The Intrinsic Goodness of our True Natures is far more powerful than any conditioning. Sometimes we can get so hypnotized by the labyrinth of our minds that we forget this Truth. The way out of our conditioning is to LOVINGLY witness ourselves constantly. Like a mantra or a constant prayer, witness yourself in every moment. But do it with love and compassion, like a parent watching over a deeply-beloved child. Gently notice when your thoughts, words, and actions are less than light-filled, and gradually the darkness within will dissolve, leaving only light. (Patience, dear Ones. It takes years!)

There's a gap between who we're born to be and who we are.

And human beings,

We will choose the way of least resisted.

We're good problem solvers.

So we'll try to find a way to solve this.

So we can turn to teachers and want them to do it.

But we also have to make efforts.

And it's how much we want it.

Deeply,

How much we want to know our truth to be it.

That's what determines how far we get or how much we stay circling in the labyrinth of our minds.

Always the way to heal that gap between where you are and who you're born to be is through prayer,

Focus on the divine,

And witnessing.

Witnessing your actions,

Witnessing how you speak with others,

Witnessing what you're doing,

Like a parent watching a child with love.

You witness yourself like that.
