WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AUTHENTIC?HOW CAN I BE AUTHENTIC? Authentic means to do with congruency, meaning your insides and your outsides matching. And this is a little bit cynical. That is only happening when you are a skeleton, because the skeleton is really authentic at being a skeleton.
AUTHENTICITY! Authenticity is one of those concepts that also comes from a particular type of experience. Authenticity is a state where I am not in my head trying to decide how I am going to be. I am present. I am here in the moment. And I am being without effort. Being is flowing from me without effort. That is generally authenticity.

And so if, as a whole, you understand that you are not completely authentic at your work in progress, which is another phrase we could dissect. If you understand that I am a work in progress–that there are parts of me that are inauthentic but I can be authentic about that–that is a solid foundation to build on towards authenticity. So being authentic about your in authenticity is a huge part of the journey of recovery and transformation. I think probably at the higher levels but in general.
