Being True to Your Higher Self
Finding the true being within is a journey inwards...
July 8, 2020
We have a dream inside ourselves, a gift to us at birth,
to guide us and protect us on our journey on this earth.
We all have something special, each one of us unique,
you have to find the courage to find the peace you seek.
So dream your dream and live your dream, don't be afraid to try,
just take your soul by the hand and let your spirit fly.
- Maureen Weiner
Finding the True Self
They say that when we come into this world we are like a "blank" slate. Only two supposed fears that babies have: the fear of falling and the fear of loud noises. By the time we're five, even though we still don't possess the faculty of logical reasoning, we do possess a world of beliefs - about ourselves, our families and the world around us. Fears? Yep. They say until we're seven, all that we experience gets "recorded", the good, the bad and the ugly. It all goes straight into the subconscious, without being able to logically evaluate, refute or reason with it.
So, we develop a sense of self of ourselves and the world around us, and, most of it is "not ours". We are brought up with beliefs that are imposed upon us, like religion, family beliefs, status, cultural beliefs, just to name a few. But they are not the real "you" that came to reach your highest potential. For the real you cannot be seen, and is above the world of matter.
We Are All Unique Individuals
Everyone has special talents and gifts whether recognized or not, for everyone has a unique place in this life that only they can fill. Now sometimes these gifts are latent, coming into expression only as this world calls them out of us by circumstance or seeming chance. But, I don't believe there is any limit on the human potential. The only limit is "belief".
Sometimes though, we live life based on others beliefs and expectations, and we don't follow our heart (inner guidance) when it comes to the matters of life.
I believe our "higher self" has a purpose, and when we head towards that direction, we inwardly and outwardly know it.
But if we follow someone else's expectation of who and what we should be, we inwardly and outwardly know that also. We came here to reach our highest-potential.
The biggest factor in the world is BELIEF and the power of the subconscious mind.
