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.

perfect Oneness

This week I have been focused on the idea that we are not separate. There is only God expressing Itself through and as life, as each of us.

Focusing on a separate self sets me up to compete, judge, and try to defend this image of self.  Recognizing that I am One with all of life engenders a more caring and generous attitude.

At our core we are all One and we are perfect. On the surface, we are imperfect human beings.  We make mistakes.  We sometimes say and do the wrong things.

I heard a beautiful expression recently: When something goes wrong, write it on ice.

As I notice human foibles and mistakes (my own and others), I will write them on ice.  As these stories melt away into the nothingness from which they came I will return to the awareness of Truth: that Life is an expression of God...that there is no image to protect...that there is only One.
