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.

acting from the truth of eternal being

Adya says that as we awaken that trials and tribulations show up in our lives in order to purify us.

"As Jesus moves through his story, from beginning to end, he encounters almost nothing but trials and tribulations.  How does he meet each one of these challenges, from Satan in the desert all the way to the crucifixion?  From what place inside does he act?  You'll see that Jesus is uncompromising:  he always acts from the truth of eternal being.  This is an amazing teaching, and it's message is: If you meet your trials and tribulations from you own deepest realization, they will be released from your system and purified from you, so that eternal being can fully be embodied through your humanity."     (Resurrecting Jesus, p. 43) 


I have done as Adya suggested with a couple of areas of my life that are challenging.  I meditated and prayed in order to connect with my deepest realization.  I then journaled about acting from the truth of my being with regard to the challenges.  It was very powerful and helped me to deal with my life from Truth rather than from ego.  Now to continue to live from that Truth every day!
