A Few Words on Blissing Out

Category   Enlightenment

In the past I’ve had spikes of awakening where it suddenly popped in.

It seems like now things are starting to bubble up a little more steadily. It’s like the Oneness repeatedly starts to become prominent as separation sort of fades away into the nothingness. There are several things happening.

1) Withdrawing From the World

There’s a sense of withdrawal from the world, not in the escapist sense, but in the sense that I find I’m letting go of needing approval from the world and letting go of fear while being in the world. It’s like I’m withdrawing from that fear-based false reality in the first place and instead resting in something infinitely larger. There’s the recognition that I am NOT the fear and it has nothing whatsoever to do with my true nature and so I’m withdrawing energy, interest, and all sense of validity in it. Am I totally there yet? No, but it feels like it’s definitely progressing.

2) Freedom In the World

Going hand in hand with the withdrawal from the world of suffering is a simultaneous ease with which to fully be in the world, a sense of being totally and completely free to be whomever I choose to be without holding back, to be myself with no limitation. With the progressive dissolution of giving reality to fear-based lies, there’s this immense sense of freedom and the ability to enjoy the world as it is rather than needing anything from it or requiring it to be a certain way in order to make myself happy. There’s the natural and automatic experience of loving the world as it is, every aspect of it. The Sedona Method is a wonderful tool to help spark this experience.

3) Bliss

Within this body there’s this incredibly pleasurable feeling of bliss pulsing through it. It is sublime. The more I can surrender into it, the greater the sensation. It’s a silent bliss, a feeling of ecstasy. It’s not a bouncing off the walls feeling of ecstasy, but more like a mind-melting turn-your-body-to-mush ecstasy. In this state there’s no real desire to move, talk, or even breathe. It’s like consciousness falls into this all-pervading bliss and whatever happens to the body happens.

I’m beginning to speak less, do less, yet that which I am is expanding. I am so much more.

4) Detaching From the Body

There’s even a sense of not really being “attached to” the body. It’s similar to what I’ve experienced just before leaving the body. Before I rise above the body, it’s like I let go of being confined within it. It’s almost like floating in water and stepping out of a shell. I’m suddenly extending a foot or two beyond the skin, almost bobbing around like a cork in the water, twisting and turning a bit. The physical body doesn’t seem like it has much if anything to do with the physical sensation of who I am. It’s tougher to point down a location as to “where” I exist. My location seems to be moving around a bit.

5) Resting in the Mystery

Fear of the unknown has long been one of my greatest fears in this lifetime and I find myself now abiding in the unknown, resting in the mystery, becoming totally okay with not knowing, becoming friends with not needing to figure things out.

In this place there’s space for anything to happen. There’s the space for all of Creation to arise without limitation. I’m not telling things what should happen or how they should happen. There’s a space for the flow of life itself to arise unabated.

I know that I truly don’t know and I sit in this space of not knowing, in peace, in love, in bliss.

God bless.

    Hey “Ariel” :p has this brought any deeper insight into bridging the aparent “gap” between enlightenment, and manifestation? Like Abraham’s stuff with seeking the highest possible truth?

    It still seems to me like a stepping stone. First “you” try to manifest things, then you let God manifest through you, then you realize it was YOU all along, or something like that.

    I’m not sure there is any “gap” anymore.

    No matter which path you follow, they both boil down to what awareness is aware of and letting go of control.

    Yes it does seem, at first, that there is a “you” who makes things happen in the world through blood, sweat, and tears.

    Then there is another stage where the “you” you are is basically a conduit for a higher power to flow through you. Action is still taken, yes. Visualization and deliberate intention can still be done, yes. But the Source of Creation is the Source of Creation itself, rather than the limited energy you have in the moment.

    You are connected to an infinite supply of energy, but you can only hold so much at a time. Use your personal energy and you’re limited. Allow Source to work through you and it’s unlimited.
