Many of us have been experiencing significant loss, setbacks, and a “stripping away” process in our lives over the past few years. When viewed through the lens of the ego—the false self—these events feel painful and unjust. Yet, when seen through the eyes of your true nature, infinite consciousness, all is well. What’s being taken from you are only your attachments to what isn’t real.
The human ego is deeply attached to the material world because it believes reality is just that: a separate, mortal being living in a physical world. However, in truth, we exist in oneness with all creation. We lack nothing because everything is a part of us. We are the whole.
Part of the beauty of being human is that we fully lose ourselves in the play of duality, deeply believing we are simply human. But the fun fades when life becomes about survival, and we are ruled by deep-seated fears around getting by.
The challenges you’re facing now are here to help you move beyond your beliefs in lack. When our sense of security is rooted in anything from the physical or conceptual realms, it is fragile, prone to collapse. Our only true security lies in knowing who we truly are: beloved children of God, created perfect and given access to everything in God’s Kingdom. We are infinite, made in the image and likeness of our Creator, with free will to explore this universe in any way we choose. Now we find ourselves in a realm of intense duality, with a thick veil obscuring our true identity.
The good news is, we can wake up. We can remember and reclaim our true identity as God Source created us. God does not intervene in our explorations of this universe because doing so would limit us, and God has given us everything.
Lack, limitation, sickness, poverty, and fear—these are constructs. They are concepts we can subscribe to and play within, but they are not the truth. They are based on thought, and we hold the power to unsubscribe from them.
When challenges appear in our reality, we are being invited to remember who we really are. Suffering exists only in thought. When we forget our true nature and become fully identified with being human, we are tossed around by life’s ups and downs, feeling powerless, small, and victimised. But this is not the way we must live. If you’re tired of it—truly tired—you can choose to wake up from the nightmare.
I’ve found that we often choose to awaken only when things have gotten so bad that we’re at our wit’s end. I wish it could be different, and perhaps one day it will be, but for now, the ego’s trance is so strong that we don’t usually find the motivation to wake up until we’re truly done with it.
For me, I tried so hard to play the human game. I tried to fit in. I explored many different ways of living, but they all led to the same place—misery and existential crisis. I was living in the dark, asleep to who I truly am, consumed with making my ego comfortable and happy, thinking that’s where fulfilment lay.
It wasn’t until I truly found God within me that I wanted to be here. The light returned, and I woke up to my eternal nature. I realised that all my suffering was born of my thoughts—that I was the one causing my limitations and nightmare.
The paradox of this realm is that it is inside-out, back-to-front, and upside-down. Everything in true reality—God’s Creation—is the opposite of how we experience life on Earth before we wake up.
True reality is love, peace, joy, abundance, infinity, eternity, beauty, harmony, and perfection. Yet, on Earth, we often experience the opposite. This is difficult because deep down, we remember the truth. We remember where we came from and where we will return. Many of us unconsciously or consciously long for this true home.
When you wake up to your true nature, your life on Earth will transform. It will begin to reflect true reality. It all starts in your mind. You will never find Heaven on Earth unless you find it within. The truth is, Heaven is already here. The New Earth is already here. 5D reality is already here. You access it through the frequency of your consciousness. You’ve probably already glimpsed it in moments of deep stillness or expanded awareness—it’s right under your nose!
So instead of fighting against reality or getting angry with God for everything “going wrong” in your life, lean into the deeper wisdom that everything unfolding is happening for you. It is being designed by your Higher Self to help you wake up. The more you resist, the more you delay what Love is trying to do—wake you up.
We must let go of the ego’s desires and needs, for they are all rooted in fear. They are born of the conditioned, false self. We’ve been programmed to believe that safety, fulfilment, and happiness will come from achieving these desires, but that is a lie.
True safety, fulfilment, and happiness come from being who you really are—opening your heart and mind to God. Who you really are is forever safe, fulfilled, and happy—always. And you can access this truth right now, if you know where to look.
Physical reality is an illusion, a hall of mirrors reflecting back to you the thoughts and beliefs held in your mind. If you want to change your life, you must change your state of consciousness. This is terrible news for the ego, which has been so sure it would find salvation in the world. But the sooner you stop letting your ego run the show and find peace where it truly resides—within—the better.
A great place to start is by inviting more stillness and silence into your life. The most insidious addiction on this planet is the addiction to thinking and the identification with our thoughts. By slowing down and creating moments of stillness and silence throughout your day, you will naturally begin to reveal your true nature, which exists beyond thoughts.
Try it now—just sit for a minute and become very present with your breath, your body’s sensations, the sounds around you. Focus on what’s happening in the moment instead of letting your mind run on autopilot. The more you can cultivate moments like this throughout the day, the sooner you will begin to experience the peace, love, and joy that is your true self.
