Lose the Way to Find It

"You are moving through a process, yes, and there is a kind of directionality to your moving, but it is not an evolution to some better state of being as much as it is a dissolving of that which prevents you from recognizing the truth that has always been right in from of you." ~Christopher Hareesh Wallis in Tantra Illuminated

the skies will last and earth will endure
they can last so long because
they don’t exist for themselves
and so can go on and on

so the wise soul
leaves self behind and so moves forward
sets self aside and so stays centered

isn't this because they don't have self-interest?
that they can fulfill the self

~ Dao De Jing Chapter 7

See Ursula K. Le Guin's rendition of the Dao De Jing.

"They live in wisdom who see themselves in all and all in them, who have renounced every selfish desire and sense craving tormenting the heart."

~ The Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2:55

I often feel lost, drifty, unsure. There are some things I want desperately, but that wanting seems to push things out of reach. It feels right to me that we are all One, that the divine is in us, that each of us is whole somewhere inside; there is no destination, nothing I need to obtain or do to be complete, to be fulfilled. It's a matter of seeing what's already there. And to see, you need to let go, let be.
