The world is very busy, and there is the tendency in the West to supplant busyness with spirituality. You can be moving almost at the speed of light and yet on your spiritual path be still. In stillness, you can be emanating the frequencies of love, wisdom, and power with the speed of light, co-creating with God a beautiful new world of beingness, truth, understanding.
Take time each day to nurture the sacred fire within you by offering the oil of presence to the flame. As you light the wick with your devotion, the oil of presence burns serenely. The flame is steady. Warmth and light are created as a result, and you may maintain that contact with your Source that is key to your inner work.
The goal is union and an understanding of who God is within you. Once you have completed your time of stillness in meditation and received the keys for that day’s work, then, moving through presence, you can accomplish all through Christ, who moves and lives and has his being within you; through Buddha, whose mind emanates throughout your consciousness; through the Mother, whose purity flows from the fount of grace; through the Spirit most holy, whose presence you may feel everywhere throughout your days of service, your nights of rest, and your deep contemplation upon the things of that Spirit.
