THE ANALOGY OF THE BIRD IN THE CAGE

I am sure you have heard about this analogy sometimes.

It is often used in spiritual philosophies and also in new-age practices.

I don't know why, but today I wake up with the impulse to write it to you, and same as I do with my posts, lectures, videos, and all I deliver, every time I feel that urge I simply follow it, without question because I know there is someone out there that needs this information.

“Imagine a bird in a cage. That bird has been in the cage for years, so long that simply can not recall it. The cage is all the bird knows, is his home, his environment, his identity, and what the bird believes is ALL THERE IS.

But one day something happens, and suddenly the door of the cage is open. Some external force opened. And now the birds do not know what to do. For a moment he stands there not understanding what is a door? Why suddenly there is an opening, where it is possible to access another place, another dimension.

Now the bias….if you were that external force that opened the cage, how you will better support the bird in his new environment? if you push the bird to fly right away, most probably won't, as the bird has been in a cage all his life and does not know how to fly. He does not know how to provide himself with food or how to survive in that new dimension.

But if every day, you show the bird a few glimpses of that dimension, if you take it with you and help the bird to fly while supporting him in your hands, then little by little the bird will gain awareness of his new environment and what is most important, that he can fly.

He will finally be conscious that he has wings, that he is free, and that there is a new whole dimension for him to explore.

Well, my friends, this is what life is currently doing with us. Suddenly the cage is open, and we are very much afraid. But if you pay attention to the signals that life has been giving you, you will know that is training you to be ready for this new dimension of yourself to “BE”.

I am happy to continue to grow together and prepare us to fly into this new era that is quickly opening for us,
