shake yourself

In those moments in life when we experience pressure, be it from within or without, we are allowed to experience the opportunities that have been given to us as human beings. And this pressure grips us all. However, we are allowed to experience what is really inside of us and what gifts we have received for our path. A few days ago we had an interim meeting of this year's Kundalini Awakening Training and we were once again able to see that we are all in the same boat. And in line with this, I had received a text from a friend that was/is very valuable during our meeting and also for all of us:

Our greatest fear is not being inadequate. Our greatest fear is that of being infinitely powerful. Our light, not our darkness, frightens us most. We ask ourselves: who am I to be so brilliant? But who are you not to be? – You are a child of God. It doesn't serve the world if you make yourself small. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking yourself just so others don't feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And when we let our light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. When we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

– Nelson Mandela –

Of course, we can now pick up on this from our personality and draw "strength" from it, "yes, I'm strong, great...". But what happens when we feel it within ourselves and discover what it really means? What happens when we realize that the "glory of God" is within us, we are always connected, and we can let that beauty shine? Without fighting, without wanting to prove, without exhausting ourselves for something that is like this today and like that tomorrow.

In deep trust and devotion we can discover that everything that limits, scares, worries, preoccupies us are illusions that are constantly changing, always remain the same or often never come true. But are they real? And no, having that trust isn't always easy. Sometimes we can feel it deeply and how it "comes forth" with a joy that we know to be true. And sometimes we are caught in spinning thoughts, doubts, ... and have the feeling that we are completely overwhelmed. However, it is precisely these moments, situations, emotions, entanglements that are given to us in order to recognize who we really are and how much light we really carry within us!

Even if we can't always look behind it and see what it really means, these challenges are gifts, just like happiness, laughter, dancing, ... are in the other polarity. In these phases, we can practice raising love for what we encounter. Love for ourselves, love for what lies behind, love for life. It's not important to always have in your mind why and how and wherefore. Most of the time it is enough just to feel, to let it be and to embrace from the heart what there is to embrace.

We're allowed to do that! We can hug ourselves! We are allowed to acknowledge ourselves, even if life may not correspond to "our own ideas". We can accept it as it is and gradually bring healing to the areas in us and in our lives that are so urgently needed at the moment. We can dare to do it, open up and say goodbye to the "old days". The planet is showing us very clearly right now – it is cleaning itself up. So it is also time for us to allow it into us and to let the strength, energy and love of Mother Earth into us. Let yourself be supported! Let me help you! We are all one!

With deep love for you and all your being!
