What is accidental enlightenment?

Most experiences of enlightenment are accidental, which is ironic in the extreme. Some souls dedicate their entire lives to achieving inner peace, only to learn the universal lesson that the more you search for happiness, the less likely you are to find it. By focusing, instead, on ending my suffering, I had accidentally landed in a state of higher consciousness without any knowledge that such a ‘thing’ even existed. I’d never heard of enlightenment and knew nothing about spirituality. At the time of my shift, all I knew was depression, darkness, hopelessness, and fear.

Convinced that the only way out of suffering was death, I considered ending my life - an absolutely terrifying decision that was almost immediately interrupted by the thought, “Reach out…ask for help.” Instinctively, I knew that this thought was not mine but a guided message from someone, somewhere ‘else.’ Even though I initially rejected the advice, I ultimately surrendered to the idea that asking for help was the only way out of the darkness. This moment of surrender was the first of many that came in rapid succession: I surrendered my victim story (memories of trauma that came from neglect and betrayal), my personal identity, beliefs, and perspectives. But most of all, I surrendered the need to blame. I accepted that life is a gift of lessons, that I am not my story, that I am not my ego…but that I am a glorious soul of love and light. A self-forgiveness exercise ignited a massive shift in consciousness, which launched me onto a beautiful new timeline full of limitless potential, joy, and peace.
