The Journey of the Gods

Posted by Suman on Apr 04, 2020

Some will say they want to be the ideal son or daughter to their parents,

while some the best husband or wife to their loved ones.

Some will be incessant about

not being devoted enough as a mother or father,

while some will deeply concern themselves,

not being able to live as a Legend,

or not utilizing their potential till the edges and beyond in whatever they do.

Some will not want to play one or more of these roles.

(I will never be a "dad" or a "mother" they will say, for instance.)

Then there will be some on one extreme,

not bothered with playing any of these roles.

"Everything seems pointless" they will say,

and though will slave away at work or study,

their days will go by lackadaisically past them.

And then those on the other extreme,

who especially during a certain stage of their life,

will want to play ALL the roles above at the same time.

And thus will be getting bogged down with what they will label as

"having to play too many roles" or "having too few hours in the day".

...

To all such individuals, I will say this ...

Though to you,

my statement of these concerns might sound very varied and different.

I will say that they are all the (surface) observation of the same (internal) "condition",

and lest you get worried,

immediately add that the "condition" is not something personal to you,

but a universal "condition" amongst human beings of the modern era.

The "condition" of humans not being aware of their concerns.

The peculiarity of this "condition" is that reading about it (e.g. the line above)

does not allow one to realize the gravity of it,

for it is once again because of it,

that information is registered "too lightly".

...

Independent of the extent of this "condition",

I would add that deep down ALL human beings actually want to

experience these roles (of son, wife, father, etc),

that is, come their opportune moment during their lives.

However, because they live a life not experiencing anything,

they end up either wanting these roles too badly or outright resisting them.

For even those who "seem to have a stable head on their shoulders"

and have life "lining them up" for these roles,

almost without fail,

make a mistake which makes them go through ups-and-downs,

fights and break-ups, or to "pay the price" in many other ways.

...

What is that mistake?

They take these roles for individual chases and approach them for something coveted.

And because of this,

though by some miracle they do "reach the end of their journey",

their experience ends up being sub-par.

And also, though they "connect the dots" in their golden years,

they make a momentous sacrifice during their prime years.

To these (and others whose "condition" resonated with what I presented earlier),

I will say again and again and again...

Please understand this ...

There are no separate paths to ...

... being the ideal son or daughter,

or being the best husband, wife or lover,

or being the devoted father or mother,

or being the legendary artist or athlete or businessman.

There is One and only One and only Only One path to All of these.

Now you may "choose" to "not believe" this.

And chase each of the roles separately,

assigning each their own individual "track",

"failing", "succeeding", and "learning" along the way,

as the countless many "self-improvement" books

and coaches will tell you to,

and Then connect the dots later in your golden years.

OR

You Decide Today to walk The Path.

The Path to Realize the Truth behind all such roles you are

playing or will play in your lifetime.

The path that should you Decide to walk on,

will not have you wait years or decades to "connect the dots".

Oh no, my friend.

The path that should you Decide to walk on,

will bestow you with the most organic and visceral attainment of All such roles,

together,

At The Same Time,

the very Moment the journey is over.

Thank you.
