Story # 301 in the Awakening Series

Written by Bill Pautler



                If you wish to know God, you must know yourself.... the innermost being of man is the real being of God...and until he knows this he has not realized his true purpose.

Remembering Who We Are

 

Last week's story was the introduction to the Awakening Series.   In that introductory story I told you the purpose of awakening.   The purpose of awakening is to live a life congruent with your purpose and when you do, you will be able to stay in a state of deep joy and peace that surpasses all understanding.

When you truly become awakened, you can drop into the harmony of the Divine flow, and you will be able to recognize this life as a heavenly realm.   

This is not a hard thing to accomplish, but it does not mean that it is easy either.   It is not unlike any other skillset.    A master craftsman of any type, whether it is a long-distance runner, a sculptor, a statesman, or a healer practices their craft until they attain mastery.  When we observe them practicing their craft, their brushstroke or their words seem to have a natural flow.

The same is true of the awakened master.    The awakened master has trained their mind, to know the mind of God.  

So here is the first step in becoming an awakened being:

Remembering that we are God !!!

We have been told by our religions, our cultures, our upbringings to think that God is outside of us.    That God is some great being in the sky, that reigns judgement down upon us at death.   That we are sinful creatures, that we need forgiveness.    That we are lowly creatures trying to work our way toward salvation, toward becoming more God-like.

Nothing could be further from the truth.    All this groveling that society has heaped on us is just false.  

Yes, we do things that are unloving, but we only do those things because we have taken our focus off of who we really are.   We have forgotten that we are really gods!

So how do we remember that we are gods?

It is just a simple shift in mindset.   God is consciousness.   The definition of consciousness is:  being aware of one’s self and one’s surroundings.   God is the Ultimate Consciousness.   God is the Original Consciousness.   But God created us out of Her Consciousness.   

You know when you die, your body returns back to the dust of the earth.   But your consciousness stays alive.    Right now, you can focus your mind and remember a particular joyous moment in your life.   Or a particularly painful moment.   Or the sensual kiss of your partner.   Your mind, your consciousness, can travel wherever you direct it.

That is all God consciousness.   

So, the first step in awakening is to simply remember that it is God consciousness that animates you.    When you train your focus on the powerful God consciousness that you are, you will begin to realize all the things society has told you are true, are not really true.   Your false identity will fall away.    You will step into the Powerful God Consciousness that you are.

You put yourself in this realm we call Earth, to experience certain aspects of consciousness that can only be experienced in this realm.   

Think of the beauty of water, color, nature, sunrises, sunsets, waves crashing, clouds, rain, gratitude, romantic love, sorrow, caring, joy, pain, agony, defeat, striving, peace, music, sound.

Just stop for a couple moments and think about all you are capable of experiencing in this realm.   

You are God in a human body.  You chose to come here!   You chose to come here for this experience.   Where you can feel the extremes of life.   From great joy, to great sensual pleasure, to deep agonizing pain.   

Your eternal spirit, your eternal god, is just here for a lifetime.    You have all of eternity to experience many things.

This simulation, this incarnation, is a unique experience.   It is not for the faint of heart.   But it was and is a conscious choice you made.   A choice you made to experience the depths of your consciousness in union with all of us.    In union with your family and friends.

If this simulation wasn’t so real, we couldn’t have this experience.    

But once our mindset embraces that we are gods, choosing to have a ‘human’ experience in this realm called ‘earth’, we shift from being merely observers of life and become participants in the Divine Flow.

We move from reactive to active.    We move from having the baseball thrown at us, to using the bat to change the direction and velocity of the ball.   

We become the active participants in the harmonic creation of the universe and the harmonic creation of our lives.   

Train your mind!  Train your mind that you are the creator of your life!   That you are animated by God consciousness, therefore you are God consciousness.  

Therefore you are God.   Therefore we are God.

 

Much love to you all.   Let’s set ourselves free.   Let’s be childlike and go play in this sandbox.   Why not pick fun, peace and joy each day?   They are available to us.

Live a SageLife.   Be a SAGE.
