Are you good enough for transformation? How do you know?

Are you good enough for transformation? How do you know?

Why do you want to transform your life? Just what is it you think is going to be better than what you are experiencing now? Why do you think transformation is what you want? Why do you think that transformation is the answer? And what is the question that you feel transformation will answer? And where did you get your question – did you come up with it yourself or did you inherit it from someone else – an authority perhaps?

What do you intend to transform into? Will you be richer? Taller? Shorter? Have a slimmer body? A better job? Will you look like a super model? Maybe you will have that “perfect” relationship? What is your standard you feel you don’t meet? Is it your standard or did you inherit it from someone else – an authority perhaps?

How will you know that you have transformed when you do? What measuring device will you use? Will you simply satisfy some animal need to feel pleasant or escape pain? Will you achieve some diploma or certificate that tells the world that you have “made it”? Will you wear the robes of authority or possess the trappings of success? What is your measuring device – is it yours or did you inherit your measuring device from someone else – an authority perhaps?

Do you have some purpose in life that you must attain in order to feel that you have succeeded? What is that purpose? How do you know if you are on the path of that purpose? What are your indicators? Can you fake that purpose until you make it? If you look like you have achieved your life purpose does that mean you have achieved it? And once you have achieved your life purpose does that mean you can stop pursuing it? Where did you come up with the idea that you have a life purpose? Did you establish this by yourself or did you inherit it from someone else – an authority perhaps?

What if the journey is the destination? Could it be? And if it were so that the journey of life is the ultimate destination of life, then could you say with surety that transformation is necessary? Do you think you can know the destination of life – where it should go? And where did you get your should, your knowledge? Did you make up your shoulds yourself or did you inherit them from someone else – an authority perhaps?

Are you good enough for transformation? How do you know?

I wonder… and I question… until I’m sure… I don’t know… anything at all…

The beginning of knowing is also the end.
