What is the Journey we are all on?

Our Journey

We are born as Pure Awareness within.
We are not aware the journey, is to return to that.
We are driven to survive and have instincts to help us.
We are curious.
We are learning.

We are learning how to move, to stand, to walk, to eat, to drink, to run, to talk, to think.
We are operating in a hypnotic state, our brain’s waves are theta.
We are being taught, ‘programmed’ with knowledge, beliefs and skills.
We are experiencing emotions.
We are learning from our families’ and parents’ patterns and scripts.

We are becoming who they, consciously or not, are programming us to be.
We are driven by the need to survive.
We are fearful of abandonment the most.
We are learning patterns and scripts that become our life’s ‘drivers.’
We are learning and becoming more certain.

We are learning how to socialise with others.
We are learning what our culture is subliminally teaching.
We are evolving, our brain waves changing.
We are becoming more conscious.
We are becoming more and more certain of our ways of thinking.

We are living now as the illusory persona, the ego; we were taught to be.
We are not aware yet, of who we really are.
We are running our lives 95% in automatic as who we’ve learned to be.
We are now becoming vaguely aware this is not who we really are.
We are beginning to Wake Up, and know we need to change.

We are now searching for that change
We are searching Out There, where we were ‘programmed’ to search.
We are thinking the pathway to our growth, lies with others and Out There.
We are unaware that pathway lies within us.
We are unaware the pathway of our growth is to that Pure Awareness we were born with, within us. The Oneness.
We are unaware until we fully Wake Up.

 

 

 

What is the Journey of Life? A Conversation

 

 

“Surely the journey is about discovering who I am? Who I am becoming, yes that’s it, who am I becoming?”

“Who you are becoming? Perhaps it is much more about discovering who you are not. Unlearning what you have learned, unlearning the patterns that actually do not reflect who you TRULY are, in fact UNBECOMING and in doing that, who you truly are will emerge, from under all that you learned which is NOT you.”

 

You are the SCULPTOR.

How do you know you are dreaming?

At night, when you are asleep, how do you know you are dreaming?

Unless, you have learned to dream lucidly, you don’t know you are dreaming, until you wake up!

Why am I asking this question?

Most of the thought patterns you follow during each day are automatic, they play out just like a dream, you are in them, following them,  but not aware of what they are (that’s how the brain works, it stores patterns to ‘help’ you, by not having to pay conscious attention to every single little thing, that it is faced with, moment to moment). Trouble is, some of the patterns you learned earlier in your journey are not always helpful, in this situation right here, right now, (some are of course)  and that’s why you need to wake up sometimes, to what  your thought patterns are and where they are ‘taking you’.

Ask what are my thoughts about this?

What is my thinking here?

You may think you are fully awake, you’re not, you’re following thought patterns.

You need to observe those thoughts, be aware of them

You need to really wake up, so that, as you become more aware of your thinking in any given context, you choose to change that thinking to something that is more resourceful, something more helpful. You respond to the situation, see The Journey.

How many times today did you react to something happening, to someone saying something?

How many times today did you respond to something happening, to someone saying something?

I will discuss Responding vs Reacting  in a future Post in the BLOG
