NTI Hebrews opens by recognizing that you are beginning to accept yourself as consciousness. It says:
By this time, you recognize that the Son of which I speak is you. There were no prophets or angels of heaven. There is only you, …
Consciousness is the source and essence of everything in manifestation just as life-awareness is the source and essence of consciousness.
NTI Hebrews also recognizes that awakening isn’t complete in you. It says:
The mind is split, but this split is not to be mourned. … Awaken the mind by being gentle to the split. Whisper quietly to it that which is your true desire, and it shall respond naturally by opening its eyes unto you.
In other words, continue to focus on your spiritual aspiration until awakening to unity consciousness is complete.
Today is a good day to review Chapter 4, sentences 1-70, in the The Most Direct Means to Eternal Bliss.
Thoughts of Awakening # 235
Identity is an obstacle,
because identity defines you
as separate
from everything else you experience.
It says you are unique,
different, stand-apart,
and special.
These ideas are in opposition
to truth,
because these ideas create
the illusion of opposition
where there is only peace.
Continue to ask, “What am I?”,
remembering that the answer
is beyond definition.
And notice that even when
you are not asking the question,
the mind is constantly answering
with ideas of defined identity.
