We can go on living as we have, where we allow our lower nature to respond to life for us by “remembering” what it does, and then “choosing” these reactions to act as our guide, telling us how we ought to meet the moment; or, we can choose a whole new path that lets us reclaim our Real Life. What is the nature of this new path we must take?

We must begin to do the work of authentic self-remembering. Among other considerations, here is what this idea means for us: As life asks us for a response to its ceaseless changes, we work to be awake to the still small voice in us that would have us remember, and then put first, what is the quiet wish of our own True Self.
