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.

Adyashanti's insights

Some insights from Adyashanti during the retreat that I attended in August:

All self is imaginary

 Bring all of myself to this moment.

 Nothing in the manifest world is perfect...just look at nature...the green needles turn brown.  (We too are not and never will be perfect in the human sense).

 Surrender.

 When life goes haywire it is often due to not listening to one's Truth.

 Anything that remains after I stop thinking about it is real.  Everything else is imaginary.

 When feeling lost, ground yourself in Truth.



My intention this week is to sit with the last 3 ideas.  What is Truth?  What is real?  What is imaginary? Interesting questions, worthy of contemplation.
