I'm very open to that idea. But I also think the physical component is underestimated by some people. I'm convinced that no matter how 'aware' a particular individual may be, the full unfolding and actualization of their innate gift is still 'keyed' to the maturity of the body (the temple of the spirit) and it's capacity to handle a higher level of 'energy'. Until that occurs I don't consider them "confidently ready to run." They still need to recapitulate their previous steps and learn how to walk again. Some acne riddled, greasy, 15 year old kid may indeed be 'hard wired' due to previous experiences, and have some awareness of this. But they will still probably have to wait until after their first Saturn return to begin to fully manifest and actualize their ability.
Yes that is a good point; especially about the maturity of the Saturn return.
Is this meant to be an autobiographical scetch told in the thirdperson?
Autobiographical ? ? Heavens no! It was a student I taught in year 10 (who wasn't greasy or had acne ... sheesh man! ) .. actually he taught me a thing or two. My autobiographical sketch would involve years of stumbling in the dark, moving towards faint glimmerings that shift and change and after 35 years starting to grasp it, 10 years of getting a firm hold ... several incidents of the grip slipping ... etc. etc.
This is not for your benefit, ravenest, but for others who seem to think that True Will must find expression through a particular job or career. It's great if your mundane occupation and True Will link up in that way, but that doesn't necessarily have to be the case. Any work can be part of the True Will, even if it does no more than provide for the 'material platform.' Whether one sweeps the streets or sits in a board room on the top floor, do all for the Glory of Adonai. It's basic Karma yoga.
You're right - it doesn't need THAT expression ... it just needs expression ( the DO part of Do what thou wilt). Washing the old people seemed more like Karma Yoga than the office job
.... one might even find joy and contentment in the Karma Yoga and fully realise that that work is not the Great Work (even though it may all be related in some ways).
But to have the GW and the life's job / income the same is like hitting the triple score in scrabble ... not all expressions of True Will are things that normally generate an income and I would never suggest that someone does not follow their True Will because they wont or might not get a job or income out of it.
Do you actually teach this? If so I can't help feeling what a disservice it is to those you say "never find it." The fact that they are actually looking is evidence that they have already found something.
No I don't teach that some never find their will. I did write that though so I should qualify it ... what I meant was, I have observed it , and the qualification is what THEY themselves were expressing, not what I was judging; "I don't know why I am here ... what's the point of all this .... it seems useless and pointless ... there is no meaning to life ... I just want to end it all ... " Followed by a drug overdose or suicide.
That MAY have been their true will ... to experience and express that ... but it certainly was not confirmed by them. They were the ones that were saying they would never find it.
What I did teach (to year 10 and many others) and do still 'teach' is EVERY man and EVERY woman is a star and hence ALL have a True Will and purpose in the expression of that Will.
Actually I did have a kid that was saying he would never find it, but he was saying he could never get any type of job, or finish school, or know what he wanted ... he was just useless (according to him ... or the embedded programme ... he told me what his father used to say to him ; shocking!). He also thought he wouldn't be able to disarm me when I attacked him with a wooden sword ... should have seen the look on his face when he finally did it and threw me across the gym mats and ended up with the sword himself
I wonder if he ever ended up 'shiho-nargaing' his dad across the lounge room one day ?
