The reason that we do what we do is because we are looking for the truth of ourselves. It doesn't matter - wanting to learn how to cook, wanting to start a new business, looking for a new relationship, wanting to learn how to write a book, surf, sumo wrestling - whatever it may be. And as many people as there are hearing or reading this... wherever you are, all over the world and in this room...
The day will come when you understand that you are intended to be a "message catcher of the Divine" waiting for its breeze to touch you and bring new understanding into your heart. But in order to receive its message, you need to wait in the one place where it can touch you -- in stillness.
There exists in you a level of being that can know the spirit that is about to speak before it speaks it. This is the meaning of the scripture, "I go before you to make the crooked places straight."

We must consciously meet this part of ourselves that is not interested in doing what is right, and work to develop the right kind of spiritual toughness so that we can be present to ourselves in every moment, in spite of what it seems to cost.
