InnerSelf Daily Inspiration November 2, 2026 Being on The Path, Guided in the Right Direction By Astrid Fitzgerald Seeking and aspiration need to be guided in the right direction. We need to know where we are going, how to get there, and what the goal is. — Astrid Fitzgerald We all know from experience that we cannot be a better person, a more loving individual, let alone a fully realized being, simply by intention alone. Spiritual seeking is a commendable activity in and of itself; it brings many rewards such as greater clarity, peace of mind, and serenity, and keeps us from mindless and destructive pursuits. But spiritual seeking that is undisciplined and aimless will not bring any improvements to our condition, nor will it be truly rewarding. Seeking and aspiration need to be guided in the right direction. We need to know where we are going, how to get there, and what the goal is. We need to know what Emerson called the "necessary truths." We need every helping hand we can get to guide us along the path, in whatever form it takes: a system, a yoga, a guru, or a teacher. There is a distance to be forded; there are many steps between fragmentation and unity, between the personal and impersonal, between egocentric being and cosmocentric being. At the beginning of the path, we are subject to many external influences, such as the laws of nature and those of man; we cling to rituals, creeds, and opinion. As we move up and gain self-reliance (to use an Emersonian term) external influences lose their power over us, we become more universal -- we stand under a higher law and live according to universal principles. Still higher up, as we realize our true nature, we are released from all belief, all manmade laws, and all of nature's laws. Belief is replaced by complete knowing and understanding. A person who has reached this point understands (stands under) the One -- the One Law, the One Will -- or, in Emerson's words, the "all-abiding truth." Read the Full Article
