Until I realized there is nothing to seek

The truth is already here

And the way to its Source can not be found by actively seeking

I feel like the main lesson on the journey from mind to heart, ego to soul is learning to s u r r e n d e r

Yes there is work to do

We can (and need to) put the effort in

We need to be willing to actively embrace honesty and truthfulness with ourselves, and that can be hard work

Commitment + consistency will be required

But at some point we’ve done all we could

There is no more discipline to perform there is no action to take that would move us beyond the veil

And we are asked to surrender

To trust the unknown

To let go of all concepts, to accept that there is no maps no guides to take us any further

This is when, I’ve come to learn, all we can do is to r e l a x

To release the attachment and let go of all attempts to control the outcome

And trust the heart

Over the mind

Mind clings, mind wants to be safe

Heart knows we are safe, heart knows we are loved

For all that we are in this moment

Awakening is available in the here and now

In our breaths, in our bodies

Of course the process is unique to everyone

But more often than not, it is not something we can achieve by doing
