How be yourself?

How far can you be yourself through all your relationships, your obligations and roles in society? How to succeed in being yourself, not by you in defining your various roles, but compared to what you deeply? Such questions reflect a definitive conclusion to be wrong, smothering you in or of great interest to a quest to align your being.

The first step to answer this question, "How to be self-same? Is to ask who are you now? This will make you aware of any packaging that you coined the traves ages while realizing that you either drag your past or whether you always try to be what you need or want to be, ie in the future.

"We are so conditioned by the past that we do not find the new road" to advance Krishnamurti. You are conditioned by values and principles of family, social, religious, political and cultural. It's up to you to decide what is really your being. As you make your values and principles instilled in your life. You have the right and even obligation to question what really suits you. You have accepted without saying any word to meet expectations and be approved by others hoping to make you completely. If you are planning to comply, that you believe that then that was your way of life in some form of security in the hope you do great work.

Never forget that you've been educated as hi was realized in the future, in what should be rather than what was living in the here and now by appropriating your feelings, your values aligned with your being. Failure of success or guilt stored, you dwell on your past to know what led you to be what you are today. So the original question back surface, how be yourself?

Unfortunately, all our knowledge be based on norms, principles accumulated over time. The man is a slave to his thoughts, his past traditions. "You accept the tradition because tradition, imitation, conformity is the guarantee of security. Therefore, "to reveal Krishnamurti.

To be oneself, it is necessary that you turn to you, to what is within you at this time as to all other present moments of your life. It is by observing what is happening at every moment and listen to the resonance of your feelings you'll manage to take ownership of what is good or not for you. It is necessary that this observation is realized by the complete absence of your thoughts because they are packaged. Go beyond the simple mental reflection. The observation is not a mental analysis of what you do feel. The observation is done by listening carefully to what is in you and what it expresses in a harmonious alignment of your feelings.

The third approach to respond to this questioning is to raise awareness of what frightens you. The fear comes from your thoughts, your packaging. Fear of disappointing not to respond to what is and what is accepted around you. Observe carefully your fears, because they may reveal many truths of which you are afraid to acknowledge. This exercise will free several packages not aligned to your being.

Often it is mentioned that it takes courage to look, to take stock in yourself. Me, I would argue that for many, it became a matter of survival. If you love enough, you find the energy and strength to observe what happens in you face your packages and what is happening around you right now. "Love is always new" raise Krishnamurti. Thus, more than an act of love and courage to discover what you are for yourself.

The greater time and more space for the answer to "How to be yourself? 'Is always to be present in the here and now. This present moment is always new. It's your flow of thoughts that bring the present or past you into the future. Succeed in silencing the flow of thought to give any space to your feelings. Listen attentively without judging, interrupting, and compare them so you can find your own answer, the real answer to what you are.

It is a gesture of love to you and a gesture of freedom with respect to your packages, your fears and meet others rather than yourself that you arrive at your authenticity to be . Everything is in listening to what happens in what is in each moment. Being present at this time, being present to yourself are the means to achieve it.
