Resurrection Sunday
I felt blessed to guide a group meditation this morning and share some words reflecting on what this weekend means to me at the beginning.
I did about 30mins of deep stretching, wrote the bulk of this email and headed to the local church. I pop in usually once a week and sit at the back in quiet contemplation. Of course it was packed - Ressurection Sunday.
I feel on this day we are powerfully asked to believe in the power of our transformation.
They say the goal is to die before you die. The death of personality and world identity, a kind of earthly execution, is followed by an eternal resurrection.
Re-birth of the new is not possible without death of the old.
The metaphorical cave, in the darkness and void is where and when the process alchemy takes - the transmutation and the preparation for transformation
.
This is the space where one’s higher self goes to work.
But it’s not required to go and sit in a cave for 3 days - the cave is within. That’s why meditation is vital in the process of transformation. Without the external distraction and stimulation, you see yourself more clearly.
To be set free of the false - the fear, the wounding and the doubt, the self-limiting beliefs we accumulate from the point of coming into the world - they need to be seen first.
What I feel that Christ shows, is that is safe to surrender, to let go of all that has been and to step forth into our potentiality. His message is all about the resurrection of you. The awakening of you. The re-birth of you.
When he says I am the truth, the way and the life - he’s showing the process is possible, but the ‘I’ is and always was You. So, not said in separation, rather a demonstration of your power.
It’s a return to our higher selves - to childlike simplicity, but now with the wisdom forged during the painful alchemy and the time in the metaphorical cave.
And as you walk in your truth, having let go of the old self, you are no longer running on fear-based software. The old code has been wiped. You are now powered by a force that is eternal, unstoppable, and unshakable
Your fears do not own you anymore because you are not moving alone.
Your wounds do not define you anymore. The traumas, the guilt and shame—they belong to the one who was crucified. You now stand now free.
Your desires are purified by the fire within you.
When you speak, you speak with conviction—not because of your own personal wisdom, but because a greater wisdom is flowing through you.
When you act, you act with power—not because of your own strength, but because you are recognise that you are connected to an inexhaustible source.
When you love, you love fully with all of your being—because the selfishness, the small self of seperation that once held you back is gone.
For a man that was lowest of the low in all the ways from lying to cheating to stealing - the message, the sacrifice and the demonstration of Christ for me is a powerful refuge, to see and feel deeply that there is the potential to change.
That, if we are willing to walk through our darkness, we will see our light.
All glory to Christ.x
