The path to Soul is long and pure.
The path to Soul is narrow and high.
On the left, there is a cliff that plunges
to the depths of darkness.
But, the treacherous side is to the right
because it is so deceptive.
Slowly, the right hand path
descends into the
Caves of Long Forgotten Fears.
Although the decline is
barely recognizable at first,
it increases steadily.
If we are not aware,
we can become trapped
within that forgotten fear
and lose our way.
Many a mighty warrior
has become lost, because
only by going through the Mouth of the Dragon
can the treasure of illumination be gained.
The projection of our inner light,
and the call of our Soul,
is all that can lead us through the
labyrinth of our darkness.
It is only by facing the truth
of our own creations
that we can beckon this light
into the recesses of our unconscious.
Then we can realize that
all that we have known,
all that we have experienced,
is a reflection of our inner world.
Once we have gained that awareness
we become the cause and core,
the sole creator of our life.
However, it is best that we surrender
the responsibility of that creation to our Soul.
Ego is not pure enough
to bear the weight of this burden,
nor wise enough to confront
the ramifications of such power.
Ego believes it can escape
into death with a mere,
“I’m sorry” or “I didn’t know.”
But, Death is not the end.
It is a recess where we can rest
before we again enter
the Classroom of Life.
Who are the teachers in this classroom
and where do they reside?
How do we learn to have Soul
be the guide of all our creations?
Deep inside!
Behind the lies
awaits the Truth.
Deep inside!
Behind the ego,
behind the fear,
is the Unconditional Love
that illuminates
The Path to Soul.
