No , when the flash of Truth comes to you , look not to the heavens ; look instead to The Path it sets aglow .
For the Light does not come for you to marvel at its Beauty , the Light comes to show you your Way … For the Light has not come to be loved by you , the Light has come to show you where you can Love … For the Light shines not upon your future ; it shines upon your life — right here ; right now — in this one priceless handful of forever .
So set aside your lightning-chasing … Set aside your search for “ truth ” and “ wisdom ” and “ salvation ” and “ happiness ”. Look around you instead . Look for those in need of a smile or a gentle hand … Look for those yearning for a warm greeting or a warm cup of tea . For they are your Path ; a Path upon which all the Great Ones have already walked — a path they are all gently urging you to follow .
My Friends , the next Great Storm has arrived in your part of the wilderness … The next lightning bolt is even now illuminating your Way .
Don ’ t look up — look around you instead ! Right now … look around your life and See your Path . See your Path … and then , even into the depths of the renewed darkness , set forth boldly upon it .
“ When you start really living , ordinary things are transformed into extraordinary Beauty … Life consists of many small encounters , and yet when you bring the quality of intense , passionate Caring to them , they are transformed — they become luminous .” ~ inspired by Osho
