“DEEPENING SPIRITUAL AWAKENING AND DETACHMENT FROM MIND.”
As we go through the process of facing a number of difficulties that include spiritual assignment, we eventually begin to ask profound questions to the depths of ourselves.
This is the moment when the awareness turns inward, we leave from the awareness that we are merely victims or perpetrators, also away from the way of being that have previously sought external causes, and ask questions such as, “Why do similar problems occur to me?”
The eyes that had been focused on the dark and sad world or, conversely, on the only good things, begin to turn inward toward oneself.
The question that arises is, “Why do I suffer from the same relationships?,” “What is the reason why I am always in the same relationships, even if they are comfortable?,” “What is true love?,” “I’ve always thought that A is ultimately B, but is that really true?,” and so on.
In this way, we begin to ask questions ourselves that go much deeper, cutting into our own vaguely held assumptions and beliefs by ourselves, which we had never questioned before.
This is the moment when we begin to confront our own (illusory) reality.
We finally find innermost stillness, where we begin pure self-observation and self-inquiry, without any judgment or mind-interpretation.
This self-observation is totally different from the self-monitoring that we used to do in order to be a good person by discipline ourselves with rational judgments.
As we find the innermost stillness, and as our spiritual awakening deepens through contact with the universal wisdom, our words and actions naturally become more in alignment with essence, and our faith in the guiding unknown grows.
Furthermore, we come to comprehend that the universal wisdom we gain from the innermost stillness is always what we need most, best, and most effective for our own deepening spiritual awakening.
Therefore, this will naturally lead to no longer seeking outside entities to provide wisdom. This is the moment of total surrender to being guided by the unknown, consciousness itself and surrender the fear of the mind.
Furthermore, each and every distraction naturally will become unnecessary.
In this way, as we humbly continue to deepen our self-observation and self-inquiry, egolessly seeking only the truth, we will eventually reach a moment of complete transcendence of the world of duality.
This transcendence, however, is not something that we try to transcend or expect to transcend.
For transcendence to actually occur, it is essential to always be in the most humble state of egolessness.
And with this transcendence comes a paradigm shift on a spiritual level within us.
A world completely different from the one we had previously perceived appears before our eyes. In other words, only then do we fully become one with a nondual consciousness far beyond the realm of the individual and truly comprehend that duality (good or evil, right or wrong, etc.) is only an illusion.
We may even feel as if a great mystery has been solved.
With this paradigm shift, our identification with the ego is greatly broken, and we become then much less upset about our emotions, thoughts, and various other inner movements.
But we are still not completely detached from the ego. There is still some spiritual assignment that we have set up for ourselves.
Therefore, there will still be times when we are at the mercy of unconscious ego reactions, and while these will gradually disappear, we may still find slight reactions within.
However, by a deep comprehension that the seek for truth (liberation) never ends with the transcendence of duality alone, we will simply continue to do what we had done naturally to deepen our spiritual awakening, as naturally and even more humbly as ever since then.
In this way, self-observation, for instance, would become more and more ongoing and simultaneous with outer speech and action.
In this ongoing self-observation, non-sublimated emotions, which at first had to be fully felt if they were discovered, would eventually be released (sublimated) by simply acknowledging and accepting the facts, and thereby as detachment from the ego progresses, we will no longer identify with emotions and thoughts.
In this way, self-observation becomes more ongoing and is done within a constant state of deep meditation (egolessness).
In this way, the reality we can perceive will certainly expand, our comprehension of ego and essence will deepen, and the more we realize thyself, the more we will be liberated from ego, the more we will actually feel Oneness, and the more we will actually live the Truth as it is and at the same time deepen our comprehension of it.
Thus, the more we realize that there is no beginning and no end, the more we will come to live only in the “now”moment.

During this process, there will be many times when we fall into the trap of the ego. However, it isn’t good not to fall into ego traps. Because there are spiritual assignment to be cleared through awareness of being falling into ego traps, to liberate oneself from one’s own assumptions and beliefs, which are set by each of us.
In other words, we fall into those ego traps because there is spiritual assignment there for each of us.
So there is no need to try to eliminate such a precious opportunity. Rather, we should learn the most profound lessons from ourselves fallen into ego-trap.
In other words, when we become aware of ourselves fallen into the ego-trap through constant self-observation, we simply need to clarify the source of it through self-inquiry, and acknowledge and release the emotions, assumptions, or beliefs, as facts that are entangled in it.
This is the “best” way to live with spiritual awakening at the awareness level, which in turn leads to detach from the mind.
࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓
Finally, the degree to which we come to grasp the truth (the degree to which we deepen our spiritual awakening) is always left to each of us, but the differences that arise here are not really important.
We are only sharing our various experiences as only one consciousness itself.
Even though we are sharing the experience, but the consciousness in the non duality is the only impersonal one, there is no individual existence other than in the illusion of the mind, and the duality of relative such as “superiority and inferiority” is also only an illusion. (OM 🙏)
