Unlimited Horizons
Instability Yet our superior experience is not stable. We drift in and out of this state. One moment we are deeply shaken by worries and fears that challenge us on lower levels, - and in the next our awareness propels us high above these narrow bounds and empowers us to imperviously observe them from a distant, uninvolved perspective.
The Key to Stabilizing this Stage Consciously rising above the emotional attachment to lower themes of life is the essential key to stabilizing STAGE 6. This is how it's done: If we experience just once how STAGE 6 feels like - even if only for a short time - we become able to reach it deliberately.
The euphoria we experience when entering this stage the very first time is our anchor. This unmistakable, intense feeling of serenity and inner peace tells us where to direct our emotions.
Whenever a lower level entangles us (again) in confining emotional or material circumstances, we now can deliberately choose to either keep on experiencing the familiar painful feelings or to rise above them to the serenity of STAGE 6. To rise above we only need to shift our awareness to the anchor point - to how we felt on the higher stage, - then all painful feelings dissipate immediately.
Our very decision to keep on focusing
on the higher stage is what causes our ascent.
