DIVINE TIMING is it even real? - my view on divine timing.
Most people have learnt to see Divine Timing as something out of themselves, something out of their control to which they have no choice but to conform to. They know their desires are coming, but not until the "time is right", whatever that means.
But time is an illusion, or more precisely, the linearity of time is an illusion. Yesterday, tomorrow, are just arbitrary terms humans created. And rightfully so, it would be impossible for society -and humans- to function properly in this 3d world without it. However, this conception of a lineal time is all but useful when dealing with spiritual matters.
From a spiritual, metaphysical, and even a quantum perspective, past, present and future are all existing together as one at this very precise moment. Only the now exists.
Under this lens, divine timing makes absolutely no sense. If all of time is happening right now, then how am I supposed to receive my desire at a certain divine timing? if all time is happening right now, why should I be waiting around until the universe decides it is time for me to have my desire?
My desire is mine right now, just as your desire is yours right now.
There is no number of days, months, years that ought to pass. But rather a series of circumstances that DO ought to pass. That is what divine timing is for me. A series of circumstances that will ultimately lead me to my desire.
But these circumstances are far from being bound to the rules of time, they're free of any preconceived moment in time for them to occur; no day, no hour. They all just exist right here and right now. But of course, because we live in a 3d world, it makes our experience of it lineal.
Before you can live in the mansion of your dreams, travel each week, and eat the most exotic food. There are things that need to happen, both in the 3d and deep into your own mind.
That's what divine timing is for me, is about WHAT (needs to happen) rather than HOW (much time before it happens).
And although it does makes each WHAT "arrive" at the PERCEIVED perfect moment, it never is a matter of HOW much time, that's merely our perception...
I love putting my faith in divine timing, I believe and trust in it so dearly because it makes me feel certain, I know that every little thing that happens is leading me exactly to where I need to be to "receive" my desire. "How much time" depends entirely on me, on my beliefs, my frequency, my state; on me taking inspired action.
To have this understanding of what divine timing is, makes me not only feel certain but powerful too. Because I just know, that I'm always moving in the right direction, that my desire is a certainty so no amount of doubt can take that away from me, I just gotta keep going.
So, yes. Divine timing is real, but not in the way you probably thought it was.
IS THE EGO REALLY THE PROBLEM? -IDENTITY AND EGO IDENTIFICATION AS A TOOL.
I think we all know what defines identity and therefore ego, to put it simply; ego refers to the way in which we see ourselves. Is the idea of I, whom you believe yourself to be, but it doesn’t stop there. Identity and ego also encompasses the sum of all the beliefs you hold about yourself, your personality, your abilities, your worth, and your value. Your place in the world, relationships, work, and just about everything that makes up a typical human life.
Identifying yourself only by those qualities is when problems can begin to arise. Depending whether the beliefs that frame your identity are positive or negative, or more precisely useful or not. They have the capacity to either become an ally or an enemy.
The problem with ego identification begins when the beliefs that you hold about your own identity, start to restrain and slow down your own self-growth. When those beliefs prevent you from reaching further stages of improvement and progress in your life.
If you hold a belief about yourself that you are shy and have troubles communicating with people, then quite probably, you won’t be capable of getting a promotion at your job, because that higher position requires a very specific skill, public speaking. And you’re not quite the type to speak confidently in front of a group of people, are you? so don’t even think about it.
There lies to issue.
A huge truth, that I had to realise on my spiritual path was that of “your identity is just a construct, it exists nowhere but in your own mind, thus, it can be changed”. It can be changed to better fit, and to better serve in aiding you to get what you want from life.
Identity isn´t rock solid, it is in constant movement, always changing, whereas we realise it or not. Or tell me, 5 years ago, were you the same person that you are now? I hope not.
Your beliefs about who you are should always be in alignment to that what you want in life. And remember that you have the power, always, to change them.
Start telling yourself you are a confident person that always finds the right words and it’s always able to communicate effectively. And in no time, you will see and feel the shift. You will get that promotion because it fits who you are.
But it doesn’t stop there either, this constant changing and shifting has the capacity to, eventually, make you feel dazed and confused, you could end up with an identity crisis. Because if there is no real you- because the concept of you is always changing- it never settles…then what am I? Who am I?
This is when it comes down to finding that something —unchangeable in nature— that makes you, you. Finding that something, that transcends humanity and physicality.
This is when we find religion and spirituality. Because it gives us something that is beyond us, beyond our own minds, it gives us something consistent, unchangeable. That part of us, that will always be there, will always remain steady, if that is something out of our capacity to change, then it must be the ultimate truth. Who we really are.
Becoming conscious of this transcendental truth gives us the wonders of being given security. Because if the truth is, that I am an infinite spiritual being, a divine consciousness, pure unconditional love (and many other names people have given it) then my individual experience of an identity must be nothing but a tool. A tool that I get to play with so as to get exactly what I want from life.
My identity and ultimately, the beliefs I hold are the key that will unlock the door to a new reality, a reality I get to choose.
What is the reality that you want to be living in? Do your current beliefs aid you into opening that door? Or on the contrary, they are stopping you from ever reaching that door? If it is the former, then congratulations I have nothing else to say to you. But if it is not the former, then you better get to work. Change your beliefs, change the way you perceive yourself to be, awaken to your ultimate truth.
You have the power of ego identification; humans are the only living beings with that power. Can be a dangerous one tho. So, use it mindfully and be clever about it. Use it to your benefit; to build instead of overthrown.
But how do you do that? How do you change your beliefs and mould your identity? Well, there are certainly quite a lot of different techniques out there, techniques I will be covering in future posts.
Right now, I just wanted to get this piece of information across. An essential piece of information. The very first thing you should be aware of when attempting to manifest a new reality for yourself.
As a last thought, learning to see your identity and beliefs as what they are, a tool to help you live your life to the fullest, is literally life-changing. Stop wasting this tool.
As for right now, we’ve reached the end of this blog post. I hope it was useful, eye-opening, inspiring. I would love to read your thoughts about it. And remember you can always help me out by liking and sharing this post.
With nothing else to say and with much love, write to you next week.
In manifestation, it doesn’t matter how small or how big your want is. Because there is no such thing for the universe, whether you think how significant or insignificant your want is; it really isn’t, because it all comes down to nothing but your own perception.
Be brave to elevate your wants. Only the divine is the limit.
