One question.

The path to freedom is within us.

Let me say that again:

The path to freedom is within us.

The path to freedom is within us.

The soul's yearning

to be reawoken does not escape any of us.

It stirs, it nudges, it pushes.

Yet.

Our minds provide resistance.

Our bodies provide resistance.

To protect us.

From danger. From pain. From, at times, being.

Within us is a light.

So bright, so powerful, it can never be extinguished.

Being

is living in that light.

from that light.

with that light.

in coordination, collaboration and movement with that light.

Our minds resist.

Our bodies resists.

To protect.

From pain.

For when your light shines, others' pain is awoken.

(Why can't I? (They can.) What's wrong with me? (Nothing.))

They begin to ask.

And force.

And fight against your light.

(They don't see theirs).

So you stop being.

You protect.

With good reason.

Years of build up of resisting.

When you resist, you protect your body and mind.

It's quiet now.

You're safe. Your body doesn't need to protect at the moment.

Your mind doesn't need to protect at the moment.

Settle in.

Your soul is speaking.

It craves something.

Will you listen?
