Meditation On The Fool's Journey

All is a void - a swirling mist of many colors. There is no beginning, there is no end. The feeling of unconditional love abounds - there is no fear for decisions made or not made, actions taken or not taken. All experiences are looked forward to with serene anticipation - with the knowing that what is to be will be.

Forward from this mist we move - heaven and earth connect and action is taken. Through sound, through word, the world around us begins to take the shape we give it.

The mist is changing color - the vibrations are deepening. Knowing from ancient times is being revealed - knowing from many, many lifetimes.

A sense of peace abounds - a sense that at the heart of the mist lies the soul of creativity - all cycles completed, prosperity and abundance encompass all.

From this abundance comes a sense of responsibility over others - a sense that the infinite good be developed and shared.

Further into the mist we walk - going further and further into the heart of our own nature. Here we form our codes, our laws, or "realities".

At the same time, we are of the mist and apart from it. We are healing, we are uniting the male and female aspects of our inner and outer lives.

We have come to the point of dealing with the self - of knowing with certainty that how we dress, how we speak, how we present ourselves determines whether or not we will succeed. We come to take charge of our own being.

We come to know that the gentle and loving path is the one that will stand us best. We come to know that we are all made up of many parts - and that all of these parts need to be acknowledged. Therein lies the source of our inner strength.

We draw inward to find our way - not out of fear, but out of a calm knowing that this is what must be. Here we find spiritual healing.

This strength of spirit allows us to flow with the cycles of life - with the ups and downs that are brought to us. We see the past, present and future as part of a whole - intrinsicaly bound together as one.

Through the mist surrounding us, we see that past actions have brought us to where we are now. That the wheel of life is one of Karma. Through Karma - we begin to see the balance that is brought to our existence.

And so we are stopped - neither going forward nor backward. The thought comes through the mist that to look again - to open our eyes and see anew - will show us our options - the ones that were always there.

And so we invite transformation - we set aside old thoughts, old ways of responding, to make room for new thoughts, new ways of responding.

We learn to walk the middle road - to avoid excess and to heal the voids in our life.

Through our healing, we learn to free ourselves. We look at that which binds us, and recognize that we ourselves put it there. In this act of recognition, we learn to move beyond our fears.

Sometimes the moving beyond is done for us. Our life foundations are ripped away so that we can see the illusion that they consisted of, so that we can reconstruct ourselves upon a better foundation.

Out of this comes change for the better - hope for a future with possibilities. We are gifted with the power and the energy to create whatever we wish.

The balance comes with the gift of seeing that which in our lives is illusion. See who or what that illusion is, and replace it with the reality.

Free of mind and free of heart, we are filled with a sense of joy and happiness, with a true sense of peace.

We learn to release the restrictions in our life - the ones that we ourselves have placed there. We move to a new level of awareness.

We have completed our journey. We have gone within and balanced our being. We are living from our highest potential - our goals are easily met, and we are at peace. The world without responds automaticaly to the world within. We are as one with the Universe.
