Reframing Success and Failure What constitutes success and failure? Different people have different interpretations of what these things signify to them. Some may argue that happiness equals success. Some may argue that it is having enough money, performing well in their endeavors, or expressing themselves creatively. But consider this: we live in a cosmos that is continually changing; change is the only constant. In that situation, human life is constantly evolving. No state can be considered fixed in time and space. Even feelings of contentment, peace, and so on are transient. Yesterday's winner could lose today. Today's loser could become tomorrow's winner. What then, we can adopt a different measuring scale, which substantially simplifies the path and provides us with a broader and more evolved perspective. At this point, I would define success as the ability to move with this constant change of the universe. This is well depicted in a recent film I saw. In the film Chandu Champion, the protagonist, a champion boxer, loses his ability to walk due to the war and is forced to give up his sport. However, his coach persuades him that the actual championship is overcoming life's challenges and quieting the inner critic who tells him he has failed. As a result, he pursues a new sport and wins a gold medal at the Paralympics. Settling into the Void of Presence In a continually changing universe, there appears to be one constant: the observer phenomenon, which simply observes the change. Some refer to it as the presence, singularity, or source. When the identity, which is a collection of emotional and mental programs, vanishes, we just dissolve into this presence and become it. This realization brings a great sense of serenity. It's like returning home to who we truly are! After generations of quests, we have returned to where we began. Rekindling the flame If we can look for the truth within distorted, negative behaviors and thoughts, the negative behaviors will fade with time and the truth will grow. It's a basic mechanism - what you fuel grows! Several approaches may advise us to either stop the negative behavior or focus on the positive. But this can be likened to throwing the baby with the bath water and  It would never truly go away because the negative behavior sprang from an underlying truth. Let us take sexual intimacy as an example. Sexual intimacy is a powerful, pleasurable, and highly spiritual experience that we can engage in, yet it can easily descend into lust, for example. So, in this scenario, it is not useful to criticize the behavior but rather to bring light into it and align it by looking for the aligned expression. Let's take another example. The desire to succeed and become better. In our world of material success, achievement, and competitiveness, this may easily turn into a desire to outperform others, comparison, jealousy, and so on. So, is there no benefit in improving or achieving? Certainly, there is! Learning from nature - improving naturally Look at nature: is it not evolving to get 'better'? Nature does this without animosity or conflict. What can we learn from that? Of course, we are nature. Working on computers and living inside four walls does not separate us from nature. This means that, without effort, we can become a better version of ourselves in every instant and express ourselves more accurately in the world. When we use this approach, the struggle disappears and is replaced by an unrestrained flow. We are neither detached from reality as a result of spiritual discipline, nor are we lost in materiality as a means of compensating for an emotional gap or a lack of self-love; rather, our actions and expressions are motivated by love. The spiritual path as an infinite game of life What if there is no particular destination to reach, but life is an endless game of growth, exploration, and expression? Would you not be able to take small steps every day? What if we accept the reality that all of our creations will disintegrate at some point? It must to since it is the natural order of life - death and rebirth. What then is the most important to you? For me,  It matters what we learn as beings through all of the creation processes, something that will stay with us even when our physical body dies. Whatever our current circumstances are, there will always be an opportunity to learn. That is the law of nature. Have you read Victor Frankln's book, Man's Search for Meaning? He spent 30-odd years in German concentration camps. In the book, he beautifully encapsulates how a man can find meaning and purpose in even the most difficult circumstances, driving him to better himself and others around him. Those extreme experiences shaped him as a person and helped him improve his expression.  So, how can we apply this knowledge positively in our lives? Take any scenario that presents itself as a challenge in our lives. Investigate what it is eliciting in us. Perhaps it is a negative emotion. Explore what we can learn and let go of. Explore what new qualities are emerging from the challenges. Maybe it's surrender, humility, or self-acceptance. Perhaps it's focus, willpower, and commitment. Consider what actions arise from this new beingness. Now, bring this positive expression into the world. It's my passion to offer my assistance to those who are on an awakening path.

