Being a light to provide direction so others may find their path is important, but if the light is only lit to shine on a specific path, it loses its illuminating effect…
There’s no such thing as one path to wake up from the sleep of unconsciousness and it’s just about impossible to see exactly what another person experiences because no one travels the same exact path in the waking up process. I find it quite amusing the way some people project their waking up process as being the only path. This is not to say this isn’t the path for that person, but that’s their experience and it’s very unlikely that two people let alone many, travel the same path to waking up. I just try to direct people to look inward so the can come to their own conclusion to finding what will provide them their peace. I seriously doubt that anyone went through exactly what I did to get to the place I’m in now, so why would I expect anyone to see things as I do.
One site in particular always talks about there not being no self very matter of factually as if this is the only path to experience peace. Many others use religion as the path to peace. I’ve found there are as many paths to peace as there people seeking and none of them are wrong. I don’t know and don’t really care what path one uses, it’s not my place to judge; far to many say one thing and do the opposite. Although I understand the conditioning in place is in control, I really find it funny when someone goes against what someone says because “they put it out there so it’s fair game.” To me the bottom line is to show love and respect to everyone even if their path is not something I’ve experienced. The only reason someone shares something is because it’s what’s in place, and its not up to me to judge it because it’s out there. It’s up to me to watch my own mind and make sure it’s not conditioned as this will only dim the light to the path that may be beneficial for others…
The more we grasp for answers outside ourselves the more in the grasp of fear we are. When we look outside, its only because we are fearful of what we might find inside.
