The Battle Within
If you look around you, you’ll see it. Each culture, each religion, and now each conscious community trying to explain the same thing…that we all have a duality at play. It’s the good versus bad, God versus Satan, light versus dark, and no matter what you believe in, it is happening within you.
In my space, I describe it as the Ego versus your True Self, with the understanding that it is also you coming from the energy of either fear or love.
Understanding the Ego and the True Self
Your ego is your attachment to being human. It is your fear-based, limitation thinking. It is the part of you blocking you from experiencing the fullness that is within you.
Your true self is your union with your soul. It is your love-based, limitless thinking. It is the fullness of your authentic self and the connection to the power that is innate within you.
When you strip anything in life back, it comes into one of these two points. It is either fear-based or love-based. Therefore, it is either coming from your ego or from your true self.
The Battle Within
These two parts of ourselves are both existing within us, and in their duality, there is a battle going on between these two parts of ourselves. Yet, most people aren’t aware that these two parts exist. They aren’t aware that they exist as the two parts of themselves, that they are within them and also, more importantly, that they are within their ability to manage.
Recognizing Your Power
Creation power is within you to a depth that you likely have no concept of today. If humanity understood how powerful they truly are, they would be playing the game of life very differently. You are the director of your life, the guiding energy bringing everything into existence, and also the energy blocking everything that you want to experience from becoming your reality.
Differentiating Between the Ego and True Self
To navigate this battle, it is crucial to know how the ego and true self sound and feel. Your ego shows up in a forceful way, whereas your true self feels peaceful. The ego resides in your mind, while your true self emerges from your heart.
Choosing Your True Self
The battle between the ego and true self can be won through your choices. By choosing your true self, you allow its voice to grow stronger, while the ego's voice weakens. It's essential to understand that this battle is not about the volume of the voice or the size of the bodies; it's about your choice.
Building Trust with Your True Self
While it may be daunting to trust yourself after previous mistakes, it is crucial to listen to the right voice within you. By practicing and learning from the results, you can refine your understanding of the voices and make choices aligned with your true self.
Choosing our true self over the ego is a daily practice, requiring self-awareness and conscious decision-making. It is through this choice that we align ourselves with love, abundance, and fulfillment. Trusting our true self may be challenging at times, but as we listen to its voice, learn from our experiences, and make choices in alignment with our authentic nature, we build a strong bond that guides us on our unique path.
Remember, the battle within is not about overpowering or silencing the ego, but about embracing the wisdom and love that reside within our true self. It is a journey of self-acceptance, forgiveness, and growth. As we nurture and nourish our true self, we become vessels of positive change, spreading love, compassion, and authenticity to the world.
