How to Discover Real Love and Purpose in Your Life, Part II
Who Do You Think You Are?
This is Part II of a two part blog.
the source of the limitless potential within us in the following manner:
There shines not the sun, neither the moon nor star,
nor flash of lightening, nor fire lit on earth as bright.
The Self is the light reflected by all.
He shining, everything shines after him.
And as the Sufi mystics write:
He whom the galaxies can not contain, he is in my little heart.
The key to “being present” for oneself is found in meditation. Because in meditation one gives oneself the opportunity to truly come to “Know Thy Self”—that is, to truly come to know who you ARE and why you ARE!
It is so hard for the ego mind to wrap itself around who you really ARE. The ego mind is only capable of remembering the conditioning which it has been fed since birth. It knows nothing about the Divine plan that you formulated before it came into being. It has no clue regarding your infinite potential; and it certainly has no idea about the incredible mysteries and majesty that lie within you.
So, why do we keep relying on the ego mind to help us get to know ourselves or to understand what our purpose is?
The ego mind is meant to be the servant of our Soul. It is not meant to be our master.
So, learn how to access your true purpose by quieting your ego mind and listening instead to your heart/Soul. Then you will discover who you ARE and why you ARE!
Meditation is the key to this because in meditation the ego mind is quieted and in that Silence one can then eavesdrop on the God/Goddess within. And there and then who you ARE and why you ARE becomes crystal clear.
So, take the time now to simply “be” with your Self--your “most significant other”--and discover the majesty and mystery of who you are.
Quiet your mind and open your heart and you will come to “know Thy Self!”
It is not I;
it does not belong to anybody;
it is just conditioning.
