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.

"the most powerful healing balm that exists"

To continue with the theme of forgiveness:

"Forgiveness is probably the greatest healer there is.  When we forgive someone, what we've forgiven we're no longer attached to, no longer controlled by...In the story of Jesus, the ultimate act of forgiveness comes near the end, when Jesus says from the cross, 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.' Luke 23:34...And why forgive? Because they know not what they do.  This forgiveness comes from a deep spiritual understanding of the causes of suffering-and also of  those who inflict suffering, for those who inflict suffering have always had suffering inflicted upon them at some prior time. When we start to realize this, our hearts open."  (Ressurecting Jesus, p. 91)    

Notice how often throughout the day you have a need to practice forgiveness.

"It's Jesus' greatest gift, the most powerful healing balm that exists."  (p.91)
