Higher Self

It keeps coming to me, this message: We are all capable of higher consciousness; greater awareness.
I think about people in my life and sometimes (many times) I judge, automatically. This is my smaller self, and it separates. In that moment, I choose to be aware. I see that I am judging, that I am listening to my ego, and I have a choice now. I can let that judgment go and choose to see deeper into that person, or into those people. Then I see that there is something much more than what I would judge, I see that we are all seeking love. When I am willing to give love instead of judgment, even if it just in thought, something beautiful happens, and I feel awakened. Suddenly, I am aware that our essence seeks to unite, and when I am willing to be in unity with others I feel more aligned with something far greater than I alone. And not just other human beings, but every living being. I feel a part of, and the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. Higher consciousness.
The real truth is, I don't know. Of myself, I can do nothing. I need be in harmony with what is greater than the whole to be in harmony with all that is. And, surrender is the only way. I have come to find that the great journey from our heads to our hearts is perhaps the longest we will ever embark on, and it is a daily journey, happening only right now.
The head, our ego, is our smaller self, and it wants to separate and isolate, and create fear. It operates on the past and the future, which do not even exist. So it is unreal, yet we give it power by listening to it and allowing it to be our guide.
The heart, our higher self, wants to unite and come together, and to love. It operates in the now, which is the only time that truly exists, and is real. It is so much easier to be in the heart, where this beautiful harmony is, yet many of us have chosen for so long, perhaps through agreement, to listen that smaller self that it becomes automatic, and we just simply believe the illusion that it perpetuates.
When we come together in ways that nurture this higher Self, we access something far greater than our individual self, and this is what I feel this sweet message coming to me may mean. Either way, when it comes, I am grateful for it.
I have practiced being in my head for too many years, and today I choose to be in my heart, in harmony with the Great Spirit, and with you.

Love, and Gratitude.

Namaste
