Our conscious minds really like to think that they are in control and have things sorted.
However, the more you delve into your own awareness, the more it will become apparent that there is much more going on below the conscious level, and that this sense of “control” is just an impression.
Letting go of the illusion that we are in control is one of the most freeing and peace-promoting things that our conscious minds can do.
As our awareness continues to increase and we become more conscious of our choices in each moment, we have freedom beyond what we could ever have imagined. By coming home to these deeper aspects of ourselves, we get to experience the Divine within us. By Devine I am referring to energy, powers way beyond our comprehension, what ever name that works for you.
Sure, we can make choices and be responsible for the outcomes of our choices – that is what gives us the illusion of control in the first place. However, in a wider sense, relinquishing the notion of control is more a matter of aligning with Divinity, rather than fighting against it.
When we align with Divinity, we are free to fully experience the Divinity in every moment.
It seems to me that the only choice each of us has to make is to resist Divinity or align with Divinity. One leads to suffering of all sorts and one leads to a peace and freedom beyond all understanding.
In the early hours of a particular spring morning, I was guided by Divinity in a meditation and experienced this alignment directly.
The meditative path I went down, a journey beyond my conscious mind, has since been recorded into a guided meditation CD using Tibetan singing bowls as the backing vibration. The sounds made by these bowls assist in raising the consciousness of those we do the meditation.
I invite you to explore and experience this in my Meditation CD Awaken to Stillness... Find and Ocean of Peace Within Your Heart
