Hi,
Seeking is a word often applied to the spiritual path,
and many are proud to call themselves seekers. The problem is that
seeking may become a chase that takes you outside yourself.
To seek productively requires that you throw out all
assumptions that there is a prize to be won. This means acting
without hope of rising to some ideal self, hope being a wish that
you'll get somewhere better than the place you started from. You
are starting from yourself, and it's the self that contains all the
answers. You must also discard fixed judgements about high and low,
good and evil, holy and profane. The one reality includes
everything in its tangle of experiences, and what we are trying to
find is the experiencer who is present no matter what experiences
you are having.
Next posting about how to seek within coming
soon...Thanks for reading!
Cheers,
Wen Shih
