Being Like Water

A swift-flowing river lined by riverbanks of wild flowers

Last night I stumbled across a video on YouTube that mentioned we should be like water as we go through spiritual awakening. Hold on, I thought, I’m sure I wrote something about that a few weeks back. Sure enough, when I looked at Notes on my phone, there was one on 22nd July 2025, with the title ‘Being like water’. This is what I wrote:

The process of awakening is slow. It requires patience and perseverance. This doesn’t make it hard, it just means taking a different approach to daily living. It requires slowing down and not being always anxious to get busy ‘doing’. Instead, it’s better to wait until you have anchored in your new consciousness and learnt mastery of your awareness. By taking your time, you are less likely to slip back into the stream of your old life structures and beliefs, your current way of handling life.

Spend time learning to just BE, to feel your Beingness, so that your ‘I Am’ becomes your default state of feeling or frequency, before you leap into Doing.

Feel the tides of the energy, sense the big waves coming in that force you to lie down and let them wash over you, absorbed by your physical and energy bodies. Allow your energy to flow like water, then you will know what you need to do; you will know your soul purpose when you gracefully surrender.
