Truth, by definition, is trustworthy.

You can trust truth. You must trust truth.

Otherwise, we let our defenses down, and begin to trust the truth of others — which, in almost all cases, leads us astray. Even when it comes from those who we look up to and consider superior.

There is none superior other than the One that lives within the heart of your heart. (Pause on this for a moment please.)

In deep Silence, you can know It. It speaks, guides, points, suggests, and sometimes pushes you towards this or that thing. You could call it intuition and you’d be right, but it’s an even deeper experience than that.

When we trust this truth — “our” truth — we live our life. We occupy our flow. We move into the seemingly scary creative unknown.

Of the scary inventions this world has to offer, the creative unknown is least among them. Let’s be clear about that.

It seems scary only because we listen to the mind’s thoughts. What will happen? Will I be ok?

These are thoughts of weakness and embraced long enough, will stifle and repress your creative energy, causing chronic anxiety, escalating eventually to suffering and crisis.

All paths lead to the Self, as Ramana Maharshi has said. All paths leads to you occupying your Self — trusting your truth, and letting it lead you, wherever it wants to go.

We transition from panicked passengers to empowered captains. Life becomes miraculous.

While we are not in control of our lives, we can control our attitude surrounding this fact, and find a kind of control — or, mastering of the currents beneath our feet.

Most fear means you are distrusting your truth. Turning away from your Self. Why?

It simply beckons you to come back home and meet the glory that awaits.
