Auto-SummaryThis thought-provoking post delves into the search for one's true self and the concept of ego. The author argues that the "ego" is not a singular, separate entity but rather a collection of smaller aspects within ourselves. They emphasize the importance of observing and connecting with the "observer" – the true self that transcends the ego and shadow self. The post suggests that psychedelics can help individuals access deeper parts of themselves, but ultimately, the key lies in recognizing and integrating the shadow self to achieve higher awareness. The author compares the process to shedding layers of self-created dimensions and encourages readers to strive for full consciousness, free from the limitations of the mind and ego. They conclude by emphasizing the importance of positivity and harmony in achieving a state of total awareness.
Warning, these are just words, a rembrance of thoughts from another lost soul in the process of finding his own self.
Most of it boils down to the simple age old question 'who AM I?'
The person you feel you are has many many facets to itself, different parts that define your Self as yourself. Many people talk about ego, but what is ego? Do you know your ego? I have seen glimpses of it, but its a sneaky little bastard, it portrays itself in the full light letting you think that now you see it, but in the meanwhile its still in the back influencing and sometimes even controlling you without you even being aware of it because its not just in the shadows, its the shadow itself! When you start observing youself you learn a great deal about yourself and the different parts of yourself, yet who is the observer? This observer is who is truly you, it is the you you must become fully aware of in the moment, now and in every moment, because there is no other moment but now. The source who stands above all the smaller selves and the source which is able to overcome the ego and get in touch with your shadow self. See, the thing is that we are not able to destroy our shadow selves, nor should we even want or try to, the shadow is there for a reason, its there so we can realise it and get in touch with it and through doing this ground ourselves fully so we are able to let go fully and soar away into dimensions of higher awareness, should you so want to describe it. Only when you are fully aware of a thing are you able to master it. At the moment you probably dont even see it, and everytime you shine your light upon it, it disappears, because its the shadow. Its this, the small ego, not the large and obvious ego, which is the true part of ourselves which we must realise and transform through realisation. And if your shadow self is strong and large it only means that you have a very bright light inside also, because only a strong light can create a large shadow. Realise Catalyse and Transform to come to the attainment of a being of light, fully aware and in the moment.
So, sometimes, certain psychedelics can put you in dimensions where you are immersed fully into some part of yourself, shrinking your reality to this small box of being which you then only seem to be. Nothing more, nothing else outside of yourself, but yourself. And it is right there in those places where you must realise your true self, realise that the dimension you are immersed in at that moment is still only that, a subjective dimension, selfcreated with selfinflicted boundaries because it was created within one small facet of your already seperated self. Its like landing on a planet, going into a town, walking into a building, finding a small room within and then locking yourself into the smallest closet and then wonder why its so small and dark in your little universe. Still beyond all this, there is a certain something which is perceiving all of this, and it is connected to but not contained within the part of yourself you are identified with at that moment. It is this source, this center of your selfs own Self which you must connect with fully and identify with totally, all the time. And the ironic part is that this Self is not like any smaller facet or part yourself, it is not restrained by your restricted notions of seperated being or an existance as something that stands seperate from that which surround it, because it is in essence Being in itself!
Look at it like a circle, all around the circle are the different parts of yourself and the different dimensions they create, and at the centre lies your true self, the observer which can see all the subjective selfcreated dimensions. And its only from this position that one can transcend the circle of ones own limited dimensions to enter a state of being where one feels connected all the time, in the right moment and place in time and space, in full harmony with existance and your part within its story as a whole.
So whenever you get stuck within a smaller subjective dimension realise it for what it is, just that, a small selfcreated dimension which seems real only because you identify fully with that small part of yourself which created it. If you see it like that you understand that we really create our own reality, in more ways than one.
Becoming conscious was just human kinds first step, from there we must become fully aware and transcend all the smaller dimensions we create with our smaller selves, which are ego dominated because we cannot see our own shadowself with the light of our minds, to attain full consciousness freed from the seperated self so we can rise to the full dimension of total awareness of being, unbound and unrestricted by the mind and its programming, just because we have freed ourselves from full identification with our illusionary preprogrammed smaller selves to awaken into the full richness of existance.
There is only positivety if you choose to go with the harmony.
Peace and good Vibes!
