The correct vibration
The warrior of the light knows
it is impossible to live in a state of total relaxation.
He has learned from the archer that
in order to fire the arrow into the distance, one must keep the
bow taut. He has learned from the stars that only an inner explosion
allows them to shine. The warrior notes that, upon negotiating an
obstacle, the horse tenses its muscles.
But he never mistakes tension for
nervousness.
Discipline and compassion
The warrior of the light always
manages to balance Severity and Mercy. To reach one's dream, one
must have a firm will - and an enormous capacity for giving oneself
up.
Although he has an objective, the
path leading there is not always that which he imagines.
This is why the warrior uses discipline
and compassion. God never abandons his children - but His designs
for Providence are unfathomable, and He builds our road using our
own steps.
Using discipline and deliverance,
the warrior does not allow his gestures to become a routine. A habit
can never command important movements.
Accepting destiny
The moment he starts walking,
a warrior of the light recognizes the Way. Each rock, each bend
welcomes him. He identifies with the mountains and brooks, sees
a little of his soul in the plants, animals and birds of the field.
Then, by accepting help from God and
God's Signs, he allows his Personal Legend to guide him towards
the duties his life has reserved for him.
Some nights he has nowhere to sleep,
on others he suffers from insomnia. He discovers the suffering of
certain lost illusions, and the despair of bestowing too much expectation
on important moments.
"Such is the Way," thinks
the warrior. "It was I decided to take this route."
All his power lies in this phrase.
He chose the path along which he walks, and must not complain.
