Can you read the signs? Do you read the signs? Hellooo? Is anyone there? Sometimes, true warriors feel like they are the only ones here. In fact, can it be proven to be otherwise? Perhaps everything is a figment of the true warriors’ imaginations. No one else is here. Is it just true warriors? Are they just making it all up. Is it only a dream. Is anyone out there?
News Flash! Just because you are dreaming doesn’t mean that you can ignore the signs, or that you can behave with wanton disregard for the creations of your mind. You are creating your experience, so pay attention to the signs! The true warrior is hyper-aware and sensitive to the subtle changes in the flow, the force, and the motion … in the activity, the tone, the volume, and the chatter … in the traffic, the silence, and in all that can be sensed. When the true warrior is confounded by the signs, he consults the shaman or the wise man for help in divining the truth. The true warrior asks for help. The true warrior understands that he or she is not alone. The true warrior knows that we are not alone and that we are all connected in some mysterious fashion, and that a special synergy exists for those who can read the signs and then take the right action(s).
Well guess what? Not only can you not prove that you are not all that there is, you also can’t prove that God exists or that He does not. Chew on that for a moment!
Why is God (or the concept of God) at all helpful to the true warrior? The concept or reality of God (or a higher power) provides us with a frame of reference that allows our minds to function without going into logic loops and crashing; it provides a foundational reference for a belief and a framework for faith. To the true warrior, belief and faith are a significant part of their makeup, and it allows them to achieve extraordinary results.
When seeking help, sometimes the help from our other creations is inadequate. We just can’t get the depth we need, and this is where your God can be called upon to provide limitless depth and resources, which are unimaginable to our finite minds. We need this. It is in our nature. Just as a flower must turn to the source of sunlight, humanity has a need to fill the internal vacuum with the presence of our higher power. This is not always God per se. A higher power will fill the void but that power can be almost anything—anything that we unwittingly worship that steps in to fill the void and which we need to be careful not to allow to lead us astray. The true warrior always seeks the true path. It has always been so.
You are warriors. Read the signs. Take the right actions. Consult with the powers that be. Use your wisdom. Find your truth and you will prevail. So it has been written.
