You find the essence of your true Divine Selfhood
within yourself, within your heart as you go within and
fulfill Jesus’ words to seek the kingdom of God
within.* If you truly see these words as representing
something very important for your spiritual journey,
then you will bring any question that you have about
any situation in your life to the table of your Higher
Self.
This means that you have to work with yourself,
within yourself until you have clarified things to the
point where you simply know internally when you
receive the response that is the most optimal for your
question or whatever it is that you desire guidance
about at that moment. If you begin to do this on a regular basis and stop before you react or conclude something from the human mind, you will receive insights
and inner guidance. And this guidance will fortify you
and allow you to live in integrity because you are
accessing your inner Godhood and fulfilling Jesus’
words. You are not looking outside as much, even to
spiritual teachers or books, for the wisdom and truth
that you require. You have found the means to access
this through stillness, deep introspection, contemplation, and silence, and thereby the inner voice has
become more resonant and obvious to you. This is the
highest form of self-knowledge and gnosis.
*Luke 17:20–21
