Some days I get the notion that my spiritual path is all about losing myself. Say what? Well, instead of focusing so much on me and my wants or expectations, I let go of my "getting" agenda, and just "be" for a few moments. I let go of the thinking about me. It is not easy but when I can do it for snippets of time, I seems to get found by some power or energy or reality that is always within and around me, but ignored or avoided. This is a positive power of goodness, love, compassion, acceptance and service, which is ignored by selfish, self-centered, fear-based persons like I can be. Do you sometimes feel that the normal you is just bad, a mess? Think of it as an opinion or a temporary phase that can be changed by "letting go" for a few minutes. The purpose of my meditation, my spiritual practice, is to be "found." So I lose myself. You cannot be found if you are not lost.
