Release yourself from the burden of other people’s responsibility of alignment

'you have no moral right to take away someone's suffering'~ Ram Dass

 The clarity that comes with spiritual progress is amazing. It feels really good to be at a distance from the memory that once brought suffering. Nowadays, I find it hard to believe how often I am present in this moment without being in my head too much. When we feel this amazing, it's natural for us to want the same for others. I remember my first weeks of doing Isha kriya, I was so happy I told everyone around me about my experience. When I did inner engineering it was even worse. I had to tell my friends about it.

Looking back, I have realized that it is quite hard to explain to someone about an inner experience. When we work on rooting ourselves in reality on a daily basis, we are able to function from the perspective of the inner spirit from which pure positivity and light emanate. Functioning from this perspective allows us to be more present, joyful, compassionate, loving, and at ease. Of course, we definitely want the same for people around us, but usually, most people do not understand. 

Most people are lost in their accumulations of thought and emotion

Many people have not realized that they are suffering because of their own psychological mess. They are still identified with their bodies and can only see life through the filters of their memory. In my experience, seeing life from the perspective of memory makes you drift through life, not knowing what you are doing or where you are going. One tends to put too much weight on their thoughts and feelings, and this makes them a slave to their beliefs. If toxic beliefs dominate their mind, they literally become their thoughts with time, and a cycle of negative emotions plague them from time to time. unless such a person sees that they are creating the madness, learning never happens. 

Share your light and positivity

When you finally realize the truth, you start working on distancing yourself from your accumulated memory. You realize that you have been entangled in your own thought and emotional process, and once you start establishing a distance, you start to discover who you are. You feel all the positive vibes that come with aligning with your true self. This is the time to shine your light and share your positivity with others. 

I have talked to many close friends about my spiritual journey. While I think it is great to share, not everyone is receptive and sensitive enough to this kind of information. Some of the people I have shared my experience with have an idea of the truth, but taking action is quite a problem. 

You are not responsible for their alignment

When I first started my journey of spiritual awareness I could not shut up about it. I told everyone I interacted with because I thought everyone should know, and start fixing themselves right away. Well, it doesn't work like that. I now realize that the more I use my energy to try to explain to someone, the more I feel bad when they do nothing about it. This dilutes my own progress. It is also part of the reason why I chose to express myself by writing and sharing on social media so that whoever is aligned with my message will do the necessary work. 

Stop complaining about your friends

If you are a spiritual person, you have probably lost touch with your friends. This is a journey best done alone because you are responsible for your own accumulations. In my experience though, when I hang out with my friends I realize the immense growth that has happened within me. I no longer speak the same way I used to, so it becomes difficult to hold a conversation with my peers. I feel like I have gone quite far from them internally, and it's easy to tell just from a conversation. The problem is, I have been complaining about the fact that they seem to be in the same place even though I showed them an easy solution to their problems.

 Instead of complaining about how my friends are still living in the past, I can just share my light and positivity with them. This way, maybe they'll see what I mean without me having to explain it to them. You attract what you are thinking about, so complaining about your friends will most likely attract the same kind of friends. 

That's it for now, feel free to comment if anything resonates. Peace✌
