RESURRECT YOURSELF

‘Resurrection’ means to rise again, to wake up anew. At some point, we were all awake. To be ‘awake’ means to be fully present, real, and whole. It means not to sleep, not to dream.

Consider that the default state of human existence is dream-walking—living inside our own narratives, filtering reality through our judgments, unaware of our subconscious and unconscious influences, believing that what we experience is an accurate reflection of an external truth.

This way of being inevitably leads to suffering, unhappiness, and pain. And in our attempts to avoid these, we react—often in ways that create even more pain, for ourselves and others.

We do this on a small scale in our personal relationships, in our professional engagements, and on a large scale in our societies and the world at large.

It is not a pretty picture. But at the very least, it is an honest one.

WE ARE SUMMONED TO WAKE UP!

Waking up is not about adopting new perspectives or switching sides. It is not about rebelling or retreating into victimhood.

WAKING UP is a profound transformation.

It requires opening our eyes, shedding illusions, leaving behind projections and fabricated narratives, and having the courage to accept what is. The remarkable consequence of this process is resurrection—the resurrection of ourselves as conscious beings.

In the resurrected, awakened state, we experience life as it truly is, in its wholeness and presence.

We have been conditioned to believe that if the world were as we think it should be, we would be happy and free of suffering. Because we cling to this belief, we endlessly strive to reshape the world to match our expectations. But the truth is, everyone has a different idea of how the world should be, which inevitably leads to conflict and perpetual struggle.

Those who are awake do not seek to change the world. They may help others wake up, yes. But they see that peace, harmony, and happiness cannot exist among those who remain trapped in dreams.

As Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.”

To awaken is to hear the music of truth, beyond illusion, beyond deception.

RESURRECT YOURSELF!
NOW, NOT TOMORROW.
