Feel the words,
Take them in.
Let yourself experience their meaning,
Their importance.
There are pivotal moments,
Tipping points,
Where we are standing on a precipice.
It is as our eyes suddenly open to seeing everything with clarity.
It is in that moment that we awaken,
That we wake up to our life and what actions we have been engaging in that are not serving our deepest desires,
Nor our highest good.
In those critical moments,
It is impossible to turn back.
Being able to witness the truth,
To have clear knowing of it,
Means that we no longer live in darkness or the absence of truth.
We cannot pretend that we do not know what we know.
Being awake means that we also see the outcome of our choices.
In the moment of awakening,
We instantly know what we must do to live happily,
To do what will be best and right for our life,
And to fulfill our deepest desires.
To awaken,
You must have the desire in your heart for change,
For answers,
For understanding.
You awaken the first moment.
Then it is by choice that you either remain awake or attempt to return to slumber.
You awaken because of your conscious choice to do so,
To step outside of the thoughts that you tell yourself,
Thoughts driven by fear,
Sorrow,
Avoidance,
Suffering.
You bring presence into this moment.
You go inward.
You hold presence to what is.
You see everything as it is,
As it needs to be,
With acceptance,
Not fear.
Because to awaken is to open your heart to the true knowing of what is,
What needs to be for your life to flourish.
With your eyes closed,
Hold your attention in the present.
Be here.
Let your focus be on the inhalation and exhalation of breath.
Let yourself be with your experience.
Be aware of your thoughts.
Be aware of your thoughts.
Focus from where they originate.
Notice their presence.
These are just thoughts.
To awaken,
You must connect with the deepest aspect of what you are.
Go within.
Deeper.
Imagine that your thoughts are made like your heart is.
Feel the presence of this inner knowing.
Where do you witness it?
What does the voice of your highest self sound like?
What does the voice of your highest self sound like?
What does the voice of your highest self sound like?
Witness its presence of calm,
Of peace,
Of confident certainty.
This is the voice,
The wisdom of your highest self.
When you awaken,
You will know.
It will be this discovery of you and the incessant thinking brain that you have been used to hearing.
And this quiet,
More peaceful aspect of you,
Barely discernible before this moment.
Now as your mind is quiet,
You are able to witness its presence.
It has always been with you.
This offering wisdom,
Guidance,
Inspiration,
Truth.
This is the voice,
The wisdom of your highest self.
This is the voice,
The wisdom of your highest self.
In to this aspect,
To this part of you.
Be for a time in the presence of your highest self.
Allow yourself to be here for a time,
Simply present to your awakened state,
Willing to live in it for a time,
For always.
This is the voice,
The wisdom of your highest self.
This is the voice,
The wisdom of your highest self.
Then,
When you are ready,
Gently allow your presence to witness all that is around you.
To witness yourself as a part of your environment,
Awake,
Aware,
In this heightened consciousness that allows you to feel a connection with all things.
Allow it out emotionally,
So beautifully.
Be here for a time.
Be willing to live awakened.
Namaste.
Be here for a time.
Be willing to live awakened.
