Epiphanies Unveil Truth and Alter Life in a Flash.

burning heart, epiphany

Eureka! Aha! Bingo!

The lightning flash of inspiration. The unasked for insight that suddenly appears. Emotional confusion, resolves. A long sought for answer, arrives. In the space of a heartbeat, life evolves.

Learning happens in as many ways as there are individuals. From not at all, to a tortoise or hare pace, anywhere in-between and beyond.

Epiphanies are cosmic light-jumps, a non-linear recognition, able to touch the heart, and bring to light profound knowledge.

These comprehensions are soul-shifting.

The size of the epiphany does not matter. Even the smallest understanding shifts who a person is, how they think, feel, and all subsequent action. Rather than judge, appreciate the transformation. Consciousness grows according to its own nature. Taking delight in the mystery of experience, life and relationship nurtures the process.

For epiphanies are not once-in-a-lifetime moments, even though they happen once. Each epiphany, though the understanding and results may be different, are always the same. It is a deep realization, an alignment, happening within oneself.

The meeting of self-to-soul.

An opening to the deeper aspects of life inherent within the universe, and each living being.

Epiphanies happen.

They are never able to be forced to occur. No amount of thinking, hard-work, study, or effort will make an epiphany occur.

Rather, one must prepare and anticipate the understanding. Studying must be done, the work needs to be engaged in. This is the way one asks for the epiphany. The receiving, the understanding that comes from the effort, is always in relationship to the effort. The actual epiphany is always a surprise.

Epiphanies take time to mature.

They are cultivated within the subconscious, within the body, mind, heart and soul.

Visualizations. Intention. Work. Diligence. Energy. Heart. Soul.

These are the groundwork for epiphanies. Just as seeds are planted in a garden, epiphanies take time to root, grow and blossom.

An epiphany can be a light-switch, clearing darkness and granting instant clarity.

It still takes time to wire a room so the switch works. A lightning flash can reveal the surrounding, a specific environment must exist for lightning to occur. Epiphanies are akin to lightning, flashes of spiritual insight that happen for everyone, yet strike more frequently in supportive, intentional environments.

Epiphanies can be cultivated.

How? There are so many different techniques. Engage in whatever inspires your heart, that causes laughter, that brings joy, contentment, and fulfillment.

Believe in yourself.

Act on that faith.

Follow through.

Eureka!
