“The seeker is not broken. Just asleep. And even now, beginning to stir.”
There are moments when you feel far — from clarity, from grace, from your own self.
You question the path. You doubt your progress. You wonder if you’ve gone backwards.
But you are not lost. You are remembering.
Awakening is not a straight line. It circles, stutters, repeats. It burns away illusion layer by layer — and sometimes that burning feels like failure.
But don’t confuse confusion with failure.
You are not doing it wrong. You are doing it deeply.
Each time you stop pretending, you remember.
Each time you sit in silence, you remember.
Each time you pause to feel instead of fix, you remember.
The truth never left you. You are walking the long way home, yes — but home is not gone. It’s simply waiting for you to notice you’ve already arrived.
Sit in silence for five minutes. Repeat inwardly: “I am remembering.” Feel those words in your body. Let them anchor you, not as effort — but as trust.
Write a letter to your past self, reassuring them that nothing has been wasted — it has all been remembering.
Haven R. “I thought I lost myself. I spiraled for months. But through this course, I began to see that the spiral *was* the path. I was just remembering in layers.”
You haven’t failed. You’re unfolding.
