"Truth is not a reward for good behavior,
nor a prize for passing some test.
It cannot be bought about.
It is the primary, the unborn, the ancient
source of all that is.
You are eligible because you are,
You need not merit truth.
It is your own.
Just stop running away by running after.
Stand still.
Be quiet."
Nisargadatta Maharaj.
After the years of restlessness, and endless searching. Plagued by a nameless longing. Finally the 'penny drops' and one gets the hint. There is no where to go. Everything that is ever needed, is already present. It was always there and ones very existence could never have been possible if it were not!
'Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10
The journey is a circle, starting from 'nowhere' and ending 'nowhere'.
It is in the quietness that mirrors our true nature, that we can get a sense of the inner truth that always is...
