Life isnt just about bliss or being spiritually high

8 posts in this topic

I had this realization recently after some feelings of pure joy and then followed by pitfalls of “dark nights of the soul” 

for about a year and a half I would hold onto those feelings of bliss or timelessness. Emptiness or heart filled sensations or third eye or crown chakra openings. I finally got it though. I am powerless. Things are happening and all I can do is surrender deeper. Even the word surrender isnt anywhere close to the meaning because even that is just happening. Life isnt here for utter bliss or even utter suffering. I start experiencing these new feelings and its like I want to freeze myself in place and stay in that state forever, but thankfully that did not happen. Even the suffering has its place. Even the moments of doubt and the pain. Its all life. Its amazing. Its happening. Maybe tomorrow Ill feel differently. Thats part of it. Thats amazing in itself! 
 

I was chasing Awakening but The point of life isnt to awaken. Im open to it. Im open to awakening if it happens. But Ill also love whatever else comes at me. I have no choice after all. (Choice and no choice arent totally true either)

The mind thoughts were chasing awakening.

Awakening is when the identification AS these thoughts ends. ❤

Who would have thought that the point of life was to experience life.

The teachers that talk about never coming back to a "normal" life are full of shit xD

Of course you do, why would you incarnate yourself into an uncouscious being in the first place if the sole point of life was to not live life anymore ? xD


God is love

Whoever lives in love lives in God

And God in them
