I am often asked to reveal a person’s purpose during a session. Yet, I choose not to give a concrete answer due to the simple truth that it is not mine to give.
The presumption that we have chosen or been given a purpose before we incarnated is part of the complex creation story of separation and polarity that furthers the perception of a seemingly linear creation and evolutionary journey. It also imprints deeper the program of the inner, physical, emotional and mental division between good and bad, shadow and light, preferable and unpreferable and so on. Furthermore, it assumes that there is a higher power that oversees and even decides what we need to accomplish. This includes the decision of who will receive a “good” or a “bad” purpose.
The concept of a purpose is a coping mechanism to deal with a many-layered and deeply imprinted, cellular survival pattern that most individuals and the collective contain. It is the result of a history that is rattled with suffering, struggle and endurance and the illusion that one has to redeem oneself in order to return to unity. Another hypnosis linked to it is the belief that as humans we are not equal and below the Divine.
There lies a deep longing within every human to discover the answer to the questions; “Who am I?”, “Where do I belong?”, “Why am I here?”. The psyche and ego react to that longing due to distrust and the terror of not being safe (besides other programs). They trigger a need to focus outside of a person to define their purpose. Often, it turns into a extraordinary goal that elevates the individual from the rest. It can also cause constant anxiety because of the overwhelm created when an assumed purpose suppresses one’s needs and joy. Rigidity, increased reactiveness, stress and closed-heartedness can be the results. The pressure intensifies if an existence is apparently wasted because one feels no direction and satisfaction.
Each of us is an infinite ocean, so breathtakingly vast and indescribably beautiful, that there is no need for purpose. Everyone – whether they remember or not – is Presence. The answers to the questions above can be found by going within. Then, we realize, that we are already fulfilled; that our being-ness cannot be defined, just expressed. The need to belong vanishes and one-ness is our living breath.
Life is like a jigsaw puzzle. Every piece is part of the whole. The same is true for each moment. They are never-ending invitations to share our fulfilledness by letting the moment be a movement of the Divine Love we are.
Reality is the construct of our individual and collective beliefs. If you stop the outer seeking and awaken to the one-ness and harmony you are, your completeness manifest the now…
