Close your eyes for a minute, then open your eyes. You should have contemplated this practical truth from just opening and closing your eyes. You can no longer focus outward and you get a feel for existence beyond the senses. Close your eyes for a minute, contemplate what you just read, and then open your eyes again to continue reading. Do this after every sentence for the rest of this exercise. You are left with the reality...the seen is small compared to the unseen. You are forced to become centered inward and travel inside. Observe your thoughts, feelings, fears, and questions. Who is observing, and who is having the thoughts and questions? We create a personality...a persona...a mask from the outward journey. Take the mask off and stay the observer. You already know. The outward journey forces you to "add" or accumulate for success. The inward journey is the inverse because you let go as you dissolve into the center again as the one...in oneness. There is no inner or outer in reality. These polarities appear as real in this world of persons, places, and things. One travels inward because they must untangle and unwind all the knots in their life from traveling outward, remove all the barriers and blockages they have unknowingly put between the self and oneness. Once the union is re-aligned and the flow is restored, the one becomes All by dissolving into oneness again. Everything you can think of leads you to happiness, and every discipline prepares you for the state of happiness...which is but an expression of love. When you close your eyes there is the union, and when you open your eyes there is the separation again. Bring the union of the darkness and the unseen into the light and the seen world. Unify the whole you and end the battle between within and without. This is but a glimpse of the real work that has to be done, the real mysteries unraveled right before you...so you can experience for yourself. Open your eyes and stay the observer in this world of persons, places, and things. Bring the happiness and messages that vibrate with the reality when you close your eyes...from that world.
