Ever wondered why are we here on this planet, in this country, with this particular family and the work we are doing? Why not some other planet, country or family? There is a certain understanding that we are here to fulfil a certain task we assigned ourselves before wearing this particular body. Even if you discount the body story, never mind, you agree to the ‘Purpose’ or ‘Task’ even if that is to enjoy the earthly pleasures. All the ingredients are given, what we make out of them is upon our ability and motivation. That is what encapsulates a wholesome life well lived.
The next evident question is to live a life to your highest potential are you operating from the next level mindset? If not, then have you considered why? Here is a big one- we are infinitely talented human beings, considering we are humans and have a gift of being free. In this body and mind we have free will, that is one of the most important feature which differentiates us from animals and plants. This gives us abysmal innate ability to create our future, destiny or whatever else you might want to call it.
Creation of your future is the power of choice which is surprisingly available to everyone at all times. What slows down this process is the baggage of weaknesses collected over a period of time; called samskaras in Sanskrit. These are limitations passed on through various life times and if you don’t believe in re-incarnation then consider these as self-limiting beliefs handed down from the current life during childhood conditioning or socio-economic-religious-educational beliefs. Been around for generations these are rooted in archaic past, lost relevance and act as invisible walls between you and your potential. The barriers you assume to exist but merely are assumptions without any truth behind them.
How many times have you encountered fear? Did you bring it in this world or it already existed from the ‘Hunting-gathering’ times? Humanity has progressed in fields other than that of fear, guilt, shame and the likes. The weaknesses that you choose to ignore, don’t want to think about or are not aware off are the slow-motion buttons in the movie called life.
The idea here is not to focus on past or weaknesses. The intention is to become aware of the hurdles slowing down the growth and do something about it in case you desire full throttle potential. Awareness itself breaks down the narrow walls of fear and opens up infinite ways to move faster towards the desired outcome.
What will it take for you to break away from antiquated beliefs or patterns rooted in the past irrelevant in today’s context? What will it take for humanity to jump over conventional thinking and breakthrough into futuristic possibilities? It’s been long that we have been stuck in the past called experience for the sake of control kept in check by the power-hungry insecure people. Look around, you will recognise them.
Our race needs to keep pace with the speed we are creating technology. And I am talking about thoughts, words and actions. The technology will have a better of us if we don’t change our mindset and emotions as that’s something the tech does not have. So, bring down the walls of assumptions that don’t serve you. Tear the beliefs which you never created in the first place.
There is immense power in the light and the best part is it’s available to each one of us. Old belief system works as a cemented body suit that does not let the light of pass through. Break it down. Let the light in.
