How to Reconcile Your Human Life With Your Spirit

English: Pictured here is a long exposure phot...

By Maya Hanley

I have spent a lot of my life wishing I were not on earth. I remember sitting on my window sill in the house I grew up in the mountains of Co. Wicklow, Ireland, and staring at the night sky (no light pollution there!) and wishing I were in the sky with the stars.

Later on I wanted to be an astronaut so I could travel the galaxies. I always wanted to be ‘out there’ where I somehow knew there was no pain and suffering. I knew I belonged in a place where there was no restriction on my movement or thought (or being)

Since I was stuck here, I had to get on with it. Some of the experiences I had were very difficult and painful and I forgot for a long time about my longing to be elsewhere. I notice now, looking back, that the more I forgot about my sense of belonging elsewhere, the harder my life on earth got.

As I embraced the spiritual again and as I learn more and more, I have realized one big thing.

THE REAL YOU IS THE BEING THAT EXISTS WHETHER YOU’RE IN A BODY OR NOT!

This came home strongly to me recently when I did a reading for someone. His grandfather was visiting him in his dreams, trying to tell him something. My client only remembered his grandfather as someone who wasn’t that nice in his lifetime, who had been cruel to his wife and a drinker. I explained to him that the being who was trying to contact him now was the pure being of his grandfather, without all the faults he had in this life. Once my client knew that, he understood that the message he was supposed to get from his grandfather was positive and clear.

It made me think about how we get so exercised with ourselves and our failings, and those of others. If we were able to see and understand that every human being is, in essence, that pure being of light and music, we would be more able to forgive and release our anger and resentment. We would treat ourselves better and honour our bodies and minds as the great parts of god and the universe that they are.

It has given me a sense of peace, understanding this and I am grateful, yet again, for the learning I receive when I do readings for people.

Have you experienced anything that has given you a greater understanding of who you are?

How to Come Home to Your Self

By Jafree Ozwald

“Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it. God has created you; you cannot be improved.” ~ Osho

Deep inside each of us is a place we can call our true “home”. It’s a resting ground, where the world has no power to sway you in any direction. You are rooted and relaxed in a sweet sacred connection with the Divine. When you deeply relax into your body, letting go of all the cares and worries of this world, you discover this awesome experience of coming home to your Self. You are no longer split, unable to make decisions, living in fear, or worried about anything anymore. There is a feeling and understanding that you are connecting with the God Source, each and every moment of your day.

When you let go of all your efforting to change yourself, and surrender deeply to what you might call the “light inside your heart”, you soon discover a feeling of Oneness with everything. You stop fighting reality and begin merging with it. All your inner conflicts become resolved, which means there is no outer conflict anymore. It’s good to know that the inner turmoil inside you is just the ego believing you are not 100% perfect just the way you are. It only sees what is wrong, what needs to be improved, and is relentless about its path of being right. It thinks that everything needs to change in order so that you can be happy.

The greater truth is that happiness is available no matter what your outer world looks like. It is a choice to come home to yourself. There is a Divine Intelligence behind everything and when you relax and come home to it, a state of perpetual joy finds you. This intelligence knows exactly what challenges you need in this lifetime so that you go beyond the perpetually unhappy ego. The God Source is doing everything to push you to dive deeper within yourself so that you transcend this ego and discover the infinite aspect of your being. Whatever physical, emotional, or mental problems that you’re facing, they are all springboards to enlightenment. Each one contains the right amount of fuel to propel you into the core of your being, where you discover the most sacred source of existence.

This warm cozy nest I call your “inner home” is found inside your heart. This sacred place can only be found through total surrender to existence. When the ego lets go, there is no room for suffering and the divine is instantly experienced. As long as you are following your thoughts, believing them to be real, you cannot find Reality. While the mind/ego is running the show, the door to the divine remains closed. There is always a crack open, and you can find it when you put 100% of your energy into trust. When you know the Universe never makes mistakes, and that everything is exactly as it should be, your body relaxes and this sacred home within you is found. I believe there is an old saying that says, “home is where the heart is”. I think we could rephrase it by saying, “the heart is where the home is”.

Just for this week, I invite you to do a little experiment. Whenever you’re not busy, whether you’re waiting in line at the store, or perhaps in stuck in traffic, let your attention rest on your heart center. Say to yourself, “This heart is my home” and relax into it. Don’t try to relax, just let go of everything in your head and let yourself be taken in by the heart. It is welcoming you with open arms, ready to receive all of you. Even those parts you don’t approve of about yourself, these are also welcome. Simply spend as much time as you can each day relaxing deeper and deeper into your heart. Don’t make it a project or a big “have to” out of it, just do it whenever you can remember to. The secret here is being open to a new experience of yourself, that is gentle, loving and filled with peace in the most intimate ways.

When the heart is fully relaxed, the lights turn on in this divine home within your being. There is no greater refuge to be found. If you wanted to find heaven on Earth, this would be it. By living from this space, there is nothing you cannot accomplish or manifest. There is no task too big for you to handle. Yet, the feeling of peace within you is soooo amazing that most of your ego’s yearnings simply fade away. You discover a source of unfathomable bliss within you that cannot be taken away by any situation or circumstances. You end up falling in love with your Self, this world and everybody in it. You feel like you are at home wherever you are.
