You are not the mind. You are that which you know now as the inner teacher.
The inner teacher is your Self. When you sit and commune with the inner teacher, you are temporarily disengaging from the mind and communing with your own true wisdom. When you are able to stay with your Self, and your attention no longer drifts back to the mind as ‘me’, you won’t need an inner teacher anymore. Until then, the apparent relationship with the inner teacher is the most important relationship you have. Please treasure it as such. It will awaken you to the degree that you value it as the most important thing in your life.
For contemplation:
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.” ~ Matthew 13:44
Thoughts of Awakening # 320
How do you define yourself?
What are the limits you place
on the idea of who you are?
Do not take this question lightly
as something to read
and then move beyond.
Stay with this question.
Give willingness to see
definitions you might not have seen,
which are part of your identity.
Look at who you think you are and ask,
“Is this idea a limit?”
If the answer is “yes”,
give willingness to release the limit
regardless of how precious
the idea may be to you.
~From our Holy Spirit
