Setting a New Direction

Setting a new direction


Exceeds the reach of the intellect.

Steady self-examination


Gives you access to your soul.

Deep inside the cave of your heart


You receive unmistakable guidance.

By following the beam of its light


You comprehend the heart’s desires.

Otherwise, you steer your life


By the impulses of the senses;


There is no self-control, no sensible decision,


Just the endless striving to satisfy ambition.

The scriptures have set forth


Clear directions for all seekers.

Read them, study them, imbibe them,


And choose a direction


To reach the highest goal.

There will be times, unforeseen,


When you will need the Guru’s guidance.

Don’t get stuck in any one pattern;


Remain open and humble,


Without binding notions.

You may think it is you


Who is setting a new direction.

Truly, however, it is God


Who is shedding light on your path.

Sometimes, midstream, you are forced


To find a new direction.

Look deep into your heart;


It already knows the way.

The truth is,


Your heart is already there.<\/p>\n","contact":"","link":"http:\/\/www.siddhayoga.org","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":"God's power the sages say, is benevolent to noble souls, terrifying to the evil-minded, beautiful and sweet to the devoted, and is everything to those who seek the truth...","numcomment":0,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2002\/05\/16606.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[]}
