When there is a lift in the building, it is a waste of time and energy to use the stairs. Similarly people are unaware of the rich resources that are hidden in their being. Becoming aware of this can reduce their burden considerably. Once we are able to connect with our higher self we find the power. All the things that were weighing us down no longer have the power to do so. Like the darkness disappearing when the candle is lit. Unfortunately it is the veil of thoughts that prevent us from experiencing this connection. People seek for relief in the world outside in wealth, pleasure, power. They seek to reduce their burden, without success by seeking various kinds of addictions. Once we are able connect with our higher self, we enter the depth of the being. This soul-ution enables us to remain at peace despite the ceaseless churning on the surface.
