Looking beyond the Ego for Our Essence

Looking beyond the Ego for Our Essence

By Kenneth Schmitt

Post on May 3, 2026

When there is negativity in our presence, we feel unable to be joyful and filled with vitality. In our subconscious, we have established energetic blocks that keep us unaware of the Source of our life-force. We have not known the nature of our innate vitality. Although we have the free will to feel and imagine as we choose in every moment, our culture has not paid attention to qualities of our life-force. It is the pure expression of creative essence that constantly flows through us in the ways that we choose in our modulation of its polarity, frequency and power.

Because our life comes to us through the essence of our Being, we are created to be artists with our imagination and how we feel. We all do this all the time, knowingly and unknowingly. We create the beauty in our lives, as well as everything we don’t like. By paying attention to what we don’t like, we give it our life-force. It stays with us as long as we give it our attention.

The strongest creative force is our desire, and this is where we must pay close attention, if we want greater understanding of our own nature. We innately know the energy that we want to experience. This is the expression of our life-force. It is the same for all of us, because we are all the same essence of Being. Because we share our human consciousness, we can open our awareness to the awareness of everyone. In addition, we each have our individual interests and expressions.

This is as much of our script as we are given upon incarnation. We are cut loose from awareness of our origin and source, not even knowing that we are constantly creating the qualities of our lives. It is our life-long challenge to penetrate our consciousness to find out what our essence is, and what are we capable of. While living in a sea of consciousness filled with every possible experience, each of us holds and expresses a unique set of desires.

Because we have an ego-consciousness apart from our true essence, we must look beyond the ego to realize our essence and the extent of our awareness. Only we ourselves can stop us from creating everything we need or want. Our creative life force constantly fills us with its presence. It gives us the freedom to use our power of realization to shape and enliven our experiences. We can create a new world for ourselves and all who choose to align with the life-force that we recognize as our true presence of awareness.

Although our essence is present in us now within our body, it transcends time and space. It is our aliveness as a fractal of infinite consciousness. We are its active awareness, giving us abilities far beyond our wildest dreams. Its only requirement is our realization of its reality beyond our limiting beliefs about ourselves.

Looking at Our Essence and Its Presence

Looking at Our Essence and Its Presence

We’re all capable of resolving and transcending our limiting beliefs about ourselves. In our essence beyond time and space we are our personal awareness within infinite consciousness. To understand this, we must learn to direct out attention to the brightest and most loving energetic patterns within our innermost feelings. This is where we can become aware of our true essence beyond anything the ego could participate in. It is another dimension beyond fear, and it requires complete resonant alignment in order to fill our reality.

We are our eternal presence of awareness. As we align with infinite consciousness, we find that we are its conscious presence of awareness, creating worlds expressing our own vibratory presence. This is who we are in the fullness of our essence. Because we are aspects of infinite consciousness, we feel and know everything that we focus our attention on. While maintaining awareness of gratitude, love and joy, we are telepathic, empathic and have no blind spots in our awareness.

As we enter this way of being, we could be subject to still having some fear, which short-circuits our ability to feel grateful, and we lose our connection with our essence, which lives in an expanded-awareness dimension of truth and joy. In this world, we have everything we want to create at the speed of thought and inner feeling. Recreating our bodies becomes possible.

To be successful at imagining and adjusting to unlimited awareness, we can practice imagining better and better ways of living, leading us to realize what is most deeply true about us. All of our limitations are self-imposed, as are all of our tragedies and wonderful experiences. We are the constant creators of the qualities of every moment by the vibratory energy that we radiate into the quantum field and the strength of our life-enhancing versus life-diminishing perspectives and motivations. This is what makes us sovereigns. It is lack of fear with intentional gratitude and joy. This is what we can practice to be able to align with the infinite and glide into a new dimension.

For most of us, this is a valid path to Self-Realization and enables us to live within the limitations of incarnated human consciousness at the same time, but with a completely different perspective of unlimited freedom. And it all works perfectly.

