“The courage to live the truth.”

“The courage to live the truth.”

“THE COURAGE TO LIVE THE TRUTH.”

“Spiritual awakening,” “maturity,” “healing,” “enlightenment,” “meeting God (the truth),” “oneness,” “comprehension of ultimate love,” “transcending duality,” and so on all ultimately mean the same thing, but this is something that everyone must come to realize by one’s own self through facing one’s own spiritual challenges.

No one can hand that treasure over to you.

In other words, even if you say “this is it” as same as a famous saint or doctrine says “this is it,” it does never mean that you have had a spiritual awakening or met God, and of course, you cannot say that you have acquired something spiritual.

On the contrary, it is simply a deception caused by the mind (ego).

Furthermore, it is necessary to firmly acknowledge the fact that not everyone come to reach the same level of awareness (enlightenment) in the same way, and that only reaching that level does not mean the “right” thing as the mind may believe it in relative duality .

“Right and wrong,” “slow and fast,” “good and bad,” “superior and inferior,” etc. are merely illusions seen by the mind (ego) as a relative duality, and the truth is completely non-dual, far beyond the world of duality known by the mind (ego), and is so pure that everything is completely melted together to the point that it is impossible to separate or compare.

On top of that, all beings are always in our optimal place for our own spiritual challenges and, whether we are aware of it or not, are always having the experiences necessary for spiritual awakening.

Viewing this fact from the “grand plan of God” or from “The Self,” then no matter what our current way of being is, there is always something valuable to learn from it, and at the same time, it can be said that everyone exists as a spiritual helper (in other words, a provider of opportunities to ascend each other to a higher spiritual level) for someone else, as well as for ourselves, always far beyond the intentions, awareness, and judgments of the mind (ego).

In this way, everyone is somewhere in the process of an incredibly grand flow that goes far beyond the judgments that the mind (ego) deems “good,” and at the same time, as the only one consciousness, through each of us, The impersonal Self experiences all kinds of things.

And the truth has no limits, for it has no time or space and so continues eternity infinitely.

Therefore, the more truly spiritually awakened one becomes, the more one continues to learn from all ways of being and practically deepen comprehension of the truth and the manifestation of God.

Enlightenment or healing is about recognizing the various illusions, such as the assumptions and interpretations of one’s own mind (ego), as illusions and accepting them as they are, in other words, letting go of the illusions.

In this way, one will come to be reconciled with one’s past quarrels and sublimated into the awareness of The Self, the absolute reality.

These assumptions or interpretations appear in the definitions, ideas, or concepts that the mind (ego) unconsciously attaches to, such as the love and relationships we expect from God, family, or partners.

In the process of spiritual awakening, getting through the first hurdle of “transcending duality” is actually just the beginning of the next chapter in spiritual awakening.

After that, through meeting people who are still identified with the mind (ego) and body, one can see the “personal self” called the mind (ego) there, but also find The Self (manifestation of God) to an equal extent, or learn from them about the mind (ego) that was not yet aware of, or hear the word of God through them, and the more concrete self-integration (healing), dismantling and sublimation of the mind (ego) will continue as before.

In other words, practical learning continues unchanged.

In particular, after transcending duality, by directly grasping the non-separateness and non-duality of The Self, one has more opportunities to observe both the mind (ego) and The Self from outside, through external phenomenon of others, in addition to what was previously an awareness only from inside.

Through such things, one moves towards the state of nirvana, where one sees The Self (manifestation of God) in the current state of all existence.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

Specifically, for example, even if one is able to verbalize the truth grasped by transcending duality, it may sometimes be misinterpreted to a greater or lesser extent, and there may be people who will challenge or admonish you, or even try to argue with you, about how wrong you are and how right they are when they thin they found mistake in you.

Or, some people may claim to be ardent followers, superimposing the greatness of the emotion they felt and how deeply they were touched by the truth you told, as they believe you as separeted from them.

However, such reactions are only caused by their own “ignorance of God,” that is, they have not yet directly grasp the non-separation and non-duality of absolute reality. Furthermore, through a deep comprehension of the unconscious ego through self-inquiry and self-observation, there is the practice of remaining in innermost stillness without effort, pouring the compassion of unconditional acceptance into them by seeing oneself within them, or even unconditional surrender to the fact that no matter how they appear to the mind, they are nothing but a manifestation of God.

In this way, even if one has transcended duality, there is no change in the fact that only oneself is solely responsible for deepening spiritual awakening and living the truth.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

As for emotions, through transcending duality, the deeper and broader one feels, the ultimate and all-embracing love as transcendental, than the attachment commonly called love, and the more selfless and egoless compassion becomes by unconditional acceptance, and so on.

One simply no longer tunes into the emotional drama created by the mind (ego), but one deeply comprehends the illusions the mind (ego) sees, and one comes to exist on a completely different level from the desires the mind (ego) holds, such as attachment or lust.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

So, do you really want to know the unconditionality of the truth and the depth of compassion?

Do you have enough pure interest and curiosity to shatter all the illusions you have and still move towards the truth spontaneously?

All the answers are in you now.

Everything you become aware of now is the key that will lead you to the next spiritual stage.

There is no need for comparison or judgment.

What is meant to happen will happen, and you will become aware of what you need to be aware of.

All you need is to be in the present with innermost stillness.

Then, grasp through practice what it means to truly love yourself. (OM 🙏)
