Focus and Awareness

This lesson uses the analogy of a valley with two mountains, and the journey through the valley.


If you imagine that the two mountains are metaphors for the powerfull forces, neither are correct and by supporting either we compromise our integrety. Take the conflict between the Christian and the Muslims, neither side are correct, both need to be respected and learnt from which in turn drives our moral code propelling us forward. This is awareness, being aware of the forces and respecting them.



Imagine trying to get out of the valley by climbing a mountain, the route will be treacharous and difficult, we may one day get to the top of the mountain but will die in that position, we will not have travelled forward at all, and by being sucked into the conflict have compromised ourselves when we didnt have a belief.

One must focus on oneself, and the journey, and by using the powerful forces in the correct way we end up being pushed through the valley, being balanced.
