The Light of One’s Path

A tale of surrender

He walked up to the top of the hill. From there he would have a perfect view of the sunrise.

He was wearing four layers of clothes. It was cold. The temperature was in single digits (Fahrenheit). He did not care that he was shivering. He put the freezing cold aside. He cast it out of his immediate reality.

As he stood at the top of the hill he put himself into a deep meditative state. He could feel his entire body tingling. He could feel the energy of his being fill him completely.

In this state he released the past; all of his past. That past no longer existed. He also released his future. It did not exist in his NOW.

He released all the emotions that were built up within him. He released all the connections he had with other humans. He released everything that he felt stuck to. He released everything that he thought he was, is, or will be. He released all the habitual thought patterns that consistently ran through his mind. He released all the images of himself that he held in his consciousness. He released who he thought he was.

He took deep breaths and centered his awareness into his heart. Even before the sun rose he could feel it rise within his own being. He could feel it rise within his own heart. He could feel himself being filled with light.

Opening his eyes, he looked toward the horizon in the east. Within just a moment the sun projected its first rays of light. Completely open, he took those rays into his being.

It was a brand new day. With the past and future gone, he experienced the glory of a brand new day.

Engulfed by the light, he embraced the infinite potentiality of change. He met that light with the joy from within his own being. He surrendered to it. He expressed his desire to be filled by the unconditional love that encompassed all of existence. He opened up to be filled by it. He could feel that life existed in the present moment. And that present moment contained all the love and joy that can possibly be experienced.

Every moment of his life thereafter was different. Instead of just living a routine he began living life itself. Instead of living mental and emotional patterns he lived love and joy; the gift of life that he was given when first born. He was born again with each new moment of life.

Soon he was seeing and witnessing the sunrise in every single moment of life. Life became everything it is meant to be. It became unlimited and there were no longer any boundaries to it. He became the sunrise.

And this is when his life really changed. When he surrendered to the sunrise he became the sunrise and when he became the sunrise he became the sunrise to every thing and every human he looked at and touched and loved. He lit up everything on his path.

And that is when his path became clear.
