What Is Our Longing and Our Deepest Motivation

The Parami of determination, effort and motivation is a key to our inner development. It is what propels our journey of transformation, like the effort needed by a snake to wriggle out of its old skin. It is what keeps us climbing up the mountain, but also what helps us to enjoy the small flowers on the path and the amazing view from the top. Sometimes we do need more effort and determination, and sometimes we just need to surrender and no effort at all. But we always need a bit of fire in the heart, the love for liberation.
