How do I start the Ascension process?

The Ferrari of Ascension modalities is "Love".

If you want to take the fast way there, then start experiencing Love at every opportunity. This does not involve another person, except perhaps in reminding us what love is. This involves you.

To experience Love, you have to open your heart to receive it. Love is you and it is all around you. There is no lack of love in the world and no other person can give it to you. Love is you.

If you know what I am talking about, then start by becoming aware of your Heart Chakra, the spot in the middle of your chest just behind the breast bone. Be aware of this spot during the day and during meditation.

If you have no idea of how to experience Love because life has treated you harshly, then recall someone, a person, pet, or something that you loved in the past. Let that warm feeling appear and be aware of it. Now become aware of your Heart Chakra.

This is by far the best way to start your Ascension process.

After this, sit in silence, and allow Love to flow. This is such a strong and powerful experience that sometimes it can become overwhelming.
The person will often feel dizzy, release strong emotions through crying, will often become sexually aroused or nauseous.

The key is to go past these emotions and reactions and reach the state of Oneness.

It might take a weeks or months of practice to become completely comfortable in this procedure. Stick at it.

What does the process of Ascension involve?

This very much depends on where you are starting from.

Sometimes the journey is easier for someone who has not been on a spiritual or mystical path than those who have. The reason is that inevitably, those who are in a mystical path usually will have modalities they are attached to, might be seduced by things such as psychic abilities, channeling information, talking with angels as well as more earthly skills such as telepathy, the law of attraction and such.

If you are working through one of these aforementioned modalities, and have been able to help yourself and other persons with it, then for you Ascension will first involve realizing that all of the above are as real as the ground you stand on. The skills do not make you superior or inferior to anyone else on Earth, and that they are as useful as any other skill held by anyone on the planet.

The first step you must take, whether you are in a mystical/spiritual path or not, is to star working of the following:

Release of Fear.
Release of Attachement.
Release of Being Right.

Flow of Love.
Silence of Mind.
Acceptance of your essence.
Become as much You as you possibly can.

The first three, those things you release, you must do using whatever modality you find that fits you best.
The one that works for me is to go straight for the Flow of Love and Flow Love to it and myself.
This is done by closing your eyes and becoming aware of the space that is our Heart Chakra. The space in the middle of your chest, just behind the breast bone.

Depending of where you are, this will either bring up big emotional responses to eventually feeling divine love flowing into you and through you, bathing you in bliss and ecstasy.

Silence of Mind can be achieved with any meditation modality. The one I use is the simplest and, in my opinion, most effective method of feeling the air going in and out of my nose. This works whether one is in a quiet space or in the middle of a mall during Christmas shopping.

Acceptance of your essence. You are divine. You are divine love, divine wisdom and knowledge, divine experience and divine consciousness. This is who and what you are. Human words cannot express your true essence, but you will know when you feel it.

Become as much You as you possibly can. This means warts and all. By accepting yourself fully, as a human being and divine being, you will be able to live in the state of ascension where ecstasy is your primary and fundamental experience of living. You will know that everything that happens in your life is an experienced to be experienced. You will know that loss is part of life, that negative feelings are simply messages to show you where you need to work a bit more and will know that everyone and everything around you is simply part of YOU.

The Ego and Ascension

Many spiritual and psychological modalities will demonize the ego.

Don't.

The ego is a necessary "body" we need to wear in order to live in and survive in the world. It can get out of hand and is the main brake on one's ascension process.

Yet it is necessary.

We can easily identify the ego when we feel a strong negative emotion. Whether fear, anger, frustration, intimidation... all these are felt by the ego.

When I trace the feelings, I often find them in one particular part of the physical body.

Next time you feel a strong negative emotion, trace it to a part in your body and then bathe it with love.

A lot of awakened masters have huge egos. This is reflected in the us/them mentality, "my way of doing things is the only way" mentality, and a huge resistance to try or learn any other "modality". They are often "healers" too, with a huge list of returning clients who "need" them.

The ego will battle and fight to survive.

Do I have an ego? Of course I do. All humans have an ego and I exist here on Earth as a human. Does it get out of hand sometimes? YES.

I can be arrogant, or feel a need to be "right", be ignorant of others feelings and outright needy at times.

And when I feel those things, I trace it back to the source and bathe it with love. Sometimes the feelings will bite me in the ass and I will do something stupid, like argue or feel hurt.

One thing though, the battles become silly and a waste of valuable time and resources. And the times of ego become smaller and less damaging, while the times of existing in Oneness become longer.

What does Ascension feel like?

Love is the nearest human word to describe the state of Oneness.

Pure and unconditional bliss in existing as Love.

Each person ascends to the place they are ready for. Each place is unique and precious. There are no two people who have the same experience. The place is not a time/space place, but a state of being who you already are.
