Since childhood, we’ve been programmed to identify only with our body, our name, and the idea of being separate from others. This creates a bubble of “me versus the world,” leading to unconscious choices, fear, and unaligned desires. In this talk, we explore how to break free from that conditioning and remember your true nature — unity with all that is. By seeing yourself everywhere, you shift from living in a personal bubble to aligning with the collective, with God’s will, with life itself. When you release the false center and see yourself everywhere, life flows. Challenges become joyful like levels in a video game, desires feel aligned with the collective, and your service to the world becomes your natural state of being.

So we all have identified ourselves with this body.

This is how we were programmed since childhood.

We were told our name and we were taught to distinguish between objects.

This is called this,

This is called that,

This is mommy,

This is daddy and this is your name and whenever somebody calls your name you are alert and you listen to them.

So nothing wrong with that but there's a side effect that comes with it which is that since childhood we are programmed for a sense of separation.

A sense of me and not me.

That this is me and everything or everyone is separate from me.

And then what it does is that it gives us room to make unaware,

Unintelligent,

Unloving,

Sometimes,

Choices that we are not aware of.

We live in our small separate bubble and then especially as a child when we don't know about our true nature we start to develop some tendencies,

Some ways to be selfish,

Some ways to only think about ourselves,

Be the center of the world and stay separate from others.

Not all children develop that programming but it is normal because nobody is teaching you about the unity of all things.

So you develop that sense of separateness and yeah anything can come up from there.

You could act like an unaware,

Immature person and then you can continue to act that way up until your adult life.

If you're not aware,

If you don't break that pattern,

The unaware childhood choices that you made are still with you but those were not conscious choices.

So even though yes it is important to connect with that inner child of yours to to remember it,

To heal it and to invoke the good qualities of that but all the rest,

The programming that came with it we don't need to carry anymore.

And that goes also along with the sense that you were unloved maybe sometimes or that your needs were not met.

So we develop that trauma that I need to be loved by others and so we seek approval a lot or that we fear our needs will not be met.

So we are always constantly in fear,

Lack or that you needed to prove yourself so much to your parents so you always felt unworthy,

Unloved.

So now you're still with it.

So how to let go of those side effects?

How to come back to our pure being?

By seeing yourself everywhere.

So not only when you are thinking about yourself as this personality,

As this person but imagine that you are everywhere and everything is the center of the universe not just you as a person but the whole world revolves around itself and the whole world is you and everyone is you.

In another body.

When you cultivate that practice to remember that then you get out of your own way of your programming and conditioning where you have to think about yourself too much or your conditionings as I talked about before.

Then you simply exist,

You simply radiate,

You simply do your job and that could include of course you will have desires so you will have your own desires as well but that would be part of the whole,

That would be part of the collective not just your personal desire.

So you see like when your personal desires merge with all that is then it's not separate desire it's what others want too whereas when you're living in your own bubble then you may have your separate desires then it's not aligned with the collective or you can say God's desire and that's when you are unaligned in your own separate world.

So nothing wrong with desire but make sure that desire is aligned with the whole,

With the collective,

With God.

So that's why when you let go of your quote-unquote center and become the whole world then the desires will come to you but they will be all completely aligned with others and if anything,

If anything feels like off then you will see that okay wait I must be in my personal bubble to insist upon that desire so much that I'm not tuning into the universe,

I'm not tuning into the world to see if this is an aligned desire.

So it's never ever a problem for you because you see okay I have a desire let me check with the world if it's aligned by acting on it and if it's not working out doesn't mean that you never have to push anything sometimes you not really push but more so you persist but it's a different feeling when you feel off about something that oh it doesn't it's not working it's just the world isn't responding to it that means I must be in my own personal bubble of desire and it's not aligned.

So you let go of that and you ask the world again okay what does the world want through me and you just do that and that's how you start to see yourself everywhere and you do what is truly completely aligned.

You become service to the world by being you and by following what comes to you in the most aligned way possible.

God's will feels completely natural when we are tuned into that.

In the same way you will never feel off or feel unaligned if you simply align with the universe then everything is just perfect.

The world moves through you and any personal sense of self that comes up you will be shown that you're unaligned.

So when you simply release yourself become one with the universe become one with the world and you see yourself everywhere oh this person is just me this person is just me and so everything your thoughts your actions are always in alignment with unity with oneness and so then we don't need to remember the golden rule or any kind of scripture on what you should do or how you should behave.

You don't have to because you are a living God because you remember your true nature which is all that is.

So that is the key to living a fluid life a life that is not a struggle.

Challenges may occur in fact they will occur and you may need to persist through them but that feels completely different that feels actually so aligned when you have a challenge and you just want to do it.

I will give you an example imagine a video game where you really want to get over this challenge and you want to do it because it's part of the game whereas if that is not aligned you just want to quit that video game like okay no I'm done with this I don't want to play this.

So see that's the difference but how does it feel when you're in that challenge if it feels aligned then you will just want to persist you will just want to succeed through it because you know this is for me I just want to do it whereas if it feels that you are just pushing something that is not in alignment then it will feel off to you if you tap into yourself if you ask yourself am I in my personal bubble or am I aligned with all that is then you will have your answer oh it was just for my personal gratification and when you're aligned then not only the universe rewards you with personal gratification because when you do God's work or aligned work you have no choice but to feel fulfilled and in peace and in joy so your service will be aligned with that and on top of that it will be aligned and it will be helping others too so follow your joy but make sure that joy is in alignment with all that is and now it's your discernment to see what is in alignment and what is not the way you do it is by letting go of your personal self and simply merge with all that is see yourself everywhere and you will know what is right and what is not for you what is not your burden nothing should feel like a burden and whatever is given to you will feel like perfect responsibility for yourself you will just know this is for me like I am made for that there's no question about anything else
