beyond the personal self
Many of us have been on the journey of self-discovery, awakening and personal growth for a while now. We have gained many insights into the nature of being and the psychology of the mind. The exploration and discovery of how we work as an individual, as a personality, and as a human being living in the world, continues to enrich our lives.
It has been necessary up until now in our journey to focus on ourselves as individuals. We have been rightly fascinated with the story of me, the development of our ego and the sense of ourselves as separate individuals with a history. This is an important part of growing and maturing. At a certain point, however, the focus that we put on the personal self becomes excessive and limits potential growth.
As the focus of attention turns away from the self and onto a larger or ultimate whole we are able to experience liberation; it feels like dropping into the flow of life, dissolving the personal self, being completely available to life. The more expanded the level of awareness of the group, the more accesible that level of awareness is to each individual in the group.
We have access to the stillness of pure being. We can move fluidly through the landscape of our psyche. We can communicate with honesty and integrity. We have enthusiasm for the evolution of consciousness. Imagine what we can create if we come together for the sake of the grandest vision we can possibly imagine! |
