The work you are doing on the inner will unfold for many years to come. However, the more commitment and focus you put into becoming your Divine Self and transcending your ego, the greater will be the transformation you experience. At first it may seem as if nothing is happening as you open to this higher light. You may only be aware that you have changed your life when sometime later you happen to notice that your life is more peaceful, that you have fewer problems with your relationships, and that things are flowing more easily for you. You may realize that your finances are better, some limitation has fallen away, or some problem has been solved. You may notice that you feel better overall, have fewer sick days, or feel less stress or tension. You may notice that you take life easier, feel peaceful and happy more often, and are not thrown off balance by life’s surprises. Spiritual progress is not usually experienced as some amazing, event-changing shift. It is a gradual awakening composed of many shifts and realizations. Often you will not remember that you ever were limited or had a problem in some area, as transforming into a higher consciousness and transcending your ego comes about so naturally and feels as if it is the way you have always been. Additionally, it can often take several years after you have opened to new consciousness, or had a spiritual insight, for this to become such a part of you that you can express and embody it in your daily life. Be patient and kind to yourself. For most people, change comes in a gradual and natural way, and feels as if they did not do anything to bring it about. In fact, for most people it feels as if their life is the way it has always been, and they do not even remember what their consciousness and life was like at an earlier time. Although the rewards of a spiritual life are usually increasing peace and harmony, a greater sense of well-being, more harmonious relationships, and abundant supply, changes in your material life are not the goal of a spiritual life. You do not draw these things to you by going after them directly. Earth plane rewards are the side-effect of living, expressing, and embodying the light and love that you are. Don’t feel as if you have failed if you see old patterns coming up. Many people found after they released some aspect of the ego they suddenly became aware of that pattern in many situations in their lives. This is normal and an indication that you are transcending your ego. Half of transcending your ego is simply becoming aware that some way of being is ready to change. Embrace these patterns as you see them arise within you and around you, knowing that this is your opportunity to transcend them. This is how you embody the illumination of your Divine Self and allow it to transform your life.
