Your inner being—your soul or higher self—is not something that you have. It is what you are.
Your complete consciousness is your inner being. All of the so-called parts of your mind —the conscious, the subconscious, and the superconscious parts—are all facets of your one, complete consciousness, your inner being.
Your conscious mind is the result of your inner being focusing attention upon the outer world through your physical brain and senses. When, instead, you turn your attention from the outer world toward the inner world, you access the resources of your inner being.
Your inner being possesses all of the wisdom, understanding, and strength that you will ever need. It is your ultimate, personal resource. Your inner being is also your link with the universe and with the consciousness behind all life, Infinite Being.
If you think of yourself as living your life like a performer on stage, then your inner being is like the backstage technician who makes sure that your performance has all the support that it needs to make everything happen on cue.
The amount of knowledge and wisdom available within you is unlimited. In order to access it, you only have to make an intention to go within and find it.
Your subconscious mind runs all of your biological systems without conscious effort on your part. In fact, if you think about it, the subconscious mind of an ant knows more about biochemistry than today’s leading scientists. Your inner being knows even more; in fact, everything about anything you want to know anything about. The trick is to ask the question and then silence your conscious mind enough to hear the answer.
When you become consciously aware of the true nature of your inner being and its resources of wisdom, understanding, and strength, you begin to dissolve many of the former limitations to your growth. The key to expressing your human potential is to know that all potential lies within you and you only have to open an external channel in order to begin to allow that unlimited potential to flow out into the world.
The power is within. To become empowered, you don’t have to become something new. You only have to realize that you already have that power within, then allow that infinite inner potential to flow into your life.