What makes us think about past events and wish they could have been different? What does the imagination bring us? Maybe it is some guilt or regret but there could also be some pleasurable feelings associated with it. In which case how does one go about overcoming them? First, we have to be clear with ourselves, we do want to overcome them. To be at that place, one must first allow these imaginations to take place without judgments and see how one feels about it. Does it make us sad, happy, exhausted, etc? Does it serve to be in that? At some point, we would realize that it's not worth going us down ultimately and not positively adding to life. If we are clear about the previous step, the best approach would be discipline. Every time the mind visions about the past, bring the attention towards the present and be clear that we dont want to give energy to the past. We can bring attention to the present by focusing on the breath and feeling the body's sensations such as the heart. In this way are anchoring our energy into the present. In this case, the mind quietens and can recede into the background. Now look for the feeling the quiet space brings - it could be stillness, lightness, relaxation. The more we do that with patience and persistence, the more we orient our lives positively and the mind stops interfering altogether and starts working positively in our lives.

This is a heart touching poetry and traditional Kabir Bhajan that I had been singing for a while, I thought it needed a video of its own. I feel called to create more such videos with music. Whenever I sing these songs, poeple have told me , it has been quite activational in helping them connect to their heart centre. So here it is, the first in the series - Sounds of Kabir - Naiharwa. In this poetry, Kabir speaks of the pain of separation from the divine(beloved) and how following your own inner guru(soul) can lead to the union with the divine. I'm sharing the poetry and the translation below. You can either close your eyes , relax and let the music do its job or open your eyes and let the visuals and the poetry take you on a different journey. Much love Vimal 🙏

What would you say is the game changer in your spiritual evolution? I would say it is the ability to take ownership. What do I mean? Let's say, you put your energy into your passion to create something but it fails. You can expect all kinds of internal reactions like feeling like a failure, not being supported etc. But the most classic one would be to feel like the victim. When this happens, the tendency is to go into the mind and beat oneself up because of it. Or imagine being in a loving relationship with someone but your apparent needs arent being met. It would be easy to be the victim and blame the other the hurt we might be feeling. When we do this we unconsciously lose sight of the opportunity that was presented in the situation - the relationship as a mirror to see a deeper part of ourselves. The most empowering thing at this point, is to realise that we have created the situation to realise something crucial about ourselves. No one is doing it to ourselves. It then becomes an opportunity of self realisation and growth. The orientation of life then becomes about a process of growth and expansion rather than achieving any particular outcome. We win in such a situation because every set back becomes an opportunity for success. It always was and always will be. All it needs is a shift in perspective. This is taking ownership of the situation. But I'm definitely not talking about reframing the situation so that it becomes empowering as often is practised in many healing practices. I have often seen well acclaimed spiritual teachers advocating to practice compassion and patience instead of anger. This would be a judgment of seeing patience as somehow better than anger. In which case we miss the opportunity of reclaiming the gem inside the anger which could be will power, setting strong boundaries etc. Instead taking true ownership is to go deep into the feelings in that moment by accepting it completely. If we can do that without projecting or blaming it on something or someone external to us, then we can quickly breakthrough the contraction into the true empowerment of the self. Life becomes a continual process of dying of the old and the birth of the new. This becomes the engine for evolution and self expression. The new that emerges from the old is not a static state but a free flowing one. This is an energy when expressed into the world creates new pathways, connections and opportunities. I would like to leave with you a song I made a year back which is aptly named "Emerge". Enjoy! Vimal 💚🙏 The process of emergence becomes easier and effective in a non judgmental space offerred by a facilitator.

