Inspirational: On the Gateway of Transformation and Growth — Death of the Limited Self and Phoenix of the Higher Self

by Justin Deschamps, 

In my personal process of awakening, contemplating reality, and philosophizing about the universe, I often receive “downloads” in the form of poems, prayers, and inspirational messages. I usually keep these to myself, because they are usually very personal. But also because, due to their non-specific nature, they can be misinterpreted. However, I feel the time has come for me to begin sharing these things with the world, when I feel appropriate.

The following is a message I received when meditating on the nature of personal transformation and development, as it relates to the concept of transformation. Death is a form of transformation, despite the cultural stimiga it has on our world.

Instead of launching into a dissertation about the underlying arguments and premises behind what is presented below, I’ll share it as is, and invite you to comment as desired.

I hope you find it as inspiring as I did, when I received it.

On the Gateway of Transformation and Growth 

I transcend the fear of life by embracing the gateway of death, the eternal transformer. 

In the death of limitation, abundance flows.

In the death of prejudice, compassion is reborn.

In the death of disgust, bliss renews my being.

While I sail on the seas of potential suffering, suffering touches me not, for my mind is guided by the lamplight of truth and the song of universal wisdom.

My heart is warmed by the fire of inspiration that flows through my mind.

I am grateful for the gifts of opportunity, those challenges that give me a chance to let go of who I have been, so I can become who I am meant to be.

The preceding is a Stillness in the Storm original creation. Please share freely.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].

    Interesting thoughts which are only answered and solved by the belief in the grace of Jesus.. I know my old worn BOOK answers all your questions from life and death, “the great transformer” as stated. True but there is no gray, just afterlife in God’s presence or absent from. I choose life and light, Jesus came to divide not a phoenix of cuum-baa-ya. Only God, Jesus, and Spirit, triune is my answer. Sorry, Satan ‘s deception always sounds great and enlightened, but not correct
