Wednesday Wisdom – Desire

The starting point of of all achievement is desire. – Napoleon Hill

You are a pilgrim on the path to the unknown and you sit in awe and wonder at the architecture of power. Ripen the receptive void within you, like a womb accepting a seed. Today, I want you to open yourself to the unknowable, to what is unfamiliar to you, so that the energy of what you need in order to be whole can flow into you. When you think of yourself as an entity separate from power, you will obstruct the current, and power will defeat you. Identify the form of power you want — what you want to accomplish, build, create or be — and become that, so that there is no separating you.

You are what your deep, driving desire is.
As you desire is, so is your will.
As your will is, so is your deed.
As your deed is, so is your destiny.
– Brihadaranyaka Upanishad IV.4.5
