Sexual Identity.
When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.
Question:
Hi Deepak, I have been confused about my sexuality for years, at the beginning I tried fitting myself into the lesbian community but that didn’t last long, then I tried dating men and that was okay but I had re-current sexual dreams about being with women, now the latest label I gave myself is bisexual, the mind needs comfort that it fits in in some way but I have come to realize that my confusion with sexuality is the way my identity crisis manifests itself, deep down I’m not grounded in my true being, I feel like the observer in me is watching the ego self wrestle with things like sexuality to occupy itself, but there is no true reconciliation within, I am wondering if you could give me some advice on this matter?
Response:
Sexual identity is an important aspect of who we are, but it is not the core of our spiritual self. You are quite right to see this struggle to find out where you fit in sexually with society as an opportunity and spur to find a deeper identity beyond your sexuality. Practicing meditation will give you a direct experience of your true self and that will be the basis for a genuine sense of inner reconciliation.
Love,
Deepak
