Awakening comes from within, not from external sources from "summary" of Atmamun by Kapil Gupta, M.d.
The notion that awakening originates from within, rather than from external sources, is a fundamental principle that must be understood deeply. Many individuals seek enlightenment, peace, and fulfillment from external entities such as books, gurus, or experiences. However, such pursuits are often in vain, as the true essence of awakening lies within oneself. When we look externally for awakening, we are essentially searching for something that is already present within us. The external world can offer guidance and insights, but the actual awakening process can only occur from within. It is a journey that each individual must undertake on their own, delving deep into their own thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. External influences can provide temporary solace or guidance, but they cannot bring about lasting transformation. It is only through introspection, self-reflection, and self-awareness that one can truly awaken to their inner being. This process requires courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to confront one's deepest fears and insecurities. Awakening from within is a deeply personal and intimate experience. It cannot be rushed or forced, but must unfold naturally and organically. It is a process of shedding layers of conditioning, societal expectations, and false beliefs to reveal one's true essence. This unveiling of the self is a profound and life-changing journey that can only be undertaken by the individual themselves.- The concept of awakening from within emphasizes the importance of self-reliance, self-exploration, and self-discovery. It is a reminder that true fulfillment and enlightenment can only be found by looking inward, rather than outward. By embracing this principle, one can embark on a transformative journey towards inner peace, wisdom, and awakening.
