Welcome to my blog about transcending the self. Instead of using the mind to fix or control your world so that you can be happy, there is another way. This blog is about moving your awareness from your limited, egoic-self to your Higher Self in order that you can be the divine expression that you were intended to be.


Many of my beliefs are based on the books "The Untethered Soul" (T.U.S.) by Michael Singer and "Falling into Grace" by Adyashanti. These books describe the path of moving your awareness from the part of you that tries to make your life work (ie, find happiness, security, love...) to the part of you that Witnesses or Watches your life unfold and your reactions to your life. As you become more aware of yourself as the Watcher, and you let go of the energies of the lower self, you will be moving towards greater freedom.

So instead of struggling to make everything go your way in life, why not accept what is (release the need to fix or control people, situations or your mind), open your heart and surrender to That Which Created Life in the first place! In other words, go with the flow of life and watch the amazing miracle that you are blossom! Please join me in choosing to move beyond the limitations of the personal self and to live a life of freedom.

To get the most out of this blog, I suggest that you read the books. I also recommend the CDs by Michael Singer (see the website below). I post on this blog about once a week. If you would like to be notified by email each time I post please send your email address to donnamccullough@cox.net.

letting go even more

"You can experience a life in which waves of love can rush up inside of you any time you want.  It is the nature of your being.  You simply have to go to the other side of the psyche."  (T.U.S., p. 136)

I have to stop and ask myself how badly do I want this?  Do I want this more than I want to be right? or more than I want to feel secure? or more than I want to cling to ideas about myself and the world?

There have been times when I have thought that giving up this psyche/identity would be impossible...too much to lose.  Yet when I think of it as Michael described it in the above quote...I say "YES!"  Of course I want to experience waves of love as I go through my life and to experience the highest nature of my being.

Michael says that you get there by "letting go of the tendency to cling...by not using your mind to build false solidity.  You just decide once and for all to to take the journey by constantly letting go." (T.U.S., p. 136)

This is like taking a step off of a steep cliff... you do it because you know that God is going to catch you.
