It is quite frustrating when everyone around you knows what they are here to do and why. Sometimes it seems like everyone knows their purpose here except you. I keep questioning myself why do these people think they know what they want from life and how they can have it? Or how they are so clear about what they want from their life. I mean I’m not even sure about what I want to eat tonight then how do they know so much?
But as life goes on I have started to realize that nobody knows anything at all. They just pretend that they know until life hits something new at them. It’s the identity or the egoic mind that thinks that it knows everything. It sounds pretty interesting and frustrating at the same time. Because there are days when I want to know what I’m supposed to do, only to realize later that it was egoic mind’s play.
Mind’s play to know what to do
The mind wants to know everything so that it can predict the worst-case scenario and take measures to protect itself from it. It will imagine scenarios, making the mind and body feel threatened which ultimately makes the body feel it’s having the biggest scare of its life. All of this occurs because the mind can’t predict its environment.
Now this situation can become a game changer if you can learn how to calm the body down instead of overthinking about your situation. The fun fact is that the more you think, the more confused you get. Also, it is the thinking that disconnects us from the divine flow. So let’s understand how to stop thinking and allow divine guidance to flow through you.
How to allow the divine to flow through you?
When we are in our head we feel survival emotions like fear, anger, shame, guilt, etc. These base emotions disconnect us from our true state of being. But when we raise our vibration and start to feel emotions like joy, wholeness, love, etc we connect ourselves to divine guidance again.
The most important step to allow divine guidance to flow through you is by emptying yourself. When you are in your head, you are full of yourself. Divine guidance cannot flow freely if you’re in your head or always analyzing. To allow divine flow through you, you need to return your attention to your heart center and from there accept whatever thought or emotion arises.
The reason why you’re confused or don’t know what to do is because you have disconnected from your heart. Your heart is your personal atlas on this journey. Thus you need your heart’s intelligence. When you move your attention to your heart, you strengthen your heart’s energy. The more energy you have in your heart, the more connected you are with the divine.
It will be like music playing in your heart guiding you toward the right path. And whenever that urge to do something arises, become present with it. Accept it wholly. It will take a lot of reminders to return your attention to your heart but each time you do that, you come one step closer to divine.
I would like to remind you that if in this process you feel any discomfort or pain ( mental and emotional) then you’re on the right path. Because this pain is going to fuel your spiritual process and deepen your practice.
