Transformation takes time to occur. The inner state must change in order for change to be visible.

“Some rocks undergo a change in its molecular structure, turn into crystals, and so become transparent to light. Some carbons, under inconceivable heat and pressure, turn into diamonds and some heavy minerals into other precious stones.” (pg.3)

Recognize your inner state and be present to how you’re feeling now. If you want to see change in your outer world, you must change from within first. Allow the process to occur and don’t quit because you don’t see a change in your outter world.

How are you being?

“Knowing yourself is being yourself, and being yourself is ceasing to identify with content. Most people define themselves through the content of their lives. Whatever you perceive, experience, do, think or feel is content.” – pg. 193.

Whoever you are being, is who you are.

Be yourself.
