Do You Need To Evolve & Grow?
Evolving may take a lot less effort than you realise. We often run
around following the latest spiritual fads or doing courses for the
purpose of evolving faster, but
did you realise that each of us is
already very far evolved,
sometimes
we just need to realise it? What if I was to tell you that all of our
answers are already there inside us? We seek outside of ourself
endlessly
but really we just need to sit quietly and look inside for the answers.
We can never be left behind. How can this be?
As humans, we each have our own Soul. And this soul,
whilst a
part of us, is also watching over us from another realm or dimension.
Our own soul is already quite evolved, yet it seems to be part of human
nature that we keep looking for answers from other sources or people, rather than relying on the best source - US.
In the past Piscean Age, we looked continuously outside of
ourself for the lessons and knowledge we needed, yet in this new age we
only have to look inside at what is already within us. This is not to say that courses, workshops
and books won't help us for they surely will. But no longer do we have
to have a
physical teacher who
we must follow or even worship. We don't need a guru anymore, which was
appropriate in the past Piscean Age. In the new Aquarian Age, its much more appropriate to learn our lessons by looking
inside ourself and then decide which teachers we may follow from time to time. We no
longer need just the one Guru and we have much more freedom to
follow our needs and hearts.
Think of yourself as a big box and you are constantly unwrapping
yourself and discovering new layers, deeper understandings, and
revelations. No one else can show you these because they are YOUR
layers which are within you. But others can point out what they might
be, or how you might get there. It's like constantly opening a present;
what fun!
Sometimes our inner revelations are big and sometimes they're just small.
Sometimes we may not have revelations at all for a time as we get on with
life. Nor can we force them to occur because spiritual insight or revelation has to unfold
in the right timing. But we can keep our eyes open and keep reading
uplifting or spiritual writings.
The 5 Elements Of Self-Evolvement
Following is a list of 5 elements that can help us evolve. We no
longer need to travel to India, follow a guru,
join an ashram, live in a monastery, or give up aesthetic things like
food in order
to reach a spiritual knowing. Those of us who live in the West no
longer need to take specific trials, and yet we can now still reach a
very spiritual
place. We are ascending, or raising our vibration, and it's never been
easier. Here are a few pointers on what you will
need to make this Ascension easier.
1. Peace
Existing peaceably in
our life is essential for our evolvement, for without peace, we have
constant drama which is like a wheel that keeps going round and round.
We have to reach a peaceful state in our overall life in order to
evolve spiritually.
Do we
need to have peace in the entire world? For our
individual evolvement
we don't,
although undoubtedly we would prefer it. For the entire world to become
peaceful we need to work on our own peace first. We may want to finish
off with
relationships that no longer serve us, instead only inhabiting pleasant
relationships with those who support us (and we them). We can find
peace in our home life and hopefully our work place. We cultivate our
peace inside us.
2. Knowledge
Spiritual knowledge is the basic for our evolvement, i.e. are you on a spiritual path or have
you found God, angels or your own Higher Self? It is through reading
that we get most of our knowledge, for example Buddhist readings,
learning about Christ, or simply reading channeled messages, just to
name a few. The knowledge we attain needs to be based in love and
reality. For example, it is no good reading about war because war is
never based in true reality. It is usually a means for one side to make
a profit, and is based on principals that are not truth. So then, it is
knowing about love and truth that set us up for our further evolvement.
3. Time
Time is an amazing resource when we have it, for with time we can
think, we can
begin to wake up, or we can help others. When we are time poor, we can
barely
get through our day feeling sane since we're so stretched. We do
not need a lot of time, but we need a little space just for us so we
can think and sort ourself out. It is through 'not doing' that we reach
peace as well, or have time for spiritual reading. Time is very
important when we step onto a path of evolvement, especially at the
start of our journey, to set us up with a solid and strong foundation.
4. Looking Inside - At Our Wisdom
This is one of my favorites, looking inside. You may not realise what
is in there but we each have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom inside
us. The current world, as it is now, doesn't call on us to
have wisdom, but just because we haven't used it before doesn't
mean we don't have it. What kinds of amazing lessons have you already
learned whilst growing up? You can even make a list and write them down
to see for yourself that what you have already is quite impressive.
Have you learned how to stand up for yourself, peaceably? Perhaps
you've become a master at letting go of people who always want to cause
conflict, realising this isn't what you want. Maybe you're great at
helping others release their conflicts, or helping by standing up
for others, being an advocate. Being on earth right now means learning
many thinks, like discernment. As we grow, we become more and more
discerning as to what is right
and wrong, who to believe and not believe. Whether it is considering
people in the public, in government, locally or in our lives, we are
growing more able to see more about people than we could in the past.
At every turn we find ourself full of wisdom. Take the time to look at
what you already know.
5. Never Discount 'Just BEING'
I'm showing my Buddhist roots but as anyone in
the New Age knows, we already ARE evolved. Sometimes we just have
to remember we don't
need to become, we just need to be what we already know we are. Slow down, center yourself, learn to relax, and
see if you can find what you were always looking for within. We already
have all we need inside if we look, we just forget it sometimes.
It's funny how many people are obsessed in
proving to others how spiritual
they are. They collect courses, workshops and books so that they can
show what they have done, forgetting that it's the 'being' that
counts. What about those teachers who are forever teaching about love
but don't practice it in real life? (Yes, I've known some of these).
Then there are those who become obsessed in the money side of
Spirituality, and lose their way in making a buck. Well we all know how
easy that can be.
Sometimes it is coming back to the most simple aspects. Some people
look at my website and think I must be a great teacher and then wish
they too could do something like that. But why? I'm obsessed with writing
(always have been) but it doesn't change who I am.
I am you.
I'm not on any other
"level" and neither is anyone else; we're all equal. We already have
everything we need, including the love, right inside of us. We don't
need to search around for it outside of us when it's right there all
along,
quite within reach. Do don't have to try to endlessly evolve, you don't
have to TRY at all. You just have to relax in the love
you already have, the forgiveness you already are; you just have to
let it out.
This is our journey and yes, we all forget it at times. We are already
there, we are just endlessly unfolding. Forget the distractions
and remind yourself, you can't be any other way for you
already are made of Spirit. Relax.
I hope this is a reminder of how much you have already evolved.
