“Become aware of the longing of the essence and humbly follow it.”

“BECOME AWARE OF THE LONGING OF THE ESSENCE AND HUMBLY FOLLOW IT.”

The mind (ego) is always restless in thinking of such as what is right and what is wrong.

It is always on the lookout for how can be better, and it has a lot of correct spiritual knowledge as well.

It tells itself “How they should be,” or that “XX should not be done,” and while it takes its inconvenience for granted, it even tries to give shape to the illusions of the mind (ego) by forcing to follow the norm (so-called common sense) on others as well.

Nevertheless, the mind (ego) never considers these things to be about it, but rather thinks that it is mature and even spiritually awakened more than others as a person.

This kind of foolishness always belongs to others, and at the same time, it, blindly from everyday efforts, believes that it can see things better than anyone else.

In this way, the mind (ego) remains to live in its ignorance, trapped in its own unconsciousness.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

This is our unconscious state (more than about 90% of consciousness when we are physically awake) of personal self before we spiritually awaken (before the actual transcendence of duality, before the explosive expansion of the realm of awareness), and is the general state when we identify the mind (ego) with the self.

At this time, we are completely letting the mind (ego) control our lives without realizing it, and often it is passionate about being outstanding others, becoming better person.

We are in a state of excessive expectation and dependence on the willpower, effort, imagination, etc. of the mind (ego) to make the change it thinks need.

In other words, it believes that it has to do anything by itself individually, and we are overconfident in the power of the mind (ego) as if that’s the only option.

And this is, on the flip side, what we have no faith in God, the unknown, and thereby it also makes us difficult to surrender the mind (ego).

Without even realizing how small that mind (ego) is.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

When we feel like criticizing someone’s words and actions, or when we want to correct something, it is a sign that the mind (ego) is taking the lead in our “now” and acting as if it owns it.

It is a moment when the essence is not presence in the “now.”

This is precisely a sign that the mind (ego) is unable to see the “omnipresent divinity” that lies behind every phenomena (in other words, the essence is still asleep), and we need to realize that there is a spiritual assignment there (i.e., an opportunity to spiritually awaken as the essence).

If we can realize this, we will be able to go into innermost stillness and use the phenomenon as a foothold to deepen self-observation and self-inquiry together with the unknown in order to clarify, “What is the divinity, the essence that I cannot see right now?”, or “What fact is it that the mind (ego) does not want to accept and is resisting?”

Even so, the unknown will never tell us verbally that “the answer is this.”

However, if, as a result of such inner change in awareness, we truly try to observe the facts as they are, we will naturally but unintentionally surrender the mind to the unknown by its curiosity and longing, and we will be definitely led to the answer we need at that time, and we will know it clearly beyond doubt.

Even if we have no knowledge at all.

Even if we don’t ask for help from anyone.

Trust in the unknown to that extent.

Believe in the elusive unknown as many times as we can.

The more we believe in the unknown and act in this way, the clearer its guidance will become.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

This is what the essence is seeking from far deep the manifest mind (ego) (which is less than about 10% of consciousness even when we are physically awake).

And that is the spiritual path that the essence longs to walk through us, the path to God.

Cherish this “miracle = now” given to us by the unknown with all our heart.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

Finally.

“The Unknown” is God, Consciousness itself, the true formless form of the impersonal essence.

And it is the Absolute Reality that we directly realize is itself the moment we actually transcend duality. (OM 🙏)
