The Flowering of Being
When you let go of that which you are: The ideas, the planning, the control, the need to grab on to something: a relationship, a job, an idea how to be successful, an outcome or that which you need.
The ‘You’ you are being is the real you. It is the idea that you are only this body with it’s analysis, history and limitations by assessment which you’ve put on it. When you let go of this false identity of the small me, the ego, then we are free, even in a moment, whether that is while playing tennis, on the dance floor or in a conversation.
This freedom gives a possibility for the being you are really are, the multidimensional soul energy which you are to shine through and start flowering. When we then go back to the ego afterwards and we limit ourselves again through our mind’s (un)conscious filter of ideas and convictions about what you are then even though we cannot experience the being from this place, the being has flowered just a tiny little bit.
That being, is waiting for it’s turn to be free again once more and waiting for it’s opportunity. It can never be lost. It can never be destroyed but it can flower, or it can remain a seed of transformation. It needs water, time, energy and love.
When the being has flowered a little bit, through an insight or through spiritual awakening, it has grown, but it needs more time to grow solid. Without time, acceptance and dedication to being it will not grow but it will wither.
When we spend time in being, our being strengthens and our ego or identity tries to fight this. It tries to gain control again by asking questions like: How are we going to pay rent? Will I achieve my goals this way? Will people accept me? These questions are really pointing to the building blocks or our identity, so the observer can see these and let go of them to create more space for the being. Or they can go back to their ego and the promises it holds to do reach these goals.
So the ego can be strengthened by a spiritual insight or experience if it is used to discard the being, because it is ’not practical’, which is an illusion. Being reveals the illusions of the mind and what is more practical than moving about in a way that is less illusionary. Sounds more practical right? Well it is.
When people drop into their being by being in flow or by meditating they expect a big thing from just a seed. The being needs time to flower and grow into an oak tree or a rose tree, whatever fits your being better. The Truth of Being needs time to shine it’s light on all your illusions, identifications, convictions and limitations. Give it the space to be. Sometimes it might take time for it to be able to pay the bills or to find rediscover your calling, your health and your self-love because it is hidden under layers and layers of painful history to uncover and re-interpret. Give it the time it needs to show you your true face, that is love.
The ego wants to conquer and guard the best place in the universe. The being knows it is the universe, so it stops fighting with what is and know it is free already.
