Step Fifty

For those with the eyes to see

Step 50. Today I Will Be With Knowledge.
Be with Knowledge today so that you may have the certainty and the power of Knowledge available to you. Allow Knowledge to give you stillness. Allow Knowledge to give you strength and competency. Allow Knowledge to teach you. Allow Knowledge to reveal the universe as it truly exists, not as you judge it to be.

In your two practice periods, practice in stillness feeling the power of Knowledge. Do not ask questions. That is not necessary now. Do not argue with yourself about the reality of your pursuit, for that is wasteful and meaningless. You cannot know until you receive, and to receive you must trust your inclination to know.

Today be with Knowledge. In your practice periods, let nothing dissuade you. You need only relax and be present. From these practices a greater presence will be recognized, and this will begin to allay your fears.

Here you will find pointers for getting started if this is your first encounter with this practice: Taking the Steps to Knowledge.

January 6, 2013 Round One: I am continuing the Steps with renewed vigor and dedication, since I truly feel I am with Knowledge (I am gaining access to it) and allowing Knowledge to teach me and reveal the universe as it truly exists. This is very real for me today and transcends all else.

August 28, 2014 Round Two: Having the certainty and the power of Knowledge available to me speaks to me today. Not arguing with myself and just allowing myself to relax and be present to Knowledge are what I need to do.

I really felt as though I was with Knowledge today as I practiced. I felt light and buoyant and answers came even before I asked any questions. The Step says, “Do not ask questions.” I did not have to because the answers were already there. It is so freeing and incredibly uplifting when I am not weighed down by gloomy feelings of doubt and confusion. I may still be confused about many things, but I am certain that all will become clear as I continue to reclaim Knowledge and allow myself to be present to its wise promptings. Just accepting that I am still confused and in the dark about many things brings a certain lightness and certainty that I am headed in the right direction. If I keep persevering, remain teachable, and open myself to new awareness, I will eventually get to where I need to go.
August 12, 2018 Round Three: I am to allow Knowledge to give me stillness, strength and competency, certainty. I am to allow Knowledge to reveal to me the universe as it really is, truly exists, not what I judge it to be. I am to practice stillness and feel the power of Knowledge, relax and be present, allow a greater presence to be recognized.
First 30-min practice - in the greenhouse. It was cool and very quiet. I walked through the garden with damp, dewy grass caressing the soles of my bare feet. 4.39-5.09. I am still captivated by the songs Hilary sent me yesterday. Her voice and music are ethereal, not of this world, I was totally transported by their beauty and clarity. I entered the heart flame, the violet fire of healing and cleansing. I was in a tunnel of rainbow colors, the chakra colors, all leading one on from the other. Total quiet and stillness, no images, no messages, some distraction from my thoughts, but I brought myself back to Stillness.
Second 30-min practice - sitting out under the apple tree in the garden.15.03 - 15.33 - some distraction, Sasha walking by, but I made a concerted effort to remain in the violet fire.

Step 317. I Need But Relinquish My Ambivalence To Know The Truth. How simple it is to know the truth when the truth is truly desired. How easy it is to recognize ambivalence and to see its devastating impact upon your life. How simple it is to see the evidence of ambivalence in the world around you and how it undermines the deeper inclinations of all who dwell here. Seek, then, escape from ambivalence, for this is confusion. Seek, then, escape from the burden of constant decision making and choice, for this is a burden. The man and woman of Knowledge need not burden themselves with constant deliberation of what they must do, how they must be, who they are and where they are going in life, for these things become known as each step is anticipated and taken. Thus, the great weight that you carry in the world is released from your shoulders. Thus, you begin to trust yourself and the world. Here peace is possible and assured even for those who are active in the world, for they ca

Step 315. Today I Will Not Be Alone. Today do not be alone. Do not isolate yourself in your fear or in your negative imagination. Do not isolate yourself in your fantasies. Do not think you are alone, for this is a fantasy. Today do not be alone. Realize that those who are with you are not persuaded by your errors or dismayed by your failures, but recognize your true nature and your Knowledge. Those who are with you today love you without exception. Receive their love, for this will confirm that you are not alone, and this will confirm that you do not wish to be alone. Why else would you want to be alone except to hide your pain, your sense of failure and your sense of guilt? These things which are the result of your separation only isolate you further. Yet, today you are not alone. Therefore, choose not to be alone, and you will see that you have never been alone. Choose not to isolate yourself, and you will see that you are part of life already. Confirm this upon the hour a

Step 312. There Are Greater Problems For Me To Solve In The World. Many of your personal problems will be resolved as you give yourself to a greater calling. Some of your personal problems you will need to attend to specifically, but even here you will find that their weight upon you will diminish as you enter into a greater arena of participation in life. Knowledge gives you greater things to do, but it does not overlook any detail of what you must accomplish. Therefore, small details and great details, small adjustments and great adjustments are all included. Nothing is left out. You yourself could not possibly balance your preparation in this respect, for you would not know how to establish your priorities between what is great and what is small. Your attempt to do so would merely push you deeper into confusion and frustration. Be grateful, then, that you have been spared from attempting the impossible for yourself, for what is real is given to you. What you must do is bec
