The path ahead

‘Follow me’ implies that we have no detailed map of the path that lies before us. It indicates that we will discover this path with all its twists and turns as we follow the Master. Walking with him or behind him, listening to his voice and not losing sight of him is all that is necessary. And in a strange way, he will not send us where he has not been before. We will never be alone.
