A Lesson from the Spirit

“You do not want to listen when you speak yourself.”

They show some volcano, a sleeping volcano. Then lava bursts free, spills everywhere, destroying all around. Everything burns.

“Why does this happen?”
“You do not listen to yourself when you speak. It’s not just about your conversations. It’s about hearing yourself.”
“What does that mean?”
“To hear yourself is to hear the echoes of your own soul within you, to hear the echoes of your own consciousness left in the space, to hear those prompts that come to you.
When all the space speaks, you close your ears, thereby not hearing your own voice in it. By denying this, you deny yourself, for you are in that space. You are that inner voice that cries out to you, you are that voice of the outer world that cries out to you.
By denying yourself, by denying the outer world, you do not allow yourself to be, nor do you allow this world to be. When you begin to think in the paradigm of the existence of a single consciousness, you will achieve harmonious coexistence with yourself.
What is the volcano? It is you yourself. With your dissatisfaction, with your denial, you generate mounting pressure inside yourself and pressure from outside, which at one moment, in an instant, can lead to an inevitable catastrophe, to the destruction of all that is a manifestation of yourself, a manifestation and continuation of your story.
To awaken does not mean to lose your boundaries. To awaken means to realize the unity of the Spirit in everything.
