The Youniverse

You’re welcome. 

The answer is within. I believe it is just a matter of having your own “eureka” moment(s). I’ve been through a similar process of searching as you and my desire for answers slowly but surely brought them to me, at unexpected times and from unexpected sources. I would recommend going about your day and not thinking about your issue too much. When you get that flash of inspiration- and I’m sure you will- write it down.

Part of the reason I started this blog was to write down my many flashes of inspiration that just appear out of nowhere, while I’m going about my day. My phone is filled with notes as well, all of which bring me more clarity moving forward in my own life.

The great thing about those messages from within is that they are tailor-made for each of us. They make sense to us in a way that no external voice can. That’s because they are messages from ourselves, from our own being. So I would recommend not pushing so hard for external answers and allow them to come from within whenever it is perfect for them to do so. 

Your question rises from a sense of separation, which can only occur when you have not fully connected with the core of your being. Don’t worry though, because you are on the right path. Don’t allow your mind to attempt to rush the process. You will experience some understandings that allow you to understand what I’m now saying a little more clearly. Trust that your desire is working and allow the answer to that desire to come with no expectations on how you think the answer will look.

One thing I will say is that you are not looking for things to do, as much as you’re looking for a state of being. You say you want to be passionate, so be passionate. It is a state of being you are after, and that state is only found within. Once you are that state, you will automatically find that many of the so-called mundane aspects of life, that you previously found mundane, will resonate with you on a different level, and you will enjoy life that much more. You cannot do passionate, you can only be passionate. But once you are passionate, your actions will automatically reflect that passion, in everything you do.

Don’t allow your mind to get in your way by letting it come up with a concept about what you think your life needs to look like before you can be passionate, as you say you want to be. 

The passionate people of our world are passionate about everything, from making love to preparing a meal. They are passionate about the clothes they wear and the books they read. They cannot help but be passionate about everything because passion oozes from their being. 

One last thing. You are obviously desirous of being a passionate person, so why not make that your passion? Why not be passionate about creating yourself as a passionate person? You are creating yourself in every moment in any case. Become passionate about that creation. Dive into the act of creation. Dive into understanding yourself. Dive into the choices you make every moment of every day, and make them consciously! You are creating yourself over and over, and that is all you’ve been up to anyways. So be passionate about that creation. Become engrossed in choosing your thoughts, your words and your actions. Passionately create your ideal self and then let the rest fall into place. 

Hope this helps! I’m pretty satisfied with that answer as I was pretty passionate while writing it!

Have a wonderful day :)

Hi there! Thanks for your question.

The simple answer to your question is you came here to be yourself. The pain you feel is the result of not being your natural, true self, but rather getting attached to an artificial self. You said it yourself in your question when you said some people have naturally channeled their energy passionately. The challenge to focus on for you is to realize your true, natural self.

Right now, your question is posed as if you are stuck in a situation where you refuse to get a job that makes you miserable, but cannot seem to find something that you are passionate about. It’s completely fine, by the way, that you’ve decided not to choose a job you don’t prefer. The difficulty in your choice arises when you invalidate that choice by limiting your idea of yourself. That is why you feel limited. You are free to choose whatever you prefer, including the choice to perceive a limitation on your ability to choose. 

Your issue arises when you look externally for something that can only be found within. You are acting as if you have no choice because your reality is reflecting that idea to you. In other words, your reality is reflecting that you are limited because you believe you are. This experience of limitation is created solely because of your attachment to an artificial self. 

Simply put, your true, natural self is not any one idea, but all ideas. Your true self is not who you think you are, but rather the actual choice to think yourself into whoever you want to be. I hope you understand that you are the actual ability to choose itself. That ability is inherent within you, and it is this ability to choose that you must fully accept and come to terms with. This is your infinite nature, and it is from this nature that you can choose any experience you desire. It is from this nature that you become passionate, because you are passionately choosing to experience only that which you desire to experience.

