A New Year Resolution That Honors Your Spirit: Break Free From Your Ego – from Alan Watts

BREAK FREE FROM YOUR EGO

Alan Watts argues with equal parts conviction and compassion that “the prevalent sensation of oneself as a separate ego enclosed in a bag of skin is a hallucination which accords neither with Western science, nor with experimental philosophy-religions of the East.” He explores the cause and cure of that illusion in a way that flows from profound unease as we confront our cultural conditioning into a deep sense of lightness as we surrender to the comforting mystery and interconnectedness of the universe.  At the heart of the human condition, Watts argues, is a core illusion that fuels our deep-seated sense of loneliness the more we subscribe to the myth of the sole ego, one reflected in the most basic language we use to make sense of the world.  Watts writes:

 

“We suffer from a hallucination, from a false and distorted sensation of our own existence as living organisms.  Most of us have the sensation that ‘I myself’ is a separate center of feeling and action, living inside and bounded by the physical body — a center which ‘confronts’ an ‘external’ world of people and things, making contact through the senses with a universe both alien and strange.  Everyday figures of speech reflect this illusion.  ‘I came into this world.’ ‘You must face reality.’ ‘The conquest of nature.’

“This feeling of being lonely and very temporary visitors in the universe is in flat contradiction to everything known about man (and all other living organisms) in the sciences.  We do not ‘come into’ this world; we come out of it, as leaves from a tree.  As the ocean ‘waves,’ the universe ‘peoples.’  Every individual is an express of the whole realm of nature, a unique action of the total universe.  This fact is rarely, if ever, experienced by most individuals.  Even those who know it to be true in theory do not sense or feel it, but continue to be aware of themselves as isolated ‘egos’ inside bags of ‘skin’.”

waste

As the year comes to a close, it’s a good time to look back on the year and see what we can change going into the coming year. Whatever wasn’t working for us this year, we can close the door on, and open the door to the new year with a clean slate.

What do you want to change in the coming year?

Get Extreme Clairvoyance Abilities (See the Future) Psychic Subliminal Binaural Beat Meditation – YouTube

Clairvoyance is the ability to summon images of the past or present events, related with an object, person and event. This test is not intended to detect that particular type of clairvoyance, but it allows, with a great degree of probability, to reveal the hidden possibilities of your own self, inborn capacity for clairvoyance which may be developed into a usable clairvoyance ability.

If you can predict the future, you may want to keep your clairvoyant powers to yourself. Otherwise everyone will be knocking down your door asking for the next winning lotto numbers.
A clairvoyant individual is believed to possess psychic abilities or a higher level of insight than other humans who can only use the regular old five senses.

Clairvoyance is an enhanced development of our natural ‘sixth sense’, which is our ability to know things even when they are not obvious and to understand things we have never learned.

Literally, Clairvoyance means ‘clear seeing’.  It is the ability to see things with full perspective, which includes the past, present and the potential future. Energy fields, called Auras, which surround objects and people, can also be seen and interpreted using this ability.

In truth, this ‘seeing’ is really an awareness of thoughts, feelings and alternate dimensions of reality – movements of energy that are very real, but invisible to the human eye. This awareness is then translated through the physical senses (touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing) of a Clairvoyant.

Each Clairvoyant will use one or more of these physical senses to channel their awareness through. The more developed the Clairvoyant, the more senses they will use. The best way for a Clairvoyant to develop their psychic gift is to develop these ‘real’ senses or simply to keep growing and learning on a down to earth human level.

There is also a higher form of Clairvoyance which seems to transcend everything and allows all six senses to merge into one whole sense of ‘knowing’.

Enjoy!

Kundalini Yoga Meditation: Ang Sang Wahe Guru

To alleviate feelings of alone-ness … chant ANG SANG WAHE GURU
 
“The dynamic, loving energy of the Infinite Source of All is dancing within my every cell, and is present in my every limb. My individual consciousness merges with the Universal consciousness.”
— Translation of Ang Sang Wahe Guru, Written by Guru Amar Das
 
Chanting the mantra “Ang Sang Wahe Guru” celebrates the realization that there is no piece or part of ourselves, no action, and no life that is not already the living vibration of the Infinite. It is all God. We are one.
 
This mantra can be used to eliminate haunting thoughts, bring peace when there is emotional imbalance, and to counter the phobias and depression that can happen in times of war. “Ang Sang Wahe Guru” is also an expression of deep gratitude, reminding us of our larger connection with the Universe and allowing us to step outside of our limited thought patterns. Listen to it, recite it, sing it – allow it to permeate your being with profound inner peace.