I was invited to play music and accompany the musicians for a Dance for Universal Peace session. I went for the session in the hope of serving the community which was conducting it. Although I had intuition, the energy behind the movement was not fully in alignment with my orientation. The facilitators and people involved were kind and welcoming, and there was enough space to express oneself; nothing was expected from anybody. These were all good things about the dance sessions. However, I also saw some poignant synchronicities as I was inquiring about the nature of the energy and what I was feeling in my field. There was a dumping-down effect on my consciousness, especially around the crown and third eye area. What's this about? On the right side of the circle, a woman was wearing a T-shirt written "Puppet Master, and on the exact opposite, a guy was wearing a T-shirt with a picture of a monk elevated from the ground. Yes, the pieces were landing for me! There was an energy behind the scenes that was working on elevating people's consciousness into a collective bubble. A few minutes into the session, I was tuning into the group, and many people seemed 'blissed out' with smiling faces. They were feeling good about the whole thing, but at what cost? The facilitators of the session were inviting this collective energy into the group, which was elevating the group. That is what they were 'trained' to do ~! I feel given to share; the cost is one's sovereignty and interconnectivity with the universe. The cost is the freedom and flow of each individual's soul. The cost is being lulled into a collective bubble, which is so far out of alignment with the natural flow of life and Gaia. In the journey towards truth, there are many self-deceiving traps one has to confront. The trap of light and love is one such thing. It makes you stop from inquiring more. It blinds you from the true nature of reality. What was my part in it? How was I creating this? There was a subtle judgment as to whether they were wrong and I was right, which is a distortion. As was reflected through synchronicity, each has its path, and it's not my place to tell if they are wrong or right. Yet, it's my right to stand by the truth that I feel and draw effective boundaries. And if they truly respect and love me, they will understand my truth. If not, it's not unconditional love, and there is no point in connecting with such individuals. With that, I felt like drawing a boundary, thereby withdrawing myself from the group. In the journey of self-realization, I have learned something - most people want to feel good about themselves and are not interested in peeling off layers of ego identification and truly unleashing the soul. That's the sad truth, but something I learned to live with. At the same, I also feel blessed to be connected with certain individuals in my life who are truly inquiring and exploding the myth of identification. I realize that these are good opportunities to withdraw ourselves from that which doesn't serve us anymore and which is not in alignment with our highest truth. The more we effectively do that without conflict or judgment the better the reflections we create in our environment. Vimal 💚🙏

What if you simply realized one day that YOU were what you were looking for? You are the divine! You create your reality every moment. And what you have is a mirror that allows you to see yourself—who you are and what you create. This mirror functions as an attenuation mechanism, refining your creations and expressions. And thus YOU have the power to create more authentically and change what's not serving you. All it needs is a shift in perception and readiness to dive deep within. We've been duped into a matrix of rules and logic that tells us what we can become, how to behave, and what is and isn't possible. It begins in early childhood when we accept the conditioning of society, our parents, and school. When done repeatedly, this creates a strong set of mental programs known as identity, or ego. And the more we engage in our identity, the more it becomes ingrained in our psyche. It becomes so normalized that we don't even question it. After all, 8 billion people on the planet are in that! Look around, take a walk down the street. It can become obvious after a while of inquiring. Something isn't right with how things have been designed here. Yes, I would say it was designed because it was created in this manner, and humans have been programmed to fit into this system. Yes, we can function in it, draw resources from it, and even become comfortable with it to some extent. What if something else is possible? What if our divine birthright—our connection to divinity—has been stolen from us and we can reclaim it? It's possible! But we need to want it. What would it be like to feel the innate joy of being, the expansiveness and timelessness, to feel intimately connected with nature and fellow beings, to have an open heart filled with love and excitement, to be fearless of any outcome, and to be vulnerable and trusting in the world? What would it be like to be able to express yourself freely and have fulfilling relationships and friendships? I'm just highlighting a few qualities, feelings, and expressions of our true selves—our soul. When we peel back the layers of identification (ego) in the body, mind, and emotions, something natural begins to emerge within our being. It starts with subtle glimpses into the sensation of it. When you experience this feeling for the first time, it's as if you've been searching for it all along. And no amount of persuasion or logic would allow you to question the feeling. Plug into the real intelligence - our True self You simply recognize it as the truth. When