Do not rage against the unseen for that will result only in fictionalized projections and a waste of energy. Draw inward when mind projects, when rage stirs, and calm the senses. Far better to be ignorant than to have created a world that does not exist. Mind stirred to rage of the unseen or untruth is mind gone haywire!

Attain balance within by turning only to the workings of the self, paying attention to the physical body, attending to breath as cleansing mechanism, and let rage escape like the fires of ancient dragon beings. In this manner will cooling winds provide calming territory in which to wait. For waiting is the only antidote to projected rage. Wait and you will find out what you need to know.

When one is in balance there is no need for compromise, for when in balance one is always in right alignment and thus all decisions are naturally flowing and in alignment as well. Thus, when in balance, compromise becomes a foreign concept, as all experiences fall within a new model for living, that of awareness and lucidity.

A warrior is always aware of each moment’s process and progress, of how to proceed, even on a moment’s notice knowing how to choose and how to determine next actions. Such awareness is honed through attention to mind, to thoughts and whether they are worthy companions or mere distractions.

A warrior steps away from distractions and stays upon the path of heart and right action, thus there is seldom need for compromise. A path of heart offers all the guidance that is needed, for the heart knows only right action.

A warrior does not waste time meandering. A warrior uses time efficiently. And yet a warrior also knows how to relax and have fun. There is no point in being too strict or restricting, nor overly sloppy and unfocused either. A warrior knows these things. And so a warrior’s life is lived in balance, taking into consideration the nature of all things, especially all aspects of being human. And yet a warrior’s focus is always on remaining free, unattached and ready to move on at a moment’s notice. Thus a warrior knows how and when to be serious and how and when to be at ease.

Pain is a signal. Whether physical, emotional or mental it signals that something needs attention, some memory, some yearning, some idea seeks the light. To deal directly with pain is the way of the warrior, for the warrior knows that to ignore pain puts it in a position of power and a warrior does not want anything to have power over them. A warrior does not cave to pain or give it what it wants, except to entice it to reveal why it exists and for what purpose. For the warrior knows that the physical body is a cavern of secrets and that to be free the cavern must be entered, the demons and entities confronted and extracted, so that the cavern of the body may be unburdened. A warrior does not flinch at pain. A warrior uses pain to full advantage so that pain becomes the catalyst, the fire that burns through all illusions and all else that seeks to interrupt the warrior’s journey along the path of heart. For only the fire in the heart is the warrior’s friend. All else is a foe to be dealt with quickly and succinctly, and then the warrior moves on into new life.
