What is the True Self?
Can an everyday person know their True Self?
Can someone who isn’t a monk, a saint, or devoted to a guru come to know their True Self?
I believe yes — if your desire is pure, you will come to realize it.
We all know Truth innately.
Truth is a resonance.
It feels like home.
It isn’t a concept or a belief. It’s an unmistakable frequency — illuminated, expansive, and free. It’s liberating. It’s a homecoming into the heart of your own experience.
To know your True Nature is to release the ego construct — your identity, your story, your preferences. It requires letting go of the programs that limit who you can be.
In all ancient traditions, there is a concept of Self at the centre.
In yoga, it’s said this centre holds the eternal, undying Light of Pure Consciousness — the light of your essence, your Soul.
This is the part of you that observes thoughts and emotions.
It is the Light of Consciousness.
It is the True Self.
To cultivate a relationship with this inner Light is to awaken to your True Self.
You become the observer — no longer identified with the trauma, programs, or stories.
You witness the waves of thought, emotion, and nervous system state without clinging to them.
You return to your centre, where you are free to live in alignment with your highest Truth — moment by moment.
It might sound abstract to know yourSelf this way.
In a world of constant distraction, we aren't taught to seek our inner Truth.
Trauma and trauma triggers shake us out of our centre.
They distort our inner knowing.
Addictions and low-frequency distractions pull us away from ourselves.
Even privilege can create a false sense of identity, power, or clarity — masking the real Truth within.
To return to your True Self requires discipline.
Discipline is not punishment — it is devotion.
It is a sacred practice — and a step in healing.
To return to the Truth of who you are is spiritual healing.
Spiritual healing is part of the biopsychosocial-spiritual model of therapy — where each layer of you (body, mind, soul, social environment) is honored and seen as interconnected.
Practices like breath and meditation help you connect to the Light at your centre.
On a physical level, they regulate the nervous system.
On a spiritual level, they bring you home.
To truly understand your True Self, you must first understand the programming that shaped your identity.
With tools like trauma-informed counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, and somatic therapy, you can discover and reframe these old imprints — and align with your most authentic expression.
Always choose a therapist who offers a safe, confidential space for you to lead your own healing journey.
