The most authentic way to live one’s life is to be true to oneself first and foremost.
To be true to oneself is to be AT ONE with it all.
When you step into willingness to accept all that you are, you give yourself permission TO BE and BECOME.
Many people over time have become diluted in their essence, because they do not take the time to look at who they really are and accept all they are right here, right now.
And in so doing, they carry and see instead what is being projected to them externally (by their partners, family, friends, colleagues, strangers) and therefore act accordingly.
There is nothing congruent with this way of life and this is one of the main roots of anxiety and depression for many. The inability to accept oneself and at the same time control that which is external of you.
Oneness is a word that originates from this same energy of seeing, acknowledging and accepting it all just as it is.
It is part of our Path (human journey) to decide when we choose to accept all that we are as we are – the good and bad (although in actual fact there is no good or bad – just your perception of things).
And until that moment, you walk the path of the unknown and of others for you.
You could say the route to awakening is one that leads you to this acceptance of ONENESS – of being at peace with it all, just as it is.
Knowing who you are, what you are about, accepting not just yourself as you are but of others around you, even when it doesn’t feel aligned to your expectations.
For this acceptance of oneness is knowing that everything is exactly as it should be in this present moment.
Exercise:
Take a moment today to sit quietly and feel back into your body, your breath, the sensations within you, the position to which you sit, where you sit, the environment to which you are in, the landscape around you, the people, your current situation and who you are being.
Expand your consciousness into all these areas in this exact same step and be at peace with it all, without judgement or attachment – knowing it is exactly as it should be.
Stay in this energy of meditation for at least 15mins, when you are done, step into a state of gratitude for the seeing, acceptance and blessings of this moment and go about your day in this energy.
This simple practice if repeated over and over again brings you back into oneness that is everything – where everything is only but a reflection of each other.
And when you are aligned with this energy of oneness, it is difficult for anyone to knock you off your pedestal, for you are at peace with it all just as it is and at one with the universal energy.
