I'm so glad you found The Oracle...You may already be on a spiritual path. If you are that's great! Tell us about it. Share what you have learned. If you're not on a spiritual path, maybe you found The Oracle for a reason. I'm a firm believer in the idea that everything happens for a reason. Maybe it's time for you to take a look at your spiritual health. Have you found yourself dissatisfied with life? Do you want material things but when you get them they don't give you the pleasure, the fulfillment you thought they would? Does it make you turn around and want something else, creating an endless cycle that you can't escape from? Well, shed this desire for material things and pay attention to your inner voice. What is the root cause of this desire? Pay attention to the answer you get...
If you are serious and really think you are ready to start down this path then I have a few suggestions. Take time each day, even if it is only for five minutes, or walking from you car in the parking lot into a building, to get in touch with your true self. I am working on an article about how to find your true self. I will be publishing it in the coming weeks. Once you get in touch with your true self each day then turn your focus to a higher power. The Creator. The Absolute. The Supreme Consciousness that we as a collective are actually a part of. Whatever your idea of God is right now. Spend some time in fellowship and oneness. Drop the dualistic worldview we are all trying to work through!
I have also found it amazingly helpful to establish a part of your home as sacred space. Even if it is a small table in the corner of the room with one candle. Find an image of your interpretation of God and place it there as a focal point. In time you will see how this will help. Along with the article on finding your true self, I am also working on an article about how to create sacred space.
There are more things you can do, and you will find them as you walk the path with or without my help if you are truly seeking. If you want, check back in with The Oracle. I am always working on it. Rather than publish articles sporadically, I have decided to work on my articles through the week and publish them on Sunday, so Monday would be a great day to check back in with us.
“There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable it is, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open… You have to keep yourself open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open.” Dancer and choreographer Martha Graham (1894–1991) on respecting and expressing our own individual personality.
