Student: Hi. I would like to feel more centered. I feel like I’m wrestling with a lot of stress, and would like to feel more centered and whole.

*Home base
 
NEBADONIA: Yes, my son. It reminds me of a time when we talked about a spiritual home base. Some have asked, well, where is it? Is it something I go to, or get from, or find, or just let be? That time we answered: it’s all of the above. It depends on how you are, or where you are, you might say, in relationship to it.  A lot of times it just happens, serendipitous moments when you have a little enlightenment, a little satori. Other times it’s something to go after that shows that peace of mind is so valuable above all things. Peace of mind can come about only when you do meet some real problem and resolve it for yourself, even if only to keep it in mind as unresolvable. Other times if you’re really busy, fully engaged, it’s just getting enough time, maybe in the mornings, and sometimes even the evenings; sometime several times during the day--short periods just to let everything possible come to a stop. Just sit there in the middle of whatever it is and pay attention. Maybe you could try to get over any notions of how you should feel, or what this should be. Let it emerge. You do have these spiritual influences in you, my son, and you have your own highest mind where we all meet. Your own enormous spiritual creativity can come up with things totally in concert with us.
