ten keys #6

total self-knowledge

the world is a mirror of who we are

and when you have total self-knowledge

then

that reflects in our experience of the world

there is nothing more important than asking two questions

and the first question is:

who am i?

and the second question is:

what do i want?

and

there's a way to do that

so shall we?

close your eyes

put your attention in your heart

and ask yourself

who am i?

and listen to your heart

see what it says

don't look for answers

just ask the question

now ask yourself

what do i want?

again

don't look for answers

just listen to what your heart says

now

let's ask some more questions

what's my life's purpose?

see what your heart says

listen

now ask yourself

what contribution do i want to make to the world?

and listen

now ask yourself

what creates joy for me?

and listen

now ask yourself

who are my heroes and heroines?

and listen

now ask yourself

what are my unique skills and talents?

and listen

now ask yourself

what are the qualities you look for in your best friends?

and listen

now ask yourself

what are the best qualities you can express in your relationships?

and listen

ok

open your eyes

you don't have to ask all these questions all the time

but these questions describe the meanings, the context, the relationships, and even the archetypal things in your life

so in a sense this is a profile of your deepest self

so every day if you can take just 2 minutes

to sit quietly

and go into silence

and ask

who am i

and

what do i want

and then one or maybe two of those others

and

it's not important to know the answers

if you live in the questions

you will move into the answers

through an insight

or a coincidence

or through a relationship

or an encounter

something magical will happen to you

and you will say

aha!

so that is the answer

ok

so this is very important

for you to do this
