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.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!  I hope that the Christ Consciousness was born in you today, stronger than ever.

I have been working with two ideas this week.  One from Adyashanti who says that sincerity is absolutely essential to spiritual awakening yet being completely honest with ourselves and others is very difficult for most people.  One of the things that can help reduce the tendency to hide from ourselves is to let go of self-judgment.  Self-judgment keeps us from being able to be honest with ourselves.

I have also been working on "not closing" or keeping myself from running away from discomfort (think about the inner thorn analogy and the apparatus used to keep the tender area from being touched).  Instead of trying to fix (and therefore run from) inner discomfort when it comes up I have felt it and stayed with the feeling (allowing the energy to pass through me).  I then choose to let the feeling go...surrendering it to God has helped a lot in the letting go.

In order to let the light in, we need to let go of what is blocking us from realizing Truth.  Please join me this week in letting go of self-judgment and allowing uncomfortable feelings to make their way through.
