An end to painful experiences

Choosing for your inner Self means choosing for a beginning of the end to painful experiences through your personality. Seen from the perspective of your personality, letting go of your investment in him is a bad thing to do which should be fought with every means available, since he does not see the advantage to him, and seen from his perspective, this is logical. So his process comes down to choosing over and over again to repeat painful experiences. You will first have to get this role very clear for yourself in order to be able to do - and want to do - something about this. Usually this is an unpleasant phase, since you will have to face that you have made something of which you believed it could work, and which turns out not to work. 

It is this dilemma which causes most trouble during your process of increasing Awareness. You want the experience of your inner Self, and yet do not dare or do not want to let go of your investment in your personalities way of living - to which you have grown accustomed. The minute you find yourself prepared to let go and have your inner Self guide your experiences, you can hardly imagine why you considered this to be difficult and even why you did not make this choice lóng before. And yet, in the next situation you are likely to face the same choice once more, and consider it to be a difficult one again.

Do realize that choosing for your inner Self means choosing that not only your interests, but that of everybody involved as well, is taken care of in the most optimal way. This will always be seen so in the light of increasing Awareness, since your inner Self does not know of other interests - even though you will notice in a very convenient way that these too are taken care of in a familiar and appropriate manner. The process of increasing Awareness is also about trusting this more and more.
You will be convinced through your experiences, not through rational arguments. You will be inspired where you used to believe you had to control things. And you will learn to trust it álways works this way, when you allow your Self to fill your mental space and no longer interfere with your personality ;-) Painful experiences are always from your personality. It is not the universal Truth that your essence is your inner Self which hurts, it is realizing what you yourself have put in the way of remembering this that you experience as painful.

The difference in experience is somewhat the following: the difference between riding alone on an old bike, uphill on a bumpy road, without map or goal (your personality), and comfortably sitting in the backseat of a Rolls Royce, with a chauffeur and GPS, and even though you have no idea where you are at this moment or what you will find on your way, you know for sure that you are heading for home in a safe and quiet way (your inner Self).
