Many years ago I read Dr. Wayne Dyer‘s book The Power of Intention, which a friend loaned to me just as I was starting on a long journey of change. But, after many years, many books, and much change in my life and my Self, I thought I’d revisit the book that just happened to appear in my life at the start of it all, just to see if I might glean any more from it today, as a changed man, than I did so long ago at the outset of my journey.
And sure enough, this time I came across the following quote attributed to Aldous Huxley which resonated with me, without my recollection of it the first time ’round, and I wanted to share it here:
“The spiritual journey does not consist of arriving at a new destination where a person gains what he did not have, or becomes what he is not. It consists in the dissipation of one’s own ignorance concerning oneself and life, and the gradual growth of that understanding which begins the spiritual awakening. The finding of God is a coming to one’s self.” ~ Aldous Huxley
UPDATE: I have since learned that, though often misattributed to Aldous Huxley from his book The Perennial Philosophy, the above quote was actually written by the Indian spiritual master Meher Baba, in his book Discourses (Vol II), which is available for free download here.
