Part III Hermits, Light and Kindness

What is it most people truly want?

• Food - Shelter
  
  
• Comfort and acknowledgment
  
  
• A sense of self empowerment...
  
  
• Etc, etc...
  

Enlightenment is typically pretty low on the list of things to do for many people.

Matters not.

If you are on the path of enlightenment....

Don't mistake your "inner light" to be a beacon for helping others.

It isn't..

It's your own internal lighthouse in the seas of your life.

When diving into this form of self exploration, our personal inner light becomes a very bright guiding force to help internally in a wondrous journey. However, your inner light isn't something that is directly visible to others.

What is visible to others will be the peace and serenity gained from the process of self improvement.

Peace and serenity are shared in the process of kindness.

Now it's time to connect this post back to an earlier post about kindness.

Don't ever worry about helping others find enlightenment... Kindness itself is the aspect of enlightenment that is sharable to helping others solve the more immediate problems of life.

If you ever desire to be a spiritual teacher for yourself or to others. Remember kindness as a core part of the practice towards enlightenment.

Be kind to yourself..

We are always our own teachers in the life we wander within.
