Increase your trust with daily meditation.
Ask yourself this: How many times have you quit believing in yourself because of some difficulty? How many times have you quit pursuing your dream because of challenges and the feeling of being overwhelmed by anxiety? How many times have you ignored your emotions and continued with the tasks the next chance you have, locking them in a dark chest within your soul?
But you know what? We’ve all been there, trying to rush through everything, deny the negative experiences and live fast but at the price of our wellbeing. Life is like a river, sometimes there are rapids, sometimes the course is steady and calm. It is essential to embrace the turbulence of those rapids but afterward to go into calmer waters where you must seek peace and serenity in order to continue your journey. You must open your heart to all those difficult insecure emotions, accept them as a natural part of life and find the peace within before embarking on a new quest.
How do you accept those emotions? How do you find the light at the end of the dark tunnel? When we seek for the light grace, we seek enlightenment in a spiritual way, an awakening. You cannot get out of the dark if you don’t know the environment, it can lead to a dead-end countless times. You need to get acquainted with it. The darkness doesn’t mean something evil, it means a state with an absence of light, so in order to shed a light you must first embrace it and pave your way towards your awakening.
That is where meditation comes as a spiritual torch. Meditation gives you the ability to silently and calmly accept what comes your way, giving you the wisdom of not seeking an immediate solution. It is the art of being able to truly see yourself, to be quiet with yourself, to be honest with yourself. It is the state of being true to your emotions without having to put a mask on the rest of the world. Meditation is a sanctuary for your soul, a safe place.
Now imagine meditating every day, getting to know yourself more and more, gaining a spiritual discipline... to be still and face the honest being of the present self. Even if you have difficulties with meditating, the key aspect is the willingness to do so. In time, that willingness to encounter yourself will lead you to enlightenment. At times reaching a meditative state will be more difficult and maybe face a dark grace, other times light and warm as sunlight on a cold winter day. What is important is when you meditate you gain trust in whatever life presents in front of you. It is the spiritual art of accepting that is a natural course and that you are exactly where you are meant to be. Only if you become comfortable being faced with yourself in the stillness of meditation, you will gain a celestial lantern that will guide you through everything, but most importantly - to tranquility.
Daily meditation teaches you to listen to yourself. You’ve surely been in a situation where you’ve desperately needed an answer or advice what to do in a situation, which path to take. But think of it this way, the only person who knows you best and will know what to do - is you. So take a deep breath and listen… listen to your own being through meditation, and light will find its way to you. Finding answers within will teach you how to trust your own intuition with a serene calm mind. Unlock the door to your inner profound ocean of wisdom and trust the course of life. Every difficulty was there for a reason, and that reason is to guide you to an epiphany.
Meditation is about revealing the core essence of your soul, stripping it down of all the egos you’ve put on through your life, stripping it down of all those worries and burdens. Do you feel lost? Then trust the process of being lost, do not overthink it, do not wrap it with a scenery or a story of your mind. Just listen and trust the process with a silenced mind.
With daily meditation you will learn how to listen with your heart... not the sounds around you, not what your mind tells you but with your whole pure heart. All you need is will… to be willing to discover who you really are when turned towards spiritual freedom, light, and happiness within. Trust yourself and destroy all the shackles holding you back from reaching your empyrean shine.
