… Persistent courage is <strong>The</strong> Way.<br />

Persistence in and of itself is not the key to living in harmony with your True<br />

Self. We are not here to ―push the river‖ by striving to create that which is not in<br />

harmony with our surroundings. And we are also not here to fulfill our own dreams<br />

for ―what is best‖ for the world. Rather, we are here to simply persevere momentby-moment<br />

with small-yet-potent acts of radical Caring. Indeed, this persistence<br />

embodies the entirety of <strong>The</strong> Way in every instant it is engendered.<br />

NOTE: Page 9 represents the deeper meanings of the ―True Name‖ I adopted in 2001 and<br />

then used publicly throughout the time of this book‘s co-creation.<br />

In those moments you are striving for personal gains or the fulfillment of personal opinions,<br />

you are a small speck of flesh lost in the whirling vastness of the Universe. And yet in all the<br />

moments you choose to care for another without reward, you attain complete Stillness within, and<br />

the Universe revolves around you.<br />
