Track 12. Who Has Entered My Inner Space?

The next time you feel depressed, unbalanced or contracted, turn your attention inside, become aware of the state of your inner world, and ask yourself, ‘Who is in here?’ or ‘Who have I let in?’ You will be surprised at what you understand from this simple inquiry. Hint: If there’s someone with whom you’re somewhat obsessed, or even thinking about a lot, it’s likely that they are ‘inside you’. You should remember, however, that sometimes this happens in the unconscious, and when you discover who is inside you, it comes as a revelation. Ask, ‘Is it my mother? My father?’ ‘My spouse?’ ‘The culture?’ ‘A false or limited “I”?’ ‘Some imagined person who views me critically?’ Once you find who it is you’ve let in—and you can also find how you have weakened yourself to enable them to come in—politely ask them to leave. Now call on the Self, God, Guru or Consciousness, and ask that your inner space be expanded and empowered.
