You will never truly know your own soul and be totally free from your mental torture until you come to a place where you have the courage to strip yourself of all of the external attachments you have been conditioned to attach yourself to. In order to gain self empowerment, a steady mind, a peaceful heart, and self knowledge you must loose your life. You must loose the life that your ego created while trying to protect itself and keep you from your true self. None of us can ever see Jesus, Buddha Consciousness, Nirvana, Muhammad, God, or our higher self until we experience the crucifixion of worldly, external attachments.
The day you awakened to the fact that your life is not your own and you don’t have to “protect” it, is the day that you loose all fear. The day you come to know that you are only passing through this experience never to return in this incarnation again is the day that you realize how little all of the attachments you have actually mean. The struggle to have the biggest, the most, the pain of wanting to be accepted by others, the striving for social status, and the worst of it all, the pain of loosing attachments because of death or separation, all of it will no longer be when we let go of the idea that these attachments make us happy or make us who we are, because they don’t and the are not forever.

 

YOU ARE A SOUL ON A JOURNEY
You have come here for one reason and that reason is to BECOME. Know that you are not dying you are becoming. You are becoming something that we really can not see just yet. We know we are becoming but we don’t quite know just what; and that is the way it is supposed to be at this moment. We need not worry because deep within, our soul knows exactly what we are becoming. It even gives a glimpse, a knowing as to what it is; it is something beyond our comprehension with this mind we are working with. Why? Because one of the conditions we accepted when we decided to take on a body and expand our soul and BECOME, through this earth experience, is “forgetfulness.” We had to forget most of what and who we really are. And although there are many who are so tuned in and spiritually aware that they have vague recollections of their past journeys, through dreams, deja vu moments, psychic encounters, most are living in a land of forgetfulness.
Why did we have to forget? There are several reasons we had to forget but the one that is universal is that we had to learn the concept called TRUST. What we are becoming, what we will fully be are spiritual beings with the will and ability to achieve and do and master and create great things, but in order to do that we must trust in our own “GOD- NESS”. We must know and trust that we can AND WILL create and sustain….worlds. Here’s a revelation only a few will get; THIS world is not your home. This world is preparing you for a world you will create and sustain…one day.

 

GOING BACK
So why the attachments? Because attachments equals distractions. The ego mind or what the Bible calls” the mind of the flesh” is the mind created by the distractions, and the illusions that surrounds us. The journey of the soul is a journey back to God or the source. Its a journey back to the garden; metaphysically back to Eden.
All that we have been taught to fear, to hate, even to love are nothing more than human ego, human conscious, distractions created out of fear.

 

FOR EXAMPLE:
In true GOD inspired ,romantic relationships you know that to desire to “know” or “love” another is really the desire to connect with God; its the desire to know yourself more fully; its the desire to expand in consciousness. And yet most people’s desire to “get with” another is motivated by fear of being alone; lust for sex; or the idea of being judged and looked upon positively because you have the “hot girl” or ”fine guy,” and or the ability to control another.
In this state of being this kind of attachment causes distractions for both involved and in truth, they will never be able to know their true self; at least not at that time.
The reason we live such lives of attachments is because of one word and that is fear. Fear is the reason for the attachments. The soul starts out, afraid. Its afraid to go through this journey. It would appear that we go through it alone. And so as we journey, we grab, anything, in order to not be alone. But what we soon discover is everything we grab or latch onto will eventually leave, die, or wither away.

 

THERE IS ONLY GOD
And you are it. You are a God in amnesia.
The test is can you find your way back home?
Can you remember?
You must realize the attachments really do not exist. They only exist in your own mind. The only things you will ever need are the things you are; Love, faith, trust, hope, peace and joy. A true revelation of these will root out the need or desire for the false attachments of external things. An awareness of this truth is a giant leap toward your liberation in soul and mind.
