Seeking is an expression of truth,
it is not a way.
Our spiritual journey does not bring us to truth,
truth expresses itself through our journey.
In a sense, there is no “journey.”
It is the discipline of inner work
through which truth is expressed.
“The real voyage of discovery consists
not in seeing new landscapes,
but in having new eyes.”

“We shall not cease from exploration,
and the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started
and know the place for the first time.”
~ T. S. Eliot
For the 14 years that I have been writing / blogging, there has been a real evolution / revolution of understanding within. One of the most revolutionary shifts came when I realized that there really is no spiritual journey. What I have seen as a journey, if there is one, is like one inch long and 1000 miles deep. What does that mean? That is exactly what I wondered for quite a long time even though I knew there was truth in that statement.
