Once the goal is defined, you will continue to refine it to keep yourself perfectly aimed at the target. How would you currently define the goal for which you are studying? #319174paulaParticipant
The goal for my studies is to know and experience the creator in all do, say and be in this world. I wish for all my fellow students to attain their highest goals.

I now understand why it was so exhausting, mentally draining and pointless.
I hope I remember it for next time.
Thanks

I am not sure yet if I am angry with the nature of suffering, war, exploitation, abuse and trauma in the world as a means of correction. I know I am talking about the collective now, but surely there is another way other than suffering to awaken us.
I am slowly coming to believe!!
paulaParticipantIn this moment I feel that sensation as a force of illumination that invigorates infuses my being. I have begun to notice that when I am connected with others in trying to achieve this together I feel it more.
