“I realize that I am always free to let go my obsessions when I observe them playing their game on me.”
I perceive a new kind of freedom when I observe my life and no longer feel being a dancer, choreographed and directed by obsessions and depression.
We, within ourselves, are in fact two persons instead of one. One person is who is in cycle obsessing and depression. The other person is who is observing this cycle. When we are able to cultivate ourselves into this observation –we shift our self from the position of sufferer to an observer of suffering.
The observer is detached from our emotions, feelings and behaviors. Here the observer lovingly watch our life and let us feel easy on its happenings.
The suffering aspect is the part of us which was noticing our feelings seriously –our helplessness on inability to shake away our obsession and our disappointing awe over the trauma to stay with us.
But observer in us has been observing the obsession and its trauma without itself being caught up into it. This compassionate entity is our own higher self for our own conscious care.
Our wisdom has no anxiety but our mind is full of emotions of anxiety. Our wisdom is on side of observer. The mind is full of anxiety as mind is not empowered enough to witness the observer in us.
There are strategic times in life (we usually call it timely) when we feel changed or transformed-and feel free of obsessions, depressions, even in the presence of obstacles. Perhaps we are able to call for divine wisdom those moments and attuned with our higher awareness-our own observer.
