What are you seeking?
Could it be said we're all seekers?
It appears that way.
More of this, a little less of that and a half-decent explanation, once in a mortal while.
As hackneyed as it sounds, though, what if the (no)-thing that we're seeking we already are?
I know it sounds tautological, but it still has a more honest ring than another retreat, 7-step programme, or a bushel of pop psychology flooding into the mainstream.
"How do I get there?"
You don't.
Or rather you can't.
And that (for many) is why it's apparently so infuriating.
However, the surest way to know you're on to something (perhaps!) is to expect nothing, to want nothing and to accept that this - whatever that is - might be the whole enchilada.
I accept there are lots of ifs, buts and maybes but from a distance, there is certainly more to be obtained from standing on your own two feet (e.g. "What is this?") than there is, or so it seems to me, in rushing hither and thither for the answer.
Love,
Julian
