We must all evolve spiritually beyond the constraints imposed by matter.  Be in the world, but not of the world.

FIRST know that you are in the ocean of worldly life, THEN resolve on crossing it.

He who is deluded by relative reality is the worldly person.  He who is aware that it is only relatively real is the spiritual aspirant.

Deep in the sub-consciousness of every living human is a memory, a knowing.  We experience it sometimes as a silent voice speaking to us from somewhere.  The hidden source of our existence tells us in unspoken words "Everyone is going to return to the source, regardless of the path they take because there is no where else to go."  The fact that some happening or event we experience is seemingly temporary or short does not render it meaningless.  Every happening is interconnected and has an interconnected meaning and purpose.
