Mountain of Your Dreams

Every human in this multiverse wants to climb his or her "Mountain" . . . wants to achieve a dream that matches this character and caliber of the self-image. One of the best exercises for such an effort is the effortless, silent contemplation on the sensation of breathing . . . the sensation of being breath, rather than being the breather of the breath. This is a deduction, not a production — this is introspection, not projection — this is an inaction that reveals the middle pathway to your "Mountain top" . . . the world of your fulfillment. 

Remember: you can always see the Mountain of your dreams from a greater distance, but when you get up to the base camp — ready to climb and do the work and fulfill this dream — all you can see are the foothills (the problems) directly in front of you . . . the challenges that surround you. "You cannot see the forest for the trees." You must climb over these foothills — over all these challenges — with great trust that the "Mountain" is there . . . it is coming on its way toward you. This is the essence of the story of Mohamed and the mountain. 

Use a conscious breathing exercise (pranayam) to tune into and experience the essence of each step — this is the middle path; this is the way of ultimately being at ease with your "Mountain" . . . being at ease with the greatest possibilities of your life.
