Finding Atman
“You never attract that which you want, but always that which you are.” Neville Goddard
I had to really meditate on this teaching today. When we think of manifesting, it is usually something that we perceive we lack; therefore, we want it. In reality though, we lack nothing. When we get out of our ego mind and focus on our true innocent self, we realize this fact.
These lyrics from “Return To Innocence” by Enigma are profound:
“Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence.”
The innocent true self does not want for anything except love. The material things of the world do not interest or entice the soul, the Atman, within each one of us. Given that, the teaching of Goddard makes total sense. When we go out of our heart, that is when we start feeling unfulfilled and thus we seek to surround ourselves with things to fill that void. When we return to our innocence, we realize that it is only love that can ever fulfill us.
Dear Angels, I know that life on this planet comes with certain requirements to survive, such as air, food, water, shelter. These are known as the essentials of life. Sometimes we see that some of those essentials are lacking and thus our sense of safety and security is shaken. How do we stop the anxious thoughts that we will not have enough? How do we achieve that balance of faith and survival instinct?
Dear Ones, the soul or Atman within you did not come to Earth on accident or by chance. It was a conscious decision fully aware of the requirements that would need to be met once it entered a human body. That decision was made at the highest level of conscious awareness after much contemplation. This is why we encourage you, Dear Ones, to return to that point of innocence within you. Upon doing so, you will have more understanding about faith. Faith is the conviction, the deep belief, in something that many times is seemingly impossible or not readily seen. Your innocent being knows without a doubt that you will be cared for and your needs will be met. Even Jesus taught about this when he walked the Earth: “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on.” Dear Ones, as you return to your true innocence you will remember your magnificence and have the understanding and knowledge of how to traverse the lifetime you are living and not only survive but thrive.
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to return to my innocent self whenever an anxious thought arises and focus only on love.
