Your authentic self is always calling you into higher realms where you live close to your integrity and purest values such as listening intuitively to your inner voice and following it. In these ways you live closer to your true divine self.
Your authentic self is a place where you reckon with your life and make better decisions which create inner peace for yourself and others. As you grow, you outgrow your former self. This is an ongoing process for those who are trying to improve.
As your ego surrenders to higher realms of the Authentic Self, and makes efforts to follow the principles of love, compassion, kindness, humility, honesty, fairness, consideration patience, etc., healing takes place. This is because these higher realms are powerful! This is your true home where your soul most loves to dwell. When you express these principles – to any degree – your life takes on greater meaning and value – not just for yourself but for the whole world.
The happiest life is where you most live in alignment with your Authentic Self or Higher Self. You notice when others do this – Oprah, Dahlia Lama, Thich Nhat Hahn, and many far fewer famous people around you who quietly live their truth and create disciplines around this, who practice awareness and make strong efforts to follow a path of love and spirituality while holding themselves accountable to living, as best they can, and growing in their important higher standards.
If at times you feel like a failure in being your Authentic Self, let go of the self-judgment and mistakes from the past and take a deep breath of authentic truth as you decide, moment by sacred moment, to embrace what is most real about you. There’s a lot about you to love!
A well lived life, though not without its struggles, has a way of shaping you even higher. It grows your heart with greater tenderness, deeper caring, and a strong desire for all-inclusiveness, unity, and even peace making. Your Authentic Self craves these higher realms and is always leading you there.
Your Authentic Self’s reach is expansive and infinite. It acts as a guide lighting your path forward in the best possible ways. When you follow your principles – even though it isn’t easy and can, at times, be loaded with struggle – you make efforts to overcome your darkest places and you start to become who you are meant to be with each passing moment. Over time, this develops an inner radiance which you may hardly notice. Others will notice your higher glow.
