Line Up all the Forces

We spiritual travelers have an agenda like everyone else. It might be a noble goal like we want to be free, enlightened, or one with the universe, but we have the same problem statement like everyone else. We feel that we are "here" while we want to be "there". So we keep on adjusting, changing to get to our goal. Yet, it is hard to step outside of oneself and experience the "beyond". So a lot happens below the surface deep inside of our subconscious.

Subconscious     dark side               Synchronicity, Guide


A spiritual journey starts in earnest when you start perceiving or feeling things that connect you with the beyond. We experience synchronicity or receive sudden insights. This is certainly a beautiful experience and gives us the confidence that we are on the right path. Yet, there is also a darker aspect about our journey. We are suddenly part of a community of beliefs so we are in danger to negate aspects of ourselves in the name of spirituality only to find that the disowned self comes out at night. We discover our shadow self.

Don't be afraid of the shadow experience. Be willing to look what is inside. Unravel all the conflicted energy that is within. My experience traveling the Way is that our spiritual journey is all about lining up all the forces within and channeling them in a direction that is meaningful to us. Discover the dark horse within and let it run in a direction that makes you happy. This is your Way - you expand the spiritual frontier by discovering who you truly are deep inside and expressing yourself in a beautiful fashion. Line up all the forces, conscious, subconscious, ego and spiritual and let it rip! That's what a spiritual path is all about.
