Reaching For The Light ... p. 126


“… live through him."
I John 4:9
King James Version of the Bible

PERSONAL 
ENLIGHTENMENT … p. 126

Whether or not the many and varied ills that beset us are of our own making is a moot point. What does matter is that we alone must find a way to deal with them. How we go about this is critical to our well-being.

However difficult it may be, we begin by acknowledging our state in life and accepting responsibility for it. In the very act of doing so our burden is made lighter.

Our other, higher spiritual self thus becomes freed as well, to reawaken our bruised soul and to give balance to our being.

The whole purpose in pursuing this course of personal enlightenment is to achieve Harmony of mind, body and soul. Only then may we lay claim to that age-old maxim, to thine own self be true. And only then will we come to know true happiness.
