PATHWAY TO JOY AND HEALING

Before beginning spiritual practice and learning about the ego, I never truly understood the concept of free will.  What I have done in the past before recognizing my ego was never truly choosing from free will.  My actions and choices were always controlled to satisfy the needs of my ego.

Our egos create our own emotional prisons when we operate based on attachments to our past emotional histories and resulting beliefs, judgement that we are right and others are wrong, and control of others who can’t meet the needs and demands of our egos. When we operate under these premises, we are not truly choosing from free will at all, but, in fact, create our own suffering in our self created prisons.

Choosing from free will occurs after we have let go of ego, and we operate within our higher selves.  These choices are made not from fear that cause us to choose for self gain and protection, but from unconditional love, compassion, and kindness to ourselves and others.  When we choose to leave dysfunctional relationships, it is due to moving to a better emotional place in our lives and to ascend spiritually, not out of anger, jealousy, or fear of abandonment.  These are the life lessons I have learned in the past two years.

All choices can be made, but are they truly from free will or are they being controlled by our egos?  Food for thought!  Infinite love and light, Brooke (Copyright 2013 Kundalini Spirit with All RIghts Reserved)
