‘It’s time now to walk on the ‘self-side’, the voice said inside of my head. ‘Its time what?’ I said back. ‘
‘Its time to become your own Guru – your own follower – your own healer- your own Doctor – it’s TIME now to become YOURSELF’ said the voice.
I agree. It is time. So many people are offering someone something which resembles salvation but really only offers a false sense of hope. Every day I have someone wanting me to provide them with the health solution for a long and happy life – I can point you in the right direction but you must walk with your own shadow. That’s how it works now. The time for following is over.
There are people with very high media profiles with immense followings. They thrive on it – the followers thrive on it –like a narcotic, always needing their guru fix. There are religious gurus. There are food gurus. There are spiritual and sporting gurus. There are quick fix gurus.
Without doubt there have been great men and great women who have left a legacy of undefinable wisdom.

Becoming self empowered is about opening up your heart to your self. Its about not only believing your are complete in your fullness as a human but also as something even more special – a Heavenly Universal Being – Hu-Man/Woman Being – capable of seeing into darkness and with a myriad of questions, find answers which gladdens the heart and soul, allowing you to grow and feel what its like to be settled and balanced.
In doing so, you DO become a reflection for others to witness themselves within your eyes and aspire to become the YOU they feel and sense within themselves.
A true Guru doesn’t seek followers or admirers. He seeks only the truth which resides within him/herself and reflect it back to all and sundry so that they may feel their own inner guru.
Follow no one except yourself, then you have no one else to blame if you get lost - no one else except yourself to forgive if you mess up. No one else to be angry at if you feel you have been totally misguided and ripped off. It’s very easy to blame others for your misfortune. In fact the world is geared up for that. Always it is looking for a scape goat – some one to blame- someone to hold responsible.
The world is like it is because of YOU!! Face up, own up and take responsibility. Always though, others want to blame the government or the ‘unseen forces’ that seemingly control everything in and around them. Humanity has handed its singular and collective consensual power over to the ‘controllers’ – ‘them’ – ‘they’ – the ones pulling the strings. Well NO MORE!!
Time
to become your own guru and take small steps at a time to reclaim your
power – say NO more often – and if you are confronted with something
‘which crosses your heart’ – SAY NO even harder. Above all be TRUE and AUTHENTIC TO YOUR SELF. Try it and see what happens.
Be fearless in your desire to reclaim your inner Guru!!
All of us are here to reflect back to each other the greatest test of all creation – to BE IN LOVE, without fear. Fear is indeed the absence of love. So bring the presence of LOVE forward NOW by going within for the admiration and love you need to activate your inner Guru. Try it and if at first you don’t succeed – try and try again!!
Its time now to take a walk on the ‘Wild Side’ and become your GuruSelf!!
A true Guru is one that leaves just one set of footprints and they are yours!!
