A week ago, while walking, I was contemplating what I am really made of and what my true nature is. I could not finish my walk because I had a strong feeling and urge to sit and meditate, which I followed. This time, for some reason, the meditation felt very different. I closed my eyes and fell somewhere deep within myself, somewhere so profound.

I felt this expansion, like I was getting some answers to the questions I had been holding on to. While in that state, I could feel a sense of my boundless nature, expanded and free-flowing. Interestingly, at the same time, I could clearly see the limiting layers of my small self-identity and how much they were restricting and limiting me. It was all very visible, like seeing something with absolute clarity.

This expanded state lasted for a day or so, and then I felt like I was thrown into the density of my own karma and shadows, which had been hidden beneath. All these got illuminated intensely. It was overwhelming and too much to deal with. But I know this is exactly where I should go, I just need to ride through the waves. Whatever is coming up are the layers that have been limiting me from my true self. Even though it is very challenging, I understand that this is something I need to surrender fully and pass through to liberate myself.

In the article when I was reading about trust in the process, these words—trusting the soul and trusting the flow—felt almost like a soft wind in my consciousness, calming and relaxing me. Giving me strength to navigate through. I am so grateful for this breakthrough approach that is helping me surrender deeply and to pass through, trusting the soul, trusting the process, and trusting the flow.
