The prime topic would be … Know Thyself. Perhaps upwards of 95% of the initial Path is trod via trial-and-error. Discernment of what others tell you and discernment of just what are the core beliefs and pattens of Self as each walks their own Path comes agonizingly slow. That involves … looking for the limiting patterns and habits that NO one likes to uncover … but … and it is a *big* but … with eternity to work with … they WILL be uncovered.

One of the real questions to ask of yourself would be … just what degree of courage, discipline, passion for Truth, strength … all of these and more … what degree do you hold within yourself and where will you allow that to lead you?

The old saying(s) of … Truth is not so much of what one has yet to learn … but MUCH more in what one has left to let go of … and … We have met the enemy and the enemy is us … both are very true.

Very few have that depth of courage. This is neither a criticism nor judgement. This is the human experience verses greater Truth. The Path is overwhelmingly unfair … and yet … how else is one to learn greater Truth than to look into the depths of Self to a greater and more frightening degree than most will ever consider … until they are absolutely desperate to do so. Only when one is ready to lose ones life will they actually gain it.

Mind … is not the master … of Soul Itself. Throughout the eons … we have been taught otherwise.
