Tune into the best version of you

Physical existence is about tuning in and tuning out.  You tune into things when you focus attention on them and come to believe they are part of your reality. Something only becomes real when you believe in it, choose to visualize it and integrate it into your experience.  You tune out of things when you no longer focus attention and energy on them.

Step back and reflect on different areas of your life.  Notice what you tune into and out of at different stages. People seem to enter and exit your life based on what you tune into and also the vibration you give off.  You are drawn to or resonate with different kinds of people, life roles, conditions, geography, food, music and experiences.

As you raise awareness, you are honest with how you think and feel.  It is then easy to tune into the best version of you, to deliberately draw into your life exactly what resonates best right now. What no longer resonates falls away.  As lessons are learned, situations that present resolve themselves.  Know you create every facit of your reality.  You always get what soul needs to grow even if its not what ego wants. 

Simplify Your Life: imitate nature

The moment you begin to feel truly ready to Simplify Your Life, you challenge your beliefs, dismantle them until you have none.  It is the nature of beliefs to materialize into versions of reality. The mind always gives you answers about reality based on things you have read or been told.  This is the intellectual way of experiencing life. Living from the heart is the feeling way to live according to true nature. Imitating Mother Nature is accepting inner knowing, going with the flow, being yourself, doing what feels right without asking why. Peace and innocence are felt.  

At any given moment, the mind thinks you want happiness.  The heart wants nothing. It simply loves and is in a state of bliss. This is subtle, pure feeling.  Move beyond urges for words and questioning.  Surrender to the heart.  Feel it out. Discover what never comes and goes in this moment. Be the empty vessel. 

5 Ways to know what feels right

Life presents many situations.  The choices about what to do may seem endless.  People around you offer unsollicited advice and opinions.  Explore in depth five ways to know what feels right;

1) Be aware of the body - everything you detect and do not notice about the body is communicating with you. Be bold, daring.  Ask body parts directly what they wish you to know.

2) Be aware of your thoughts- thought forms come and go.  Dwelling on any mental image gives it life. Read your emotions. What feels right requires no thought. It guides impulsiveness.

3) Be aware of the nature of your relationships -everyone you meet is a pointer to what the heart knows.  Each person is synchronicity taking form, guiding you to see the best choice.

4) Be aware of your chosen environment(s) - every environment emits energy that resonates with your energy or not.  Be aware of attraction or repulsion and underlying reasons.

5) Be aware of the difference between conditioned beliefs & intuition -you are taught what is good, right or best for you. These beliefs differ from unexplainable reasons why you act.

The truth of intrinsic value

Brainstorm what you value. Notice certain metals, gems, and currencies may appear on the list. Notice physical and non-physical things you value evolve with you. Think some things are more valuable than others? Pay attention to who interprets what has value for "you".

Now, step back.  You begin to see nothing has value, or holds importance, unless you believe it in the mind, unless you buy into collective agreement about what has value. You begin to see the inner judge in action. Notice what happens as you begin to see through your beliefs. How do you feel about an inner shift to valuing more peaceful, mindful awareness? 

Whether or not you get that job, the relationship breaks up or stays together, or your wildest dreams come true, what has intrinsic value always provides what you need.  Observe: The less attached you are to people, weather, seasons and other things, the more you accept what unfolds in your scope of awareness with grace and gratitude. As well, the more receptive you are now, the more empathic you are of people and their circumstances, and the more willing you are to reach out and lend a hand. Everything points to what has intrinsic value.

It is said the more things of value a person acquires, the more fearful and insecure he is about losing them. As you remain reserved, do not allow yourself to attach or cling,  you come to appreciate where you are and an amazing thing happens. Fear and selfishness disappear. What you have or not is less important than how you feel. You only see the good in people.  Everything points toward it. You only see things as they are (not as the judging mind does).

Letting go of expectations shifts the focus inward.  Keep in sight the nature of impermanence and non-self.  Accept the insight of impermanence in this moment.  When you resist being here as  wholeness, you resist embracing true self.  Be nothing.  Understand everything. As human beings, we share one Source, one origin. What we cannot change has intrinsic value.  Send energy of love and compassion to every part of the body.  All that matters is revealed.

"We are the men of intrinsic value, who can strike our fortunes out of ourselves, whose worth is independent of accidents in life, or revolutions in government..." -George Farquhar

Notice hidden treasure

Life is a dream.  Notice whether you leave footprints.  Notice what you feed the mind and heart.  Do you nourish and sustain yourself with beliefs and judgments? Listen closely to the words you choose, the emotional reactions that erupt and come to see them as they are.  Thought energy serves you and also flows without you.  Watch.

Notice the nature of dream walking and the pace slows. Be silent and shift focus from being to non-being, from perceived existence to non-existence. Notice the spirit has no hunger. It is illuminated as light. The phoenix emerges from the ashes and transforms into a bird of paradise through the power of intention and integrity. Feel the hidden treasure that never loses direction and never seeks one. The secret is no secret.

"The psyche of man is dreaming all the time, consciously as well as unconsciously.  The dreams we have at night are only a small part of this totality." - Swami Satananda Saraswati
