Needing Guidance

When you do not know what to do — where to go, what to say, who to turn to — it is tempting to search the world for a sign. We ask everyone but ourselves, and wait for the way to be made clear from without. Yet guidance was never lost out there. It has been within you all along, quietly waiting beneath the noise of the shadows of darkness, of a mind that has tried to convince you that You are something you are not. Leaving God to play god yourself in time.

Guidance is not found out there

The wrong mind — the ego, at home in the brain — seeks direction as to what to do, where to go, and even what to say. But it is the very mind that made the confusion in the first place, projecting its shadows of sin, guilt and fear onto the way before you, and then asking the world for directions it has itself made crooked. What is within is seen without. So the answer is never to fix the road; it is to clean the mind that is casting it. When you feel lost, you are not being punished — you are being invited to look in a different direction: inward.

What you lack is what you must truly forgive.

The true teacher within

Hidden deep beneath the darkness, resting quietly in the lower gut, is the right mind — perfect, peaceful and powerful, still as God created it, and still in constant communication with God. This is the true teacher. It knows nothing of the challenges the belief in separation has made, and it does not need to be convinced that the way is safe. It simply knows. To reach it, you do not add more thinking; you remove the barriers — the layers of lack, fear and guilt that keep its guidance out of your awareness.

Forgive what you lack

This is the work of Truforgiveness: to forgive within what you believe you lack, and so change your mind from wrong to right. As the veil of separation is withdrawn, the light of Perfect Love is reclaimed — the light that grants truth, trust and totality. You are not talking yourself into confidence. You are cleaning within, so the guidance already there can rise. And when it does, you will be told what to do, what to say, and where to go — not by a louder mind, but by a stiller one.

From the right mind you will be told what to do, what to say, and even where to go.

How the map works

The Needing Guidance Treasure Map works through FAITH — Forgiveness, Authenticity, Introspection, Trust and Honesty — and a set of thirty questions that surface the hidden lack and confusion, layer by layer. You meet each one honestly, then answer it with your own ‘I forgive…’ statement, until the whole map becomes one continuous true prayer. It asks only that you go gently, and never more than one map a day. This is tender inner work, and it deserves your patience.

It begins within

If you are needing guidance, do not look for it in the world before you have looked within. Remove the barriers to the awareness of love’s presence, and let the true teacher — the right mind of completion — guide your every step. You are not lost. You are one forgiveness away from being found.

And may you fear not the shadows, for they conceal the light that saves — and from the right mind, still in constant communication with God, you will know the way, and remember the Self that is perfect, peaceful and powerful.

Much love, peace and Truforgiveness,
