  The concept of the “Self” lies at the core of many spiritual and philosophical traditions. It is often described as the most fundamental aspect of our being, the true essence of who we are. However, the Self is not something we can easily grasp through our usual means of understanding, like thought, perception, or intellect. It transcends our physical, mental, and emotional experiences, yet it is ever-present and underlies all of them. In this chapter, we will explore what the Self is, how it differs from the ego or personality, and why understanding the Self is key to realizing true reality. The Self as Pure Consciousness At its essence, the Self is pure consciousness. It is the awareness that observes all experiences, but it is not limited by or attached to those experiences. It is the unchanging witness of all that arises in life—the thoughts, emotions, sensations, and perceptions we experience daily. To grasp this concept, think about a movie screen. The screen rema...

Fireflies along the path of spiritual awakening

 A person 'clothes' the Teacher in a specific form and creates it as a temporary illusion (serving the purpose of awakening the soul; the temporary illusion is necessary for the various stages through which learning progresses).
When a person matures and is ready, they realize that externalizing the Teacher is a limitation and narrows their perspective of realization.
That is why in our Bible it is said: 'Do not make idols,' 'Do not have any other God besides Me'... And who is this 'Me,' and isn't it (in) Every 'Me'...

Every being and consciousness understands this in its own time-space, in its own plot-reality. A person becomes a conscious teacher when they understand that everything is a Teacher, and that someone who has played the role of the externalized Self is actually (in) themselves.

In this sense, it can be said that there are no teachers because everything and everyone is a Teacher, for God is a Teacher in them.
The only Teacher is the Lord.

This integration, this merging of different levels of consciousness organization is a miracle - it is the One-We of subconsciousness, consciousness, and superconsciousness, a gathering of 'otherness,' of past-present and future in Reality - in which the illusion of time-space simultaneously acts and does not act.

A drop returns to the ocean, but it has the consciousness that it is a drop and that it is in the ocean.

The levels of consciousness organization are for convenience, on the ladder of the path to one's Self. A purely linear hierarchical model to maintain the illusion as long as it is useful.

There is a need for an illusion as long as it is useful for growth and awakening, then it becomes a crutch and a limitation.

A tree, when it is a small sapling, is fenced off to prevent it from being eaten by, for example, some grazing animal or from being carried away by a storm.

The Good Gardener (God) protects and sets boundaries for it until it grows.

And when the tree grows, the fences become obstacles, and there is a need to break the boundaries, remove the fences.

Because it is no longer about someone supporting and protecting it, but about taking responsibility and fighting for freedom until it sees that it is free, at the beginning.

All of this is a progression.

And since every person, every creature, every consciousness is at a different stage of their development, of their self-awareness and self-exploration, there is divergence, division, opposition, resistance, friction, misunderstanding, conflicts, and contradictions, which serve as fuel for movement and awakening. This is the fuel necessary for movement to occur.

Just as a baby passes through the birth canal by the friction of its head against the canal in order to be born and emerge (without friction, there would be no progress), just as it happens on a purely physical level, so on the path to spiritual birth, friction is necessary on the path of awakening the soul. That is why there is suffering.

Time is an illusion; we are already together. We are a collective Being in the body of God. We are one. There is a great Bulgarian song with lyrics: 'Sometimes you're late, but you always come, you come to us.'

Each person travels their own path of spiritual birth at their own pace when the time comes. Before that, there is a ripening of the fruit-baby-Sun. Everyone is a Sun of God.

We are born physically, we pass through the birth canal physically. Life thereafter in the physical dimension (which we call the white world here) continues to represent a kind of birth canal in another form. In reality, we have not yet truly been born. This process is currently unfolding. We are yet to be born.

All the 'jerking,' 'friction,' pain, walls we bump into, wounds, resistance, contradictions, limitations in the plot-like reality of life - the educational plot-life - represent the spiritual birth canal.

A person is born physically and adapts to the birth trauma (entering form, incarnation is a birth trauma), adapting through the splitting of consciousness into levels (otherness, distractions, defocusings, projections), and continues to experience life in a defocused, non-self-focused, and uncentered manner. In such a limited mode, the birth canal continues. Life continues in a limited perspective of experience, with limited energy resources. This fermentation has its period, and then the integration of the divisions and otherness begins.

We enter form, and then we learn lessons and find ways to exit form - all of this is to explore ourselves from different perspectives. To explore God, to have Our Creator revealed to us in an ever-expanding perspective and at deeper levels and dimensions.
