Ask to become conscious of that which is unconscious. Cultivate intimacy with yourself. Get to know who you are. Face your fears. "Until you make the unconscious, conscious," Carl Jung tells us, "it will direct your life and you will call it fate." Who are you really? We must ask this great question, "Who am I?" Seek an answer. What is this existence into which you have been born? There is discontent. Get to know that discontent. There is impermanence. Get to know that impermanence. Learn to rest in the impermanence. The discovery of self is a continual process. Get to know that process. Learn to rest in that process.
