Don't Force Anything
When it comes to spiritual awakening and the beginning of the awareness of the
deeper world within, it is very important not to force anything.
As in the quote above, it happens naturally to all living creatures. The one who
wants to force their spirituality to come forth, is using an attitude of aggression
and not of peace. We are all 'natural beings' like the forest and the animals
and the insects, but we have intellect and choice and an ego-mind!
Sitting in meditation or quiet contemplation is following the calling of the natural
flow of life within, and outside of ourself. There is a flow to life and anything that
is forced out of aggression, impatience, or ego is going against this flow........
Sitting and watching the clouds float past......how effortless they look as they go
with the flow of the breeze. How beautiful the sun looks when it rises over the
ocean in its natural way of following the flow of life.
Upon rising each morning, we can go gently through our day by being aware
of each moment. When residing in each moment, we can then be aware of
our natural flow and correct any negative thoughts or self-talk.
Negative energy of any kind interrupts our natural flow and takes us away from
the present moment, where we have self-control.
