Threading Consciousness through the eye of the needle of the soul....

Recognizing my selfless dreaminess is finding the hole in the needle.

Consciousness is capable of recognizing the soul identity in perfect relief, because it underlies that very soul at every point of the soul's coherence.

Consciousness is the substance the soul is shaped upon and through.

So when Consciousness comes awake, the soul is directly felt and seen exhaustively in its entirety.

Consciousness apprehends the soul identity directly in its awakening.

And in this regard, I am witnessing my soul at its level of selfless dreaminess and frozen terror.

To recognize my soul at this level provides me with the opportunity to re-orient my Self as Consciousness to that which it has been locked into identification with out of patterns of survival to date.

This re-orientation requires the conscious recognition of where I, as Consciousness, have been bound and reduced to my life history and soul script.

That soul script starts to become undefining where it previously defined me.

It defined me as a dreaming, selfless soul identity precisely in order to survive my upbringing and this terrifying world.

As I awaken more and more, I come into contact with my soul objectively, in recognition, and that is the very process of threading the needle of consciousness: penetrating the conditional forms of my soul identity that used to define me and limit me exclusively, and opening them to the eye of Being, the feeling Witness.

It also means that I directly feel the contents of my soul identity where before I merely acted them out unconsciously.

This is as excruciating as it is liberating. Though I can afford to feel my soul identity directly, it is not a neutral process: it is as chaotic and up-ending as it is necessary.

Recognition is the process of being eaten by Being. It is also the process of eating my soul-corpse AS Being. Both are happening at once: I am being eaten, as my soul identity, and I am the famished, ravenous remembering Being doing the munching.

It is as ecstatic as it is crucifying.

There is no limit to the degree to which I am capable of inherently recognizing everything about myself.

This is a dream come true in Being to my previously dreaming selfless soul.
