The familiar … appeals. The familiar … resonates. That which you already know … you recognize. “I resonate with that … “ simply means you are already familiar with it … but it may be a different wording that catches your attention. It does assist in helping you determine where you “are” on the Path.

To go beyond that always involves the Unknown … and involves a risk.

One of the more interesting perceptions in the human state of consciousness is … when we come across anything new … some new tidbit or concept or principle … we try to pull it down into what we already know. We re-interpret it … bringing it into the already familiar … and therefore … it’s not “new” anymore. We simply add it to an “I already know that” list.

It stops us from truly growing.
