Unity Consciousness and Division

I spent the first several months of this year using oneness as my intention during my yoga practice. I chose unity because I was ashamed of the fact that I was experiencing division and I knew better. I was in the practice of looking for signs from people I encountered so I could sort them into safe or unsafe. This is a result of my own trauma experienced in the previous years. It was an impulse that was automatic and difficult to resist.

Judgement is something we do because of fear. It has a protective quality to it. However, that fear is often exaggerated or part of our illusion because we aren't fully awake.

I got my oneness in the form of an intense and very personal spiritual awakening. It is not my intention to share the details of what that was like for me (it's definitely not glamorous although it may sound so). Since this dramatic shift, I have talked to or witnessed so many others also experiencing awakenings and I found myself encouraged. Veils are lifting for so many.

And now today, while my time on social media is limited by the personal work I am doing, the division seems stronger than ever. My natural instinct is to feel discouraged. However, I think this is a symptom of the same shift I was already witness too. As the wave of collective awakening felt so massive, the trough of collective division that follows the wave will be equally as deep.

I remind myself not to be discouraged. Awakening is contagious. I have seen that with my own eyes. It's an energy. Unity consciousness is expanding.
