I bring you to the mountain that you may be inspired. At such heights rare breaths minister to the seeking soul who aspires to its pinnacle. Through the ascent the language of light becomes finely attired and the lungs of awareness expand within the aspirant. The Glory of the pinnacle beckons.
I will not give to you the majestic mountains of time and space where you often visit in the realms of your imagination beholding the wonderment and majesty of a pristine creation. I will lend it to you that you may come into recognition through natural analogy, a spiritual truth.
So many do the mountains bewitch that they expend time and energy to physically train in preparation for the climb. They acquire the most suitable gear and impose a time limit to accomplish a monumental task which requires great physical, mental and emotional stamina.
Invariably during their journey through challenging terrain, they may stumble, fall and often become bruised. Yet with the goal always in sight they persevere. Weariness of body is seldom experienced as the adrenaline pumps within spurring them to continue their climb to experience greater heights of personal and physical achievement. Often they will stop and take moments to enjoy the panoramic view, the beauty of which channels inspiration to ascend higher and higher until they could see what others are unable to see.
With every mile they overcome they witness an inner exhilaration and partake of rarefied air which takes them into new dimensions of feeling. All is now expanded and they feel the waft of accomplishment bathe over them as the pinnacle of the mountain is in sight. They rest not until they achieve their mortal goal. Mentally and physically they are pushed to the limits but the joy and peace and glory they experience at the pinnacle has made the journey with its varied experiences and casualties well worth it.
Why are you drawn to the mountain? Man seeks greatness, achievement of highest potential and peace. The mountain is symbolic of majesty, bears great height and commanding presence and presents a challenge to all but itself. It offers a haven of solitude to those searching for peace and quiet reverie. Its natural habitat inspires creative thought and dispensation. It is cast in untold beauty which attracts the soul of those drawn to it.
How befitting is the mountain, analogous to the soul of man yet disparate, the latter being spiritual and eternal and the former being physical and natural. Man can discover his soul, his character and truth as he climbs the physical mountain and indulges in the reverence of solitude allowing him to hear the wisdom of his soul and experience the beauty within himself. He is free in the mountain to walk with his spirit untouched by the rancour of extraneous certainties.
Yet the physical mountain speaks to man its own parable. It tells the story for those who can hear that man’s soul is likened unto a mountain willing man to assume the challenge of ascending it by preparing himself through the reflection of spiritual attitude and the desire for spiritual aptitude.
The mountain of his soul beckons him to take a welcoming journey to discover his truth and reality. Though this journey may be onerous at times and falter he may in his climb, progress he will make to encourage him to keep his eyes on the goal being the pinnacle of his soul – the God head.
This mountain can be climbed but can never be proved. It is its own greatness and offers only rewards to those who are courageous to take the journey. It offers higher vision and sound insight. The higher you ascend the more you become enveloped in vibrations anew. You find your song on this journey as your soul creates a harmony that will lure you continuously to higher placement. On this mountain you will experience the joy of being and the ecstasy of your own presence. Your instincts will be honed as you absorb more and more of the soul’s ethereal light and you will become transformed. This is your eternal abode where inspiration never fades, where wisdom is never forgotten and truth always shines.
It is the storehouse of balance where harmony can be purchased through the exchange of desire and effort. The mountain of your soul offers certainty and guarantee of eternal existence. When you make this mountain your dwelling place, you shall reside in your power and all fear shall be admonished in the wake of your knowing who you are. The pinnacle is at your behest, forever urging, instructing and guiding you through the perfect path for you; that as you journey to Glory, there too, will be Glory in the journey.
I AM THAT I AM
