Hanging with Hafiz
The journey within follows many paths. All paths are the way. The way within follows the path that is yours to take. You are the way. The journey appears as meditation, kindness, service, and all other forms of practice which express knowledge of consciousness in existence. Desire to know with passion but expect nothing. Sit in the still, dark silence ready to receive. All will be revealed. But simply listening does not cut it. You must turn off the noise inside your head. Your thoughts make an awful racket. Enter the silence free of thought. Be awake. It is not easy to be awake in the world of separation, but you must be awake to hear. With ears that hear you will know the way to receive miracles. To follow your path, find humility, express loving-kindness, and dissolve the self. Above all, do nothing alone. Release the me of the body and its world of separation to the whole of the all. You are in union with consciousness in existence. You are that which I AM—whole, complete, perfect, eternal. There is no other.