Until it doesn’t for some of us. The subconscious part of our human person can be a powerful adversary in need of acceptance and training. It gives expression to our deepest feelings about ourselves, which it recognizes objectively and radiates that energy. Nothing is hidden. To make an expanding adjustment to a new reality, we must come into the light and become radiant biophoton emitters. This is our inherent essence. We are naturally beings of light from within every cell of our bodies.

For those who are becoming powerfully aware of extra-sensory input, it can become overwhelming, and the nervous system may need to reorganize. Meanwhile, there can be a period of great instability in the psyche. It’s beneficial to have a friend who understands what’s happening. In this state, we may need support to maintain a connection to our body, while also having the freedom to understand and adopt a new way of being closer to our essence.

Looking at Our Essence and Its Presence

Looking at Our Essence and Its Presence

By Kenneth Schmitt

Post on December 9, 2025

On the path to Self-Realization, we encounter everything we’ve imposed on ourselves to keep us entranced in limited awareness. Without limiting beliefs about ourselves, we naturally want to expand our awareness beyond the boundaries of human consciousness. This kind of expansion happens naturally when we allow it. It happens as we confront our limiting beliefs that keep us in conditions of dependency on others beyond our own sense of self.

We can begin to expand our awareness beyond the skin of our bodies into an energetic sense of non-localization of awareness, of just being present and being our presence of awareness. At first we can learn to sit in silent meditation in a kind of awareness of being in love and joy and gratitude about everything. Every condition is just what it is, without any judgment, preference or intent. We are the ones who instill meaning, because we are the creators. We receive impressions that we recognize and align with.

Every perception that we pay more than casual attention to stimulates us in some way. It is this stimulation that we decide what to do with. This is the part of our creative ability. As we go through life, making conscious or subconscious decisions, one after another in every moment, we shape the radiance of our energy signature. This is what we can open our awareness to. We broadcast our feelings about ourselves all the time and affect the structure of our personal environment. We are naturally and constantly on the quest of ever greater love and joy. These are the qualities of our essence. Once we feel and recognize who we are, beyond space and time, the boundaries of humanity dissolve into infinite awareness, always present everywhere and always, and available for our personal imprint, which we always provide by just being the way we are, while having our perspectives and interests.

We live in the dimension that we recognize. It’s an energetic dimension that resonates with our feelings and beliefs about ourselves. Everything we feel is filtered through our awareness of who we believe we are, and what we believe our abilities are. Here is where we can intentionally expand our awareness by passing over any feelings of contraction from fear and doubt, and opting for expansion in gratitude, love and joy. This becomes the quality of our energy signature and carries us into a resonant dimension of joyful living and creative intention.

Living Beyond Our Conscious Minds

Living Beyond Our Conscious Minds

By Kenneth Schmitt

Posted on July 24, 2025

In our essence, we are unlimited from our brains and our conscious minds. In our eternal Being, we are beyond time and space, but our ego can never believe this, because it is limited to the empirical world and lives in various levels of fear. Fear does not exist in our essence, because there is nothing to fear. We are masters of the cosmos, created in unconditional love and joy. Because we wanted to learn the hardest lessons that there are, and at the same time to enhance all of life, we helped to create a virtual reality that requires clarity and sensitivity to decipher. There is great pressure to stay within the boundaries of humanity’s limiting beliefs, which are all based on fear of the unknown. Somehow from within this prescribed reality, we intend to transcend it, by becoming sensitive to our inner knowing.

Depending on the guidance that we intuit within ourselves, we can determine our goal and align with its energetics. If we feel like transcending the consciousness of the ego, we must resonate with the consciousness that we desire. Everything has its own energetic signature, and we can feel what this is, as the radiance of its essence interacts with ours. When we realize what we love, we can align with its essence by holding its feeling in our attention. When we do this often and long enough, we create a path to realization of the dimension that it exists in. We realize its reality in our consciousness, and it becomes our empirical creation.

We've been holding back our Self-Realization. We must transform ego-consciousness by intentionally imagining ourselves living as our infinite essence, creating every condition and scenario that our heart desires. By doing this every day as much as we can and especially as we go to sleep, we are training our subconscious to resolve and transform our limiting beliefs about ourselves.