Until you realize this nature, however, you will imagine yourself to be an idea, or one choice, and you will feel stuck and limited. Limitation tends to kill passion and gives rise to doubt and despondency. This feeling of despondency then gives rise to a limited experience of reality. I hope you see the connection between your lack of internal connection with your natural self and your external hardships. 

So the solution lies within. Only from within can you see that you have a choice in everything you experience. You have a choice in how you define your reality. You have a choice in how you define yourself. You have a choice in what you do and how you do it. You have a choice in how to be. It is through your choice that life happens and progresses.

I know this may be confusing, but you’ll know you’re getting to your solution as you feel lighter, free-er, more joyful and loving. That’s the signal to aim for. 

Unconditional love is the answer, as I’ve written in a recent post. Unconditional love unlocks you from negative thinking and allows you to realize your infinite potential. The truth is that you are unconditionally loved right now. It’s just a matter of you realizing it. In other words it’s just a matter of realizing that you are now and always have been completely free to choose. 

Your reality does not limit you. You limit you. Your reality will change when you change.

I hope my answer helps. I know I have rambled on but I sincerely hope I make sense to you. If you need clarification, please let me know. 

Much love to you. Have a wonderful day!

Thank you for the follow and the kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed my post. I really enjoyed writing it!

You are right when you say all we need to do is look within. When we go within ourselves frequently enough and become familiar with our true internal nature, away from all the noise of the mind and the external world, we get in touch with the unconditional love of our existence. We also get in touch with the never-ending potential that lies within us and creates everything that we experience. When we go within we can come from that inner, unconditionally loving point of view to consciously create our expressions in the “external” world as reflections of our awareness of our true inner state.

It is when we go within that we see how we are all the same in terms of our nature, and that we are truly One being expressing in all the different ways we can, simply for the joy of it. It is from within that we create a truly loving world, because it is within ourselves that we find the love that is our true nature. Fear is the result of fixating on the differences between our expressions and creating more of a sense of separation between ourselves, rather than realizing the unity that creates the different expressions. 

Much love to you. Have a wonderful day! :)

Hi there! Thanks for the question. It’s one I’ve thought about before and I’m not sure if I have the correct answer. 

For me, I believe there is a paradox at work here in that there are surely other people in my reality, each with their own perspective and experiences, yet I will only experience my portion of them. I think it has to be acknowledged that my interaction with other people has to happen through the filter of my perspective, so I will only perceive my particular viewpoint of them. I cannot experience them through their perspective- at least not yet I can’t. I guess in this way I am creating my version of them. I also know that they are having experiences outside of my interaction with them, which makes them their own individual being at the same time. 

This leads me to my answer on your question about parallel realities, I would say nobody else can experience anything in the Universe in the unique way that I can, so in essence my Universe is filled with my experience of it. My experience is unique to me and is running parallel to other people’s experience of their own Universe. I believe each person must be experiencing a completely different Universe because they are a different person, and by definition a completely different perspective. I also believe that the different perspectives provide contrast for our own perspective to stand out and become experiential. So in essence each of us creates our perspective and all the opposing perspectives as well, so that we can actually experience our localized distinct bodily perspective. Without the contrasting perspectives we wouldn’t be able to experience our own perspective as its own unique perspective. 

To sum it up, using your question as an example, my answer may make sense to me but may not make sense to you at all, depending on your perspective. Your perspective creates a completely different experience of my answer, with your experience probably having more to do your perspective than the answer itself. In other words, I could have come up with a more clear answer, but it may not have mattered to someone with a different perspective. They may ignore it or misunderstand it, because they are having a completely different experience of it. 

I hope I provided some clarity. I admit it’s a bit foggy, probably because we’re dealing with a higher reality when trying to answer these questions. The answers may not make sense to our physical minds, which like to experience clear “this or that” answers. This one is a bit in between. It’s more “this and that” instead of “this or that”.
