If there is one thing I could tell my younger self, it would be the following. It would save so much heart ache, stress and delay I can’t tell you how much.
I feel it’s possibly very important for you too, that’s why I sat down and tapped this out. So pay attention - yes, you at the back, you too!
I don’t have much more of a story around this, so let’s get started:
My practice of the Bright Path Ishayas Ascension could be seen as a practice of transformation. It’s a practice that allows you to become that great version of you. Any meditation practice worth it’s salt (which, if I’m brutally honest, there are surprisingly few, actually) will do the same.
The fact is that great version of you already exists. Right here, right now.
You ARE it.
A practice such as Ascension takes away the blocks that stops you from being and living that, right now.
It may well transform you in ways you might not even know, but the beauty, the simplicity, the truth is that you are already what you seek.
Stop waiting.
It’ll take courage. It will. I don't care how brave you think you are, this is the real test.
One of the most courageous things you can do is live like there is nothing wrong with you, that you ARE enough, that you need NOTHING else to live the life you’re supposed to.
(and if you do need something? You’ll be shown it, you don’t need to seek it out).
Stop waiting for change. If you can’t change it now, work with what you have. This is it, stop postponing, stop waiting for a better future moment, a better future you.
This is not a practice of becoming, even though you become.
This is a practice of no-holds barred LIVING, because there is no time like the present, because there is no better version of you coming in some better future moment.
Grip the bull by the horns and dance, by the light of the moon if you like poetry, but dance now. Don’t sit on the sidelines, WAITING … OK? Good. Go well!
