Horizons that limit my vision....

Stage one: Horizon of Fear-

I provide for the necesseties and look out for myself. But when I get anxious, I feel lost. Only God knows why bad things happen in this world. Bounded by anxiety, insecurity, dependency.

Stage two: Horizon of Control-

I exert power and relish competition as a way of fulfilling my ambitions. But when things get beyond my control, I am totally frustrated. Only God knows why things don't work out the way I had planned. Bound by guilt, duty, victimization.

Stage three: Horizon of Fatalism-

I'm at peace with myself and know what is happening with me inside. But I lose me center when nothing makes sense anymore. Only God knows why destiny can be so cruel and capricious. Bounded by karma, introversion and lack of power.

Stage four: Horizon of Self-deception-

I navigate through the world with much more intuition and insight than most people. But I can be misled by my inner voice at times. Only God knows why my intuition deceives me just when I need it most. Bound by hidden secrets, past conditioning ego needs.

Stage five: Horizon of Fantasy-

My inner world is rich with new discoveries, and I have enough awareness to see that my thoughts come true. But some of my deepest wishes stay on the level of unreachable fantasies. Only God knows why this happens. Bounded by self-absorption, grandiosity, playing God.

Stage six: Horizon of Identity-

My whole life is devoted to service, and I can be selfless in the face of great demands from others. But sometimes the suffering of humanity makes me want to escape this world. Only God knows why I can't lose myself in him all the time. Bounded by thought, personal ego, traces of old conditioning.

Stage seven: Infinity-No Horizon-

I see no difference between my mind and the mind in all things. My identity is one with all people. Only God knows that I am merged into him in all dimensions at all times. Boundless!!!
