Alone

You are never alone and never without a great teacher. There is no need for a companion and no need for a guru. Being around others is very healthy, having wise people to learn from is a gift, but being without is not negative.

In fact alone time, at least one hour silence a day, is wonderful. Truth can be explored and enjoyed and any accumulated residue from life can be cleansed. The true self is beyond alone, it has no other, yet brings forth a googol forms reflected and twinkling from the one hologram. These many perspectives of the one are always present and always changing. These displays offer lesson after lesson, truth after truth, gift after gift.

Alone is great, you are never alone.

Your greatest teacher is always with you, your greatest distraction to its wisdom is your chattering ego. Shut up the ego, it may be the external face to the world, but not the voice we wish to hear. - I listen to the Tao.