it happened to me for the first time several years ago, I had an innate knowing that my life had changed completely and that there was no turning back, and this feeling was exactly what I had been looking for all along. But the journey does not end there. It's just the beginning. There is the question of how one can live and express themselves from within the soul at all times. You see, the world has purposefully narrowed our vision to keep us small and contained. There are distractions, entertainment, drugs, and other things that can alleviate the pain of being disconnected from our divinity. Yes, being disconnected from our inner essence causes pain, confusion, stress, and anxiety. We have medication to fix this and continue to function in the world. But at some point, the penny would drop—that path is not serving us anymore. There is a different route you can take, to reclaim what we have lost. The question is how? Every time, you are feeling some kind of emotional distress, anxiety, pain, or confusion, they are all essential doorways towards freedom—to your soul. Remember what I said in the beginning: you are the divine; you create everything in your lives, including the pain and the discomfort—including the failures and mishaps. It's at this time, to take full responsibility for the feeling one is having. It is to recognize that, they were created to have a self-realization opportunity—to realize what you are not ( an identity) and what you are—the boundless soul free-flowing. The soul is not afraid of any particular outcome because it simply doesn't need reality to be one way or another. It knows that, when something fails, or is lost, energy is created from the old, which can create something new. No feelings are wrong from this perspective because they are simply temporary creations on the blank canvas of life. When we let go of inner identification, we let go of any attachment whatsoever to outer reality as well. This is freedom. This doesn't mean, we won't create or engage in our lives. Far from it. It means we can simply engage with life, create, and express ourselves without attachment. Intrigued? Are you curious, about how living from the soul looks and feels? Come explore with me.

If you've been exploring your inner landscape for a time, you've most certainly begun to receive divine guidance in the form of heartfelt knowing, signs, and synchronicity. It's a magical feeling of being held in an inquiry that is supported and nurtured, actualizing who we truly are! I like to think of this in terms of energy and frequency. Maybe it's the scientist in me who seeks to ground and articulate higher knowledge so that the mind may grasp wisdom. When we begin to purify our bodies, emotions, and minds via self-inquiry, we break free from the baggage we carry unknowingly, and our vibration begins to rise. This can be likened to a radio that begins to tune into various frequencies. We begin to get our information from other sources than before. By then, we may have begun to trust our ability to discern whether information is true for us by looking for resonance in what get externally. We will also sense a significant rise in our energy levels, which are no longer obstructed within as a result of the many baggages we have released. We may begin to create in new ways, and our entire lives may shift as a result. Our orientation would also have changed drastically at this point which is no longer invested in manifesting the things we think we want but it becomes more of a journey of learning and evolutionary growth. Great peace comes with this shift in inner orientation. We can't lose in this game because we will come to realize, that life is not about achieving any particular goal or reaching a destination but it's more about the constant unraveling of the old self and the emergence and embodiment of the new. We start to see how every situation especially the challenging ones is only helping us learn about ourselves and gain greater freedom. Life shifts from one of constant doing to one of being. The creative action is sparked no longer from the programmed mind which thinks it ought to complete certain things but it comes from the higher mind sparked by the divine inspiration. At times the magic of divine connection may close down as we travel into inner density. This is an essential part of the journey and not something to be feared. Because only through such confrontation we grow as a being. If we are mindful we may notice this closing down as tightness and pain in the body and mind. They usually point to some unconsciousness we are carrying within. If we are courageous enough to sit with the pain without trying to heal or fix the situation we are in, a valuable opportunity is presented to us. In time the inner blockage would resolve itself resulting in greater peace and harmony. We would have learned something crucial about ourselves at this point and embodied further qualities of being. It may be a renewed energy of peace and stillness or creativity, willpower, etc. They are the driving force for change and transformation. Now more than ever each one of us is needed and invited to take this journey. Our planet is going through a massive transformation. This is happening when the sun's magnetic shield is lowered due to an upcoming solar minimum, while the earth's magnetic shield diminishes due to an ongoing pole shift. What this means is that more cosmic energy from the galactic core can reach the Earth. We can gain massively from this influx of energy. Our lives can be transformed and uplifted by it. But it's down to each one of us to choose our orientation. What would be yours? Much love Vimal 💚🙏 Are you on the journey of awakening and transformation?

