The MasTer responds To seeker InquIrIes

states that no one is truly happy in this world, meaning that
if the true self has not been found, one cannot be truly
happy and dwell in the spiritual states of consciousness
continuously. now obviously, not everyone in our world
feels they are unhappy, and in fact, it is quite the contrary.
With all the pleasures and play toys humans can buy to
keep themselves outwardly occupied, there is hardly any
time for them to look at their own inner condition, for they
are totally preoccupied and attached to outer stimuli.
But for a spiritual seeker, even if things are going
quite well on the outside, there is still a gnawing, unset-
tled, subjective reality present that is squeezing one: “I
am not as happy as I want to be. Yes, I have enough
money, a loving family and children, and I am very thank-
ful for that, yet, I feel unfulfilled.” This is spirit knocking
at your door. It is your higher self saying, “There is more,
you do not have to live this way.” as a seeker, you can
certainly be relatively happy in many ways and yet remain
unfulfilled in your heart of hearts, and this is what mat-
ters. Whether you are at the end of your rope or not, if
your heart is in some way breaking or yearning for more,
then you know you are not completely happy in this
world. I was certainly knocked around and was brought
to my knees until I could simply say, “I want spirit more
than I want my desires or my favorite pleasures.” If this
was true for me, then I know the same is true for others
as well.
so please do not regret what you have experienced
in the past, for thank god you did. Thank god you have
been shaken up by the karmic life force. There are certain
causes you have put into motion, and the effects of these
causes have brought you to your knees. Thank god. When
you really want the higher meaning of life, you can have it,
and this is what the Masterpath is all about.
