The Linear Mind Cannot Understand It

Why Trying to “Figure It Out” is Keeping You Stuck

Before we dive in, I invite you to get cozy, light a candle (or a few), and let yourself unwind. 🕯️

There’s something deep I really want to share with you today.

Something that will transform the way you navigate and experience life.

You’re reading this because you’ve felt it. That undescribable experience or moment that shook you to your core. The one your logical, linear mind simply could not process or put into neat little boxes.

You are reading this because you are ready for the next step.

Here’s a little intro video I made for this post: 

Maybe it happened while you were deep in meditation, or walking in nature, or in a moment of synchronicity that defied all odds. 

But in that instant, you touched something vast and profound. Something that hinted at a reality beyond what your five senses can perceive.

And then, just as quickly as it arrived, the moment passed. Your linear mind took over again, trying desperately to make sense of what just happened.

Grasping for explanations and coming up short.

I’ve been there, my friend. I know how disorienting and even frustrating it can be when our limited human minds encounter the unlimited. 

Your linear, logical mind will never be able to understand the true nature of reality.

It can’t. It’s not designed to.

The Global Emergence of Unity Consciousness: The Ongoing Shift

I know, I know. We’re so conditioned to believe that life is a straight line from A to B. That if we just think through everything logically, we’ll have it all figured out.

That if we just think hard enough, analyze deeply enough, we’ll find the answers we seek. We’ll know if we’re on the “right path.”

We’ll have certainty about where we’re headed.

But the truth is, the most meaningful experiences in life — the ones that truly change us — are rarely linear. 

They don’t fit neatly into our preconceived notions and expectations. In fact, they often shatter them completely.

Here’s the secret the linear mind doesn’t want you to know: You are so much more than your thoughts. 

There is a vast reservoir of wisdom, intuition and knowing within you that exists beyond the intellect. 

An intelligence that speaks in symbols, feelings and flashes of insight.

When you have a mystical experience that defies explanation, it’s a sign that you’ve tapped into this deeper knowing. 

You’ve temporarily short-circuited your logical mind and accessed a more expansive state of awareness.

The key is learning to trust this inner guidance, even (and especially) when it doesn’t make sense to your rational brain.

This is the path of the heart.

Awakening the Peaceful Warrior Spirit: Your Initiation Has Begun

It requires a willingness to surrender your limited ideas of what’s possible and open to a greater reality.

So if you got to this point, remember this: the linear mind is not the end-all-be-all. Its job is to be a useful tool, not to run the show.

You are consciousness itself, having a human experience. And consciousness is far too vast to be contained by the mind. 

It will always find ways to break through the illusion of separation and remind you of your true nature.

The undescribable moments are breadcrumbs leading you back home to yourself. 

Don’t dismiss them just because your mind can’t make sense of it all. 

Instead, let them crack you open. 

Surrender to the mystery. 

Allow yourself to be transformed.

This is the path of the mystic, the path of true awakening. It’s not always comfortable, but it’s so worth it.

For on the other side of your limited mind lies a reality more beautiful and awe-inspiring than you can possibly imagine.

So if you’re ready for a new way of being, if you’re ready to access a higher realm of knowing, start here: close your eyes, take a deep breath, and let yourself sink below the chatter of the mind. 

Allow yourself to rest in the stillness, the silence, the spaciousness.

This is where the answers live. 

This is where your next steps will be revealed.

Not through force, but through surrender. 

Not through grasping, but through allowing.

Trust. The path is unfolding perfectly, even if your mind can’t see the whole picture yet.

You are held, you are guided, you are loved.

Always.

With that state, I close this post. 

Keep on being here. 

Guide yourself back to where you always where when you notice yourself drifting away.

Thanks for sharing this moment with me.