The video I'm about to offer shows the world's top billionaires building underground bunkers. The news anchor goes on to ask, what are they afraid of? What do they know that we do not know? Are they developing it to avoid a worldwide catastrophe? First Post news - Billionaires are Building Bunkers. Do They Know Something We Don't? | Vantage with Palki Sharma It's high time we wake up from the illusionary reality we've been fooled into. Yes, a worldwide catastrophe is imminent. And no bunkers would be deep enough, and no spacecraft could fly you far enough. What is coming is a Grand galactic convergence. Before I even begin to speak about it, I can hear people's opposition. Some may claim I'm trying to instill terror. But fear cannot be spread. If my words trigger fear, then that's a gateway of opportunity for you to step through. And some may even say, "Let the global catastrophe happen; I don't care because we're all going to die together." This would be another avoidance tactic for the small identity self, which still considers itself to be disconnected from the cosmos itself. However, if we are actually courageous enough to go past the avoidance mechanics into our fear, we will have the greatest potential to step through our small self identity into the truth of who we truly are, which is the cosmic self interwoven with the flow of the universe. We are indeed intrinsically related to the galactic center, the sun, and the planet. Many waking folks have seen the sign 11:11 from time to time. For me, it represents our soul's connection to the galactic center, the sun, and the earth's soul. When we truly follow our soul and make aligned decisions, we become part of a larger movement rather than a distinct bubble. This is the most incredible freedom we could ever imagine. Also, if you think "I'm spiritual, I meditate regularly, and I feel good about myself" - not so sorry to break your bubble. That is, certainly, another avoidance bubble. We can't keep on living today the same as yesterday. When we completely step out of the ego, we begin to observe and feel other malevolent energies attempting to deceive and drag us off course from our aligned destiny. This energy of what I'm speaking about has created intentional love and light bubble to dupe people into it - a sophisticated deception. I would say a major portion of the spiritual mainstream is alluding to this. Those who are alluding to it may think they are walking an aligned path, but plugging into a deceptive energy in the 4D and not to their soul. There is a way out of this if we are truly honest with ourselves. Right now cosmic energies are teaming up around the earth to help us awaken from this mass delusion and step into our soul. The universe has created the perfect circumstances for us to awaken. This journey is not a build-up process but its actually a progressive destructive process - shattering all the illusion we allude into it. We are not physical. We are not human. We are spiritual beings incarnated into a human vehicle. And the opportunity is for us to step into the truth of who we really are. Are you going to be the one who will be listening to this invitation ? If you are I extend my arm to you. Here are the spiritual services I offer.

Last year, my partner and I went on a 2-day trekking trip to Kareri Lake near Dharamsala. It was made clear to us with plentiful synchronicities that we were feeling the original human in us through the experience. On the final spot where we camped near the lake, we found this incredible rock shaped like the skull of an early human. In the video, I talk about our experiences embodying this energy. There is some beautiful footage of the mountains and the forest around them. I hope it inspires your journey. How can we embody the original human DNA once again? WE have been duped into believing in a system which is cut off from the natural rhythm of life. But I say its possible to connect back to our roots. This happens by the inner journey where we peel off the layers of attachment to the physicality. Its my passion to support others on a similar journey.

