This is step 2 in my four-step online program.
In this program, I guide you toward realizing your true self. The true self is who you are beyond the ego identity. It is your essence within.
We all take on conditioning from the collective, such as thoughts, beliefs, cultural standards, traumas, and viewpoints from our culture, family, friends, and school systems. And, combined with the personal experiences we have in our lives, they become part of who we believe ourselves to be and how we see the world.
This conditioning is what I refer to as the ego identity. It is not who we are but who we believe ourselves to be before we awaken spiritually.
Unfortunately, the ego and the thought patterns, emotional reactions, world views, and old perceptions that are part of that identity often cover up the true self. So, in this program, I guide you to go beyond the noise of the mind.
In step two, we focus on your true self and who you really are beyond the ego and the individual and cultural conditioning. This step contains practices where I guide you toward experiencing who you are beyond the conditioning.
At first, you may experience your true self as a stillness behind your thoughts and feelings. That is a first glimpse of what is possible, and in time, it can lead to a full realization of who you are.
If you fully realize who you are, that is called self-realization, and it is the end of identifying with the ego identity. Self-realization means a full realization of the true self, the full realization of, and embodiment of, who you are at the core, your soul, your inner essence. It is a shift in consciousness that happens instantly, and the realization is irreversible.
But between the first experiences of the true self and the full realization of who you are, there are also things that you can do to open up more to who you are and prepare for this inner shift to happen.**
You will learn more in this program.
**Self-realization can happen at any stage of the process. But we can’t force or make it happen; if it happens, it’s grace. But even if it doesn’t, you will benefit significantly from the inner work you do in the programs. The more conditioning you remove, the more your true self can shine through.
