Whenever you truly see another human being, your own radiance is reflected back to you. This is the sense of remembering you experience in the presence of another when you discover the essence of their being.
The secret to being seen is to fully see, to be present and truly witness another person. Often times, you are so busy curating the image you hope to project that you forget to simply quiet your mind and shine the full light of your focus on another.
Open and allow your heart to soak in the beauty of their presence. All your accolades, your achievements, your adventures, your magnificent exploits on this planet – all the things you believe make you special – pale in comparison to the radiance of the being that shines through your eyes when you simply quiet your mind and see the people around you. In their presence, you will see evidence of the divine, and they will see evidence of the divine in you.
Your grand achievements and accomplishments actually get in the way because your ego forms around this false sense of identity. The more successful you become, the more your ego-identity prevents you from being the most authentic version of yourself.
False humility is also a trap as it leaves your ego-identity fully in tact. In fact, false humility strengthens ego-identity. Release the need to strengthen ego-identity. Release the need to be seen, to feel “special”. Open your heart in full vulnerability. Allow yourself to bear witness to the magic, the mystery, the wonder in another human soul. In doing so, you will witness the radiance in your own.