What is your life path? Perhaps it's your career? Or it could be a spiritual one. For me, the path disappears as I realize that I can't control reality and thus step positively into the unknown. The path is defined by a goal or an outcome we think we must attain—perfection, for example. But at some point on the journey, I realized that there was no such final destination. And instead of the path, there is an unfolding—into ever finer layers of myself. As each subconscious fear gets peeled away, we embody new gifts through which the path forges itself. No longer is there a path to follow, but we are creating it as we go! Every path, even and especially the spiritual path, can be a baggage that we carry that must be let go of at some point. It's a tremendous liberation! It allows us the freedom to make mistakes and thus discover that these mistakes are important elements on the path. And each gift we uncover within ourselves starts to positively shape our reality. I wanted to add an interesting synchronicity I noticed after writing this. I went for a walk afterward and felt a strong pull to take a different and unfamiliar route than my usual one. The first thing I noticed was a discarded packet of chips in which was written - No Rulz. Indeed we make up our own! And next some pictures of rabbits. I think it means vulnerability to the unknown. This path eventually led to the one I usually take! It confirmed what I had expressed - we never actually wander off from our path. It's a cosmic joke we play on ourselves! What are these gifts? It could be self-acceptance, surrender into the natural flow, joy, focus, resilience, etc. Every problem then becomes an opportunity to embody these gifts. It's no longer a problem to fix but an opportunity for self-actualization. These qualities are the answer to every problem we aim to fix and cure in our lives. So look at every situation and ask the question - what are the gifts that I'm invited to actualize through it? Remember the answer is not an intellectual one. It's an embodied realization. They get naturally integrated into our lives when we heal the blocking layers of trauma. Check out here: Virtual healing sessions Be a part of the community!

Who is our inner father? We all know of a father outside—our biological father—or we even call the sun our celestial father. But is there a father inside? I'm talking about an energy here. It's an energy that we can all embody that greatly benefits our journey. I will begin by sharing an experience I had recently I sometimes fast for a day and begin the next day with coffee. It can make one incredibly high and expansive. That's what I did, and I went to the nearby nature spot to bask in the morning sun and listen to some songs on my phone. But just when the first song started playing, I noticed that my phone was nearly dead, and sure enough, before the song could hit 20 seconds, my phone died. But I happened to catch the name of the song, which was synchronistically named The Love of the Father by Kevin Wood. The first inner feeling I noticed was a subtle victimhood. It went something like this: I fasted for the entire day yesterday, and all I wanted to do was listen to some songs and begin my day. Why would you do this to me? I'm sure you can all recognize the subtle projections we carry. But then I also noticed the perfection of the experience and what I was being invited to self-realize through it. I was projecting the divine, or father, as an outside entity and expecting some level of support from it, as synchronically pointed out by the name of the song. And then it hit me—most of the distortions that I carry can be traced back to this phenomenon. How often do we feel that we are left alone in this confusing place without any kind of support, left to fend for ourselves? But this experience was inviting me to realize: "Look, you are the father, the divine, and the ONE. You create all the experiences you have. Why? So that we can self-realize through it. So we can know who we are through it all. This is a key characteristic of the father energy I'm talking about: it's ready to take ownership of its experience and not project or blame it outside. When we take ownership in this way, it can be incredibly healing and empowering. Think about our relationships—how often do we project or blame the other person when something goes wrong? If we catch ourselves engaging in these behaviors, we can begin to transform them. A good question that I have found helpful in such situations is to ask, Why did I manifest this? And if you are not sure, ask the universe, "Show me." It usually illuminates an unconscious spot we have within, through which we can learn and evolve. We can always win through such situations because, even when situations go the way we don't want, we see the perfection, the magic, and the value of experience. Through it, we are gaining something! But the moment we blame something outside as the causality of our experience, we disempower ourselves. We do it all the time, sometimes in the most subtle ways, because projecting it outside can temporarily ease the baggage we carry. But it never truly