"You weren’t lost. You were in progress.”

That line reframes everything — Maybe it’s both — remembering the light and learning how to carry it. Divinity remembered is potential; divinity practiced is evolution

Yes, affective, moral, spiritual intellectual and sociopolitical conversions (transformations) are necessary. We are not born with that.

I destroy what I don’t want to be and create what I do. I spend all the time I can on practices that increase my access to creative power. With that comes the challenge to use a blueprint designed for my best possibilities. I love that you have spotlighted development as a key to evolution. There’s nothing to go back to, only the future I design propagating across time.

Couldn't agree more. This perspective on continuous development resonates so deeply. It's like an algorithm constantly refining its parametrs, not just recalling a perfect state. Your insight on 'becoming' over 'remembering' feels incredibly accurate and empowers a genuine growth mindset. Excellent read, Jade.

You cant participate until you remember... that doesnt happen to the mind. It happens to the body that receives divine consciousness OUTSIDE of what the mind knows. If your mind is choosing what you "become"... and its not somatically integrated or aligned... then its not from your soul ...

I don’t disagree - words start to falter when we start poking around in the epistemological roots of mind/matter.

I agree. Gurdjieff and I use “self remembering” in a particular way because we are mostly “asleep”, zombie like controlled and swayed whatever way the wind blows. He would say we must first observe ourselves so we can wake up to do anything intentionally instead of automatically. Also, don’t you find that learning something deeply true feels like you already knew it had forgotten?

Are you saying that we are innately flawed and not Divine beings when born into this life? Yes, the pain shaped us, but who were we before the pain was inflicted? My personal experience and that of the clients I have worked with have been the opposite of what you talk about in the article. We are here to experience duality and separation so we can remember our Divinity and unity with Source. So we can return to love, using our pain as the compass. The awakening happens because we start to question the programming that created these patterns in the first place. Free will helps us through the process of creation, but ultimately, we are remembering our Divinity, not creating or becoming it.
