Amen.
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.
