The Big Leap.

Beyond acknowledging the experience of Awareness as the basis of ourselves and perceiving its qualities experientially, the huge shift happens when we stop thinking of ourselves as a person trying to be happy and instead open to the possibility of being universal consciousness experiencing itself and the world we perceive is simply a manifest flow of this consciousness. Here we let go of attaching to the thoughts that personalise existence by identifying ourselves as an object of experience. Thoughts that have only been a culturally transmitted belief that has insisted on its interpretation of what we are and which have profoundly conditioned our minds. Seeing that this belief cannot be backed up scientifically or experientially is the basis for the leap that opens us to living as a flow of impersonal experiences we perceive life to be.

Here, we take a leap in how we perceive this mind, body, and world. The effect of it is a complete dissolution of fear as we now see that everything is part of a single creational flow, nothing is missing, and everything is consistent within itself. There is no other experiential reality outside of this one, and we can be confident that it’s all perfect within itself, including all the pain and pleasure of living as humans in time we realign our activities and experience in daily life in accordance with it. We realise we can make this choice and continue to explore for the rest of our lives.

Though egoic habits may continue, they lose their power and eventually fade out. We mainly stop investing in emotionally charged activity out of fear and a sense of lack created by a false belief to be a separate person we have seen through.  We are left with a natural appreciation for the world arising from the intimacy we feel with it, as we recognise we are this beautiful single flow of creation. We find that the psychological liberation of opening to experience ourselves as this flow only makes the practical aspect of living clearer and more desirable to achieve to the best of our abilities for the joy of it. The upswell of respect, gratitude and awe for the Universe could not be more significant.
