"One of the most frequent worries that nags beginners on the spiritual path is that there is some secret of life that eludes them; some secret knowledge that could answer their deepest questions; some understanding that would unlock the deepest mysteries.
There is such a secret, but it is so close, so obvious that few recognise it.
We overlook the secret of life because we look for it in the wrong place. When we finally turn our attention inward, we discover that we are not who we thought we were. To know ourselves is to recognise that we are far more than we believed. It is to exchange our shabby self-image for our true Self and to discover it is a sacred Self and a doorway to the Divine."
