Whether your quest for your true Self is conscious or unconscious, direct or indirect, ultimately, it is within the context of our daily life, that each one of us must seek a greater truth that settles all our anxieties. But our Self-discovery process gets sabotaged by our own shadow, a false sense of self, borne out of a random assortment of subjective memories, stories, thoughts, disconnected ideas, illusions and delusions that we seemingly ‘own’ in our mind. The shadow defines us and infernally, limit us. To be sorrow free, discernment between the true Self and shadow self is critical, because our true Self is limitlessly creative, blissful and boundless in nature. By growing in your awareness of your boundless Self, you can write your own life script and soar in your consciousness.
