Discovering your authentic self

In the end, what counts most is how much love you gave, how compassionately you lived, and how confidently you released what wasn't meant for you. Discovering your authentic self is the ultimate goal.


You will also have much more stability in your life as you will no longer depend on others for fulfillment. Your emotions and reactions will not be volatile and you will actually become detached (but not uncaring) from a lot of stuff that goes on in the world Love is the ultimate building block of the entire universe. Humans are born into the arms of loving parents and die with their loved ones around them (ideally). They live and die by love alone. Your ability to love yourself and others is all that really matters. How to get there is another matter entirely. For this, you have to find out who you are and love yourself unconditionally.

Finding oneself is a journey of shedding illusion, peeling away layers of programming, and forgetting social behaviors and attitudes. The concept of the ‘self’ has been described by many names, but labels aside, it can be defined as who you truly are. This journey of self-discovery can be challenging and uncomfortable at times, but ultimately it leads to a deeper understanding and acceptance of oneself. It involves questioning beliefs and values that have been instilled since childhood, and learning to distinguish them from one’s own authentic thoughts and feelings. This process also requires acknowledging and releasing past traumas and limiting beliefs that may be holding one back from reaching their full potential.


Furthermore, finding oneself is not a one-time event, but rather an ongoing process that evolves throughout one’s lifetime. As we grow and experience new things, our sense of self may shift and change as well. It’s important to embrace this fluidity and not hold onto a rigid idea of who we think we should be. Ultimately, the journey of finding oneself is a rewarding one. It allows us to live a more authentic and fulfilling life, and to connect with others on a deeper level. It requires courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to explore the unknown, but the end result is worth it.
