EARTH is an abundant playground, and the WORLD is my creation. Perhaps I came here knowing that but, somewhere along the way, I forgot the full extent of this quintessential actuality — perhaps same as you. Luckily, I remembered.
Sabina Nore
Be that as it may, for it to be my creation, I have to assume the role of the creator, and that includes responsibility. All motions are therefore conscious, everything is a choice. No automatism.
Life and experience = expressed consciousness.
With action comes responsibility. However, to assume the role of the creator but skip inward motion or inward consciousness leads to foolish or injurious creations and, eventually, to oblivion. Inward consciousness evolves through ruthless introspection, which is also what ensures access to spirit or true power. Ultimately, to keep at it, and stay in motion, requires resilience.
To constantly and tirelessly evolve, as to impeccably master all of it, is not optional, but a basic requirement to living. It is the breath of spirit — as essential to spirit as breath is to the physical body.
This very basic requirement is then labeled mysticism, and those who live according to the principle of self-mastery are referred to as mystics, spiritual warriors, or sorcerers, when it is actually nothing but a deeply natural and revelatory way to live, and be.
