Letting Go (Part 3)

What is the spiritual journey about? Letting go.

Letting go of all we ever have believed the world and us to be. The more we let go of the burden of belief the lighter we get. The lighter we get the more our lives will blossom.

Our beliefs and ideas are control. We use them to hold onto something, we use them to feel that we are able to control life. But the truth is we never had any control and we will not be able to control the future either.

Our mindsets are hurting us. Life wants us to do one thing but our mind wants to do something else. Our mind wants to do what it was trained to do. That creates conflict and this conflict is the source of most of the emotional suffering on this planet and because emotional and physical is connected also the source of most physical illnesses.

The more we let go, the lighter we get, the less we hold on the more we can go with life, the more we are guided by what I would call cosmic intelligence. Now we are at the right time in the right place doing the best for everybody involved. Conflict has ended.

Letting go is very scary though. We don’t know what will happen since we have absolutely no control over the outcome. Fact is that we have no idea who we are until we let go and find out what emerges when control disappears. Going through this process is very unsettling and at times traumatic.

But do we have a choice?
