You are a good judge of everything in your life, including you.
You are the undeniable authority on you. No one can tell you how to be, or do, anything in your life.
It is only presumed by lesser beings that this idea could fall away and be of use to not have held tight in our jaws, set strongly like determination. Only the strongest know of which I speak, for they hold their sovereignty as sacred and powerful.
Without this principle, humans fall to shreds. There can be no strength in them if they do not trust themselves. For their strength will fall away when they question themselves and have no answer. Their purpose becomes secondary and trivialized. They become small and wandering, uninterested in anything but the clear call of pleasure.
How can we develop this faculty? Trust in ourselves must be grown, like a cultivated garden. Tending it every day brings us the faith to see it is valuable as the summer setting sun- delicate, supremely beautiful, overwhelming in its divine nature.
We find ourselves set up in a kingdom of faith, in which we reside and rule as well.
Examples of how we raise our self trust, and our confidence in who we are comes with long practice. It is not a lightswitch, it is a road. The travel can be swift and light if we open ourselves to the teachings of one wiser than ourselves. We might learn from watching how another values their time or their identity. We are free to copy or contrast if we dissagree with their example offered.
So for example you follow a friend, a Guru, lets say, on this sacred path. You witness they are strong and they stand up to you when you argue with them. This is a beautiful gift. You are not being shown a path on which you must cave in and accept their words or ideas. You are being shown that they value their ideas, and hold them sacred. You are given an opportunity to find space for both, your sovereign ideas, and their sovereign ideas. They do not need to be identical - there is no reason to abandon either. Both may exist side by side without any difficulty. Indeed it is a wonder to hold both and allow all to be comfortable in this space of deep acceptance.
Another example might be asking for assistance from a greatly loved family member, a parent, lets imagine. They offer you their wisdom. And you find their ideas painful, as they cross your own and seem to shame you. Do you leave suffering, crying? No indeed. No, no, no parent asks you to harm yourself with their loving insights. They ask you to consider this blind spot. It can not harm you to see the truth. You only hurt when you throw away yourself with the revelation.
Think about someone you know who is very strong in their knowledge of themselves, very powerful. You can say anything to them and they simply regard it calmly. If they become heated, it is small and quick and over before any harm happens. They are powerful in their ability to create their world, few obstacles can upset or derail them from their purpose.
I hope you witness the unfolding joy when you take this path.
All shall be revealed to you in time. Self alignment Is one of the foundations of all work within and without humanity.
No one finds this joy without finding first their faith in themselves. Without this, how can they know faith at all?
