The Power of Letting Go

“Each time we surrender a burden, we rise closer to the sky of our true nature.” Sage

Dear Ones,
It’s easy for us humans to believe all the negative stories about ourselves, others or the world the mind offers us. So it is such an amazing discovery when we can finally see clearly our true nature. It is like a stunning sunrise after a long dark night, we see that all the beauty, all the love, all the abundance, all the freedom we’ve been seeking in the world has always been within us. We can see that no one is excluded; all are part of this oneness, this affectionate awareness from which everything arises. 

This highest truth might be less visible to the naked eye as we look at the world as it is right now. But once we see the truth we are no longer fooled by appearances no matter how convincing they might be. On the contrary a greater compassion might naturally arise as we see the majority living their lives from the mistaken identity of being separate limited self. But we also know that if the realisation is possible for us it is possible for anyone. We know that everyone awakens in perfect divine timing to the truth of who they are.

 We often feel inspired to share with everyone the path which leads us back home. One of the most powerful tools is the power of letting go. We can’t ever lose what truly belongs to us. We can’t ever lose the luminous radiance of our true nature. But we can certainly let go of shame, fear, anger, grief and frustration. We can let go of negative thoughts and beliefs. And this is much easier than we’ve been told. 

In fact it’s much more difficult to hold on to them although for most of us it has become a second nature so we no longer realise we are doing it. Nevertheless it takes a lot of energy to repress, suppress or hold onto any negative feelings. Sometimes we might even believe it is right to hold onto them and that it serves us in some ways. But all we are doing is clouding the beautiful blue sky of our awareness with so many clouds that after a while we no longer remember that the sky is still there and that it is heavenly blue. All we can see and identify with are the heavy clouds of thoughts, feelings and beliefs. All we can see is the lack and limitation.

But once we awake from a dream of limitation we remember and allow the letting go to be easy and effortless. We remember our true power and that everything happens by our choice, whether this choice is conscious or unconscious. And in the moment we choose to let go of who we are not, the majesty of who we are emerges. No pushing, no struggling was required, only true understanding and willingness. When we are ready, what no longer serves us falls down like dead leaves from a tree. 

And it feels like we can breathe freely once again. It’s like a weight has been lifted from our shoulders. A moment ago we were crawling but now feel like we have the wings to fly. Our true nature weighs nothing and no longer burdened by negativity, we can now see a new world. And we make one more discovery that we don’t see the world as it is but as we are. 

And so dearest One, if you feel inspired, join us for this meditation and experience for yourself the power of letting go. 

Lots of love, 

Jana
