5D Shift: The Peculiar Sense of No Self – Moving Into Enlightened States

November 13th, 2018

I’ve often heard people say on the path, “I don’t know who I am any more!”  It’s indicative that you’re starting to move beyond the false self ego and into the sense of ‘no self’. It can be pretty scary and unsettling at first, and as it arises, fear might bounce you back into ego again. But there’ll come a point when you realise, everything you thought you were was false and an illusion anyway — and such contracted identity doesn’t serve anymore. This is when absolute freedom beckons. Rather than losing anything, you’re starting to gain the whole Universe.

Come and dive into this immaculate homecoming with me. It’ll be the ride of your life…

Challenging fixed relationships to reality

Take a few moments. Stop what you’re doing. Breathe and settle. Take a look out into the world, what do you see? Objects probably — the things in life that we relate to… the solid things in your room, or in nature; people, friends, family and colleagues perhaps. There is relationship to these things: each carries a ‘value’, a meaning, they have a position in your landscape. But when you have some kind of fixed relationship to these things, then paradoxically, you fix yourself to them, as a point identity source. These are value judgments that then define you in time and space by them.

Over time, this relationship with reality weaves all manner of threads and interconnections, and you become a name, a label, in relation to them… father, mother, sister, brother, friend, colleague. It further fixes and identifies you, in your own psyche.

It’s all an illusion! You’ve fixed yourself in the constantly and shifting space-time continuum. Your soul is not meant to be so tethered, and eventually, the shifting tides of the Universe will pull apart that identity anyway. So why wait? Why suffer? Why not unwind the sense of separated and fixed identity right now?

Sample this Breakthrough Breathing Meditation that helps break down false self ego.

What have you really got to lose?

There often comes a fear with this, “I’ll lose myself”. But really, you only lose the falsehood. In fact as you become so immersed in the all of it, you don’t lose a thing, you only gain. You’re no longer separated from the apple, instead you can taste the fullness of it, as if, in that moment, you are it. Breathe the air and it feels like you become it.

Have you got it yet…? In this world of illusion, all will come and go. It’s all going to dissolve anyway. So why hang on now? It’s time to get ready for the greatest freedom, the greatest ride of your life.

Pause. Be still. Breathe. Take every thought that arises, every feeling and emotion, then trace them back inwards to what precedes them, to the source of them. Touch the emptiness from which they arose. Now look out into the world, and focus on an object — anything, a tree perhaps. Without moving the focus, look at how much you can see in the periphery around the tree — how much of the panorama can you see above, below, left and right? So let your focus expand out to embrace all of it without contracting down. Now walk forwards into this landscape. You start to feel less like a point source, and more like a moving flow of energy. You start to become the movement.

The arising waves of your soul

The freedom of simply becoming present is beckoning in this Great 5D Shift — of progressively letting go of control, unwinding the labels, unpacking the identity, and letting the complete authenticity of your soul emerge. It’s a wave of the moment, which then delivers you all the way back to the welcome shores of the One, inside of you. And when you get there, don’t worry if you now don’t know who you are. Because who you are arises and defines itself in the moment, just like the wave washing up onto the beach, before dissolving again back into the ocean. Although bearing resemblance to each previous one, every wave of experience is totally unique.

And so are the arising waves of your soul, each totally unique, each totally spontaneous in the moment. What liberation, what freedom!

It’s time to become this freedom. To explode the myth of identity. To unleash unbounded liberation of being. Begin it now. Challenge every tether, every limitation, every tightness that fixes you in the illusion. Your immaculate home coming awaits!