Once we realize that we’ve been living within unnecessary limitations, we can look for ways to eliminate them. First, we have to identify them and realize what they are. They’re all based on fear of the unknown, and everything about the future is unknown. We can learn to live in the present moment with just our presence of awareness. We can envision anything we want, especially what we really love, or we can be frozen in fear. Interestingly, we can be relatively easily distracted from love and joy, but we find it nearly impossible to escape from frozen fear. It stays with us, even when we have a powerful intention to elevate our focus, because it has very deep roots in our subconscious, inherited from deep traumatic experiences in the past. This kind of condition often requires an altered state of consciousness to deal with it successfully. If we let it repeat, it poisons our psyche. If we ever want to be clear, we must resolve every fearful obsession through sensitivity to inner knowing, where love, joy, abundance, gratitude, compassion and freedom abide. By aligning our imagination and feelings with these energies, we attract conditions that stimulate these feelings in us, and we enter a dimension with a predominance of them.

How can We Contribute to Change without Chaos?

How can We Contribute to Change without Chaos?

By Steve Beckow

Posted on February 4, 2025

I’d like to repost this article from Jan. 10, 2020 for its relevance to our current situation.

---

If we’re learning to use the collective consciousness, then we have to know how to contribute to change without chaos.

Let’s see what the Company of Heaven has to say about that.

Let’s start with Hilarion, who addresses the matter squarely. He says that no matter how much change there is in the external world, our essence – the Self – does not change.

Remaining as that – by remaining balanced and grounded – will stabilize the situation and thus contribute to keeping change from becoming chaos, he says.

“Yes, change is upon you, change is upon all humankind and the Earth. Everywhere you look there is change, but within you that which you have worked towards in your mastery of life to this point is still there. The core essence of your being is always there. It unfolds and expands, if you allow it.

“Therefore, that is a part of you that never changes and this is a part of you that, when taken into collective consciousness, helps to maintain the stability of the energies during these times.” (1)

So by abiding as our essential Self, we lightworkers help to maintain the stability of the energies around us. Our centeredness, groundedness, and balance help to keep things stable.

“All is unfolding, changing and renewing. It does not necessarily mean that it is not the highest outcome. It means simply that it is time to ride with it. You have the tools, you have the experience, you have the knowing – just remember this.” (2)

He’s advising us to “ride with it,” to flow with change. He says that at some level we know this.

Flow is one of the paradigms of the higher dimensions. It’s only us on the Third and Fourth Dimensions, who are encased in dense physical bodies, who do not flow.

He advises us to endure through the times when our efforts are demeaned because we who have chosen peace are having an effect on the collective consciousness.

“That which you think about, act upon and speak is affecting the collective consciousness so those who choose peace, those who choose to follow their own authentic self – do not become swayed by those who would try to demean you because you do not have the same perspective on what is occurring upon your planet at this time. …

“Soon there will be a new perspective, a greater and deeper comprehension and understanding of all that is occurring during these times.” (3)

Earlier, we listened to Matthew Ward explain how the collective consciousness and energy field of potential work. (4) The Hathors tell us that such an understanding will lead to oneness.

“When humanity comes to understand the energy at work sustaining your reality and the fact that your very spiritual essence is comprised of such energy, the oneness of your collective consciousness will be understood and the fact that you’re all interlinked and can feel each other’s energy and emotion will be understood as well.” (5)

It seems that the understanding of oneness will greatly contribute to change without chaos.

To summarize, remaining balanced is one way lightworkers can contribute to change without chaos. Flowing with things is another. Understanding our oneness is a third.

A time will soon arrive when the old paradigms will not suffice and new paradigms will arise.  We’re asked to persevere till then.

It’s suggested that we understand how the collective consciousness and the energy field of potential work. We’ll then know how our peacefulness and balance are having an impact on others; especially in our locale.

We’re asked to see how all are energetically connected. It’s said that that will lead to the realization of oneness.  In my view, our lightworker contribution of unity in the Light would perhaps be the best contribution we can make to having change without chaos.

