How are we Luminous Beings?
“Luminous beings are we – not this crude matter.” – Yoda.
Sure, this quote comes from a small green Muppet in an epic sci-fi story…but that does not lessen the truth of the statement. At our core we are beings of pure energy. The meat popsicles we see running around the planet are not who we are when all is said and done.
Why does this matter? Because we are beings of pure energy, rather than these bodies we present to the world, we are all bright and brilliant. Or at the very least, all of us possess the potential to be such.
For many people, it’s particularly hard to see this in ourselves. We get frustrated by life situations, world situations, the opinions and judgments of others and so forth. As such, we see ourselves as overweight, overwrought, stressed out, ugly, stupid, disempowered slaves to the grind.
Yet we are creatures of pure energy, luminous beings. Every one of us at our core is a brilliant light…brilliant in the sense of intelligence and brightness. We are capable of dazzling wonders, each and every one of us.
Every single element of this Universe is, at its core, energy. It is impossible to create or destroy this, as the energy transmutes form, so we have almost surreal potential. But this can be difficult to recognize, in especial with so many who, in their attempts to shine brightest, strive to dim those around them.
All of us are luminous beings
Our so-called leaders come from a place of lack and scarcity, in which everything has limits. Their power is an illusion they have created, by glowing brighter in their own way. However, rather than share their brightness, they choose to believe that there isn’t enough brightness for everyone, so they work on keeping everyone else lesser.
Human society obsesses with money, social status, celebrity, power and similar artifices. But from the poorest soul in the world to the wealthiest, all of us are luminous beings. When we recognize this in ourselves, we empower ourselves to change the world we live in.
How? By glowing brighter.
Positivity is high-energy. The frequency at which that energy vibrates is high, as such. Whether high frequency or low frequency, like attracts like. Recognizing our own infinite potential, we can strive to attract more of the good and positive to us.
How? By being aware. Right here, right now, unless you are under present duress, you likely just ARE. Not good, not bad, simply being. When we surrender to the here-and-now, and just BE, we open ourselves to feeling the luminous being that we are. Away from mind, away from the opinions and thoughts and expectations of others, when we simply BE, we can change anything and everything.
The positivity of surrendering to our inner selves and just being is incalculable. No thoughts, no pressures, no judgments, just being the luminous beings we are. When we see this, and surrender to it, we open ourselves to incredible possibilities.
Finding positivity is not hard, but it does require action.
Knowing that at our core we are luminous beings of endless potential energy, we can work with this to change the world. When we work with this energy and let go of the negative interior dialogues, judgments, and outside opinions about who we are or are supposed to be, we ultimately empower ourselves. When we feel empowered, we often spread that feeling to others around us, and as such can build more positive feelings. We can use the positive feelings this generates to dissolve negative feelings. When we take away negative feelings, we open up space to let in positive feelings, and that is something we can be grateful for. Gratitude leads to happiness. Happiness is the ultimate positive attitude. Positive attitude begets positive energy, and that is always a good thing.
This is the two-hundred and thirty-first entry of my Positivity series. It is my hope these weekly messages might help spread positive energies for everyone. Feel free to share, re-blog and spread the positivity.
After more than 6 years of weekly blogging, I have launched a Patreon to garner support for these works, and more.
