Many of us grew up in the era of the “60’s” when we were encouraged to express our authentic self and not adhere to the conformity of society. At the time we felt like we were exploring new territory and opening doors to new possibilities and adventures. And of course that was wonderful – any time we can expand beyond the limitations we have placed upon ourselves it’s a great gift.

So take a moment to consider this – John Fitzgerald Kennedy once said: Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth. However, we don’t often consider that the conformity we need to break free of lies within our own minds – rather than outside of us. Now, as spiritual warriors, you know that we seek our personal freedom first and foremost, and by this we mean freedom from the tyranny of our own mind and its limiting thought forms.

Nothing will stunt your spiritual and personal growth more that the stubborn adherence to believing that what you believe is right and that what others believe is wrong. And nothing will stunt your process more than attaching to your own thought forms and believing what you are thinking. It is imperative that we understand that our internal dialogue is simply the expression of a program and it has nothing to do with us. Even as you think about what I am saying right now – your thoughts are not your own. They are not who you are, they are not necessarily truth, and they surely will not set you free. They are just thought forms reflecting your beliefs, personal point of view, judgments and opinions.

I encourage you to break free of the conformity of your own mind. Stop entertaining the same old thoughts and challenge yourself to go beyond your limiting ideas and ideals. Once you do so, something more powerful will take over and guide your life – and that is the real you. If you start rebelling against the tyranny of your own mind like you did back in the ‘60’s – you just might find your freedom!
