Greetings,
My name is Paulus Doksis and now I would love to talk about how to embody a deeper flow state.
And I believe there will be more sharings on that and also guided meditations,
So check it out.
But for now,
I want to introduce this topic to talk about it in general,
So how to embody a deeper flow state or as Chinese call wu wei which means action without striving or effortless action.
So there are two main aspects to cultivate that and it is like also in Chinese Yin and Yang,
Active and passive.
And I found it is best to start with passive aspect,
Which is more meditative.
When you are becoming still,
Withdraw from your senses,
Your five senses.
From your usual thinking process.
And just sensing into natural flow of life.
And your intrinsic unity with that flow.
So on that yes i will do a guided meditation but yes for now just realize that everything happens from singular source like A river is not flowing on her own.
The river forms from other natural processes that are taking place so we can say It all goes from nature.
But what is nature?
Where is a boundary of nature?
So if we truly inquire into that.
.
.
How everything happens.
What moves everything.
You will start to sense it.
And also you can understand it from a more logical standpoint,
That everything must have one source.
And if there is one ultimate source then by definition it must be infinite.
And from its infinity,
Yes,
Life naturally is generated and sustained and transformed.
There's always cycling.
Within singular,
Infinite,
Eternal existence.
So that circulation of life from source and back to source is the ultimate way,
Which also Chinese called as Dao,
Which roughly translates as the way,
As the universal harmony.
Because everything streams from that pure source.
And always has connection to that singular purity.
Therefore,
Everything originally flows in harmony.
It expresses the sorrows and then withdraws back to the purity of sorrows.
So our individualized lives are included in that.
And we can also sense our harmonious integrity with all that is,
With totality of life.
By acknowledging those truths and sensing into those deep truths.
You can start to realize that we are also having that harmonious divine current.
Which flows effortlessly.
And yes,
Everything we are using in our lives to sustain ourselves or to express ourselves So everything is borrowed,
Nothing originates from us as separated entities.
Actually there is no true separation,
It is only relative separation,
Separation in perception,
Which of course serves us.
But if we forget the underlying unity then it becomes like a tumor,
It becomes like an illness which generates a lot of tension and suffering.
A lot of resistance to that original flow of that effortless flow of life.
And its natural course of evolution.
So our job here is to Wake up within that dream of separation.
And to flow with life as one.
Consciously.
Because yes,
Even when we are unconscious and in that resistance and so on,
We are still flowing,
Everything is still unfolding as best as it can.
And always for assisting us even in becoming more conscious.
Within our patterns.
So that's a good news that we are never abandoned and we are always on the trajectory of expansion.
So now when we are becoming more and more aware about all of this,
Yes,
Our job is to cultivate that consciously,
Cultivate that awareness and That feeling of oneness.
Of unified flow.
And then we can come to the more active part of that cultivation.
Which is,
Yes,
Cooperating with natural flow of life,
With natural changes and seasons of life.
And that cooperation can be distilled to Follow your heart.
Follow your most sincere inner impulses.
And that does not mean be impulsive.
At the surface level,
When we are just reactive,
When we are just seeking pleasure and avoiding pain.
No,
I'm talking about a deep impulse,
Like an inspiration.
Yes,
A better word for that is inspiration or pure love.
Do what you truly love.
Sir.
Yourself and everyone around you.
For your most sincere respectful,
Loving means,
Your unique and authentic means,
Because yes,
You are unique expression,
You are unique path of that same Tao.
So yes.
To align yourself with effortless action,
To align yourself with the deeper flow state,
You still need to do right efforts.
You need to do your best to follow what mostly moves you.
Without insistences on how that activity should unfold,
Where it should lead you.
So all of those rigid expectations and insistences also is what blocks The path.
So we need to have a deeper faith in that original pure impulse that moves us from our depths and then with that we can meet the unknown with again that purity inside of us and also creativity,
Playfulness,
Loving kindness and so through that we can integrate whatever unknown is unfolding before us.
And that's how we are staying on that harmonious path.
On that natural flow,
On that path with least resistance.
And that path also shows us maybe our unconscious resistance,
Our deeper traumas that need loving attention and transformation.
So that's how we are coming back to the more passive cultivation but it is not truly passive it is just inner activity when we withdraw our attention from outer world to the inner world and yes and then we can check with ourselves and find those blockages that blocks our natural flow.
So it is also a process of removing,
Dissolving unnecessary efforts or maybe things,
Habits that are also taking too much space just because of our traumatized part of us trying to compensate for certain feelings of lack.
Our pain.
So through that we can create this balance in our daily organization of time,
Energy,
Space,
Activity.
That's why,
Yes,
We need to do the inner work to clear our path for the most auspicious and meaningful flow.
Here we also can check with ourselves what is most meaningful in our lives.
To clarify that helps to reshape,
Rebalance our life structure which allows again for that to happen.
Our river to flow in the most beneficial way.
So we are always refining our relationship with original source.
And yes,
That takes some right efforts.
But the more we invest in those efforts to get into a better alignment with Source,
The more we feel that effortless flow.
That empowerment,
Wisdom and love that flows from the original source.
And again.
Our lives are direct extension of that.
And then back again to the active cultivation once we clarified and realigned our inner world.
We need to act accordingly,
We need to make actual choices and changes in our daily life to assist our most natural flow,
Our harmonious flow with nature itself,
With life itself.
And it is also a journey to getting better at it.
So yeah,
We need to fully embrace the process.
Yes,
This life is all about process.
Process is the destination.
The more we embrace the process,
Of developing our purest intentions.
In life,
In this world,
The more we are also aligning with that flow state when we are enjoying life,
When we are allowing ourselves to truly enjoy all the processes of life.
That natural unfoldment and various surprises within life.
So yeah,
Life can be experienced as a beautiful fairy tale or animation where each frame beautifully transforms into other and there is a lot of appreciation for all the details and then beautiful creation just happens through you.
You are gracefully flowing through various challenges and unexpected situations.
So yes,
That is available to everyone.
But again,
That requires that.
For automation.
And that cultivation is also a natural part of the process that we chose.
From there.
Highest level of our being.
So there is also one shard mantra that helps to align with that and it sounds like I am where I want to be most and I am what I want to be most right now.
I am where I want to be most and I am what I want to be most right now.
So you can say it out loud and truly feel it.
I am where I want to be most and I am what I am.
I want to be most right now.
So that naturally aligns you to that flow state where you can feel that your most sincere heart's desire are in a constant state of fulfillment.
Even if you are perceiving yourself now As imperfect in many ways,
It still belongs to the perfect process.
Because you chose to experience that process of self-development,
Of self-mastery.
So yeah,
It is all perfect.
It is all your own adventure.
For your highest joy.
So enjoy and see you in the next sharings and guided meditations.
Take care and much blessings.
