The only journey is the one within

I read that yesterday and I agree with it. The journey within answers so many questions, can take us on a discovery trail. We uncover so many things about ourselves, which we never knew.

But, it can be scary too. In fact it is often more scary than we envisage because the truths we discover about ourselves. Humans have a tendency to push back unpleasant things. We store them away in our subconscious mind. Things like jealousy, anger, greed, and envy. We want to present our best and most humane side to the world, even ourselves.

We delude ourselves in thinking we are a paragon of virtues and how others are still embroiled in petty things. Oh! What a relief we get!!! But these thoughts don’t go away. They are there lying dormant in the back allies of our mind and when we start the journey within, they re-emerge like the proverbial dragon. And we run away, we get scared. We stop the journey. We don't want to face the ugly truths about ourselves. But this is the crucial point. Face them and you will cleanse yourself forever of all negativity. Slowly, the dragons will disappear and the rainbow of pure bliss will emerge.

Have patience and will power. Start the journey today

So be it!!!
