“Follow your bliss and you will come to the end of the Way. Bliss -- or joy, as I prefer to call it-- is the heart struck by the truth of its own nature. The Sri Yantra, the ancient Hindu symbol for OM, the vibration of the Universe, represents this note sustained at its fullest possible amplitude. You don’t need to believe or understand this. All you need to do is to follow the smile of your own joy. As Mary Oliver so kindly observes, “You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.” You only need to move toward your own joy as a plant’s leaves seek the light, as her roots seek moisture. Only in this way will you, can you, discover what is written on your own seed packet, who you really are.”