Awareness of Inner Knowing

Awareness of Inner Knowing

By Kenneth Schmitt

Posted on May 21, 2023

We have the opportunity to know everything, beyond teachers, books, videos and seminars. It is all within our greater Self. It’s right behind our awareness, available to us as soon as we can realize our essence of Being. We can open our awareness to it by clarifying our understanding of who we are. In our essence, we live in universal consciousness and are infinite in our awareness. In our ego-consciousness we cannot imagine our magnitude. We’re just playing at being human, and we can consciously direct our creative processes, mastering the empirical world and opening our awareness to our essence beyond the body. 

Everything we could ever want is within our consciousness and is available to us to recognize and to realize its reality. Nothing keeps us from realizing that we are living in the world that we want. There are many distractions to this realization. We can learn to balance our thoughts and emotions in ways that are life-enhancing, and we can live in the vibrations of gratitude, joy and compassion. Knowing that we are constantly creating energetic patterns that we align with and feel, we can choose to pay attention to our heart-consciousness. Whatever keeps us from this realization is a distraction and must be transcended in order to have Self-Realization. 

In our infinite presence of awareness, we are fractals of universal consciousness and can create everything and know everything. We can energize our bodies so that we can leave the empirical dimension for another and return. Since our awareness is quantum, we can be in many places at the same time and in the same place at different times. We can align with 4-dimensional crystalline spacetime, while also being aware of our current human experience, which we can transform into a life of gratitude and fulfillment. 

We no longer need limiting beliefs about ourselves. They have restricted us to the empirical trance of humanity. Our reality is shifting beyond the duality of human experience. We are shifting beyond our ego-consciousness, with its negative limitations, while we begin to realize pure conscious infinity. We can participate in any dimension we choose. The opening in awareness that humanity is entering is beyond negativity. It is the living expression of our heart-consciousness and is the vibratory quality of our ascending species consciousness. 

Every possible experience in all dimensions is available to us. As humans we have the choice of living in joy and love, regardless of our outer circumstances. If we do this, our lives transform from moment to moment, according to our personal energetic signature, attracting resonating experiences.

Identifying Our Essential Self

Identifying Our Essential Self

By Kenneth Schmitt

Posted on February 4, 2023

We are so awesome, so far beyond ego-consciousness, that we cannot even imagine who we are in our essence. We can rise to the level of spiritual mastery, materializing things we want, healing the sick and wounded and even having fun, such as when Sathya Sai Baba would have the stars twinkle behind him. More than any of this, however, is our ability to enter awareness within universal consciousness and identify with the consciousness of the Creator in unconditional love and enhancement of all life. In this state of Being, we are the presence of infinite awareness through our heart-consciousness and higher energy centers. This level of personal realization opens us to such amazing, heart-felt energies, that we become radiant with joy and compassionate wisdom. We can realize our absolute sovereignty and freedom in every way. 

In our conscious awareness we can fill our attention with gratitude for the perfection of our life and fulfillment of all of our heart’s desires. We can be beyond the confinements of any beliefs in personal limitation. This is all possible for anyone with a strong intention and willingness to practice intuitive awareness. We have many things to help us in our development, things like deep breathing techniques, soul-full singing and dancing, listening to inspiring music, and aligning with the energies of the Spirit of the Earth and all of the conscious beings in nature.

With some exceptions, we were born without conscious awareness of our true essence, and we have allowed ourselves to be programmed to believe that we are mortal and subject to the control of forces beyond our own capabilities. If we are willing to be spiritual adventurers, we can question this situation and turn our attention to ourselves to seek our true essence. Our personal truth is available for each of us to realize. It lives in the conscious life force that we constantly receive through the heart of our Being. We can open ourselves through gratitude to feel this energy. It has the quality of creation and enhancement of all life. We recognize it as love and joy. 

In realizing our heart-consciousness, we can transcend ego-consciousness by filling our attention with our essential eternal presence of awareness of who we are. We can realize that we arise within the universal consciousness of the Being who constantly gives us our life essence with the freedom to use our life force however we choose. Once we can resolve and transcend limiting beliefs about ourselves, we can learn the truth about ourselves and our abilities in infinite love and creative power.
