The Inward Journey

As we make our way up the mountain of spiritual development, ever closing in on our maturing vantage point hopefully on the uppermost tip of the mountain, we can look down and view our past. If we use automatic recall, we can note several points in the journey where we hesitated for a brief moment or two. These moments, although seemingly times of stagnation to the evolution of our growth, are actually times of opportunity to ponder where we are on this quest and what lessons are being taught.

Many, when they reach these stationary points, feel stuck or unable to move forward, when in fact these are resting periods and reflections points that we are meant to experience. Rather than feeling as though we are stuck and allow ourselves to become frustrated, welcome this brief period. Enjoy the opportunity to gain a clearer perspective on just where we have come from, where we are now and where we might be heading.

These transient flashes are our quiet moments when we must reflect to ensure we have taken the right turns and to give thanks to the ongoing revelations that are presented to us. We need to take the time to make notes on the mission and the accomplishments that we have attained thus far. Do not leave anything uncovered and view objectively the course of action that you will pursue next.

Contemplate where you see yourself in the near future then set the next course you must take to reach that point. Be completely open with yourself and view yourself objectively. Unearth and expose all flaws in character and potential shortcomings that may hinder any progress. When you come to a fork in the road as you begin to uproot yourself from this moment of reflection, choose carefully which route will satisfy your hunger for knowledge and further your quest. If you veer off course, do not condemn yourself. Simply put yourself back on track and continue on the corrected path.

It will take time to uncover the truths you seek. Patience is the key to manifesting the outcome. You will once again find your way and move onward toward your goal. The route may be shadowed from time to time, but is always traversable.
