to head! Let’s first try to sample this. We will do this in the contemplative & experiential exercise that now follows. That’s if you really want to bypass Ego and connect to your higher-Self?
TO PROCEED & ‘TO RECONNECT’ we offer THIS GUIDANCE:
Don’t allow your thought-based mind or Ego-mind enter into this. Don’t let it label, control or sabotage this final re-connection 'process'. Don’t let it substitute for your ‘Intuitive Guidance’ and ‘Direct Knowing’. Don’t allow it to sabotage your ‘Direct Experiencing’ of this State. That’s ‘the way’ to bypass our Ego-mind…by choosing to negate the value of thinking & even bypass thought itself in this circumstance.
THIS IS AN INTUITIVE PROCESS & ONE OF DIRECT KNOWING.
The FINAL STAGE of reconnecting to our higher Self:
Just be still & relax your whole body. Breath naturally and become aware of the gap between your breaths. Quieten your mind even more… Instead of actively thinking of a response, solution or way forward, just be still & receptive.
That’s where we’re heading…into that stillness! Let’s directly & intuitively experience what exists there!
BE OPEN & WELCOMING TO WHAT ELSE IS PRESENT WHEN THOUGHTS SUBSIDE.
Remember, this ‘space’ or ‘void’ we will be visiting, must remain empty of thinking & thoughts. Thinking about anything, will immediately eject us from ‘that space’. So, we just won’t experience the ‘real-thing’. This realm is rich in many other wonders. Aim to discover these experientially using your sixth-sense or heart-based mode.
INSTEAD OF THINKING ABOUT WHAT’S THERE, WE CAN DIRECTLY EXPERIENCE WHAT EXISTS IN THAT QUIET SPACE.
We’re now heading ‘home’ to our true-nature. So welcome and joyfully anticipate this homecoming! Remember…no active thinking! This is a thought-free zone!
TUNE IN TO THE QUIET SPACE THAT REMAINS WHEN YOUR THOUGHTS ARE NO LONGER DOMINANT.
If it helps, visualize being in ‘that space’ or ‘gap’ between your thoughts. Imagine being part of that special space between & around all your thoughts. If you feel comfortable enough, slowly expand your awareness to the space between & around all possible thoughts.
SENSE & FEEL THE QUALITY OF THIS VAST SACRED SPACE.
Stay there in that space being open to anything but without any expectation!
Enjoy the nature and quality of this space and this whole experience.
SENSE & FEEL THE FULL NATURE OF WHAT’S PRESENT.
USE YOUR INTUITION & HEART-BASED GUIDANCE TO FINE-TUNE INTO A SUBTLE PRESENCE.
It’s from ‘this Space’ & ‘this Presence’ that we experience our true Nature. WE DIRECTLY EXPERIENCE THIS SPECIAL QUALITY. This direct experiencing is only felt with our sixth-sense or Heart-connection. IDENTIFY WITH THIS BLISSFUL FEELING, THIS PRESENCE & THIS ‘HOME-COMING’.
Hold this experience for as long as you can! Become familiar with this unique State feels like to you. Once even partly experienced, it becomes easier to return there on future occasions. You may be able to enhance the experience with more practice.
PRACTICE RE-VISITING THIS STATE WHENEVER YOU HAVE SOME QUIET TIME.
Here is how to ASSESS your SUCCESS & PROGRESS in this reconnection:
You will know you have been successful in this initial re-connection when you continue to feel joyful, peaceful and loving after this encounter. You have sampled your higher-Self and your grand-Nature. The longer your feeling of bliss & joy lasts, the better your re-connection has become.
You will then most likely want to repeat and expand this experience. As you become more successful in doing this you will realize and utilize the benefits that flow from this. Then eventually you may want to live in this expanded state through your daily life.
What comes next…what’s potentially available?
From this ‘connection or entry-point’ we can progressively access the WHOLENESS & COMPLETENESS of our BEING. Further exploration occurs as we practice this connection and raise ‘our vibration’ Our vibration is the level of our higher awareness or human Consciousness.
In this process, we are tapping into the milieu or habitat of pre-existence itself. This is the nurturing medium from which ALL creation is birthed - where all information is known, and every potential exists. So, potentially we have access to all this.
This connection, interaction and Presence, when we can finally sense it, even subtly, is predominantly what we are. It’s an intimate connection, communication & cooperation with ‘All that is and ever will be’. This union exists beyond the limitation of time, space and matter. As an infant & young child we instinctively & intuitively already knew most of this. So, what went wrong? We discuss this in the next blog post of this series.
