About authenticity – what, how and all that. (Or Being Yourself)
Authenticity is a state of being that brings you the most joy and enjoyment. Anything you enjoy doing or being, is a part of your authentic self. Anything you don’t enjoy doing or being, or are indifferent towards, is something that society put in place for you. Enlightenment is a process with a purpose of cleaning your authentic self of external influences and forced habits and pursuits that do not belong to your authentic self.
The Authentic self could also be described as the truthful self – one that doesn’t lie to oneself or others (but especially oneself). Your authentic self is not necessarily kind, calm, spiritual, loving, caring or even happy, your authentic self may well be mean, vicious, sarcastic and enjoying every minute of it. You will not attract a True Emotion Mirror who loves the demon in you by becoming a meek image of a Buddhist, no matter what anyone says.
The level of authenticity that we display now, can be less or more authentic than what you have been before in this lifetime or in a previous lifetime. To reconnect with the way that you are, it is a good idea to try and reconnect with your past lives, and especially the bad stuff – because that tells more about you than any pretended kindness that we so eagerly now cultivate in this cultural background. Political correctness is murder to your authentic self, and to your love life. Not that I’d say your authentic self would necessarily have to be mean, of course not, the question is this: Which do you more enjoy, saying things as you see it, or being kind about it? What you enjoy is a function of your Authentic Self. It’s not any more complicated than that.
Your Authentic Self is not set in stone. It changes as you like it. If you think you’d much rather be something else, you start enjoying something else. That becomes your Authentic Self, your Authentic Goal. It is in constant evolution and it’s only purpose is to find the height of your enjoyment at any given time in your evolutionary state. Authenticity is not a question of spiritual advancement, it’s a question about Who You Are Right Now, in This Moment, and nothing more. This is the person you need to be in order to attract a True Emotion Mirror, who is also evolving towards the person they enjoy being.
To show who you are in your Authentic Mode is the key to True Mirror unions. You have to bravely let your True Mirror into your secret world, the hidden part of you that rarely gets out with anyone but those who are your closest. The running phase is a sign that you are not brave enough to show each other your Authentic Selves, which includes telling them exactly how you feel for them – revealing the inner you. You have to allow them see what you enjoy, what you like, what moves you – because these are things that move them, too, but they are just as scared as you are, that these things make them look stupid and unlovable. The things that we are most likely to hide from them are:
– Sexual desire.- Sexual fetishes.
– Mean thoughts.
– Our real sense of humour.
– Our feelings concerning them.
These are the MOST LIKELY things that we hide from each other. What is worse, we often hide this stuff from ourselves. We might be completely unaware of a lot of these things. That is why we have to do that spiritual work, and trust our intuition to take us where we need to be. Nobody can tell you what your Authentic Self is like – apart from maybe your True Emotion Mirror.
Have you noticed how we all try to be “cool” and “right”. We hide what we truly enjoy so that we wouldn’t appear stupid or unfashionable or heavens forbid – bigoted. That is what is at stake here – to become brave enough to tell people (especially your True Emotion Mirror) that fuck, I like playing Barbies or I like eating ice-cream straight out of the tub (well, who doesn’t, really) or how much you love anal beads! XD Anything that you enjoy is important. All of it. Every single detail. Learn to figure out what you love and learn to enjoy knowing it – be proud of it, and then, show your lover who you are.
