Spinning my wheels a few precious minutes this morning
Found that unacceptable!
Like a naughty child ‘me’ wailed
“I just can’t get in (-to the Stillness). I can’t concentrate.
Nothing is coming!”

My sincere desire to ‘get in’ (in where, i dunno)
Was enough to afford me this help:
“Teach it to an imagined inquirer.”
“Immediately I heard myself silently say
“Start with any good, solid Truth.

“Here, let’s use your protest “I can’t get in (concentrate).
“Stand it on its head. You CAN get in coz you already ARE in.
“‘In’ implies ‘awareness of God’s allness and everywhereness.
“‘In’ indicates your center – the very center of your being.
“How could you not be there?
“Are you aware of your right hand? Of course. You didn’t have to do anything…
“You didn’t even have to keep your right hand uppermost in thought in order to stay aware of it and maintain its existence.
“The same is true of your spiritual awareness.”

I don’t think I’ll be protesting lack of concentration again anytime soon!
