Comfortable, just the way you are

Our whole spiritual transformation brings us to the point where we realize that in our own being we are enough.
Ram Dass

Transformation versus here and now is a confusing issue in our Awakening journey. ‘What journey and what transformation?’, our sages ask, ‘you are climbing an imaginary mountain’, they say. Please do not assume that in ten years’ time you will be closer to the Light as you are now. True, but then, I can almost assure you that you will be more humble, more patient, more light-hearted and a lot more forgiving of yourself and others.

‘Just be!’, tends to be my battle cry. The Now has all the answers for us, that’s where the Light is always streaming in. We have many magical ‘out-of-self’ experiences, we then are Awareness, just as we have many spiritual Aha-moments and watch our illusionary self sliced layer by layer. In the here and now, be aware, be Awareness, just be, until you reach that point when you are comfortable being just the way you are.

How difficult exactly is it to be comfortable just the way you are? Today is a good day to just be!
