intrinsically and deeply connected to the universe this is perfectly explained in the Hermetic principle of Correspondence and the book The kealan explains all the principles of hermetic philosophy if you're interested to learn about them make sure to click the link in the video description below to receive your free copy of the book the fact that you're connected to the universe means that any boundaries that you think exist between you and the external world are mere Illusions your skin is not a boundary your body is not a boundary Your Existence transcends any illusory boundaries and the
whole universe is living within you in the wise words of eart tol the universe is not outside of you stop thinking you are a Tiny separate entity and realize that you are the universe you are the all these words encapsulate the concept of non-duality which states that an individual and the universe are one and any separation that we perceive between ourselves and the world is Just an Illusion created by our mind when we realize and embrace the fact that we are not just a mere part of the universe but we are the universe we begin
to see our true nature we start to see that we are not an isolated being but rather we are an integral part of the whole of the cosmos by grasping this concept we can get rid of any feelings of isolation and embrace the fact that we are deeply interconnected with the whole of the universe if we focus entirely on our daily experiences it leads us astray in our daily life we identify with our bodies our thoughts and our emotions if we rely entirely on this we start to see other people and the remaining universe as
distinct from us however if we shift our Focus to spiritual teachings they remind us that this perception is Just an Illusion our true self is not confined to our own body or our own mind in fact our true self is an infinite Consciousness that permeates all of existence as your focus shifts from thinking you're an isolated being to embracing the fact that you're connected to the whole universe it leads you to question who exactly am I don't worry it's important that we ask this fundamental question and try to find the answer to it in this
journey towards Enlightenment so who are you beyond the physical layers of of identity what exactly is the core of your being let's explore in the words of the spiritual teacher nadata Maharaj the body is not you the mind is not you you are pure awareness this statement challenges the mundane understanding we have of ourselves we often think that our true self is our body or our mind but both your body and your mind change with time your body grows and shrinks your mind grows as well so what is that one thing that defines us and
never changes it is the true essence of our existence our unchanging awareness that observes our physical Sensations our thoughts and all our emotions this pure awareness doesn't come to the surface but it's always working in the background as a Silent Witness like an eternal presence that always remains constant no matter how the experiences of our life change that is what you truly are the biggest mistake we make in our life is forgetting our true nature because of a silent killer our ego the ego is constantly telling us that we are a unique individual and we
are separate from the universe these thoughts not only end up masking our true nature but they also become the source of many suffer sufferings as it keeps us in an illusion of Separation if you truly want to be enlightened you need to transcend the ego and recognize that you are an infinite Consciousness not an isolated being when we Embrace this realization we break the shackles of our ego and reveal our true infinite and interconnected nature now let us delve into how we can embark on the journey to towards Enlightenment and free ourselves from the ego

moment don't be mistaken mindfulness doesn't mean you have to actively make a huge effort and make your mind quiet it means you enter a state of quiet that's already there you think so many thoughts and stress about so many things on a daily basis that you end up losing the state of quiet you have hidden Within You by practicing mindfulness you rid yourself of all these thoughts and connect with the Tranquility inside you as you cultivate mindfulness you become more aware of your mental patterns and start to see through the illusions that are created by
your ego this helps you align all your actions with your true nature thus enabling you to live a more conscious and harmonious life mindfulness involves connection with the state of calm and quiet within you however another powerful tool in this journey is meditation which involves actively quieting down your mind and connecting with your inner self this practice involves quieting down any thoughts in your mind sitting in a silent and peaceful place and connecting deeply with your inner self and the divine by doing so you can transcend the worldly chatter in your mind and experience the
