We all can understand ourselves. Instead of seeing what is—our lovely, happy, genuine nature—we’ve simply covered ourselves under habits of thinking, evading, running, and being busy and distracted.
Here are Ways To Discover Your Joyful Nature.
1. Getting to know the mind, its incessant routines, repeated stories, and intricate workings
Take the opportunity to completely halt and become acquainted with your thinking. Know that you can observe anything that happens without reacting or acting on it. Rather, you can observe how thoughts, sensations, feelings, and images pass by like clouds in the sky. The mind is a phenomenon that is constantly producing thoughts, which are frequently just that—thoughts, not truths. We discover that we don’t have to identify with our experience when we learn to give witness to it.
2. Experiencing grief
The word itself seems to have a sigh and an air of unfamiliarity about it. You don’t have to go looking for grief to figure out who you are. It will come naturally if you allow yourself to have compassion and patience for yourself. And, while you may believe that once something starts, it doesn’t end, the truth is quite the reverse.
There is a clearing that makes a place for joy after this pain is felt. And letting go of old memories and unexamined “stuff” is a lovely approach to get to know oneself since it allows the genuine nature and effortless joy within us to emerge.
3. Getting to the bottom of the ego
Understanding where we get ensnared is one approach to get to know oneself. As a method to feel comfortable and secure, a part of us is driven to status and authority. Small ego, in the end, is rooted in old, out-of-date, untested stories and ideas that keep us scared and suffering.
Find the fortitude to become acquainted with the conditioned aspects of yourself that limit you and keep you stuck. Be kind to yourself. There’s no need to judge or shame yourself; all of these aspects of yourself are welcome, and everything will be OK if you hold them with compassion and tolerance.
4. Finding honest relationships with people you can trust who are as dedicated to self-awareness as you are
A good friend, a therapist, a spiritual teacher, or a coach’s insights and support can be a great resource. We begin to learn how to meet ourselves in the same way by receiving compassion, love, and support from others when we come up honestly.
