Trying to tie up all the loose ends and finally getting it right is rejecting a lot of life’s basic experiences. The essence of life is it is challenging. Sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter. Sometimes you are tense, sometimes relaxed and open. To live life fully is to experience each moment as completely new and fresh.
No one spiritual system is superior to another. Each of us should have a philosophy and practice that works for us and should be happy once we find it. We should help those who are interested in the spirituality we believe in, but none of us should behave condescendingly towards other’s practice.
Can you let go of dualities and embrace life without skepticism or panic? Then you will be able to reach the heart of oneness. Avoid thinking of the Oneness as unusual, exalted, sublime, transcendental; it is beyond all that. It is simply the direct essential and complete truth.
During the process of development, progress frequently comes to a standstill. There might be an obstruction owing to one’s lack of experience or exterior circumstances. In this situation store up your energy, preparing for your next move but remain calm and persistent.
Quote: Do not entangle yourselves with the multitudes and keep to your principals.
