Purpose can be viewed as a changing perception of fulfillment. Everything can also be felt as a stepping stone to opening to consciousness. What happens as you voluntarily turn inward to explore the truth? What do you let go of and what reveals itself quietly?
What you find is that beyond the fear, anger, sadness, despair, and other emotions, you are willing to be more honest wih yourself and see through direct experience what is real. You begin to see yourself everywhere. This is not the Self the mind defines.
You travel no distance to be where you are. Now is the moment is when you simply Be who you are. The sense of oneness and individual co-exist with nothing to reconcile.
"The nature of truth is dynamic and always calls for a deeper level of simple honesty and vigilance." -Gangaji
