In the NIV version of the Genesis account, god is typically referred to as “God Most High”. In my experience god is often sought after in places of extremes, physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. I believe it could be an extreme high or an extreme low. Based on my current understanding, god was depicted as a figure that was high to represent his power and authority over all of the earth. I believe it is supposed to show that god sees all, hears all, and knows all. I believe this perception of god high in the sky, high in the heavens allows people to be comfortable that something knows what is happening within them, to them, and around them.

The god on high is aware of everything, understands all, and expresses authentically. I believe the questions we have, and the known/unknown secrets we hold are important for humans to become what they are destined to be. I believe this questioning what’s beyond, from a physical and spiritual standpoint, involves a connection within oneself and the world around them. I believe rooting and building from your understanding of your spirituality will give you the awareness to embrace god. I believe spreading your branches to cultures around you can help you find what you desire most. I believe showcasing your creative leaves to those around you can give you an emotional high like no other.

I believe the god on high can guide us to what we are becoming. I believe the god on high can transform us into our future selves by observing and aligning with their spirituality. I believe the god on high can transform us through expanding our perspectives through sensing the different cultures around us. I believe the god on high can transform us, inspiring us to express our own artistic vision, bringing to life our imagination for a unique purpose.

Becoming Transformed

I believe connection is very important and allows us to branch out to different aspects of ourselves, archetypes hidden under the surface. Having a connection to yourself, others, and the god on high could be what could help spark the next part of your spiritual journey. I believe connection also gives us clarity, into our own lives and how our lives are impacted and impact the world around us. In the United States and the world as a whole, there is a lot of change, a lot of chaos, and I believe connecting with the god on high in times of transition can relieve ourselves of the mental stress that is cultivated.

On the Highest Self Podcast, Sahara Rose chats with a transformation expert, Mimi Bouchard1. Towards the beginning of the episode, Mimi shares about the beginning of her transformation journey, and how complicated she thought the process was going to be2. Mimi had her eyes set on transforming and became obsessed with the idea3. Mimi was in a different place than she once was and was starting from nothing4. Mimi states her family didn’t come from a lot of money and she didn’t know how to make ends meet5. Mimi felt stuck, self-conscious and hated herself, so she dove into personal development6. Learning all she did about personal development was overwhelming for Mimi, there’s so much to do and so many different ways of doing it7. Mimi reflects on the past eight years, and how she’s continued to transform8. Mimi condensed everything to a simple formula, in a form of activation that works for her9. Mimi started to believe that transformation doesn’t have to be hard, and strongly affirms what you believe becomes your reality10. Later on Mimi shares that she was looking for a radical transformation, from under $10 in her bank account to hundreds of thousands in a month11. In addition, Mimi was also looking for her dream partner, she was looking for a completely different life12. At the time, Mimi didn’t believe meditating was the answer for her reaching her goals13. Mimi tried to meditate, but would never be able to check it off her to-do list, cause she didn’t want to do it and didn’t see results from it14. Mimi had a moment of intuition in her apartment, to take a moment, record a voice memo of her visualizations and play the audio in everyday moments15.

Mimi shares a lot about how she transformed her life into becoming what she is today. Mimi wrote down what she wanted into the air, replayed it numerous times, and manifested what she sought out for herself. Mimi aligned herself with her vision and acted to make her dreams come true. Mimi created what she wanted for her life, how she wanted to impact others, giving herself a purpose that fulfilled her holistically. I believe this is something we could all do as we begin the year. I believe aligning and acting are the first steps to becoming your future self.

Becoming Renewed

From a Biblical perspective, prophets would communicate with the god on high through forms of prayer, meditation and journaling. From my understanding, the Biblical account was kept to maintain traditions and history, but I also believe there was another purpose of the collection of journals. I believe this gave the authors the ability to understand their reality, understand their relationship with god, and remember the past experiences with god. I believe writing out their revelations from god, helped the authors connect themselves deeper to their spirituality, depending on their relationship with the divine, and aligning their beliefs with their intention.

On the Sadhguru Podcast, Sadhguru shares how to overcome one’s mental mess16. Sadhguru opens the podcast telling us about navigating life successfully and effortlessly17. Sadhguru believes the most important quality to navigate life is to have clarity, seeing things just as they are18. One of the most important aspects to navigate life is to bring an enormous sense of clarity to one’s life19. Sadhguru elaborates further, clarity allows the murkiness and muddiness of your mind to settle20. When your mind settles, you are able to see things the way they are, and are no longer a slave to your karmic past21. Sadhguru says clarity allows one to see things as they are, without the influences of the past to cloud your judgement22. Sadhguru closes stating only when you remove the cloudiness of remembering the past, can you live a fresh life, allowing you to become meditative easily23.

Sadhguru’s message is similar to Mimi’s message, the power of finding clarity, either through meditative practices or through affirmation practices. Taking moments, while the earth rotates, to be present with yourself, recognize your past traumas, and reimagine what you want your life to look like. I believe it is important to not forget the past, but to honor it, to grow out of your slavery of the past and step into your future self. I believe spiritual growth will result from one’s ability to align and act with one’s manifestations and remove the cloud of judgement over one’s life.
