Self-Inquiry

Self-inquiry:

and so really, A Course in Miracles is the deep practice of jhana, the yoga of self-inquiry, but with a bit of a twist to this ancient practice. In traditional jhana we might ask the question “who am I?” in a curious and persistent fashion, allowing silence to eventually supply our sought out answer. The Course asks us to rely upon out internal teacher, the Holy Spirit, to reinterpret the world through our inquiry — we ask ‘what is this for?” and the Holy Spirit has the single reply:

salvation.

all inquiry ends with a revaluation, we’re shown the soft shine of holiness that resides beneath the surface of the world, our innocence is revealed through the practice of forgiveness, and we know exactly what everything is for — we are here in service of salvation. That’s it.

everything serves to bring us home.
