The Quest
 .   .   .   .   .
Following The Call
Of Your Soul

By Katherine Torres
 

Step 9 - Union

As you reach your goal, the ninth path unfolds. It is a union with your quest. You become one with the truth from within. You feel authentic, complete, satisfied. You are in partnership with your Divine Soul. Creativity abounds, love expresses itself through you, and you find life wonderful in its Isness. Are you satisfied with your quest? Do you feel fulfilled? You will as you complete the true quest.

Right now check out your quest. Where are you on the path? Are you making a decision? Defending your position or forming a union? Wherever you are, give it honor. If you are just hearing the call, follow the nine-fold pathway and enjoy the journey.

There is yet another aspect to include in your quest. That of Accountability, Responsibility and Truth or "ART-Fulness."

We want peace, we want love, we want good careers, we want tangible items in our life. We want to be part of the World-wide community living in harmony. To "want" is an encoded energy within us. It is the energy of the God-Goddess Wanting to Manifest.

Our partnership with the Divine is to "listen" to the want, decipher its ultimate meaning and then allow the flow to come through our ART-ful capabilities.

We are blessed with thoughts, desires, and a knowing that we can achieve what we want. We may not always be confident about this truth, but we do have the knowing from within that we can have what we want.

When we come into the knowing that something is possible, we very often begin to share that with others. We ask for their opinion or their assistance. We seek "instruction" to know how to put it all together. We desire a clear path and plans to accomplish what it is we want.

Clear pathways and plans can be constructed through dialogue and application. To put the plan to work, however, requires each of us the personal action of ART-fullness. We must become accountable for our thoughts, our feelings and our actions. We must become responsible for everything we are experiencing and not blame others or circumstances on the reality that something is not happening. We must become truthful with ourselves and note how it is that we are or are not living out our fulfillment. We need to discover what is going on within ourselves at our deep subconscious levels and transform the realities and old patterns of fear and victimization. It is important to quit blaming our childhood, parents, siblings, neighbors, friends, teachers, or significant others.

It is our turn to be accountable for what has, is and will happen to us. We need to put ourselves to the task of realizing that now, as an adult, we have the power to reason, the ability to chose, and the knowledge to change our personal reality. It is important to realize from the Greater Mind that we can change without the need of another's approval, the direction of another's ideals, the belief another has dominion over us, or the belief another is stopping us. We need to realize no person, circumstance or event stand in our way but ourselves.
