Your spirituality is within. You already have all need to know and everything you need to learn. Your spiritual journey is to the inside. Right this very moment, you are where you need to be. You just have to realize it.
Who is your guide on this journey to yourself? You are. Who shows you where to turn when you’re lost in the dark woods? You will show yourself the way.
How far must you travel? You are already at your destination.
That’s easy to say, but how do teach yourself the way? It’s simple and difficult. You have to be willing and open. Plus, you have to be diligent in exposing yourself to teachings that prompt the recollection of oneness.
The key to willingness is nonresistance. We become resistant when we feel threatened, and without spiritual bearings, we feel threatened most of the time. That’s an illusion that closes down our ability to stay open and willing.
A truck barreling down the freeway is a threat if you cross its path. But a perceived slight in a social situation is not. Yet even a minor slight may close you down with reaction and offense. Then you lose connection with the source within. These soul cut-offs happen all day long, and they can keep us perpetually locked up. Willingness and acceptance are the tools to stay openm open.
Exposing yourself to spiritual teachings, readings, workshops, and more importantly, discussions with friends, will open you up to the source of the oneness within. Seek this exposure. The teachers and the people you meet in spiritual context don’t have something you don’t have, but they will prompt you to yourself.
That’s all you need for a grand spiritual journey. Willingness and spiritual exposure. They will lead you to the oneness within, and that’s everything.
Spiritual Awakening 
There’s so much truth in this.
I benefit mostly from the teachings I get; it’s less about the teachers.
The teachings can come from anywhere. Within, we can recognize the teachings as truth.
I love this post! I’ve always said that the best spiritual teachers are the ones that help you ultimately let go of needing them. As you said, we have all we need inside of us so we can learn to trust and follow our own unique inner guidance.
Thanks Words from the Moon. It’s all on the inside inside.
Hi Rob…thanks for this very thoughtful read….I particularly resonated with the phrase ‘soul cut-offs’. I now understand what happens when your perception of a situation can leave you ‘without’ and feeling lost! You have a soul cut-off! And, if you know it, then you have choices you can make! This has made me more aware and I do thank you for this wonderful insight! Cheers and Blessings, Barbara xxxx
Cheers and blessings yourself, Barbara.
