The Journey of the Seeker

Fred M. Fariss

 

The journey is upward. And the pathway of the seeker is the highway of the obvious. The ascending plateaus of awareness and experience rise into the glory of knowing. For the higher the seeker goes, the further she can see. Intellectual knowledge is not enough.

There is no special magic for seeing or mystical rituals to perform. The only obstacle, to overcome, is the habit of not seeing. The ability to see what is, is the intrinsic characteristic of the essential self, so uniquely manifested in the expression of childlikeness. There, without and within, is the obvious of knowing, through the sensing and sensual capabilities of the essential self - the what is because it is.

What makes the journey so difficult and risky is the process of emerging from the experience of blindness into the knowing of sightfulness - a waking up into the glory of the brightness of what is, so unfamiliar and appears to be fairy-tale like. The whole experience is detached from the orientation and conditioning of blindness.

And yet, the experience of discovery is so exciting and fascinating. It is an intoxication - a high - that is natural, healthful and satisfying - known only in the present moment of the journey itself.

  • An experience needs no definition or explanation to be experienced.
  • A label put on to an experience is different from the experience. The label is to one degree or another, a value judgment imposed upon the experience.
  • Experiences follow the natural law of opposites which are not value judgments, but simply the experience of experiencing with its intrinsic feelings, as an awareness that the experience was, indeed, experienced with substance, in the process of the whole of reality that consist of what is, because it is.
