An extraordinary move!

As you empty yourself and WAIT, you think there are some hidden obstacles. How do you find them? Where are those demons lurking?

To move forward,
you must figure out exactly what is obstructing you.
Whatever it is, it isn't really there;
it has no reality, no substance.
It's your own creation, a phantom lurking in the shadows of your mind,
a shadow demon. Your obstructions are your demons,
and your demons are shadow dwellers.
They live and thrive in the half-light of ignorance,
so the way to slay a demon is
by illuminating it with the full force and power of your focused attention;
by looking at it, hard.
Banish shadow with light and
see for yourself that no obstruction exists, nor ever did.
We create our demons and we feed them.
To awaken we must slay them.
That's really the whole process:
Slay one demon, take one step.
~Patanjali

Next, which actions to take? How do you move?

When you are inspired by some great purpose,
some extraordinary project,
all your thoughts break their bonds;
your mind transcends limitations,
your consciousness expands in every direction,
and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive,
and you discover yourself to be a greater person
by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.
~Patanjali

So, which is YOUR extraordinary project?

The Waiting Game!

Once the intention is set and impeccable actions are in motion, there is still a gap between intention and reality. What to do in the gap? How to WAIT? Castenada shares:

A warrior takes responsibility for his acts; for the most trivial of his
acts. HE WAITS PATIENTLY, KNOWING THAT HE IS WAITING, AND KNOWING WHAT HE IS WAITING FOR. That is the warrior's way. What makes us unhappy is to want. Yet if we would learn to cut our wants to nothing, the smallest thing we'd get would be a true gift. To be poor or wanting is only a thought; and so is to hate, or to be hungry, or to be in pain. They are only thoughts for me now, I have accomplished that feat. The power to do that is all we have, mind you, to oppose the forces of our lives; without that power we are dregs, dust in the wind. It is up to us as single individuals to oppose the forces of our lives. Only a warrior can survive. A warrior knows that he is waiting and what he is waiting for; and while he waits he wants nothing and thus whatever little thing he gets is more than he can take. If he needs to eat he finds a way, because he is not hungry; if something hurts his body he finds a way to stop it, because he is not in pain. To be hungry or to be in pain means that the man has abandoned himself and is no longer a warrior; and the forces of his hunger and pain will destroy him. ...........You must act like a warrior. One
learns to act like a warrior by acting, not by talking. A warrior has only his will and his patience and with them he builds anything he wants.

So, in your life, are you "wanting" or are you "creating"?
