Hello everyone, and welcome back to Awakening the Divine Within.Today we’re going to explore an idea that really lies at the heart of this entire series.Our first episode was about the emptiness so many people feel inside. In our second episode, we looked at the spiritual crisis behind many of the problems we see in the world.But that raises another question. How did we get here? How did humanity become so disconnected from its spiritual source?I believe part of the answer is surprisingly simple: We forgot who we are.And that is why I call this first section of our series The Great Forgetting. Humanity has forgotten its divine nature. Now, when I say that we have a divine nature, I’m not saying that everything we do is divine. Obviously, it isn’t.We make mistakes. We become angry. We hurt one another. We make selfish choices. Sometimes we know better and do the wrong thing anyway. But our mistakes are not the whole story of who we are.Behind the personality, behind the fears, behind the mistakes and all the experiences that have shaped us, there is something greater.There is a divine spark within us. There is a part of us that came from God and remembers God, even when our outer mind has forgotten.This perspective completely changes the way we look at ourselves.Most of us have been taught to identify ourselves almost entirely by our human experience. We say: This is my personality. This is my family. This is what happened to me. These are my strengths. These are my weaknesses. These are my successes. These are my failures. And eventually we construct an identity out of all of these things.But what if none of those things represents the deepest truth of who you are? What if you existed spiritually before all of those experiences shaped your outer personality? What if there is an original divine pattern for you?Well, there is. And this is where the life and teachings of Jesus become so important.I believe one of the great misunderstandings about Jesus is that we have made him so different from ourselves that we sometimes miss the very thing he came to demonstrate.Jesus showed us what happens when a human being becomes completely aligned with the divine. He embodied the Christ. And when I use the word Christ, I’m not using it simply as another name for Jesus.Christ is a universal spiritual reality. It is the divine consciousness that connects the human soul with God. This Christ Self is our true identity that is meant to exist in the world, just as it did with Jesus. Jesus embodied that Christ consciousness so completely that we call him Jesus Christ.But he also called us to follow him. Think about that. To follow someone means that there is a path we can walk. Jesus said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.”That is an extraordinary statement. He was pointing toward something within us that we have largely forgotten, ignored or even, in some cases, denied.Your Christ Self is sometimes referred to as the Higher Mental Body. You might think of your Christ Self as the higher spiritual part of you that already knows who you are in God. It knows your divine potential. It knows what you are capable of becoming. And it continually calls you upward.We may not always hear that voice clearly because there are so many other voices competing for our attention. Fear has a voice. Anger has a voice. Our past has a voice. Other people’s opinions have voices. The culture around us certainly has a voice.And sometimes all of those voices become so loud that we can no longer hear the quiet direction of our own higher self. But it is still there.This is why spiritual awakening is really a process of remembering. It is remembering: I am more than my past. I am more than my mistakes. I am more than my fears. I am more than what other people have told me I am. There is something divine within me that I am here to discover and express.And I think this is especially important because religion has sometimes emphasized human imperfection so strongly that people have developed an identity based almost entirely upon being sinners.Certainly, we make mistakes. We misuse God’s energy. We create karma. We need forgiveness and transformation. But Jesus did not come simply to tell us how terrible we are. He came to show us the way back. Remember what he said to the woman who had been accused? “Go, and sin no more.” In other words: Change. Rise. Become something greater. He did not define her forever by what she had done. And neither should we define ourselves forever by what we have done. There is a profound difference between recognizing our mistakes and making those mistakes our identity. The spiritual path asks us to take responsibility for what needs to change while remembering the divine potential that makes transformation possible. And that changes everything.Instead of saying, “This is just the way I am,” we begin asking: “What am I capable of becoming?” Instead of saying, “I ...
