Attaching To High Consciousness

[Max_V]

I've found that whenever I'm not mindful or feeling at peace, this guilty and dirty feeling comes up. What came to me was that apparently I've associated being conscious or always feeling peaceful into my identity,.

So all in all, be careful on the path with attaching to high consciousness. When I think of my "self" at the moment, I think of a me as the conscious person in the family, and the person that is doing good. Ofcourse, when I cannot live up to that, I suffer. So I will be working hard to detach myself from this perspective on who I think I am. It will take a while but I believe that when I get far with this, more peace will be upon me.

I think it also has to do with deep negative beliefs that are so rooted into the subconscious mind that you're not even conscious of them, but you feel all the negative emotions it brings. Will take a lot of work to resurface and work through most of them.

Finding the dynamic balance in personal development is critical.  You don't want to cling to any ideology.  To get the picture right takes quite a bit of exposure to theory, and then you gotta make sense of it yourself and apply it to your life.  Then you feel qualified to advise others based only on that experience.  So, I have a perspective that works for me.  But it's not the only perspective.  It may or may not resonate with you.

Try to see what there's in the now and don't impose ideas about anything. Just search for Direct Experience. And trust your intuition.
