Shifting Consciousness and Clinging ego

 

When people would tell me how difficult the shift into fourth-dimensional consciousness was going to be, I never believed them. I naively underestimated the power we have given this thing we call ego. Our pandemic-enforced isolation was a darned good catalyst for the rising consciousness which is washing over humanity, but it seems many people were not prepared. I’m watching a few friends sinking deeper into depression, becoming extremely anxious about resuming social interactions, and feeling hopeless for many reasons. The ego, or mortal mind, is screaming loudly as we near an awakening unlike anything humans have allowed for themselves. It’s upon us and far too many people are far too afraid of losing control — control of themselves and others. It’s been taught to us from an early age that we must have goals, set limitations, and plan for every possibility. The realization that divine Mind’s elucidation is being felt and followed, causes the mortal mind to fight back, feeding our angst and increasing our desire to be in charge. This egotistic mind thinks it knows more than the omnipresent, omniscient Presence which we think of as God. “Let go and let God” turns out to be harder to do than to say — but most of us are trying! We’re studying and putting into practice what feels right deep inside us. We’re gathering together, whether in person or in spirit (or internet), and the tipping point is closer than ever before. Join with me in celebration of our true independence, finding freedom from the false demons which taunt us and embracing all which Life has to offer!

"As a material, theoretical life-basis is found to be a misapprehension of existence, the spiritual and divine Principle of man dawns upon human thought, and leads it to 'where the young child was,' -- even to the birth of a new-old idea, to the spiritual sense of being and of what Life includes. Thus the whole earth will be transformed by Truth on its pinions of light, chasing away the darkness of error." Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 191:8
