FOLLOWING YOUR OWN PATH, IMPERFECTLY
FOLLOWING YOUR OWN PATH, IMPERFECTLY
“It is better to follow your own path, however imperfectly, than to follow someone else’s perfectly.” it says in the Bhagavad-Gita. The weight of this advice significant, especially in a world that often nudges us toward the well trodden footsteps of others. Yet, if we look closely at those who have left their mark, it’s clear that the road they walked was anything but uniform. Their routes diverge wildly, but their methods share something in common—an unwavering faith in the self.
At the core of any developmental endeavour lies a simple but profound truth: trust. Not in the external markers of success society expects yo to have in your goal posts, nor in the neatly packaged formulas of others, but in one’s own internal compass.
This trust isn’t easy—it demands a journey inward, a meeting with the unpolished, hidden parts of ourselves. But it is here, amidst the uncertainty, that real gold begins to emerge.
To find the practice that aligns with your unique rhythm, is to unlock a process that feels almost alchemical. In a time when the world seems to cry out for fresh perspectives and new ideas, your profoundly honest self is precisely what’s needed.