fulfills the true value of experience. If we assume for a minute that the grand purpose of the universe and our existence is continual evolution and thereby aligned expression, we can conclude that this game of self-realization is all that's happening on any given day and every moment. We just miss this grand game because of all the goals and aspirations of the small identity self. But to truly come in alignment with the universe, is to see the opportunity in every experience. What are the other traits of the inner father? The father energy is trusting The father energy is trusting in itself and the natural workings of the universe. I'm not talking about blindly trusting that everything will work out fine, although everything seems to click in when we come into alignment with the natural flow. But the ego can have its agendas, fears, and desires. It expects things to go a certain way, and when they don't, we may easily lose trust. But the trust I'm talking about is trust in the natural order of things by giving ourselves permission to flow with the universe and not against it. It doesn't create the situation we want, but it most definitely creates the situation we need to experience—to help us embody the next grandest version of ourselves. The father energy is vulnerable When we trust enough that the universe is not working against us but for us, then we furnish enough courage and strength to just let go of control and drop into the flow. It's that moment when we make ourselves vulnerable by accepting all the outcomes the flow harnesses for us. From my personal experience, even though the flow had harnessed some pretty challenging experiences, it was never something that I couldn't cope with, and I learned quite a lot about myself through it. Think about this: a lot of energy is spent in controlling, protecting, and making the situations go our way. When we relinquish control, all that energy is made available to us, which gets naturally directed towards aligned action and creativity. This would create ever more harmonious situations for us. The father energy is a natural leader The inner father is resolute and ready to stand in its truth regardless of all the projections it receives. When one is trusting and sees the natural order of the universe clicking in around themselves, then there's every motivation to stand in this truth and express that. I would like to share this experience I had many moons ago I was studying control system engineering at a college in South India. Yes, I know—sometimes the universe gives a tight slap on our cheek and asks us to look at our reflections. In this case, it said, You have built a life based on control, and now it's time to relinquish it. I knew I had to, as there was every motivation and inspiration to do so. But the leap to the unknown seemed so monumental. I know this action would have consequences and opposition from my family, friends, and even worse, my mind! After all, I had worked my ass to get to this place. But one day, as I was contemplating taking this leap, this song came to me by Eminem. And the lyrics went like this: "I'm not afraid To take a stand Come take my hand We'll walk this road together, through the storm" It felt like the whole universe came down at that point to support my action. Then it didn't matter what others said; I had the power of the universe to back up my actions. Any sense of self-doubt and fear vanished at that point, and I was filled with excitement and adventure for the step that I was about to take. What are the other characteristics of father energy that you have noticed? If this writing resonates and you would like to get in touch. It's my passion to assist others who are on a similar journey of self-realization. Check out: Soul Facilitation I would like to leave with you a song.

One of the most common concerns raised in spiritual inquiry and meditation is mental chatter. People convey difficulty in meditation owing to their minds, therefore the issue becomes, how can I still or quiet the mind? In this case, I'd like to revisit the fundamentals of spiritual inquiry and offer some of the insights. First and foremost, there is no need to quiet or calm your mind. If there is an attempt to do so, it is solely from the ego. Because the mind is a great tool, the only problem in this case this the tool is using us and not vice versa. Look around your room. What are you seeing? Walls, furniture, computer, etc. We all know that they are merely objects in the landscape of our awareness. Can you see thoughts in the same manner - as objects in our consciousness? One of my favorite authors says to consider thoughts as simple bird sounds - One bird may remark, "Hey, you are wonderful and you achieved so and so forth," while the other bird may say, "Hey, you messed up once more; you could have done better." It may sound convincing in many circumstances. But they're just birds commenting on your experience. Can you see your thoughts in the same way? ~Settling the mud~ Alan Watts had articulated himself rather eloquently. If you have a glass of murky water and want to settle the muck, you won't swirl the water to settle