Whose Running Your Relationships?
Taking a closer look at becoming aware of the foundation for your relationships. Are your relationships concious and authentic on both your side and that of the partner(s) you are choosing? Or is ego (thoughts/mind/persona) determining the state of your relationships? Discover how to become aware of your thoughts and how they are generated by the ego. Begin creating relationships from your heart and consciousness and experience true love versus believing your thoughts and allowing your ego to rake over your relationships and your life. True love, true relationships, our hearts desire cannot be found withing the that of the ego mind, it cannot exist there. It resides beyond cognitive mind in our consciousness, our true awareness. Most of us do not realize this because we have been raised in a world brainwashed by ego(s). This ego trapped can only be escaped one person at a time through his or her own awareness. so I invite you to join me in relationship awareness now.
Who is running your relationships? Take a closer look, closer. Reading this, you may be asking yourself this question with regards to you or your partner. But think again. How would you respond if it was suggested to you that chances are, neither you or your partner are actually calling the shots in your relationship? Let's take it a step farther in presenting the notion that you and your partner are not even truly the ones sharing YOUR relationship at all! What do you think of that? Preposterous? Ridiculous? How about absurd?
If you are like most people raised in modern day western society, it is very likely that you are shaking your head, rolling your eyes and repeating something similar to the nonsense words above. But if you are a person waking from the dream of ego you will understand precisely where we are heading with this.
You cannot be aware of that which you are not aware of, right? So do not deny it until you try it. If this is an entirely new concept to you, consider giving it a go, at least long enough to disprove it or come up with a dramatic excuse your ego will be most willing to supply, if you are resisting the idea. After all, what harm can it do to give it a chance, right? Chances are what you have been trying isn't working or you wouldn't still be reading with us. Most likely you sense the potential to discover something new and enlightening here or you would have tossed this aside already. If you're closed off to the idea of awareness it is only you and your personal chances for growth, change and love that you are hindering. So let's move into discussing who is truly running your relationships and who it is that is actually having the relationships you believe to be yours.
So, who is actually having the relationship you believe to be yours? And who are you having it with? Most of us are under the false impression that we are our persona's. Because we believe our thoughts and seldom separate ourselves from them we are subject to the whims and control of our ego, and to other peoples' egos as well for that matter. When ego is in-charge (true of most of us, most of the time) there is little space or opportunity for your awareness, the true self, true consciousness to emerge and participate at all in life let alone live authentically and enjoy it. Most of us were unintentionally raised by ego to live according to ego and persona instead of living in accordance with who we truly are, our awareness.
Escape from the ego prison is rare and challenging, because ego counteracts awareness and awareness is the essence of who we are. As long as ego is ruling the roost, it keeps you hypothesized and believing everything it feeds you, every thought, every emotion, every belief, judgment and fear, you name it and ego will use it against your consciousness in order to remain in control. Do you honestly want your life and relationships completely controlled by aspects of yourself and others that neither of you are even conscious of? That's like handing your free will over to self-serving shadows who secretly trick you into being their slave.
This isn't to say that ego is "bad". It is quite necessary for our fight or flight survival. When it comes to defending and protecting ourselves and others, and when safety and life and death are at stake it is a vital component to being human.. But it is there as a tool like our mind and cognitive thought. These are important for our consciousness to utilize but NOT the aspects of our human form that will to lead us to love, peace, joy and fulfillment. On the contrary, allow the ego to run your life and life will be a painful and frustrating journey of suffering and struggle, full of temporary relief without transformation until you awaken to awareness....which means awakening from the ego dream, or nightmare rather.
So, what do you say? Would you like to begin discovering how to awaken from your ego dream? Do you want to know what it's like to truly feel alive? To see and hear for the first time? Are you interested in genuinely feeling from your being and responding sincerely without the falsified persona clouding the experience? How would you like to know what it's like to truly love and be loved? Can you even imagine what life would be like to truly share with someone? Not your ego and their ego but authentic self to authentic-self, free of the iron clad doors of the ego and protection mechanisms of persona? What would it be like to really KNOW another and share love in its fullest without the fear of things not working out, them leaving you, lies and distrust that are all poisons from the shadows of egos?
Are you brave enough to embark upon an inner adventure that will, without a doubt transform your reality and your relationships? Are true love, authentic connections and awakening to your true and eternal self worth it to you to give these ideas a chance? Or is it just too much trouble? Perhaps you are too comfy and enjoying the false and temporary sense of security that ego temps you with. The Choice is yours. It always has been and always will be. Your choices are powerful.
Would you like to realize how powerful your choices are? If your answer is yes! Congratulations! You have made a tremendously powerful choice by taking the first step! Acceptance! Yes, that's right, acceptance! Sounds much too simple, doesn't it? One cannot awaken from the ego nightmare until he or she accepts the possibility that he or she is asleep. This realization alone is an alert to the ego that you have seen a glimmer of light, that is the awareness within you, that is you.
No matter how vast the darkness, where there is even a glimmer of light, darkness is dissipated by light. Where there is light, there is warmth. Love is warmth and light. With denial and fear comes darkness. Awareness is pure light, the light of consciousness. Continue a pursuit of awareness and darkness fades away as your light of consciousness illuminates your path. We make it so difficult, such a struggle, so hopeless and yet, that is all the grand illusion constructed by ego. It is all much simpler than you may believe. But let's just begin with acceptance and realization of the ego dream, for the next step will be the awakening. This is the beginning of transforming your relationships, your love relationships and your relationship with yourself and the world!
