“Intuition – Vehicle of the Soul”

Yoga 8676568 1920

The evolution of humanity always involves an evolution in consciousness. This evolution is dependent on the development of soul awareness. Becoming our soul is the goal of all human endeavor, whether we recognize it or not. This higher part of ourselves seeks expression through us in many different ways and contains within it the various qualities we each aspire to, such as loving understanding and freedom. It is the soul that is the embodiment of these qualities we seek. We normally perceive ourselves to be a combination of thoughts, feelings, and a physical body, and we can view this as the vehicle of our expression and what we therefore experience. The primary vehicle of the soul’s expression is what is known in the traditional teachings as the “intuitive body”. Intuition as it is commonly understood is a knowing, or sense of things, in terms of our feeling nature, and it is generally vague at best. It is vague because it lacks the full expression of the heart and a higher mental understanding of purpose. These two aspects of consciousness are experienced simultaneously at the soul level of awareness, so intuition can be understood as a coming together of the mind and heart and what the two create together. The easiest way for us to comprehend this level of awareness is to understand the importance of being in the present moment. Let’s take a look.

Our inability to access and utilize our intuition is largely due to our perception and experience of time. This is a major limitation for us as human beings and is overcome through progressive alignments with our souls. These progressions are expansions of consciousness that develop the intuitive state of being. The majority of our experience as physical beings is spent with our minds going back and forth between the past and future. This mental activity is exhausting and unproductive. Our goal is to find the middle area between the two, and this can be found in the present moment. This is where we need to place our awareness and attention in order to be productive in our lives. How do we accomplish this?

The best way to develop an intuitive state of mind is through meditation or contemplation. This is not a requirement in terms of our evolution, but it does speed things up considerably! Meditation is really about calming and slowing the mind. A calm and clear mind is required in order for us to make that soul connection and therefore know what is available to us. Real problem-solving and emotional healing can be found in the development of this skill. Intuition is not an activity, but a state of mind or state of being. The wisdom, love, and peace we all seek already exist within us and can be accessed through our awareness of the present moment. In order to conceptualize what the present moment actually is, try to understand it from the soul’s perspective by considering the following keywords:

Oneness
Timelessness
Beingness

This level of soul consciousness may be a way off for most of us, but our willingness to develop it will get us there! Keep it simple. Simplicity is practicality. Everyone can set aside five minutes a day to sit quietly and relax. There is no complicated program or set of steps required here. Being able to find a few moments of peace every day is an enormous achievement, but we have to do it! Thanks for your time and consideration today.

All my love and support, stay safe and be well…
