My Journey Beyond Myself
Part One — identify my voice
When 2024 pulled up to the gate and rang the doorbell a few months ago, I answered by opening the book “The Untethered Soul” by Michael A. Singer.
Mr. Singer doesn’t waste any time and begins with the not-so-simple task of awakening consciousness.
In an effort to share my journey, learn about and have faith in myself, I’m sharing my journal entries here. I respect that your life experiences and soul journeys may look very different from mine and ask only that you respect my soul journey as well.
Come to know the one who watches the voice, and you will come to know one of the great mysteries of creation. — Michael A. Singer
Lesson One: identify my voice.
Mr. Singer’s prompt: “When you close your eyes and listen within, what thoughts do you hear? What is it like to be aware that your mind is talking?”
Here’s how it went:
Me: What thoughts do you hear?
Noticing. Noticing. Noticing.
Me: Being aware of my thoughts talking to each other feels like listening in on a conversation between an old, old lady (OOL) and a young woman (YW).
YW: Who are you?
