A True Path To Enlightenment

A True Path To Enlightenment

This is my personal account of enlightenment. Enlightenment for me is a state of awakened understanding about the universe and how we are part of it. It is to be fully present in yourself and the present moment, and experience ease along with it. In this blog: A true path to Enlightenment we discuss this topic.

Transcend

Enlightenment is to transcend suffering and accept the problems of the mundane world in which we live, for a deeper understanding of the universe and how we are part of it. I believe it is to be freed from the turbulence of the mind, to learn to calm the mind and reside in the true self, the ease and peace within yourself. To experience this deep spiritual peace, presence, and wholeness, and to lie in the truth of universal love. Then, to be enlightened is to be connected to yourself as part of this universe and to everything that surrounds you, to be fully present in the moment, and live with ease and acceptance. 

Consciousness

To be enlightened is to realize that we are not our minds but true consciousness. To be able to change those patterns that are mind-made and disconnect that to be true presence. 

I am personally far away from this state, yet I do my practices to slowly be able to become more present and involved over time. For this reason, I start by getting into meditation, movements, and listening to my body and my breath during the day. I try to find times during my everyday routine in which I can be fully present within myself and follow my breath.

To listen to the silence in between the worlds and the sounds, and silence my mind. This brings me ease and a state of acceptance of my life, which helps me with stress and overcome difficulties. It is for me to believe in this cosmos energy that surrounds us, which is always there yet we have to make the decision to encounter it over time. 

Practicing

By practicing yoga, being present, and understanding this consciousness over the games of the mind, the concept of enlightenment becomes more familiar to me. With it, I learn to listen to myself in different situations, to be the observer, and decide what fits me and what I should let go. 

Enlightenment is also being able to listen to your true self over everything that happens around you and act accordingly to what you truly feel. It is the realization that this inner presence, this consciousness, ease, and connection with the universe is there no matter what. It can serve you accordingly, and only you have the ability to do this for yourself.   

Driven

We all tend unconsciously to put our attention on the external world and get driven by it. To be enlightened is to see that call from the outside and go deep inside yourself with acceptance and as the observer. To overcome the mind and live in a true presence and consciousness state. 

I believe enlightenment is something that cannot be explained with words, yet it is very simple but hard to achieve. It can only be felt over time when you live in the present moment knowing that this is all you have. I do wish to eventually achieve this state of enlightenment with time, practice, and self- consciousness.

In Conclusion

Enlightenment is a profound state of awakened understanding and deep connection with the universe and ourselves. It transcends suffering and allows us to accept the challenges of the mundane world while experiencing a profound sense of ease and peace within. It is the ability to quiet the turbulence of the mind and reside in our true selves, where we find spiritual peace, presence, and wholeness.

To attain enlightenment, we must recognize that we are not our minds but true consciousness. By cultivating practices such as meditation, movement, and mindful awareness throughout our daily lives, we can gradually become more present and connected. Through these practices, we learn to listen to our bodies. And to follow our breath, and find moments of stillness and silence amidst the chaos. This cultivates a state of acceptance and allows us to navigate life.

Enlightenment also entails being attuned to our inner voice and acting in alignment with our true feelings. It means realizing that the power of presence and connection with the universe lies within us.  By becoming the observer and going deep within ourselves, we can overcome the mind’s games and live in a state of true consciousness.

While enlightenment may elude us at times, it is a journey that unfolds gradually through dedicated practice, self-awareness, and a willingness to let go of external distractions. It is not easily explained with words but experienced through living in the present moment and recognizing that it is all we have.