it, but will instead set the glass aside. When we do this, the mud settles to the bottom over time, and the water becomes increasingly clear. Alternatively, you could visualize the mind as clouds flowing through the sky of your consciousness. However, you are not the clouds in the background, but rather the still sky. When we approach meditation in this manner, something significant occurs: at some point, you get disassociated from the mind and settle further into the observer. The thoughts are a symptom, not the problem. This is mostly because our mind is focused on denser vibrations, which drown out lighter vibrations. Imagine you are watching an orchestra perform. However, the artist playing the bass drum is playing it so loudly that you can barely hear the sounds of the other instruments. The subtle tones of the flute and violin are drowned out. After a while, this becomes normal, and one may find it difficult to accept that other subtle sounds exist. ~Let's science it up a little bit~! According to quantum physics, the Universe consists of 11 dimensions. We can tune into each of these dimensions. However, humanity's awareness is currently tuned into the lowest three dimensions: physical (1st dimension), emotional (2nd dimension), and mental (3rd dimension). You can compare us to a radio tuned to these three stations. When we engage in spiritual work and begin to dig deeply into the essence of reality, we gradually begin to unwind the various ties that bind us to these layers. For example, fear of survival, poverty consciousness, illness, and so on would cause us to identify with physicality. Dependence in relationships and other negative emotions would bind us on the emotional plane. The conditioning and mental programming we got from our parents, teachers, and society as a whole would tie us to the mental level. However, through the inner process of mediation and self-inquiry, we would peel off these many identities to these distinct layers. At this point, one experiences awakening and thereby experiences the fourth dimension or causal body. This means that the kundalini energy has started to rise from the base and activate the heart. Thus our consciousness and orientation in life shift from purely logic-oriented to following the heart. We may feel compassion for others while experiencing unconditional love. But the journey does not end there; it is just the beginning! To be clear, I'm not stating to switch off the mind. But when the heart opens it takes precedence in our lives and the mind begins to be an effective tool working in harmony with the heart. ~Raising one's vibration~ At this point, our focus may shift from shaping or controlling reality to manifesting egoic desires to experiencing deep joy and unconditional love. These are subtle vibrations as opposed to the dense vibrations of the mind and emotions, so raising our vibration is essential for tuning in to these subtle and higher frequencies. We are preparing our vehicle - body, and mind, for the lighter vibrations. So here are some tips to help you raise your vibration. 1. Meditate - Daily meditation allows us to disengage from mental games and identification with the story of our lives and instead settle into the observer and experience deep inner peace. 2. Purifying diet - If we eat more dense foods, such as meat and dairy, our consciousness is likely to become focused on these frequencies. However, if we adopt a more pranic diet and fasting practices, such as intermittent fasting, we can detoxify our bodies and be attuned to lighter vibration. 3. Practice setting boundaries - If we are consumed within toxic relationships or relationship dynamics that generate a lot of negative emotions then it can inadvertently hurt our health and peace. So it's critical to establish healthy boundaries within relationships. 4. Declutter the mind - How often do we become engrossed in media, social networks, and other distractions, only to find ourselves scrolling? Being mindful of these behaviors can also help us set boundaries within them. Let's face it: we have a relationship with our phones. Many times, it appears that this relationship serves us by giving us a dopamine shot. However, you know when this relationship turns toxic. 5. Spend time in nature--this is my favorite. When I connect with Mother Nature, she helps me ground myself, calm my thoughts, and tune into lighter frequencies. She can help you develop self-love! Have you tried cold plunging? It is one of my favorite practices. It can effectively remove negativity and raise one's vibration. Check out cold plunging here. ~Cold plunging~ Returning to the original topic of releasing the thought loops. When we raise our vibration, we begin to tune into the higher vibrations of the soul. It can be perceived as divine love, interconnectedness, joy, focus, passion, and so on. The more we focus our consciousness on these lighter vibrations, the less influence the mind has on us. We begin to feel the pure joy of being and living! What better way to live your life? It is my passion to help others on a similar journey of discovering the joy of being and interconnectedness.
