THE SOI-DISANT MYSTIC

     ~finding your own Song

Will you live your Life under your own Authority?

Or, will you let others judge you by limited external standards?

Who are you? Why are you here?

To be self-proclaimed in anything requires confidence. Whether or not that confidence has been earned is a matter of ego, as the proclamation may meet with resistance, for reasons arbitrary or justified.

Let us say you become a Soi-Disant (soi-di·​sant) Mystic. What might this mean? In the study of oneself, to become self-proclaimed means that you have decided to cut out the "middle man" for your immediate learning. It means that you are listening to your inner voice . . . your actual inner voice . . . the individual, yet indivisible identity that comprises the Eternal part of your existence.

It means that you accept both the burden and the responsibility for your own growth. It means that you cannot blame what you have learned or believed before. It means you will not be limited by one set of tenets or other belief systems. It means you will forge ahead, making your own path.

It means you will try your best to be patient, loving and kind--to your self--as you engage the world as a student. And you will engage the Mystic, sometimes perplexing, and quite often, wholly beautiful things that you experience.

This is not to say that you will not or should not consider other ideas, but that you will look for clues in moving from the place you currently occupy, to the place(s) you will occupy next. It means that you will be a Seeker. You will Seek what is obscure, enigmatic, and even esoteric.

You will become a Mystic by becoming a Seeker of Mysteries. You will self-proclaim as a way to validate the seeds of Truth that are inborn to you, acknowledging that the right time to develop wisdom is the moment you decide to.

You will have teachers.

You will be a teacher.

You will Validate and Vilify according to your journey.

And forefront to all of this is your own confidence,

not of the ego type,

but of the exultant

and enterprising Higher Mind.

To know Great All you must know your self/Self.

What better way than to be the Soi-Disant Mystic,

who must wait for no other, and is ever-present?

Blessed Be This Day

This is a Direct Voice Communication from my Tribe,

Spirit Elders who share their wisdoms with me

from the other side of the veil.
