You are never lost …. #spirituality #awakening #soul #journey #fyp

How do you know that you're on your path because it disappears? That's how you know How do you know that you're really doing something radical because you don't you can't see where you're going? That's how you know But everything you have lent on for your identity As gone And so you are going to enter the the Black contemplative splendors of self-doubt at the same time as you're setting out on this radical new path So you need to know how you know where you are Portia shows how Incredibly incredibly precise it is in there That was it was the story that will be a talk to a young boy a girl that would ask the question What do I do when I'm lost in the forest? Here's the answer that they The elder gives you can feel from this how precise the teaching is the elder says stand still The trees ahead and bushes beside you are not lost Stance that what do I do when I'm lost in the forest stand still the trees ahead and bushes beside you are not lost Wherever you are is called here and you must treat it as a powerful stranger Must ask permission to know it and be known listen The forest breeds it whispers. I have made this place around you if you leave it You may come back again saying here stand still the forest knows where you are. You must let it find you You see what's astonishing about that poem as you can say There are three things in this poem. You see that are Absolutely clear. First of all the elder says you cannot sleep walk your way into your destiny You must wake up and pay attention stand still You know the trees ahead and bushes beside you are not lost you must pay attention Second stage is that Is that in this in this teaching from the elder is this incredible feeling of silence That unless you have this silence in your life and you feel the silence in the poem It says if you leave it you make them back again saying here and I think what the elder is saying there is that If you pay real attention unless you have silence An ability for silence in your body to do that then you will get too frightened Because all the voices inside you Will drown out any real change they'll you have a hundred reasons not to do to make any real change You see and you've got all the voices and all the reasons not to do it and so the ability profound For profound silence is being called on here and then that attention can can flower into something else The poem seems to be attempting to awaken a kind of intuitive sense that's right and then this amazing last line The forest knows where you are you must let it find you
