How to Awaken the Spiritual Bliss Inside
Ancient Meditation to Ignite your Divine Source of Bliss Within...
"At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want." — Lao Tzu
One of the most exhilarating adventures in life is the sacred inner journey to energetically connect with the Divine Source of Intelligence. This infinite path inwards invites us to dive deep into our innermost nakedness, where we uncover the limitless spiritual nature of our existence and the eternal wisdom that guides our entire life.
With the mere intention of having an inner exploration, we initially come into recognition with our ego. We see the river of thoughts, identities, and problems that perpetually pester us. Our awareness has the power to burn through the veils of thoughts, setting the ego aside and revealing our inherent unity with the infinite intelligence.
The egoic storm becomes calm for one minute, and in that moment, awareness penetrates the mind, and the inner world becomes clear, calm, and totally at ease. In those sacred moments, we let go of the habit of seeking. The search for a greater, better, or improved experience of life ceases, and we come to rest at the source of this moment, which is the God experience.
"You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still, and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked; it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet." — Franz Kafka
Perhaps the most exciting facet of any inner spiritual journey is being enveloped in the ecstatic state of spiritual bliss. You feel yourself surrounded by a boundless ocean of love, where every wave carries the purest essence of joy, effortlessly merging with the vastness of the cosmos. The soul dances in Divine union, free from all earthly limitations, bathed in an eternal light that radiates pure consciousness. In this sacred space, one discovers the true essence of their spiritual existence—an infinite, ever-expanding joy that transcends time and space, eternally nourishing the soul.
Ironically, no matter what we are going through in life, this incredible feeling of spiritual bliss is available to us in any moment. Yes, in every second of your life, there's a possibility for the mind to come to rest and fully surrender into a state of our purest being. It is through this perpetual letting go of thinking, doing, or trying to be human on any level that we land in the bliss of profound inner peace.
This is the doorway to freedom, ecstatic joy, enlightenment, and everything that your soul came here to experience. Why wait for the afterlife if you can have it now? An experience of absolute bliss is available this week, so let’s make time to explore it! At the end of this article is your homework, a step-by-step meditation that will guide you into the experience of spiritual bliss.
“You yourself must do the inner work, for if you look to another, you build the idol instead of bringing forth the ideal.” — Jast, Enlightened Master from the Far East
Understand that merely connecting with the Divine Source for a few seconds is a deeply transformative, life-altering experience. After we take this first step to tasting the bliss inside us, our ordinary thoughts and beliefs about ourselves and our lives suddenly have less weight. They slowly dissolve, leaving us in a state of pure awareness, wonder, and awe. These brief moments of freedom from thinking are the magic doorway to the temple of a much greater connection with the Divine.
The experience of entering a sacred temple is akin to a spiritual awakening. The moment the mind becomes silent and stops all seeking, it attunes to a higher state of consciousness that is timeless, boundless, and ever-present. We come to know that our true nature is ageless, spacious, and infinitely expansive, transcending all physical limitations. We see how Divinity doesn’t change, age, or fade; it is eternal, ever-present, and forever vibrant.
In this sacred doorway to the Divine, we are primed for the awakening of self-realization. We realize this state of bliss is not dependent on anything external to be experienced, but rather flows effortlessly like an eternal fountain from the core of our innermost spiritual essence.
“Refrain from grasping anything in your meditation, the moment you do otherness begins.” — Nisargadatta
It’s important to know that our spiritual path has no end. It is a continuous journey of growth and deepening into intimacy with the Divine. As we practice surrendering the ego to the Divine through meditation and other spiritual disciplines, we can naturally drop into the bliss state anytime throughout the day. Life has this awesome potential to change dramatically, to the point that you may no longer recognize yourself in the mirror.
As we relinquish all spiritual doubt, the ego no longer holds power over us, and we invite the Divine flow of energy in each moment and discover the perfect synchronicity that is ever-present in our lives. A wellspring of joy and happiness naturally emerges from this deep connection.
Of course, any life journey is not that interesting if it is without deep challenges. The ego habit of feeling separate and disconnected is thick and resilient. It can seem utterly hopeless on the spiritual path to face the struggles of daily physical life, as the tendency is to merge with the collective experience of the community around you, which is most likely some form of struggle, desire, or resistance to the Divine.
I call this the Divine grist, which offers us a constant opportunity for growth, freedom, and transformation. The key is to remain open, trusting that the Divine is guiding us through each phase with perfect precision. Ultimately, the path to enlightenment is about radiating our light and sharing our joy with the world. By embracing our radiance within, we contribute to the collective healing and awakening of humanity. Our presence becomes a beacon of love, compassion, and wisdom, illuminating the way for others and deepening our connection with the Divine.
"The soul is here for its own joy." — Rumi
As you embark on your personal journey into bliss by surrendering everything inside you to the Divine, you’ll see the impact your practice has by how it's reflected back to you in your relationships with others. People are deeply influenced by your inner state of being, and when you are in direct communion and communication with God, they immediately feel the field of safety, protection, and peace that surrounds you.
The more you align with your infinite spiritual nature, the more you naturally cultivate a joy that attracts those who resonate with this energy. The right relationships always come to you in their own divine timing, drawn by the magnetic pull of your spiritual self. You start being surrounded by like-minded souls and discover the support of your spiritual community. It’s essential to remain open to new people and possibilities, no matter what they may look like, trusting that the Divine will lead you to the connections that are meant for you.
"To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders." — Lao Tzu
