The Pendant

The arrival of objects and forms of the deep mind are vital to identify and understand, with an eye for what they represent in a personal way, as much as perhaps what they reveal in a connection with a wider field of understanding. 

One walks across a dirty road in an direction that is seen to be the divine journey, the path of destiny.

Along the road one stops and sees a glinting object that catches the rays of the sun. 

At first there was a reluctance to stop and look, that this would disrupt the journey onwards.

But there it remains shining on the dirt path. 

Collecting the object is a small pendant.

A voice said: "This was yours, do you recall? You discarded it some time ago, but now it is that you need to find it again". 

There was no such recollection. 

It was placed in a pocket and the journey continued. 

Not far along there was a band of persons blocking the path and a toll was required. 

There was nothing with which to pay, all had been lost or given up in the journey. 

Then the recollection came of the lost and found again pendant.

It was handed over and passage was permitted through and there was relief that the meaning of the pendant had been revealed. 

When we do not see the signs and symbols for the gifts that they are, we may find our journey is made more difficult to aid the remembering, and to give us a guiding motion that will aid us. 

Do not anguish but observe and remember, and look to identifying, not abolishing.

All is a teaching.
