Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water; after enlightenment, chop wood, carry water; what does it mean to you?
First, let us understand the real meaning of enlightenment, does one become enlightened when one knows everything in the universe. How is it to know everything in the universe, and is it even possible?
After many years of attending, listening, participating and leading workshops, courses, conversation on spirituality and enlightenment, I noticed that many people feel that when one is enlightened one is wise, and know everything, one has the magic power within.
Enlightened is knowing about the secrets behind the universe, knowing what you know and not everyone may be at the same conscious level of understanding. Firstly, enlightened is about knowing the universe as closely as one person is able to see every single bacteria on his/her hands. Do we even want that kind of understanding in the world. Sometimes, being naive or unaware of certain things come as a blessing in disguise, while other times, being in the know satisfy the physical self of us, as human.
What does it mean
So, what does the phrase before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water; after enlightenment, chop wood, carry water really means to you? As human, many of us are here to learn simple everyday stuff that we feel may not be important for our success and yet, as a soul who has travelled and being many different lives and personalities, learning simple yet powerful emotions like love, compassion, peace, happiness, patience, kindness, perseverance, resilience are the magic that we came to this life to experience.
Once we are aware of the importance of this learnings for our soul, doing the same routine daily things would be totally different as we start to look at things differently.
How can we be enlightened or expand our consciousness to enhanced our awareness? It all starts when we start to look at the root cause of this, by simply journeying within. Inward journey and understanding yourself and your soul journey can be carried out through meditation, hypnotherapy and other alternative healing modality that allows you to see the energetic shift in action, also like family constellations and many others.
Awareness Level Changes Before and After Enlightenment
💡 Before and after enlightenment, the daily routine stays the same but the awareness level changed! Awareness level of your consciousness is similar to the lenses you view and understand the situation of life.
How would life change for you, before overcoming your limiting beliefs and after overcoming your limiting beliefs … ??
I juz realized our exterior would change, so what? Once we achieve what we want, we start to go back to a certain daily routine, but what would continue to help us achieve the high dopamine of satisfaction?
