Reuniting Humanity With Their Divinity...It's Time
A personal reflection with a nice thought i think :) <3
Lately i went through something that we could describe as an opening to a new understanding. We could also call it connfusion, or struggle :)
I really fell in love with humanity, and being human as i am awakening, more and more accepting what is going on inside of me and us, feeling compassion for all the pain of the couragous human beings.
To describe the struggle i now went through is probably not very serving for all who read this, and i did find a new stretching of my perception of life if you so want, and the either or merged into one more abstract unified way of looking at the flow of life, its pressure, movement, creation and the topic of will and choice.
The magic that happened was yet another, as included into the above mentioned issue, was thinking about enlightenment, and believe it or not some a bit hidden right or wrong thinking, fear of wrong if you so want.
The beauty, the magic was the following thought, that seems like an answer to all struggle to me.
Do I have the courage to be myself ?
I want to present this question to everyone.
Do I have the courage to (just) BE who i am ?
The mental body with all its conecepts is part of my bodysystem, part of my experience.
There are teachers that put it beautifully and guide you to an undersanding, and an experience of you being awareness, yet this little awakening is not resolving all struggle, as there remains questioning, at least in my case.
What about life ? desires or wishes ?
In which way am I creative ?
Well now i did go into my issue a slight bit :) yet from a nice perspective.
Being myself, means that. I do not have to understand or experience myself in the complete realisation that I am awareness itself, yet i can.
I do not have to surrender to god, yet i can.
Well there is no denial at all, when i see that i am myself.
No denial of relationship, humor, communication, dreaming, silence, and noise, dance and stillness.
There is no denial of anything, when i say yes to being myself.
It is in a way complete allowance, although there is no thought of being myself to .... there is no other purpose in this
Something might happen with your thoughts and there might be an unlearning, as you realise what the mind does, yet as you still are yourself, feeling one with your thoughts as much as you do in that moment.
Mooji once told a story (i think from papaji) about being and plans. I do not want to tell the story here, because it was not that which touched me. It was the sentence that came afterwards.
When will you take an instant, to just be you ?
I want to suggest, think about what you want, explore as you wish, stretch your understanding or your sense of reality as you want, but also ask yourself this question ?
What about just being you ?
Do you have the courage to just be you ?
Apart from that, the mystery that is you, and the mystery that is life - are they not worth to be experienced - at least for a moment, without limiting framework of concept, belief, or tagging of the mind.
Without understanding, simply being with life, and yourself for a moment ?
No matter what that means in this moment.
I do not mean to stop thinking, or breathing, or moving if you wish. I mean to let everything be as it is for a moment, being just you, as you are.
now, even when you think about another time.
Bless you
:)

Thank you tej :)
I did not look through the site, but i know of sri ramana maharashs self inquiry, and the beautiful question of who am i.
I like it and do ask myself from time to time.
Yet i want to really show that there is nothing that needs to be achieved.
I want to show that there is no need for selfrealisation, without judging this way, as i said i ask myself from time to time, but only when it is the question that is there for me to ask.
Life is precious as it is. Why should we have forgotten?
Awakening is not a duty, it is a graceful journey, it is life.
But thank you dearly,
for this link shows your intention to show a beautiful way to be yourself without struggle as well <3

Dear Daniel,
I highly appreciate your kind words. I also agree to your thought flow. Our ancients said..when in doubt, Question?..which you are doing and which is the natural order..you have written your own answer in your questions. Like you said, awakening and self realization are not duties..they are part of your life..the questions you have and are pondering..have been asked by many a seer and a sage..from a layman to an intellect...we do not need to knock doors to search for all these..when you have then already inside you...to just be you..you need to first know the "I". Once you know it..everything is you and you are everything..and that is the beauty of it....22-25 years back..I questioned myself the same way you have questioned...and I had my answers...You are a blessed soul.and the light will always be you..
Namaste.

Thank you tej once more :)
yet i do not agree with your statement, to be just you you need to first know the "i".
You do not have to know the i, you do not have to realise self, to be enlightened, or to ask yourself who am i.
The question of do i have the courage to be myself, allowed me to be without being aware of my deepness, or me being awareness.
i do not have to know who or what I is. There is no need to or have to at all.
Yet i say that now as i can see the beauty of life, meaning i see that life is life.
whatever i say :)
thank you tej, and blessings for your life :)
