Graduating From Our Beliefs, Part IV
This is part IV of a four part blog.
I have come to realize that as I have integrated and released many belief systems that I have come to feel so much freer and so much more empowered and authentic than I ever imagined. I have come in this process to really understand what it means to “be true to myself.” And learned that, “if I follow any one other than myself, I surely will get lost!”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The truth is that everything that is represented as what God said—every word of it—has been brought to us by men/women. Now maybe they were good men/women, well-intentioned people, but they were just human beings like you and I are who were filled with strengths and wisdom, but also with the contradictions and foibles that you and I have. They just made huge claims and they spread.
Until you can stand up to the authority of those who claim they have “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth,” and instead live according to the God/Goddess truth within your own heart, you’re not following your Self. You are following someone else. Period! And that will get you nowhere! Actually, it can only get you eternally and infernally lost!
You are the creator and the authority of the meaning and the purpose of your life. No one else is or can ever be! Claim it!
