Enjoy The Cul De Sac

                        The realm of sensation is like a beautiful cul de sac. The views and vistas may be amazing. The surroundings may be bucolic and picturesque. However, it is not a through street to God. You will eventually reach the end of that street and will be forced to go around and around,  never attaining the goal of quality contact with the source of all there is.   The realm of sensation is a necessary part of your learning experience while you are conducting this experiment we call life.  Enjoy the beauty of the cul de sac and take it for what it is worth. It is not your ultimate goal, so don’t get caught up in it.  Find your through street that will enable you to realize that what you are seeking is already within you.  Outside resonance simply confirms its existence.  It is a tool to help you understand that the great universal force that you think is outside of you is also within. Enjoy the cul de sac but look for the through street within.  The treasure you will find at the end of that street is beyond our current comprehension but well worth the journey.
