JANU: It is true, our brother. Desire and commitment lead to success. Success in the sense of continuation of awakening, an ongoing process of realization. Let us be clear on this. Awakening means more aware, more conscious of, more connected to, more at one with, more at peace with, more empowered by the Truth of Life, some call the Light.
There are those who desire financial wealth, possessions, power over others, and are committed to this and, to a degree, they achieve this. But the fruits of this can be bitter and must be dealt with. The awakening we speak of takes nothing from others but enriches them and the journeyer. The darker path has fear embedded in it, the fear of loss, loss of control, being revealed, retribution. The path we speak of is fearless, is enriched by all of life, founded in freedom and peace, a love of self and others.
The choice always remains with the individual. The wisdom at the root of the choosing bears scrutiny. The harbinger of wisdom is the True Nature, an identity larger than pettiness and greed.
Desire and commitment, to what does one assign these, and why? Gain wisdom from those who have gone before. Namaste.
