Pain means things may no longer make sense. You may feel chaos, anxiety, and tension. A sense of loss, groundlessness, and depression may engulf you. Things may no longer seem as clear as they had been.
This state of crisis may really be an opportunity. It may be a portal to a deeper reality and a deeper experience of self and selflessness.
Unfortunately, people on the spiritual path customarily create patterns of seeking which are almost identical to dysfunctional patterns of childhood conditioning. The key is to release the spirit to do the work that spirit knows how to do. And the way to do that is through deeper understanding and relaxation.
Relaxation and understanding opens your spirit and allows the truth of your life to come through. This is less likely to happen if you try to force the issue by an exercise of the will. Each of us has to learn how to turn life's circumstances over to our spiritual self and permit our spirit to give us direction! To put it another way: The spiritual path contains a recognition that there are things we don’t know how to accomplish, handle or understand. That is just the way it is. If you accept this as true, become more adept at “non-doing,” let go of control and turn the mystery over to spirit, what will emerge is greater clarity and understanding.
My deepest personal interest is to make a difference in people’s lives. If what I offer is appealing, I trust that together we will make a difference in your life.
