Behind The Mask

Through the course of my time with Kosmic Fusion Sree Maa Shri Ji played many roles.

In 2016 everyone was asked to reveal who they were and during this phase the need to be authentic and be in utmost integrity was very important so that we could all experience transformation at a higher level.

One of the exercises that i did together with Sree Maa was called voice dialogue which helped to bring forward the disowned parts of the self or ego. Sree Maa lovingly supported me out of utmost Compassion to guide me through an exercise.

During these exercises Sree Maa and i were in dialogue to assist me to transform the Narcissistic parts of the personality that were blocking the True Self from blossoming. It was always about Transformation and Awakening.

For the Soul to take the front seat it was paramount that the ego self was explored and quietened. Sree Maa was able to help me to breakthrough the shades of Narcissism that i was hiding.

I will forever be Grateful to Sree Maa for helping me to break out of the mental prison that had tormented me for many years, many aspects of my self deprecation came to light. The deep inner wounding could finally be healed.

I hope by sharing my experience it can also help others who are struggling with their own issues.

Below is a great article that i found on Quora.com which explains this in more detail.

“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.”
-André Berthiaume

All of us wear a mask, and our masks change based on the situation or the person we are interacting with. We behave differently with our friends, relatives or with strangers.

The reasons for wearing masks vary based on the circumstances, but there are still some common reasons why we tend to hide behind masks:

  • Hiding our weaknesses: Many of us wear masks to hide our weaknesses. We behave in a way that does not expose our weakness to the world. We wear masks to hide our pain, as we do not want the world to know how vulnerable we are from the inside.
  • Selectively exposing our strengths: Different situations require different skills and strengths. Sometimes, we need to portray our strengths in a different light based on the situation. There might be cases when we need to expose some of our strengths, while hiding the other strengths.

Wearing a mask is not necessarily negative. People can use masks to bring out the best side of themselves based on the situation.

The issue, however, arises when people become so used to wearing masks that they start forgetting their true selves. When they start losing their original identity, and the mask becomes their new identity.

Your Pain is the Narcissists Bliss

The Principle foundations of Kosmic Fusion were to remain the non-doer this was always part of the original philosophy taught by Sree Maa Shri Ji. Dallia was constantly asking questions about the doer saying that she didn't get it. Dallia was always introducing doubt into the minds of the FiTs. This constant undermining of Sree Maa Shri Ji's teachings was a subtle manipulation and projection to maintain a position of power within Kosmic Fusion. I remember having a conversation with her when she came to Australia in 2015 where she was questioning me and implying that Kosmic Fusion was a cult. She really had been thinking about this for a long time. What was interesting was that Dallia was given the choice to leave when ever she wanted however she did not take this choice. She then invited herself into the Ashram in 2016 to live and began to take the lead in all the events. At that time i was sharing some on line meditations with Ekta and Dallia began to edge me out, to...

The Non-Doer

The founding principle of Kosmic Fusion was to be the non-doer, eventually i began to volunteer for events and expos and in 2014 Sree Maa Shri Ji stopped travelling to events and were energetically present at all events. Unfortunately due to some of the volunteers thinking that they were now "in charge" of the events, things began to unfold in a very toxic way. In the group there were several members with  narcissist traits, that's when the havoc began. As we know narcissists love to create chaos and havoc with their many tactics of flying monkeys, devaluing, blaming others, anger and retaliation. They literally suck energy from others around them and Enjoy causing pain confusion and distress to others. Little did i know that i was about to be the next target of a narcissist and began a long journey of being set up as another victim who was going to be used abused and discarded. Below is a really great article on the Cycle of Narccissm idealize-devalue-discard...
