The Greatest Discovery of All

In the end -- regardless of the field of investigation, be it in science, the arts, the heavens above our head, or within our heart -- what do we really explore other than ourselves? For whatever we may uncover is also discovered, at the same time, as always having been there right within our own mind.

Ask the Masters

(The following short set of questions and answers is taken from special sections following the end of each chapter in Guy Finley's newest book, Let Go and Live in the Now.)

    QUESTION: I don't know about others, but I have thought about these questions for some time now and, try as I might, I can't seem to get beyond myself. What am I missing?

    ANSWER: For the powers of our mind, life and body are bound to their own limitations and however high they may rise or however widely expand, they cannot rise beyond them. But still, mental man can open to what is beyond him and call down a Supramental Light, Truth, and Power to work in him and do what the mind cannot do. If mind cannot by effort become what is beyond mind, Supermind can descend and transform mind into its own substance.

    -- Sri Aurobindo

    QUESTION: I have the wish to awaken and to know my own True Nature, but how can I know if I am suited for such a journey?

    ANSWER: Like the fish, swimming in the vast sea and resting in its deeps, and like the bird, boldly mounting high in the sky, so the soul feels its spirit moving through the vastness and the depth and the unutterable richness of love . . . and then love makes the soul so bold that it no longer fears man or friend, angel or saint or God Himself in all that it does or abandons, in all its working or resting.

    -- Bd. Beatrice of Nazareth

It isn't until we realize that our True Nature can never be known, only continually discovered, that we become the conscious and fearless explorers of reality that we are created to be -- moving in and out of complementary or conflicting moments alike with the same ease as a dolphin delightfully carving its way through the endless currents of the sea.
