We all want the same basic things: Love, Happiness, Security and Companionship. When these things are absent or threatened we suffer, physically and psychologically. Virtually all conflict and struggle, internally and in our external world, is a result of our endless pursuit of these basic needs. And yet ironically, while we may find fulfillment of these needs from time to time in our possessions, relationships, careers, family and friends, everything outside of ourselves is transitory and will inevitably shift and dissolve leaving us once again feeling empty, insecure and unfulfilled.
However, just beyond the grasp of our mind lies a limitless and eternal ocean of love and joy, waiting patiently for us to tire of our external pursuits and cast our attention inward. To discover this inner wisdom we have to forget everything we think we know and become completely vulnerable and inept. While many will dance about at the gateway to this Nirvana, few have the willingness to let go of all they know, all they have and all they are. It calls for a spiritual warrior; fearless, determined and relentless in the pursuit of the highest truth of who you are.
While no path, teacher or practice will carry you all the way across the threshold of Freedom, these pages will hopefully provide useful and practical pointers to help you to discover the obstacles that seemingly block your 'progress' along the way. With practice and constant attention to your inner state you will begin to glimpse the immense love and joy and peace that lies just beyond the grasp of the mind, in the Heart. You will discover that 'That' which you have been seeking was within you all along...
