Thank you, it's very beautiful. This part I most especially resonate with:
I can relate a lot of what is written there to my own experience, and I'm sure others can as well.
Last summer, I went through a really rough patch financially and, out of work/contracts, it forced me to sit down and question the incredible fear I kept alive within me, the fear of lack. This fear of lack shaped the world around me in ways that I would never have any extra penny and I had a really hard time not falling into debt. I realized during that period, a period of surrender and reflection, not only of our deepest nature (beyond the concept of soul: pure consciousness, pure everything and pure void at once) but also that everything I needed could be provided to me, so long I let go of that fear. I started meditating more regularly and shifted from a life of fear to a life of daily gratitude.
Now, not only is my situation much, MUCH better, I can also appreciate every little road block on my path, analyse it and understand why it is there and what lesson it can teach me, all without pain. I am now grateful for each lesson which comes my way as they help me grow and understand.
Truly, Q'uo know what they're talking about
Quote:To those to whom that glimpse has been given, no suffering ever seems so hard again, for those are the ones fortunate enough to grasp the deep reality, which is that in terms of the deeper desire of the heart they have not been unsuccessful at all, but instead successful beyond their dreams.
You see, my children, the movement in development of personality is from the surface of things, deeper and deeper into them, until finally the seeking and the sought become one; one thing, so that you are not meditating, but finally you are the meditation, and this meditation is your perfect poem, your arrangement of your consciousness, and you know in an instant that this consciousness is the gift which you shall give to the Creator, and so no longer can you feel unsuccessful.
