It must be kept in mind that techniques, constructs, methods, are stepping stones and not the path itself. All too often divisions are cleaved between different groups of spiritual aspirants over approaches. Understand that these discoveries that you make that you wish to share with others are, precisely as you have stated, ways to jump-start. Let those to whom you have given this spark of initial energy the freedom to travel in their own ways. Then you have done the best, and you are allowing for the best to emerge. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-06-17-Worship#Dialogue Elyon]

==Life of Prayer==
Do not be ashamed of yourselves for being human. Do not make the mistake of creating an ideal that is purely spiritual and imagining that you should live in that ideal then chastising yourselves when you fall short. You can, however, through the life of prayer gradually make steps towards the spiritual without abandoning your humanity. The spiritual life embraces the human life, it does not supplant it, it enhances it. - [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=2001-07-07-Prayer#Lesson Ham]
