There is only one true path to happiness. And that path involves recognising one's destiny. Then accepting that same destiny. And then choosing to walk it willingly, thus enhancing and transcending it. The true name of happiness is surrender. The formulaic arts, such as astrology or physiognomy, can hand you clues about what your destiny might be. They can give you a starting point, a foundation upon which your journey can begin. But only you know how to transcend the fate that follows. The answer lives within you. Are our lives fated and predetermined? Yes, they are. Yet they become untangled from the shackles of fate the very moment we surrender ourselves to their meaning and mercy. This is the narrow path the enlightened man must walk, the secrets steps that will lead him into bliss. How you transcend your destiny is the gift you give to this world. You, and only you, are uniquely capable of achieving your highest fate, and the highest fate of this our Garden of Eden. You are the miracle update installing itself into the system of life. You are the upgrade. Love of one's fate, regardless of its current state, is the key to happiness. Happiness is alignment with one's destiny, coming to acceptance with whatever it unfolds itself to be. Within your personal journey, everything is of the ultimate importance. This all is just for you. It is all just for you. But it's never only about you. One of the more subtle lessons of life. The grandiosity of each and every moment is not separate from you, understand that and the understanding of everything else comes crashing over you. You are not experiencing the moment, there's nothing external about it. Every moment is perfectly played out just for you. We are all under the thrall of the same one sun, but does that make the experience of its warmth any less personal for each and every one of us? Every moment, every piece of this divine theatre we call life - its meticulous timings, surprises and synchronicities. All for you. Every person you meet, everyone you know, whoever and whatever is closest to you are your most kindred spirits. They are closest to you not only in body but also in spirit. Your fates are interwoven. You're seeing the same movie from different angles. Yet some of you hate them. The great [[The Key Of Paradox|paradox]] of life is that limitation = liberation. You can resist destiny all you want. By doing so, you only delay the inevitable and add to your pain. Through accepting your destiny, embracing it, traversing it with grace - you are granted the means to change it. This means accepting the injustices, pain, disappointments and heartaches that life inflicts upon you. This means resisting the temptations of jealousy, nihilism and hopelessness. This means watching, and reveling, as your brother or sister has more while you have very little. ![[IMG_2734.jpeg]] This our world is a crucible of souls. We are brought here, by our own volition, and subjected to great sufferings. Under this great fire, we are unmade and remade into something greater. The value of this harvest is decided collectively, as one. This is how a god is forged. The old must be shattered for the new to take form. The whole - fragmented - be cast into the hellish fires. Each piece, each individual soul, must find its way back. Become transmuted, melted down, recast into divinity. This is the destiny of Earth. The God of our world is yet to be born. Yet he is born already, and always has been. He comes into being with every living breath. With each passing present moment. He lives, inevitably, in the form of unshaped potential. And you are the means of His liberation. Bask in the glory of that which you are destined to become.
