The Doorway to the Meaning of Life
by Owen Waters
Wandering through life looking for its meaning can be a
heart-rending task. You begin life looking to your parents for
meaning, then to your teachers and friends until, one day,
you're grown-up, educated, and still clueless.
You stand there, thinking that there has to be a reason why
you're here on this earth because you are constantly haunted
from within by a sense of knowing that a reason really does
exist. If only you could remember what it was.
At some point in your life, you look up from the hypnotizing
clamor of daily existence and seek meaning in that which is
above the physical realm of existence. In that moment, when
your attention is focused on whatever higher consciousness may
bring, you are receptive to new ideas and new information.
My life has been spent in pursuit of the awareness that there
is a whole universe of discovery within each person's higher
awareness, just waiting to be explored. Earlier in life, when I
was an employee, I'd often sit at my desk and drift away
mentally into more interesting planes of awareness. Later, as a
business owner, I was able to find quality time for some really
deep reflection. I used to rise bright and early for a
fascinating morning of study and meditation and then roll into
the office, ready to begin work, at the crack of noon.
Today, when people ask me about how to find the meaning in
their lives, the first thing I do is point out the doorway to
their own personal world of inner knowledge. The doorway is
within your heart and it leads from the world of physical
tumult into spiritual realms of inner peace and revelation.
You have only to detach from the stress and turmoil of daily
living to enter your own heart consciousness, feel the love
there which patiently awaits you, and move through the doorway
into a higher awareness.
It is in that state of higher awareness that you discover the
unique meaning of your life. It is there that you find the
peace of mind that always eluded you. It is there that the
light of inner wisdom joins with the love that flows freely
throughout the universe.
This union of love and light brings forth the enlightenment
for which all sentient beings strive, and it all begins with
unconditional love. Acceptance of yourself and everyone as you
are, followed by gratitude for life itself and the experience
that this life brings, opens up the doorway of the heart and
leads onwards into the realms of self-discovery.
