AVOIDING vs. SURRENDERING TO YOUR LINE OF GEOMETRY

Walking in the Dark

You cannot deal with the action process around you. Life may seem very hectic, people running around with no direction and you may easily fall under this influence. There is a constant sense of urgency towards action in you. You may be forcing energy as you believe that this will eventually lead you to a place of peace and relaxation. You see standstill as a setback and are constantly under pressure to develop. Media and internet can be detrimental for you as they are stimulating and creating even more pressures and desires. Comparing yourself and your life process to others.

False belief that owning and achievements will bring peace and security. Clinging onto things, goals and people.

Walking in the light

Your path is a slow one but remember that the pace has nothing to do with quality. When the moon disappears, the sun appears. You may not understand why things are being taken away from you or why your goals are not being reached, but this is your line of geometry teaching you how to live a life free of desire. You are here to learn to see everything as borrowed and not yours. Progress is happening even if it's not so obvious. Meditation and spending time in nature can be the best teachers for learning patience and truly accepting to walk this line of geometry.
