GREMLINS

We all know someone, might even be someone we see in the mirror, who has a shelf full of self help/spiritual books. Most of them have probably been read, once, after which they took their place of pride in the collection. Now being a self appointed spiritual guru, enlightened being, Zen master and just a peach of a guy, I will now impart to you one of the grand secrets of the universe. Gremlins. Pick up any one of the books that touched you in the past, open it at random and start reading. Read a few pages. Go ahead, I’ll wait………………Pretty amazing huh. How could you have missed that the first time you read it? Yup, gremlins. When we get busy with life they move the words around to reflect our ever increasing level of spiritual understanding. The lesson is simple, stop looking for answers, you already have them. Study what you already know, what has already touched you for it touched you for a reason. Study that which has sung to you in the past, and you will be amazed that no matter how many times you have read it, those darn gremlins have got in there to reflect your increased insight. This isn’t to say that nothing new can come along, but first we dig our foundation deep by focusing on basic truths, revisiting the roots of our belief regularly, observing how the gremlins have brought new luster to that which we thought we knew and understood. Aren’t secrets cool.
