You tell yourself to get yourself together, but to whom? I think I know the answer to that question. The truth is that whether we admit it or not, we often keep our inner world and our external world separated, especially our subconscious.
Ask yourself these questions and see if you can relate.If you said your inner world and your external world are different and always on different timetables, then you are likely correct.
The truth is that there is a lack of unity between our inner and our outer reality.
Have you tried taking a different route somewhere but wondered why none of your destination places appeared on your map?
Do you find it hard to relax when there are things to do and people to meet?
Do you wish you could relax when there are people around?
If so, you are in fact not friendly towards your inner, because you are not friendly with your inner world. We may as well live on the outcomes of the outer. The world outside may be seen as filled with such and such fields, people and places, yet our inner world is only accessed when we are on the inner journey.
For example, you may be very friendly to the outside world, even though your inner world remains quite lonely.
Or, you may truly think and express your inner secrets to advantage and gain sailing into antiquity.
People stories and history are full of such examples of the inner world being basically ignored or not even taken seriously, while the outer world continues to prosper.
Many people and cultures venerate such things as the Sun, Moon, great heights and so on, yet their inner world is little known or understood.
What you believe in the inner world is in fact expanded.
In your learnings and meditation, you begin to know that there are things that are far greater than what your mind can perceive. You begin to feel guidance coming from processes in your inner world.
In truth, you may be feeling a lot of guidance at the moment. Your conscious mind may be in the right place, yet it has the limits and often limits as well to perceive. It is these limitations that you often have to ask yourself if they should also be released from the mind and if so, how? Of course such questions that direct the mind can be quite tricky at first, and so it is worth being patient with yourself, because your search may take a while.
Your intuition and inner world, may be following you as you run along your path, but your conscious mind is not allowing it to release its limitations. In fact all limitations to higher understanding grow from the very things that do not allow you to know. Your focus is on such limitations.
It can be very confusing to have the mind working hard trying to gain understanding, yet he or she is still stuck in the tunnel. There seems to be no way through, to your higher understanding.
Your unconscious mind sends messages clearly, but your conscious mind does not know what to do with them.
The conscious mind can, of course, listen and process information, but from such signals, is still limited by the conscious mind, the conscious mind is the door. From such limited understandings, why would some people and cultures ever venture out, to explore such potentials and potentials?
Our inner world is filled with potentials. We do not have to look outside of ourselves for the answers. What remains within us, silently and unnoticed, is food for the conscious mind.
From within comes the wisdom to heal and transform our own society. From within comes the unshakable accuracy of revealing what serves the whole and does not serve any individual or any issue.
So to bring more light to the inner world and higher consciousness, we tend to draw towards us those who are also willing to look and listen more closely. We make a very good place to feed off of for our own healing consciousness.
Continual turn to self and stay in self until ego non structure pervades consciousness. (Sigmund Freud 1856 – 1939)
