The people I am researching have no more knowledge or ability than me. They just came up with their way of doing things and shared it. I don’t have to listen to their ideas as if they are rules.

When I return to the full power of my physical senses after being in a state of deep spiritual awareness and connection, it is just not a comfortable transition for me. Maybe I need to learn to stay in my body more during the spiritual connection, but at this point in my development, trying to tether myself to my body inhibits that state of flow for me.

The more pleasant our emotions feel, the better aligned we are with our higher self. The more unpleasant our emotions, the more out of alignment we are.

The message to let go is a common one during awakening. What I am learning is that it is a continual process. Our ego’s will continuously work to get us to grasp onto the familiar to try to stay in control.

We’re in the midst of a great war. A war that we cannot win by fighting. A war that calls us to love. We are called to love in the face of our own fear and that of others. For it is fear we are ultimately trying to overcome. Fear that keeps us separated from each other. Fear of our differences, but maybe even more so of what we may hold in common.

When a lot of people hear the term metaphysics, they think of people and objects claiming magical powers. While some subjects that seem to be magical in nature are in the realm of metaphysics, it goes much deeper than that.

I am an advocate of the ego. I think it gets a bad rap and we should learn how to work with it rather than trying to suppress it. That being said, I worry that the people who believe that self-love is a pass to be self-centered are letting their ego fool them
