Each one of us is already a Master, an expert in skillfully creating every moment of our lives. Isn’t this a marvelous thought? We all attract life lessons at every turn, lessons that provide opportunities to illuminate the mind, to awaken the heart and to realize our soul’s purpose.
Spiritual self-mastery means that you have consciously chosen to embark upon the same path that all the great spiritual Masters have traveled before us. Simply put, the path to spiritual self-mastery is one of living in complete authenticity, free of illusion and with unconditional love for self and all others.
For all who choose this path, it becomes a joyous, lifelong and rewarding inner search, discovering all the highest expressions of one’s self. It will not guarantee material wealth, yet it will bring uplifting inner abundance and joy to the self-realized soul. It cannot remove a painful past, or an uncertain future, yet it will awaken the heart to gently transmute past hurts into powerfully transformative tools, in the present, to manifest a fulfilling future founded in an unshakable trust of the universal flow. It cannot bring intellectual understanding, yet it will increase inner wisdom and intuitive knowing to illuminate your path. It may not enable anyone to do anything, yet it will enable you to be everything, a fully functioning and divinely self-expressing emissary of peace and compassion within the world.
In living without the entanglements of self-judgment and judgment of others, we become the highest expression of a human being. We become love itself, “in the world and not of it”. Inner freedom is the result of spiritual self-mastery and the outward expression of our lives becomes the realization of this freedom.
