A warrior knows that life is a dream and that everything is meaningful, and yet a warrior also knows that to attach, even to that which is meaningful, creates a problem. And so, a warrior takes only what is necessary from meaningful situations, meaningful insights, and meaningful encounters and moves on. A warrior is always focused on the intent of spirit to experience, detach, and gain and maintain energy for the ultimate journey. For that is the true goal of the warrior, to amass as much energy as possible while in human physical form so that the day of transition into new life, into a new dream, may be without regret.

A warrior seeks knowledge of self and understanding of what it means to be an energetic being capable of controlling the machinations of the mind and the desires of the physical self, capable of using energy wisely so that enough love, kindness, and compassion may be always available for others, while simultaneously channeled forward toward the ultimate goal of life, which is understanding and experiencing the dream of life as an energetic being so that a new energetic dream reality may be achieved upon completion of life on earth.

A warrior knows that everything is contained within the self. A warrior knows that to access the energy of self to the fullest is a process of breaking down the walls that block that energy, destroying the foundations that have been constructed during a lifetime of socializations, judgments, fears, doubts, beliefs, and misinterpretations of reality and life’s experiences.

A warrior knows that to look in the mirror with fully open eyes is to face the false self that has evolved through a lifetime of untruths and false realizations. A warrior knows that the only way to understand true reality is to first destroy the old one and create a new one based on a system that says everything is energy.

And so, a warrior slowly and calmly goes about dismantling the self and the world as they appear, creating a new self and a new world. And then, when a warrior looks in the mirror, a warrior sees nothing except the energy of self and the world as it truly is, a new reality without constraints. Only then is a warrior free to be.

Behavioral patterns are the map to the unconscious, suggesting the route to knowledge of self and deeper awareness of how to resolve issues and advance. A warrior studies patterns of behavior to learn about the human condition, to understand the deeper issues of self that may appear to entice and captivate outside entities that seek sustenance, that seek to feed off human energy. A warrior is always a student of life. In this manner a warrior learns how to navigate through even the trickiest of situations, leaving behind the behaviors that do not advance the journey of life but only inhibit. To study one’s own life patterns, as well as to observe and study others, is to know the self on the deepest level. This is the warrior’s way, always a student but always advancing to new levels of awareness, mastering self and life.

It takes courage to face the self with honesty, to be absolutely truthful, without the constant need to protect and be safe, without the needs of the child self getting the upper hand. To be courageous is the warrior’s way. This requires not only maturity but a commitment to change and growth. To draw from the vast pool of courage is to draw to the self the greater intention of all beings: the quest for wholeness. And so the warrior does not shirk the duty to self in this endeavor but pushes through needs, desires, and wants to find personal truth. Only then will needs, desires, and wants be fulfilled, and only then will they become less necessary, for in the end the warrior discovers that there is so much more to strive for. This too is the warrior’s way. To face the truth of the self is a journey taken alone, for no one else can do this for you. The warrior knows firsthand that this is what it means to be courageous.

Abide within the law of give and take. Observe nature and how flexible it is. Learn flexibility so that your life may be filled with all you need. If you are too contained, without the ability to give and take, your experiences will be limited and your life only marginally fulfilled. Notice how nature gives and takes, fully, with abandon. But notice also that the give and take of nature always has purpose, that one thing leads to another, and so there is always a reason for that abandon though it may not be at first apparent.

Open to the give and take of nature in your own world, naturally, by opening to the gifts from the universe, from the guides and helpers of you all, and see what comes to teach you what it means to give and take with abandon within the laws of nature and the universe. It is not so hard as you might think, but it may take a while to get it right, for in giving and taking there is also the lesson of enough. What is enough? And how do you learn that law? Well, that is another lesson!
