There are lyrics from a popular song called “Wake Me Up”, by the late artist, Avicii, where he says,

“All this time, I was findin’ myself and I didn’t even know I was lost.”

At the time, these lyrics were simply something to dance to, as it became a “summer anthem” of 2013, and yet I sensed something more to their essence.

What these lyrics speak to, is a similar idea, as it relates to D2KS LOVE. 

When I share with people, that D2KS LOVE Offers a Self Remembering Facilitation Practice, there is often a momentary pause, where I see their mind somewhat short circuit, and sometimes the question is asked, “Why Self Remembering?”

Often times, I sense that question is asked without having a differentiation between the Self and the Personality. 

The Avicii quote equivalent related to D2KS LOVE is,

“…I didn’t even know there is a difference between my Self and my Personality.” 

Personality Identification

The ways in which humans in this lifetime have been led to identify with various labels of personality are vast. 

From a young child, it starts with the labels of male or female.  Then we may be told, “be a good boy or good girl.”  Or conversely, “don’t be a bad boy or bad girl.”

Of course, the labels into “school age” continue to be projected onto psyches at a rapid-fire pace.  Sporty, nerdy, “smart”, not “smart”, artsy, nice, bad, to name a few.

What labels have YOU identified with in YOUR life?

Continuing throughout school and into adulthood, we are taught to aspire for further labels that help define our personalities, such as engineer, lawyer, supervisor, accountant, musician, mechanic, nurse, farmer, business person, manager, director, etc.

If we get away from the path towards any of these labels above, and end up in the medical system, there is a whole other list of labels to IMPRINT onto a vulnerable psyche.  (From DSM-5, for example.) 

All of these labels have various descriptions that go along with them, which ultimately prescribe a set of “acceptable” behaviours.  The label becomes a METAPHORICAL BOX that we CHOOSE to step into.  This choice is most often unconscious.

Due to years and years of identifying with these various labels, our personalities can become defined by them and we can end up temporarily forgetting Who We Are.

YOU are not your personality. 

YOU have a personality and YOU do not need to identify with it.

Self Led Behaviour

An answer to the question, “Why Self Remembering?”, really comes down to creating Self Led Behaviour. 

As we continue the Practice of Self Remembering, we are able to move forward in this world with behaviours that are led by our True Loving Self, rather than our conditioned or wounded ego personality.

Transcendence

This photo above, speaks to the reality that many people’s behaviours, in various situations, are rooted from a tranced state of being, that has been induced through the “sit down and shut up” school environment and various other traumatic events, big and small, through media and society at large.

LOVE

Transcendence of the trance, returns us back to our natural State of Being, which is LOVE.

The short answer to the question, “Why Self Remembering?” is so that we can Live a Life of LOVE and Create Expansive Harmony in this world!
