There is nothing wrong with belief because in order to know what we are trying to discover; it must start with a belief. Knowing is surety without a doubt, a fact. I am going to explain belief and knowing based on self-understanding.
When we say believe that is saying that we are not 100 percent sure. If someone asked where is John? Someone may say I believe that he went to the store, that is not knowing if he did.
There is also something called personal beliefs, which can extend into to our self-belief. Our personal beliefs can be challenged so that we grow and mature inwards, to become a better version of ourselves, this way we change our reality. The word believe is be-lie-eve, meaning to give a lie to eve. This is why beliefs are supposed to be challenged, because your beliefs are not always 100 percent true about your full potential.
Once we stop believing and shift to knowing, this puts us in the moment of Now. WE must learn how to become self-aware. Past experiences are moving many, but to be present we must be in the Know or now. If I understand my past then I can bring myself to the present, Now.
My old personal beliefs are the old past selves that I moved forward from. I used to believe that I had to change people, this issue caused many problems. I was once stuck in my past because of my bully. Being bullied in my past later made me believe that I was not good enough, meaning that I am still not present.
I spent time trying to make others be who I wanted them to be, I was now a bully by being controlling. Now that I understand my pain, because I have changed, I am Now a person that uplifts others. I am in the Know, by being present, the now moment. I am getting to Know myself on an intimate level. The past is no longer raging in my head anymore influencing my thoughts. I found my myself.
The reason why it is a challenge for us to create the life that we want, is because of what we believe about our potential, how we feel about ourselves create our reality right now. Look around you, everyone and everything we attracted in our lives and our accomplishments is based upon our self-worth, which is an extension of our self-belief.
That is why I tell myself, I know that I am worthy, I know that I am beautiful, not I believe that I am. Believing that I am worthy will make me just think that I am, not make me FEEL worthy so I behave that way. Yet I had to at least believe it to experience it later by my actions too, not just thinking it.
I remember believing that was odd, no one would like me, and this is why I kept losing women. I once believed that I was weird, but I had to change my personal belief about myself. I had to take time to observe my thoughts, witness the negative ones that made me feel bad inside. To change my thoughts instead of trying to be someone else. Instead of believing that women will not accept me, my new thought is I am interesting and attractive inside. I began to feel attractive because I was Now finally present. I am the definition of who I can become now, by accepting myself right now.
Getting to know yourself better is key, and I understand that this takes time. When you let go of your old past beliefs, this brings you present which is a Peaceful gift.
When you are aware of organic natural healthy foods vs processed foods, you are in a different time and world vs people who are unaware, who do not know. You have become present just because you are aware of the quality of food. Many are still moving and still living in their past, not current about nutrition.
Religion is about belief, it is about having faith and believing, no one is sure what Jesus, or the Virgin Mary, even the prophet Muhammad looked like. Google all the pictures you can find on any religious figure, you will see that there are so many variations to the Christ's face. Religion is just edited from spiritual systems, half-truths. In western society, Racism and man-made Religion cause division in society. We are spiritual beings having a temporary human experience, being close to your spiritual being can bring you to experience your inner knowing.
There are many belief systems not knowing systems, because we do not really know, so we have to believe it first, then later know it through personal experiences and inner discoveries. Whatever you feel is possible is only based on your personal beliefs. We must open up our hearts to experience the knowing Mind.
When you know, it is because you feel Present, the Now moment gives us a peace of mind.
