June 14th

Master


Deception occurs when you are divided,
Truth appears when you are whole.
Uniting male and female brings illumination,
The real master is a perfect light.
No one is ineligible to know higher truth. When concentration, energy, and thinking are scattered, we cannot break out of ignorance. The diversity and contradictions of existence confuse us, and appearances deceive us.Do we need a master to help us in this struggle to know the truth? In the beginning we do. What is not often said is that the human master is but a temporary and imperfect manifestation of the ultimate truth. Without a master, you cannot make a beginning. If you never look beyond the person, you will never attain the entirety. A good master leads you to the true master within. Only that master, who is your own higher self, can adequately answer all questions.
Once you unite all elements within yourself, metaphorically referred to as the uniting of male and female, the light that dispels darkness appears. Just as all colored light together makes colorless light, so too does the combination of all our facets result in the integration of our polarities. When this happens, you will "see" a light in your meditations. This light brings knowledge. That is why it is called the true master.



Personal Interpretation


A higher truth is accessible to us all. We just have to learn to hone our minds so that they can receive the pure energy of Tao. In the beginning this may require the guidance of a master. The word guidance is key. Our explorations and epiphanies will be our own. The Master's role is to share his or her wisdom and give us some inkling of where we should begin the quest. The ultimate goal is to reunite the divided aspects of our own selves. When thinking is scattered, the picture will never be clear and the path forward will remain hidden from sight. We are capable of more than we imagine though, and with practice we can gain a sense of clarity that will make every moment of struggle worth it.
