MISCONCEPTIONS IN THE WAY OF ENLIGHTENMENT
As an Indigo and Lightworker you may feel great being part of a group of souls incarnated on Earth during this time to help transition the planet to 5D, a higher level of consciousness, and into a New Earth reality. I sure did… It brought a great sense of purpose and I felt selected with a special mission. This was only a partial development though and I soon lept beyond. I am sharing this series of blogs for more to take the step beyond these new age concepts and recognise the natural state beyond mind’s ideas.
There is no doubt that group meditations and combined prayers for love and peace have a positive effect on the morphogenetic field of the planet. Though you can make an even greater impact by seeing how this saviour complex is but a half truth.
“The only hope for humankind is in the transformation of the individual.”
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Awaken the world implies that appearance of the world is true, but we know it to be a projection. The world is an illusion and any external attempt to change it is futile. All the horrors of the world exist due to people taking themselves to be separate entities. Illusion of separation causes suffering, so to save the world would take ending your own illusion of separation, by directly immersing in your nondual essential state of beingness.
The world which must be realised as maya, illusion, does not need to change. Only our perception of it needs to shift and that is done by individual Self-realisation. Then the world will shift accordingly.
”Realize that your world is only a reflection of yourself and stop finding fault with the reflection. Attend to yourself, set yourself right; mentally and emotionally. The physical self will follow automatically.”
Nisargadatta Maharaj
To put effort in awakening or saving the world, through lightwork or unified meditations may be a beautiful thing to do, but to have this personal mission is only putting emphasis on the illusory “doer” and identities of the egoself.
Ascension accelerates when you let go being someone. It is not achieved by feeding a spiritual ego a new identity with an admirable mission. The only mission and purpose is to realise the Self and point others towards it.
The true authentic change is achieved by simply Being, immersed in and as Awareness, realised pure Presence, compared to performing the missions of a Lightworker, Lightwarrior or Grid keeper. Pure simple Being is wordless, identity-less presence and unconditional love.
“Only the people who have gone beyond the world can change the world. It never happened otherwise. The few whose impact was long lasting were all knowers of reality. Reach their level and then only talk of helping the world.”
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
From the Self-realised state grace flows strong and steady through presence as well as actions benefiting humanity uncoloured by karmic influence or egoic satisfaction of self-gratifying missions. No matter how noble and humanitarian, all action that arises from being a separate person is from the ego for the ego.
The difference within is clear, as there is no sense of doership, no urge, need or excitement to apply another title, image or identity, as life happens harmoniously as one with the unified field of Awareness. That is the state we must all rise to.
“Wanting to reform the world without discovering one’s true self is like trying to cover the world with leather to avoid the pain of walking on stones and thorns. It is much simpler to wear shoes.”
Ramana Maharshi
