YOU and Your Higher Self Are Creating Your Reality - What I Saw in a Mystical Experience
There are moments in life that completely transform the way we see ourselves and the world around us. In episode 612 of Soul Elevation, I share a profound mystical experiences from a few years ago and the insights it revealed about consciousness, light, and our true spiritual nature. You can read more about this experience in my book, Your Authentic Awakening.
This wasn't an unusual meditation or fleeting spiritual impression. It was an experience that fundamentally changed my understanding of reality and continues to influence how I approach my spiritual path every day.
What Is a Mystical Experience?
Mystical experiences can occur during meditation, prayer, nature, moments of stillness, or seemingly ordinary circumstances. I have found that they often serve as reminders of something we've always known deep within but have not remembered in our human experience. They pull back the veil and allow us to remember who we truly are, at least to some degree.
In this episode, I share how one such experience revealed consciousness itself as something far greater than I had previously understood. Instead of identifying solely with our thoughts, emotions, or physical body, we can begin to recognize ourselves as awareness itself. This shift changes everything.
When we remember our true nature, fear begins to lose its grip. We naturally move toward greater peace, compassion, and trust.
Throughout history, spiritual traditions have described awakening using the symbolism of light. During this particular experience, light was the very fabric of consciousness itself. I was seeing two aspects of myself - the little human and the much bigger "Creator Being" - as points or spheres of light, and they were communicating to each other through the light.
I understood the neutrality of the Creator Being aspect. There was no judgment at all. It was purely creating my life experience based on what I was projecting through my light, as my human aspect.
One of the biggest obstacles to spiritual growth is carrying guilt, shame, and judgment toward ourselves or others. These emotional burdens keep us feeling separate from our authentic nature. As I discuss in this episode, healing begins when we allow ourselves to meet every part of our experience with compassion rather than condemnation. Forgiveness frees ourselves from the weight we've been carrying. As we release judgment, we naturally raise our vibration and become more aligned with love.
Raising Your Consciousness in Everyday Life
It's important to note that spiritual awakening isn't really about these peak mystical experiences. The real transformation happens in our daily lives through small, consistent choices, when we are completely present, choose love over fear, practice forgiveness, release toxic patterns, and remember in the everyday minutia that we are expressions of divine consciousness. Every moment offers another opportunity to embody higher awareness.
If you've ever wondered about the nature of mystical experiences, consciousness, or what it truly means to awaken spiritually, I hope this episode offers encouragement for your own journey.
