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.

"I am Love and I am loved"


Michelle Longo O'Donnell says this often in  "The God that We Have Created; The Basic Cause of All Disease"

I am Love and life loves me.

That is all I really need to know.

To paraphrase Michelle:

There is no need to use human effort to get our needs met because "It is the Fathers good pleasure to give us the Kingdom."  It is not a matter or being worthy or unworthy.  I am Love and I am loved not because of anything that I have done or not done.  I am Love and I am loved because I am an expression of the Divine.  My life is an expression of God,  Since God created us out of Itself, why would God ever want to express Itself in anyway that is not perfect Love, Peace and Joy?  Anything else that is showing up in our experience is an area of darkness that is awaiting the light.

Michelle suggests that the reason we experience disease, lack, limitation etc is because we are holding onto a sense of unworthiness and an idea of God as judgmental, conditional, punishing, revengeful.  A Course in Miracles basically says the same thing.

It is hard to wrap one's head around the idea that we are completely and unconditionally worthy of pure Love, Peace, and Joy just because we are alive.  It can be difficult to completely Surrender to the Divine and Trust that we will be loved, cared for, protected, guided, and blessed with Grace. However, Surrender is exactly what we must do if we want to move into a new way of Being.

We must Surrender our judgments, fears, resentments, hurts and limiting beliefs about ourselves and others.  We must see beyond the ways that human beings often show up, and know that a Higher Truth and a Higher experience are possible.

There is an ocean of love waiting for us.  As the musician Kirtana sings "Leave the world of mind (i.e., human effort) like sandals by the shore."  Relax and let go and you will experience love as you have never imagined.
