“I think many people who have deeply engaged in their spiritual journey have had moments where they wonder, ‘Wow, what did I get involved in? What have I done?’ At the beginning of the journey, it feels like you are chasing God, and that’s something you can comprehend. And once God is chasing you, you realize the reins of your life are really no longer in your ego’s hands. Some other force is now commanding your spiritual journey, and your life has given way to a new, transforming force, the force of spirit and fire. And spirit and fire, as we’ve said, are not predictable—you cannot control them.”— Adyashanti
But if these years have taught me anything it is this: you can never run away. Not ever. The only way out is in.
