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.

life is waiting for you to be still

It has been a busy week so I will post something that Adya wrote and I may write more later in the weekend.  Here is what Adya has to say about the role that John the Baptist played in Jesus's awakening.  As you will see in the last sentence, the descent of spirit can come to us when we are open to someone who is awakened or when we are open to spirit through some other avenue of life.

"All that life is waiting for is a moment of being still.  Then the resonant force can be activated in you, opening you so that spirit can come alive in you... You no longer identify yourself with your name, or gender, or occupation, or past history.  You know and experience yourself to be pure spirit, the formless and eternal consciousness of all created things...You don't become divine being: you realize it; you awaken to it.  And you awaken to it when you surrender, when you open yourself deeply to another person who's awake or simply to the mystery of life itself." (Resurrecting Jesus, p.63-64)

Surrender.

Be still and listen.

Allow yourself the gift of finding out who you really are, beyond the drama of the mind.  You are so much more and life is just waiting to show you who you are.

All you have to do is say "Yes!".
