Expanding Consciousness.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
Hi Deepak, thanks for all. It has been a year since my first spiritual awakening, as you know, it became in an unstoppable and beautiful journey, peeling away the layers of conditioning one day at a time, not even knowing it at first. A strong identification with an important part of my life situation at that time led me to a state of sustained suffering late last year. Depression appeared when that part of my life situation unexpectedly shifted. From that experience, feelings and emotions that I wasn’t even able to imagine before, arose with a sense and perception of self that was deeply profound and beauty divine. Since then my state of consciousness has progressively expanded, even experience knowing and feeling the whole universe in me and others sometimes. But that feeling and identification with my true self does not always stay; I also experience the dense sense of sustained suffering some days, feeling my life lapsing in ups and downs. I want to live in equilibrium, balance with my intention and experience of life, but I still feel that there is always latent this suffering and depression, and it happens. I intend to synchronize me with my nature and be guided by the love within me which is I. How I can reduce this latent suffering which is activated randomly and reduce the drops and continue with synchronicity in my life easily? Namaste.
Response:
Once you enter this stage of your spiritual growth, where the episodes of awakening begin to peel away the layers of the false self, then you know that your spiritual growth is firmly in the hands of Mother Nature. From this point forward there is a tacit agreement that you are committed to self-realization and the emotional and physical ups and downs that come along with the healing and awakening process. You have to hold on to your higher self and go with the ride until self-realization is permanent. After a big awakening, it is natural for the awareness of the true self to come and go, along with challenging intervals where the old self is adjusting to a new role. Nature is intelligently and flawlessly guiding your entire journey. Trust your Self and be patient and loving with your process.
To smoothen out the low periods, it is important to keep the body strong, pure, and healthy with regular exercise, sleep, fresh food, and lots of water. Don’t become too isolated from other people, even if you don’t feel like socializing because you don’t think you can’t relate to others’ experiences. Casual conversation and socializing helps to keep your energy from becoming too constricted and introverted, and that will ease your emotional state. It also helps open you up more, so the emotions flow in and out and don’t get stagnated and inwardly distorted. If feelings get too intense and uncomfortable, you can ease up off your spiritual practice, and do more physical activity. That will calm things down a bit until you feel ready to resume the process.
Love,
Deepak
