Are you getting lost in your ego again, Alchemist? Like a catchy tune playing on repeat, it can be hard to step out of the life patterns that influence our every move. To experience freedom, we must make deep changes, let go of old limiting beliefs, and embrace new insights about the universe and our place within it.
Along this journey, our wisdom grows, acting like a lantern illuminating our path. But with our true identity slipping past our understanding, we can easily fall into the traps of ego.
As we become more aware of the world around us and understand life's ups and downs, we often forget to see ourselves within this bigger picture.
Remember, Alchemist, the universe is like a mirror, reflecting your thoughts and feelings back to you. If you approach life with fear or negativity, which are machinations of the ego, you'll see that reflected in your experiences. On the other hand, if you embrace life with optimism and joy, you'll find the world responds with positivity.
It can be hard to recognize this if you're stuck thinking you are simply your body or your mind. But the reality is, you are the silent observer interacting with the universe. Your true self is not trapped within this temporary plane of existence. It is boundless and infinite.
Meditation is a powerful tool to uncover your infinite self. It helps awaken a more profound understanding of our role in the universe, allowing us to step away from our egos and experience true happiness. When you realize in your heart that you're more than just your physical body or mind, you begin to see this world as a blank canvas to paint the life you want to live.
Alchemist, on this journey of self-discovery, you must burn up the karma that keeps you spiraling down into samsara. The ego is only a tool for survival. Put down the need to react to all the stimuli around you and center yourself within a blissful vibration.
