To free yourself from being trapped in the false egoic-self, you just have to keep following a genuine spiritual path until all your egoic beliefs disappear and your consciousness is totally free. On the one hand, we are all searching for Nirvana – a state of perfect oneness and perfect, dynamic peace – but on the other, we are all terrified of our own annihilation. We are really scared that if we open up completely to All That Is, we will cease to exist. We all have a very deep fear of not existing, or of having absolutely nothing solid to hang onto.
So we are all searching for enlightenment, whilst being terrified of the groundlessness of the true enlightened state. Of course, the other fear we have is that we might dedicate our lives to finding enlightenment and never find it!
The intellectual mind cannot grasp hold of the deathless state, or the everlasting changeless source of all life. But in truth, we are all an integral part of everlasting, unchanging Life Itself.
Some of you have already had glimpses of the absolute truth or the enlightened state of consciousness, but then the truth disappears from your awareness, and you are back being trapped in your tiny little ‘me’ world once again.
The personality-self cannot transcend duality. The calibration of your ‘me’ self cannot go above 499. So to know the truth, or to find Nirvana, you need to keep rising above the thinking level of your mind and tuning into the desire of your heart, which reflects your soul’s burning desire to return home to the truth or perfect love.
Most of you are here because you have responded to the ceaseless calling of your soul. Before you can go back to the truth, you first have to be intellectually well trained. But then you have to rise above the intellect to connect to the truth directly. This truth is connected to Love’s Presence, but before you can experience love’s eternal presence, your calibration has to rise above 500.
First, you need to cultivate real willpower that lies beyond the thinking mind. You need to learn to direct your own mind, and to do this, you will need to keep cultivating supreme awareness and inner strength day in and day out for a very long time.
It takes real willpower to be able to put into practice core spiritual principles such as, ‘Love thy neighbour as thyself,’ and ‘Do unto others as you would be done by.’
Jesus tells us to love others as ourselves, but we have to really know ourselves first. We have to know all there is to know about our egoic-self, and we also have to come to know our soul, because true love is always soul to soul love.
To speed up your spiritual journey, you will also need to keep cultivating radiant or abundant chi which can then act as fuel to lift your consciousness higher and higher. First you learn to hold ‘The Golden Sun’ and then you learn to bathe your whole being in love energy. Eventually, you have to be able to illuminate your whole being with a higher light. Without connecting to this higher light and universal love, you will never know the absolute truth about life.
