Living zen retreat / Day 30.

Know your own light.

“Whether you worship Christ, Krishna, Kali or Allah, you actually worship the One Light that is also in you, since It pervades all things.

Everything originates from Light, everything in its essence is Light.”
Sri Anandamayi ma

Whoever you worship, or don’t worship, this one thing is true, everything, in it’s essence is the Light of Truth. 

Today, sit, and contemplate, “what is the light of my truth?” 

How are you any different from Christ, Krishna, Kali, Allah, Anandamayi Ma, Buddha? Do you not think they were born ordinary beings, just as you were? 

They simply stepped consciously out of the way, so that the light could shine through them. Are you big enough to let go, and let the light shine through you too? It’s already there, you don’t need to look for it, you don’t need to keep searching.

“Behind the façade of the person is the Infinite. To itself it is not hidden, but to something else it appears to be hidden… yet It alone Is.”
Mooji

This person you believe yourself to be, is just a facade. The truth is already here, what you’re looking for is already here, in you, know your own light.
